A new Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Showdown Spotlight for Super-Skrull and Viewtiful Joe was added by Sumoslamman to Marvel.com. This features the same things you'd come to expect from past articles, including bio and history information along with a breakdown of their play styles. Here's a cut.
Super-Skull's Play Style: Skrull is a jack-of-all-trades. He can rush you down, pulp you from mid-screen with his Tenderizer and snipe you out of the air from almost a full screen away with his unblockable command grab. Quick normals, great specials and the ability to OTG into Level 1 and Level 3 hyper combos make Super-Skrull a force to be reckoned with.
Viewtiful Joe's Play Style: Joe is a pixie character: low on health, big on speed and combos. He doesn’t do much damage and his diminutive limbs lack reach, but his Red Hot Kick gets him in fast. Once he’s in close he can slow his enemies' movement speed to a crawl with one hyper and pound on them in fast-forward with another. Also, being one of the shortest characters in the game, he ducks under quite a few normal attacks, forcing enemies to adapt their battle plan accordingly.
I have the feeling that Hiropon would EXCEL with Super-Skrull. I can just visualize some mean stuff.
The thing I love about Viewtiful joe is that He is a reflection of us fanboys and how we would react if we saw our favorite heores.
The lucky Guy gets to be alongside his favorite Anime heroes in Tatsunoko vs Capcom and now his favortie Comic book heroes in Marvel Vs Capcom.
Joe will most likely be underrated, I cant wait to own people who underestimate him >:)
Plus he's a PERFECT Counter to Sentinel since he can slow him down and just keep hitting him since he's a big target
Joe big on speed? Idk about that he walks real slow.
IF that's legit I'm sure it's just future DLC. I doubt any characters besides Galactus will be announced before launch. Maybe we'll get Jill and Shuma trailers by then though! BTW I'm hoping that's legitimate early test footage.
Not to be completely off the subject but thanks again to Sumoslamman for an entertaining read!
they make joe sound like a faster serverbot thats awesome
Joe can totally stand toe to toe with Super Skrull. Although Skrull is stronger and very powerful, Joe can control and alter time to his will making Skrull look like a toad with a rock on his back. Even if he can't out right defeat Skrull, he will most likley annoye him enough to flee and fight another day. Joe is also very hard to hit because of his moves.
And forget invisibility, with his time abilities he could slow time down enough to see where S.Skrull is much easier.
(Joe wins against this X-men reject of course.)
Thrilled about Bison, he should be in this game standing along side Dr. Doom and Wesker. Thanks for sharing our link.
Viewtiful Joe owns Super-Skull! :D
