"LORE ACCURATE VERGIL STOMPS MARVEL FOR $50 AND SOME DRIP" | Kip Reacts to TheRussianBadger 

God if you enjoy Badger you'd love the Lythero videos. Imagine a fighting game focused[to a degree] Badger.

I would recommend Lythero for a future video. Him and his Shenanigoons are sorta like Badger, but slightly more focused. They're a kinda tipsy driver swerving down the highway to Badger's passed out after crashing into a concrete wall at 100+ mph.

Kip, Vergil is so valuable in high level marvel, he's been a part of every evo winning team since launch in 2013 iirc. Put him, Morrigan, and Doom in the hands of a high level player and watch the bodies stack.

From what I know, Vergil is a top tier character because even at his worst he's A tier. He has SO many options on how to win an exchange, plus his Yamato deletes all projectiles

I've said this when Renegades React did a reaction of this, I will say it again here; Not enough people do reactions of Lythero's edited stream videos he posted on his channel, they are drug free, but are still absolutely hilarious to watch, his sponsorship reel has similar energy to Internet Historian and TheRussianBadger here.

Yeah, Vergil is just that broken, it's because he's a quick fighter, so setting him up with the X-Factor just makes him even more broken, cause it amplifies his speed. There's videos of people having Vergil as the last fighter when the other two have been knocked out, and Vergil is a huge clutch when you know what you're doing. He's literally like his Devil May Cry counterpart, overpowered as hell, but fun to play as.

It's a good thing that they never added Nero otherwise they'd have to make him the "Saitama" of the game. If you pick him there's just a timer at the bottom. '30 seconds to Devil Trigger'. And if you have either Dante or Vergil out, the timer shaves 10 seconds. Y'know, gotta make it lore accurate.

I love watching Lythero and Garys’s content, it’s just good old shenanigans. Lytheros videos are definitely worth watch, and Gary is in almost every single one.

Watching the whole week of streams leading up to the tournament was incredible, and the tournament itself was nonstop action! Also, Lythero WILL be back in the next Badger vid. It's R6: Siege and he was nailing peeks and wallbangs along with the rest of the crew in the recording streams.

Kip, if you were to make a tier list for every UMvC3 character, that goes from S-D, if you put Virgil on that tier list, he’d be in a tier above S just called “Virgil”

I'm seriously impressed by Badger's visible improvement from this video and his last, those scene transitions at 0:57 (sorry for the possible grouse jumpscare) overstimmed my ADHD but I still managed to understand what's happening. It's a hood classic in the making

20:49 "That's a lot of input, to be fair." Geese Howard: *laughs in pretzel motion*

I highly recommend Lythero’s vids. Yeah, there’s lots of fighting game stuff but he has more than that for variety purposes and it’s all HILARIOUS. From Mario Kart, to Smash Bros, to Dragonball FighterZ, and all the way to now with him hanging out with Badger. Him and his friend group is considered “The Shenanigoonz”. This same man has gathered the attention of multiple animators even though he was an editor himself in the past plus….PET BUNNIES!

To explain fighting game inputs, imagine that you're using an analog stick whose directions corresponds to a phone number set-up. 5 is in the middle, 1 in the bottom left and 9 in the upper right. A quarter circle motion is usually either 2-3-6 or 2-1-4. A "dragon punch" motion is 6-2-3. Vergil is Number 1 character, SS tier alongside Brawl Meta Knight. He has complete control over the game and is only held back by a low health pool. His sword range is crazy, he has powerful Supers, and he has long range attacks that eat almost anything. He also is one of the few characters with a Level 5. So there are Level 1 Supers and most characters have a Level 3 Super. In an attempt to balance Vergil, UmvC3 locks Vergil's Level 3 Super behind his Level 1 transformation Super, meaning it costs 4 bars to use. However, the transformation also makes Vergil stronger and faster, which can be combined with X-Factor, and thus makes his combos even more deadly before finishing it off with his Level 3. Except Vergil can then land another hit after his Level 3 that will combo into his Level 1, which amounts to Vergil having a Level 5 Super. Edit: if you want full context on the Hawkeye vs Vergil joke, Hawkeye is a keep away character whose favorite move is to randomly Level 1 Super which hits practically instantly, something dangerous to characters on low health and thus quite dangerous against the low health Vergil. So who wins that fight is entirely dependent on who gets the most random touches that gets converted into killing blows.

This video makes the _perfect_ excuse to recommend Lythero's videos! Starting with the Dragonball FighterZ Lobby Shenanigans, they're all hilarious and the editing only gets better over time. As it turns out, watching a bunch of pros fuck around in a lobby is pretty fun.

Fun fact: Phoenix Wright is broken in that his X-Factor is always a level 3 due to a bug. Still a low to mid tier despite this.

33:00 Vergil was almost in everyone’s team during the last Evol we had and if you didn’t have him your throwing

Lythero is one of the best fighting game youtubers, highly recommend, imagine if you combined Max0r and Russian Badger, with a lot more impressions.

Lythero's "Lobby Shenanigans" videos for "Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom" and "Dragon Ball FighterZ" are worth a watch, especially the latter if you want to see how cracked of an Android 16 player Lythero is.

bro i went to combobreaker (midwest regional tournament for fighting games) and went 0-2 got completely blasted by my opponents but after they were the coolest dudes i've talked to in gaming communities they were giving me advice they were like don't worry everyone goes 0-2 in their first major tournament and were just super supportive and it made me want to come back even though i got my ass beat in the first day, moral of the story is people who take fighting games seriously are pretty chill irl and always willing to give you advice

High level Tekken is like chess but without turns, just move who the hell u want

HIGHLY recommend you check out Lythero’s stuff. He, Gary and IHeartJustice play together ALL the time. For marvel stuff, Lobby Shenanigans is perfect, but they also do stuff in Dragonball FighterZ

"Comeback of the century, unlike my father" was a solid line from Badger's chat

Talking about veteran players teaching new players just makes me think of deep rock and how much everyone loves teaching new players

Quarter circles are for moves like the Hadouken. Those plus half circles and dragon punches are the most common fighting game input movements and thus, should be practiced the most by beginners.

31:25 If you'll recall, Heavenly and Herboku are the ones that main Fencer in EDF 4.1, so you KNOW they've got some skills.

I'm surprised he didn't talk sbout the little "war" he was having with Shylily about the selling of their flavors. Seeing them interact with each other trying to negotiate as to who gets how much money off of their flavor more and whose flavor's sellings stays on top is surely something you'd say "I need this" Kip. Heavenly can get them together since he knows about Vtubers enough.

The Foot Dive bit reminds me of the parody fighting game Divekick from 2013. Every attack was just spamming divekicks and the definitely had a character that parodied Dr Doom’s foot dive.

As someone who's grown up playing so many fighting games. Yes we are different but we all share our love of crayons and circles xD

47:57 "you and your crew" bro. its just him doing all this and thats crazy

35:31 the move is called Starfall and it's really valuable because its pretty unique. Most characters in UMVC3 have a an aerial ender that is vertical, such as Dante with his Helm breaker and Haggar with the metal pipe. Vergil, however, has BOTH Starfall and Helm Breaker which allows him to move forward at the endof air combos and have more potential for attack instead of just going straight down.

Vergil Is not Broken, he's Lore accurate.

I posted this on Badger's video too but I might as well post it here. I had tons of trouble for years with Z inputs because no one would explain it properly. It's just forward, quarter circle forward. Ignore whatever the "actual" input is in the move list.

I do recommend watching animation compilations of Lythero.

Well, Vergil is the most versatile character in this game, he can be an offensive, defensive or support character (mostly Attack) His main weapon Yamato can destroy any kind of attack and his skill Summoned Sword can be both offense or defense tool (block attack and some Hyper Combo attack) The most dangerous thing about Vergil is Combo+ X Factor+ Devil Trigger. X Factor already buff your attack power and speed and Devil Trigger also buff your attack power and speed and make some attack easier to hit the enemy X Factor help you regain any red portion of your health bar and Devil Trigger literally heal Vergil's HP. You can say that Vergil is a all-grounder character

I carved out my skills in the combat arenas of Injustice and Smash Bros wiiU and carried them with me as a part of my soul.

I used to play fighting games competitively unless I fractured my neck.. umvc3 always depresses me because it reminds me of how much dexterity I've lost /Edit/ Spencer has some shenanigans

Omg i love garys muscleman voice- he uses that when he plays og broly in dbz fighters

Badger be like: "What crew?". He does everything by himself besides recording with his friends. which makes it even more insane

"If you're good at fighting games, you are truly built different" I don't mean to brag but... I have literally been playing as Scorpion in Mortal Kombat since the first game and I still dominate to this day. Don't get me wrong, I still lose depending on my opponent... but, I'm pretty damn good at making it hard for anybody to win lol.

Lythero and Badger are like the top 2 RU-vidrs who make me genuinely burst out laughing Incase you wanna watch him Best Lythero Vid I can Recommend is Dark Shenanigoonz vs Sonic Heroes. They just straight up put Sonic characters into Dragon Ball Fighters and it's the funniest shit.

I truly recommend watching Lythero's Lobby shenanigans and other videos he has, you don't need deep knowledge on the game or fighting games in general to understand and have fun watching it

25:50 I watched a former FGC commentator react to this vid and she literally called it a 'stupid check' or a 'stupid dq' I can't remember which but like damn image failing something called a stupid check XD

I actually know who Lythero is because of his F-Zero streams. I love his F-Zero stuff (mostly because it's my favorite racing game franchise and the series gets so little love) but he seems like a super cool guy overall.

11:47 *hears mention of vault of glass* *PTSD* THAT SHIT WAS SO HARD BRO

God this was a video I would recommend looking up some Lythero videos cause god damn they are funny. Most notably look up some lobby shenanigans Also as a Korean myself, the Korean back dash works. How else do you think the Korean war ended in a draw?

I would 100% recommend Lythero's videos to you, his Marcel v. Capcom and Dragon Ball Fighterz vids are ones I constantly go back to as background noise or when I'm having a rough day and just need a good laugh. Just a warning that some of the videos can be a bit on the long side, but they are definitely worth watching if you have the time.

Every time Badger drops a vid, I get excited for the Kip react

You should totally watch lythero’s shenanigoons take on a shadow raid boss, I have not laughed that hard in months when I first watched it

God I need you to Watch Lythero.

Here's the thing Kip, you can be decent at Vergil and still win games with him ALONE.

If you like MCV3 and are more into anime, BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle is fairly similar mechanically. It has a similar comeback mechanic called resonance that gives you more and constantly regenerating meter (on top of certain characters having built-in comeback abilities), instakill finishers, and features characters from like 5 separate franchises including Persona, BlazBlue itself, Under Night, and RWBY. There is a very clear meta, but it's fun when you both players are on similar skill levels and they both aren't spamming beam or projectile attacks.

You are going to LOVE Lythero's videos.

i would like to point out that heavenly, as good as he is with vergil, wasn’t using his full potential. why? no summon swords no lunar phase no round trip no tricks no judgement cuts if you thing vergil was broken from what you see with heavenly, take a look at what other players can do with his whole moveset

oh wow I love the new model! super cute ❤

Time to start watching Lythero boy.

Also: Kip, there was a glitch that caused Doom to face the camera

Lythero is hilarious bro, start with his lobby shenanigans

Beans? BEANS!? BEEEAAANNNSSS!?!?!? I love beans

Yeah this was a great video, still have no idea how this game works but it was very fun to watch

He Indeed IS lore accurate

it's alright if you're not good at fighting games, just pick a character and have fun mashing buttons getting good can come later this is from someone that started fighting games like in 2010 with 0 experience back then and I turned out okay. The biggest obstacles tend to be the players rather than the game mechanics tho. Fighting games at this point had been streamlined enough where they dont ask you the moon in terms of execution except for a few characters here and there

I highly recommend Lythero's videos. His Lobby Shenanigans and Boss Raid vids are great. Plus his Left 4 Dead 2 vid.

Lythero and his Lobby Shenanigans in MVC3 and then later playing with DBFZ with his friends and the Shenanigoons is a great fighting game content creator. He also had a recent video with Maximillian Dood (another big name in the FGC) as a guest and its great. He is definitely worth checking out.

The collab we never knew we needed. Also, zyzx_ is THE homie.

I FUCKING LOVE OKAMI ITS AN AZING GAME

You should give Lythero's videos a try, they're all great.

Look at the numpad. 236 = quarter circle front

I _highly_ recommend lythero's videos, if you want somewhere to start, pick a game that he's done a "Lobby Shenanigans" video for and go from there

I use Microsoft Edge Canary. I am also a high-end tekken and sf player playing on a square gate, we are built diff.

Btw Lythero after teaching badger he then proceeded to SOLO everyone back to back.

Kip, watch literally any Lythero, he is funny as hell

2:40 and Kiwi is RIGHT! Justice for Kiwi!

2:26 THIS MF EATING BEEEAAANS!!!

who needs to wait for Badger to drop the SwawS mod when you can make it yourself

I've watched Lythero's Shadow the Hedgehog videos and vods, they're amazing

Wesker is perfectly fine in UMvC3. Solid A tier. Not as good as he was in vanilla Marvel 3 (pre-Ultimate) but still solid. You can run him and Vergil (might be a bit meter starved tho because both of them are kinda meter hungry, especially Vergil). Honestly you can cook with any character in this game (even Hsien-Ko) it's just easier with characters like Vergil or Phoenix.

For context Vergil is to MvC3 and U:MvC3 as Meta Knight is to SSB:Brawl. Dude is borked as fuck to fight against, and if they're a pro player just put the controller down, walk to make dinner, eat it and come back that match was decided already.

14:53 don’t mind me I’m saving this

You've definitely gotta check out Lythero after this. Specifically some of his "Lobby Shenanigans" videos in Dragon Ball FighterZ. The older ones are peak comedy and the more recent ones add mods to the mix. They're amazing.

100% watch Lythero he even has custom animations to go with his more recent videos especially watch his Dragon Ball Z Fighters

This mf'er eatin' BEANS!

If beans don’t belong in chili, then call me a heretic, for my beans will be in my chili until I die!

The soundtrack of this game is absolutely GOATED. My favorite theme being Ryu

Vergil's not broken, he's lore accurate

Love your videos, and your eggs are kiwi yes beans go in chili what type of beans red kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, beef, pork and chicken one can of diced tomatoes rotelle rotelle impossible 2 tablespoons of Tabasco sauce, 2 tablespoons of Sriracha 2 tablespoons of black pepper, cayenne powder and of course chili powder small teaspoon salt. Put it in the slow cooker 6 to 8 hours. You got a chili Don’t forget to put the green chilies jalapeños the habanero pepper with seeds removed and there is a beginners chili

Who wins? A human with the powers of a spider able to shoot webs? Metal pipe

A Destiny reference? Didn't expect that, nice.

I will stick to what I know and that is Budokai 3. I tried FighterZ and it’s too Street Fighter like for me to understand those dam circle motions for attacks. Also I love the constant after image fake outs & the 2.5 D arenas in Budokai 1, 2, & 3.

To be fair, whilst I enjoy beans in my chili, traditionally it does not contain them.

If you install his opera mod it’s funny for about the first 30 seconds but after that it’s just kinda a nuisance.

I'm not really in to the whole fighting game thing (except watching some), but from what I've heard Vergil is the second most powerful character in this game. Only Zero (from MegaMan) is higher.

20:50 god I hate how fighting games illustrate that input cause its not what that is at all and I dont blame badger getting confused by it the motion is just right, down, and back to the right again To visualize it better, look at your keyboard's keypad, imagine 1-9 as your eight directions and 5 as the stick in the center. For example, a standard quarter circle is 236; a DP motion (like for deadpools hyper combo) is simply 6323 (so a backwards quarter circle that goes back where it came, but stops halfway). Its basically a flick of a wrist.

2:27 B E A N S ! ! !

their gonna get bluetooth choked

Just curious for the people part of the fighting game community how odd is it seeing people outside the community talking about how hard the mechanics are and there pretty much fused into your muscle memory?

i honestly thought it was like a bracket reset lol

As a Texan, I don't hate beans, but I agree with Kiwi, they do not belong in chili.

When you brought up destiny I deadass just nodded with respect to a fellow guardian

Team Trenchcoat for the win! Dante, Wesker, and ofc Vergil!
