yo dude, where is that link to the mvc3 community discord lol ive been unable to find matches against new players and pratice. really good guide! it seems there is a lot of effort put into your content that i highly appreciate
@@heefmvc can you please help me with nemesis's level 3 Nemesis Tron and Haggar all have very difficult level threes that I just can't wrap my head around do you know an easy way to do them because they're level three is a five different directions and I just can't figure out what you actually have to do to do them cuz they're so difficult to do
@@revoslawter3628 dw about it, ive had the game for a year or so and ive only started playing it now. Ive only played 2 online games and i got perfected twice lmao. We'll learn the game eventually, its just gonna take a while (:
I played this game when I was a teenager, because my mom and I love playing fight games with each other, but neither one of us understood a whole lot about the game. Now, over 10 years later, I decided to brush off my copy and actually learn how to play. This is going to be a great resource, and I commend you for making this video.
I've been playing this game ever since I was a little kid! These past few years I've been really getting into the FGC, and I knew IMMEDIATELY I had to get good at one of my favorite games as a kid! Thanks for all these tips!
After 11 years of hesitation, I recently decided to finally try out UMVC3. It has so many mechanics but this tutorial really helped me to understand them all better. Thank you for making this!!
I’ve played MvC3 for the majority of my life and I’ve never felt like actually learning this game. Everything feels so daunting. So glad this video is showing me the way 🙏🏽
All I needed to have fun back in 2011 was the ABCS magic series. This game taught me about special motions and notation and all sorts. In old fighting games like mvc and mvc2, I thought special moves came out randomly when you spun the stick around and hit a button. Turns out, it's more nuanced than that. This was a lot of fun. Thanks for the guide.
I been waiting on this to come out and I can say this is a very well thought out and well crafted video especially for the first episode. Really nice job Heef. Good concise information and easy to understand in a video that's not to long or too short. I do have just a couple things to add that I think would be helpful advice: -For dashing and pushblocking you can use LM but it's important to note that you can also use MH and even LH if you want because of how option selects work for you (and even against you like with Chris flamethrower or Strange counter). Although I'm sure you'll cover that in a later video. Some people may want to use either LM or MH in certain scenarios they'll encounter in the future. -Up TACs will also preserve your bounces in a combo in case you need to use bounces for the next character coming in that doesn't have a practical TAC/if you're not well versed in TACs yet. Since side TACs and down TACs do a wall bounce and ground bounce respectively you can always use up TAC to save that. However if you previously used a bounce in a combo and then do side or down TAC, the TAC will still perform the bounce as it's set to always do it. -Don't forget also that TACing in a character is a great way to get a character in because TACs do NOT take away red health whereas a hard tag WILL take away all your red health. Same applies to DHCs; red health will stay. This difference is crucial for knowing what options to use to tag back in characters. If your character is bleeding but you need to have them in a TAC or a DHC is probably better than hard tagging and coming in with no health left. also just in general time cards can help in the future to jump to different topics. With the increase in the playerbase and the rise of Parsec, videos like these are really valuable and I'm hoping to see more in the future as time goes on!
The praise means a lot to me, thank you. I was a little worried to put this out, but I'm happy the reception has been so positive. I appreciate the extra information. Some things definitely fell through the cracks as I was making this, forgot to talk about red health completely, for example. Definitely some good knowledge here. I just added chapters, hopefully that helps. I didn't know how to do it as I posted it, just fixed it now. And yeah, I think so! Really hoping people get something out of this series, I want as many people to get into Marvel as possible!!!
@@heefmvc Thanks for this dude! I play lots of Tekken, so guides like this are great, allows me to mash buttons online while I have some idea of what's going on
I just bought MVC3 since it was on sale. I never played ANY MVC games and I have alot of experience in fighting games. Trails and everything is a joke to me but the fighting in this game is so chaotic and fun. I actually am enjoying it and your video is what making it alot more easier. I'm even alot more glad you have closed captions. I'm deaf so I always hope for subtitles on those type of videos. I appreciate that from you.
This was randomly on my recommended list. This is well made! Been playing this game for 8 years and I still watch stuff like this. You got yourself another sub :)
Oh wow, thanks so much! I really appreciate it! I'll do my best to make this series into something special! Glad to see it was in the recommended list. Really hoping new players are able to find this!
Without the directions onscreen I wouldn't have been able to tell how to perform a snapback, "quarter circle forward" makes more sense honestly. The rest of the info was really digestible and easy to follow for a fighting game newcomer, appreciate the vid
I’ll keep that in mind, honestly using quarter circle forward would probably be best when explaining inputs from now on. I’ll throw the inputs on there as well. Thanks for the feedback, hoped it helped!
Can't believe bro not only implanted the thought of playing marvel into my brain months ago, and now im reading up on his scripts on how to play. godspeed heefnoff
Hey man, just wanted to say this video is really good and I'm already looking forward to more episodes when possible! I mainly watched the game for basically the entire games lifecycle up until now, so seeing a high quality guide come out pushed me to finally play the game I love LOL thank you!
You have no idea how much that means to me, thank you! I’m gonna try my best to maintain/improve the level of quality. I’ve always said, if I can get even one person into this amazing game, I’m happy. I’ll try and get the next episode out before the new year!
Thank you!! I appreciate this so much. It's good to finally have a guide series goes into detail about things that isn't like 7 years old. I will definitely be catching all the videos. Marvel Lives rekindled a love for the game that I haven't felt since around 2014, and I know this will help me become a solid player ✊🏿
The black hand emoji makes me laugh, glad you feel represented but I always wonder if Asians then use the yellow 'original' emoji colour to represent themselves. Sorry for the politics, we are all brothers in the FGC, but the skin tone emojis make me go 'oh a black guy wrote this' 👌🏻 (A white dude) much love tho no hate ❤️❤️❤️😘💕
New player in the year 2024 😅 just wanted to say thank you for this guide video. I used to play around this game when I was younger before ultimate on the ps3, never understood a single thing about it. I’m glad so many of the mysterious have been unveiled 😂 thank you
thanks for the guide, 11 years later and i finally can play the game, got interested again for the evo hype while waiting for all the new games. 11 years ago i was a teen who couldnt buy the game so i never bought it. LESS GO
Just got UMVC3 and this is a fantastic guide to get the fundamentals and start learning. I was shocked to find there weren't any tutorials ingame and my only "grasp" to understand a bit of the game was the Missions for the characters I want to try out. Also very surprised to see you have a YT channel Heefnoff, your passion for fighitng games always show in chat, and on streams when playing others.
Hey thank you so much, glad you found the channel! Yeah I love fighting games a lot. Been meaning to revisit this tutorial series but stuff always comes up. Might try and get back to it soon!
This is a pretty good video, just a minor correction: Hard tagging is not just holding any of the assist buttons. Hard tags are tags that happen during a combo. Raw tags are the ones that happen outside of combos. For those who don't know, raw tagging MIGHT be a great thing to do in situations where you have no idea what's going on. Just keep in mind that this is a double edge sword. It is as good as it can be bad. This is a great start for beginners for sure, keep it up!
Hey, thanks so much! My bad if I got that wrong, I hadn't heard the term used in that context specifically. I was under the impression that hard tags/raw tags were the same thing. I really appreciate the compliment, I'll do my best to keep going!
@@heefmvc yeah, trust me, people use them interchangeably so often that it has lost its meaning for the most part. Great production quality on the video, and pretty clean cute voice over work. I like this a lot. Hope the beginners enjoy this. This is one less video I won't have to tackle myself 😂😂😂😂
Just got into this game and I loved it! Tho I didnt understand the mechanics at first this video helped alot! I look foward to your character guides and other upcoming guides! You have a great voice and you made everything very clear to follow! The pictures showing what 1,6 etc and the control layout reccomendations helped me follow along tremendously! I’ll definitely watch ur other guides !
I am glad people still play this game i only wish i got in to it sooner but here i go this helps alot wish the discord invite was still valid but im still jumping in head first 🙃
I just bought the game and haven’t played in about 11 years so I remember nothing. Your videos have already helped me a lot with understanding the game and getting better. I hope to see more in the future!
Hey thanks so much, that's very kind of you! I'll be posting episode 2 pretty soon (school has been keeping me VERY busy) but in the meantime, I know there are a few good resources to help you get started! Here's a good general one: srk.shib.live/w/Ultimate_Marvel_vs_Capcom_3 I personally find videos more helpful, but here's a collection of tons of info throughout the game's lifespan. Hope it helps! Thanks so much for playing Marvel 3!
What the HELL i played this game hundred of hours and i learned so much from this video ! Even the TAC different effects i was completely unaware of it ...
I got done dirty by my roommate after we both started to watch RussianBadger and Lythero play UMvC3, I knew some stuff solely from watching, but this game is definitely harder than it looks, so these guides are really useful, we're both absolute trash at the game, he's just innately good at picking up games and doing crazy stuff right out the gate, I on the other hand need stuff like guides and such, hard to call yourself a rival when all you do is get bodied and win once every like 10 matches. Awesome work, gonna be using these guides to finally even the playing field with my roommate >:3
Never was into MvC. Played 1 a bit way back but just wrote it off. Didn't realize this entry had depth to rival AC+R. Nice! 25k Evo money will be mine ez.
Just got this for my Steam Deck. Such a deep fighting game. Thank you for this overview. I'm sure I'll be checking out your character, X factor, and any other guides.
This was a very informative video as a new player to this series and fighting games in general. It was a little to much for me to handle but I will get the hang of it soon
Great video! Looking forward to the rest of the series. Would have been awesome back in 2011 and throughout UMvC3 run. But great info for new players and I can't wait to see what I learn. You've got a sub!
I know i'm super late but MY GOD MAN! AMAZING VIDEO! I wish I saw this video in my early years of playing this game! Seriously Heef, You've done an amazing Job on this! Can't wait for the next one! FRICKIN BRILLIANT!!!!!!!
subscribed, I've played the game casually for a while but I've been wanting to play it competitively since I've been on a major fighting game kick lately. I mained Zero, Ammaterasu, and Phoenix Wright, but I might drop one or two of them. I'm keeping Ammaterasu, mostly because I just really like Okami
Sounds cool! If I had to pick for you, I think I'd go with Zero/Doom/Amaterasu. Zero and Doom are strong together, and Doom/Ammy have some REALLY cheap stuff, too! Stick with it!
@@heefmvc thanks for the advice! I'll try messing around with doom to try to figure him out. Any particular assist I should use with him? I know Ammy mains like using Cold Shot and Zero mains tend to lean towards two of his assists, is there one that doom players tend to use?
@Heefnoff I was kidding myself saying I was going to run She Hulk on point instead of Spider-Man who is my all time favorite marvel character so, I decided to make spider man my point character which is a good thing I haven’t gotten too deep into learning the game with she hulk on point because, that would have confused me if I decided to switch to my boy Spidey any later in the learning process.
Honestly i thought id be horrendous at this game but in the practice mode without any knowledge i already was doing 8 hit combos into switches... all i can say is IM FEELING MOTAVAITED
Thanks a lot! I will add this to my favorites and I also subscribed to your channel. I’m not sure what other kinds of videos you post but it’s bound to be good lol.
🔥🔥🔥👍Awesome vid! It’s a little intimidating trying to learn the mechanics in this game, especially after seeing how dominant players can be with juggling and infinite combos. But it’s just such a beautiful and exciting game , I always would play it in arcades and had a vague idea of what was happening but as it turned out I had very little knowledge. This is such a helpful video, definitely gonna watch the full series/ all you have done on this subject/ game., And you def got a new sub from it! Keep up the awesome vids, enthusiasm and coherent sharing of this knowledge. Can’t wait until I can really do what I want to in this game and excited for the growth and journey! The FGC is the best community in the gaming scene IMHO. Thank you again for the informational vid!🙌👊💥✨😃
@Heefnoff I definitely won’t be doing any online matches until I get a good understanding of the mechanics in training mode though as I feel if I don’t have a good handle on the mechanics and what I’m doing I’ll just be inadvertently setting myself up for failure. Even though I understand losing but, not knowing how to improve from my losses because I don’t understand the deeper mechanics of a fighting game always sucks.
@Heefnoff thank you for this video I come from a NRS title background when it comes to fighting games but, I happen to love marvel characters and this game looks like a hell of a lot of fun but, I’ve always sucked at tag fighters because, I mostly come from a 1 on 1 fighting game background mostly consisting of NRS titles like Injustice and Mortal Kombat however, I played those very casually and am just now getting in MK11:Ultimate with my friend competitively and I want to learn this game on the side by myself to be exposed to more types of fighters besides just one on one fighters and I have played this game casually in the past with my uncle but was never very good even though it was fun and I want to get really good at it so I will definitely be looking forward to more videos in this series.
