Here comes Ultimate mvc3 once again! As you all might already know, 2 more new characters gets officially added to the roster, Doctor Strange and Nemesis T-type! In my previous post of Ultimate mvc3, Strider/Ghost rider/Firebrand and Hawkeye were already confirmed to be in the roster. Now adding 2 more, its a total of 6, which concludes 1/2 of the new character slots in Ultimate mvc3.
Other stuff like character add-ons are also being showcased. For example, Wolverine's massive claw pokes, Chun li's EX spinning kick, C.Viper's lazer beam and Shehulk's lamp post smack! In my opinion, some are good and some are shit. Good ones are Shehulk's lamp post wack, which causes a wall bounce for further combo's etc. Shit ones are Hulk's charge punch, which can be easily dodge by just super-jumping and backstepping. Also, Hulk's charge punch requires time to charge, which totally gives time for opponent to move away or do a hyper. This is entirely my self-opinion, if you disagree, then you can just ignore what i just said. Enough of trash-talking, lets get down to the real stuff!

Starting on the Marvel side, here comes Doctor Strange! I have totally no damn idea who or what is he, never heard of him at all. He may look stupid and old, but when it comes to gameplay, it spells otherwise. In UMVC3, he is able to teleport, set up tiny traps and still able to engage close combat, pretty a potential character. He is definitely a character to be explored, given the number of fancy stuff he is able to do, he can be played in alot of different ways. If played well, he can be really deadly. His normal hyper is pretty good, a OTG kinda similar to Zero's Rekohha. The other hyper i would say is cool, seems to me that it is a counter-projectile hyper. Characters with projectiles, BEWARE!! He does have a level 3 hyper too, awesome nonetheless. Character design is not bad. To be honest, i am kinda looking forward to use him even though that i do not know a single shit about Doctor Strange. His gameplay just seems unique!

Moving on to the Capcom side. Its Resident evil time bitches!!! Here comes Nemesis T-type! Seriously, i would never expect a boss from a game to debut in UMVC3, and somemore a huge ass ZOMBIE!! Capcom, this will be 1 thing that i will applaud you on, making something close to impossible, to possible. Yes, as you all might already guess, he is indeed kind of a far-range hulk or a better sentinel. Having a rocket launcher to conduct range combat, command grab that causes a ground bounce and melee combat that is as damaging as hulk! A potential character indeed. A improved version from sentinel/hulk if you were to ask me. His normal hyper is not bad, a OTG where he shoots 3-4 rockets at you, followed up by a stomp. Looks plain but damaging! His other hyper, where he knocks ANYTHING out of his way just swinging his rotten arm, including knocking out opponents out of their hypers! Incredible super-armor hyper which can even surpass hsein-ko's super-armor activation! Nonetheless, Nemesis is given a level 3 hyper too. A level 3 grab that is unblockable, similar to akuma's raging demon. A disgusting yet monstrous hyper! You can bet i am looking forward to Nemesis, huge yet capable character, awesome much!

That concludes part 2 on Character impressions of Ultimate mvc3. 6 more characters to be announced, get hyped guys! Theres a huge possibility that more will be announced in the upcoming Tokyo game show. Anyway, characters announced have been true if compared to the leaked list. So i guess we can expect Frank west, Vergil etc. to be announced sooner or later. As soon as more characters are announced, i will do my impressions on them, so do look forward to it folks!

Have a nice day!
