Maximilian Dood is like a fighting game promoter and hype man, he's pretty good at fighting games too, give his channel a look, he's got great content.
@@theduckgoesmoo as others in this thread have said I highly recommend Max's boss rage series, he takes on fighting game bosses on the hardest difficulty! Some range from ok to...well to quote max himself during his akuma boss rage "WHO THE FUCK WOULD MAKE A GAME LIKE THIS!?".
You know Fighterz gameplay? You can largely owe it to this game. The Marvel vs Capcom series pretty much pioneered team-based fighting games. 4:19 Deadpool has a teleport move. But he can only use it twice in a row. If you use it again, his belt will short out and deal damage to him, after that you can use it two more times. What he was doing was somehow cancelling the shortcurcuit into itself, causing the animation to loop. 9:24 Yeah, they're using mods. In normal gameplay, each character has 6(8?) colors, and one DLC costume that these guys modded over. 11:34 That's Shuma-Gorath. He's pretty much an Elder God and a minor nemesis of Dr Strange. Weirdly enough, the dude's been in almost every entry of the MvC series. Capcom loves characters with unorthodox fighting styles. 16:04 Yeah, this game was pretty hype in the fighting game community back in the early 2010s. Lee even mentioned they're playing it at EVO this year, which is pretty much THE premiere fighting game tournament. 20:09 X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine who he decided to take under his wing. 38:11 That's the Judge from the Phoenix Wright games, in a rare instance of him actually doing his job correctly. 40:08 That is what is known as a wavedash. It's for moving across the stage faster by cancelling and repeating dashes.
Maximillian Dood videos really helped me appreciate fighting games in general. If you wanna look into his videos there's a lot to choose from like 'Rate the Super/Finishers' 'The Games That Made Me' 'Fighting History' 'Boss Rage' and the video series that introduced me to him and is UMVC3 related 'Assist Me' Fun Story: I actually had a chance to fight Max in UMVC3 once. It went great, no issues whatsoever, I really held my own against him... he whooped my ass.
Some of his Legacy series can be good watches too, going through all, or at least the main beats, of particular franchises in the lead-up to a new release in said franchise. You don't necessarily need to know much about how to play them in order to enjoy them, they're still plenty informative and entertaining.
I just love the utter confusion on display by merely everything single thing in this video. For context: Marvel vs. Capcom came about during the 90s when Marvel (who were struggling financially due to the speculator boom, which is a whole can of worm of itself) licensed off their IP to movie and game studios. Capcom was commissioned to make a few arcade fighting titles which included X-Men: Childre of the Atom, which led to X-Men vs. Street Fighter, which led to Marvel Super Heroes, which led to Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, which finally led to Marvel vs. Capcom. The vs series remains a fan favorite amongst fighting game players with Marvel vs. Capcom 2 being the most sought-after game in the franchise, still going for more than full price for a used copy. 3 was the last in this great saga, with the Ultimate edition being rereleased on the current-gen console to collide with a somewhat inferior reboot. Chris Redfield is the main protagonist for the first and fifth Resident Evil X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine Viewtiful Joe is a movie-goer who get sucked into a Movie Land and became a superhero Amaterasu (also known as Okami Amaterasu) is a sun god in the form of a white wolf Pheonix Wright is a character created by Capcom who's a lawyer that starred in 5 in a 6 game franchise Taskmaster is a mercenary with a photographic memory who copied moves us other Marvel heroes This game is played professionally in the fighting game tournement EVO almost yearly
Marvel vs Capcom is a fighting crossover between Marvel Comics and video game characters created and owned by Capcom. These include: -Megaman -Resident Evil -Street Fighter -Devil May Cry -Phoenix Wright -Darkstalkers -Ghosts n' Goblins -Viewtiful Joe -Okami -Etc...... In particular, MvC 3 was the first game in the series in over a decade. It got almost, if not, just as much hype back then as Smash Ultimate did a few years ago. The episodic trailers for the game are still Amazing, and they're worth reacting to if you ever get time.
10:34 well no need to imagine. I got you. (This was typed right after Death Battle Season 10 Episode 2 so it may eventually be outdated) Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 has 50 characters. Out of all the characters in the game, I counted 24 characters who were in a DEATH BATTLE. Those are... Strider Hiryu (Vs Ryu Hayabusa) Frank West (Vs Leon Kennedy) Vergil (Vs Sephiroth) Zero (Vs Metal Sonic) Ryu (Vs Scorpion and Vs Jin) Dante (Vs Bayonetta) Chun-Li (Vs Mai) Felicia (Vs Taokaka) Akuma (Vs Shang Tsung and Vs Shao Kahn) Haggar (Vs Zangief) Ghost Rider (Vs Lobo) Hawkeye (Vs Green Arrow) Doctor Strange (Vs Doctor Fate) Iron Fist (Vs Po) Captain America (Vs Batman) Deadpool (Vs Deathstroke and Vs Pinkie Pie AND Vs The Mask) Wolverine (Vs Raiden) Iron Man (Vs Lex Luthor and Vs Batman) Doctor Doom (Vs Darth Vader and Vs Lex Luthor) Storm (Vs Korra) Thor (Vs Raiden and Vs Wonder Woman AND Vs Vegeta) Spider-Man (Vs Batman) Hulk (Vs Doomsday and Vs Broly) Magneto (Vs Tetsuo) So a little under half the roster (24 or 48%) has been on Death Battle across 33 episodes total because of repeats. 10 Capcom and 14 Marvel. So I also wondered what's the game's win rate with characters? The characters in this game won 18/33 episodes (counting Deadpool Vs Pinkie Pie as a win) so just over 50%. Iron Man, Doom, Deadpool, and Thor each have 2 wins so 8/17 wins is just them. That's more than all the Capcom wins which is 5. The winners were Strider Hiryu Zero Ryu (only against Jin) Dante Akuma (only against Shang Tsung) Ghost Rider Hawkeye Deadpool (against Deathstroke and I'm counting Pinkie Pie, but not Mask) Iron Man (both times) Doctor Doom (both times) Storm Thor (against Raiden and the Prince of all Saiyans, but not Wondie) Spider-Man Magento So those are some fun statistics. If I'm wrong about something or miss counted... Whoops sorry.
Phoenix Wright is actually one of the hardest hitting characters of this game. He's essentially a joke character, but a set up requirement for him (has to gather three random pieces of GOOD evidence, when there can also be BAD evidence as well in the middle of a match) can make him hit hard on even the toughest characters, especially with X-Factor (which is this game's Z-spark)
@@justsortathere540 because characters like that tend to be jokingly be described by fg players that they only become "real characters" once they have the set up which make them way harder to play because until then you're playing a nerfed version of your character. Either your character can ignore the set up phase in some way and they're good or they're forced to play as their nerfed counterpart which can range from decent to god awful depending on the gimmick the game use
3:40 - True, but there is Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe 11:30 - Good guess, but that's Shuma-Gorath from Marvel Comics, he's a Doctor Strange's Villain. 14:42, 33:37, 38:07 - That a Nightmare Judge, from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice for All, the game starts with Phoenix being in front of Giant Ominous version of the Judge saying, that Phoenix has permanently lost his lawyer licence, and is about to crush Phoenix with his giant gavel, then Phoenix wakes up in a Waiting Hall, realising it was just a dream. 23:43 - Amaterasu is the Goddess of the Sun in Japanese Mythology, and also she's a Main Character in a Beautiful Game called "Okami". 28:50 - Kyle recognising MODOK from Ant-Man 3, sounded like something a Gen-Z person would said. 37:40 - Yes and Yes
Lythero was known as one of the best players in UMVC3 before he was popular in DragonBall FighterZ. He had an unorthodox team of Phoenix Wright, Viewtiful Joe, and Dante
To answer the question on whether people ever took this game seriously/competitively, the short answer is yes. The long answer: This game was one of the most played fighting games competitively for a long time. And is one of the most loved fighting games in history. Hell, it's gonna be at EVO this year (EVO is basically THE fighting game competition). So despite coming out over ten years ago, people still like the game enough for it to be played at the biggest fighting game tournament ever...
25:10 That was a Counter Super, which is why he panicked. Thankfully, he managed to cancel into Zipline, so instead of activating the Counter he moved backwards lmfao.
Max is essentially Mr. Fighting game. He has been making fighting game based content for a long time, done a variety of skits, tutorials and more to show his love and appreciation of fighting games. He was responsible for making several of the official trailers for the Killer Instinct fighting game reboot, and has been able to meet with a lot of fighting game developers over the years as a result of his channel’s career. As some people have mentioned I would recommend giving some of his “boss rage” videos a try, or even his old “Assist Me” skits which revolves around Marvel vs Capcon.
Maximilian Dood is problably the most popular fighting game content creator on TH-cam. He also covers other popular games and videogame news in general.
18:01 You fool. Dormammu does not bargain in this game. 20:05 X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine. 20:27 That is Astaroth. The final boss of Ghost n Goblins. I swear I don't play as many games as the average person in the world but I still could teach you a college course on gaming. Hopefully you won't walk out after a few days on this one. 23:46 That's Sun Goddess Amaterasu to you, mortal. Ammy is the protagonist of Okami. And she's the personification of the goddess Amaterasu from Japanese mythology. But as a wolf. 26:08 I was just about to roast you for that statement, I swear. 32:10 Vyse is from Skies of Arcadia
Viewtiful Joe is a character, originally from a GameCube title of the same name made as you should expect from Capcom. I barely remember the last time I saw gameplay from that game but it was kinda like a beat'em up or something like that with a lot of movie jokes of the time.
Viewtiful Joe is a side scrolling beat 'em up where the main character, Joe, has the power of movie VFX, like speeding up, slow-motion and zoom-ins, all of which can effect the physics of his world, making him hit hard or change how the environment is interacts with itself
In case you were wondering, this person, at 10:14, is Pringus McDingus. He also animated this >> 14:54. Oh, and that song at end was the voice lines of Cap'n America remixed into a song.
“Why Marvel vs Capcom?” Well dear child, long ago, in the year of 1994 when Capcom was making fighting games out the wazoo, Capcom created an X-Men fighting game called _Children of the Atom._ In said game, Capcom included Akuma (Street Fighter) as a secret character. One year later, Capcom developed yet another Marvel fighting game, _Marvel Super Heroes,_ and in it added another secret character from one of their own franchises, Anita from Darkstalkers. One year after THAT, Capcom developed a true blue crossover fighter, _X-Men vs Street Fighter,_ turning what was originally a simple fun addition into a full blown crossover. From there Capcom would develop _Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter_ a year later, then _Marvel vs Capcom_ a year after that, and then a culmination of everything they did (and more) in _Marvel vs Capcom 2_ in 2000, lasting a very long time from casual fans and fighting game heads alike. And that is the story of how _Marvel vs Capcom 3_ and its subsequent updated rerelease _Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3_ came to be in 2011. The end. Oh. There was also _Marvel vs Capcom Infinite_ but with the whole Disney vs Fox debacle happening at that time and Marvel being rather difficult to work with and Capcom putting its devs on a time crunch, we don’t really talk about that one. But the gameplay was good.
Why is Marvel vs Capcom so popular, you ask? What if we told you this game series has such lore and drama behind everyone of its games that you could make a documentary just about these games?
To explain one small thing, Phoenix Wright as a game series is a visual novel puzzle esc game. You play as Phoenix here who is a defense attorney that you... Do somethings that aren't like in our world's legal system. Phoenix's legal system is different. But in the games you have to find evidence or something about a case via talking with wacky and odd characters to find the truth and win the case.
35:10 Wesker is the super awesome MEGA terrorist from Resident Evil, he pretty much perfected the virus Nemesis uses, codenamed "Ouroboros" like that mythical snake that eats itself perpetually for all of time, he's as strong as nemesis (*If not a little stronger idk I forgor*) while still being chad levels of handsome, he uses his CRAZY intellect and newfound CRAZY strength to try and infect the ENTIRE WORLD with his super virus. (which would arguably make every human ever SUPER Strong, but not everybody would survive, which is the ONLY reason he's the villian of his game lol)
A little history about Marvel vs Capcom for anyone who is interested: Marvel basically got in contact with Capcom to make a game called "X men: Children of the Atom", a fighting game released in 1996 with X Men characters, it was quite successful so Marvel got them to make another fighting game: "Marvel Superheroes" a year later. It also was successful, attracting the niche of comic book fans to arcades. But Street Fighter was always the BIG thing in arcades, so "Children of the Atom" and "Marvel Super Heroes" had some rough competition. But then, someone had a great idea. What if we made a fighting game with characters from the X men and from Street Fighter? Doing that would attract and potentially unite both niches. Then "X men vs Street Fighter" was born. The game was a massive hit, so they followed it up with "Marvel Super Heros vs Street Fighter" in 97. It was such a great hit that they tough "Hey, these games are getting a lot of attention, so why don't we put characters from other games we make in a attempt to promote them?". Then, in 1998, the first "Marvel vs Capcom" was born. "Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3" released in 2011 is like a celebration of both companies, the game have a roster of fan favorite characters like "The Avengers" and some "Street Fighter" characters, but also had more obscure characters. From Marvel we had obscure characters like Taskmaster, Rocket Raccoon, X23 and Dormamu (this was before the movies) From Capcom we had more obscure characters from old classics like Spencer (From the game "Bionic Comando.) and characters from niche but VERY beloved games like Amaterasu (From the work of art of a game named Okami) and Phoenix Wright (From the now 11 games long franchise: Ace Attorney) The last game of the franchise "Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite" was overall not very well recieved due to the lack of fan favorite characters (there was NO X Men characters due to legal issues) and a absolutely cringe inducing "Story mode" that no one asked for. Marvel vs Capcom 2 and 3 are still two of the most beloved and celebrated fighting games *ever made* .
Your question of "Why is it Marvel vs Capcom?" got me curious, so I looked it up. Apparently, some genius at Capcom went "Y'know what would make us bank? Buying the rights to a bunch of Marvel characters and making them fight our characters." And it was a massive success.
Fun Fact: This game originally came out right before Iron Man 3 released, so while most of the Marvel cast is based on the comics, Iron Man is based on Robert Downey Jr’s version of the character. They got a voice actor to sound near identical to him and replicate the personality 👍🏻
About Phoenix Wright: yes he is indeed a character from a game series and the ultimate you saw him do (with the big ol dude) is a reference to a dream Phoenix once had involving the judge (the big guy) gaveling him to death because he got too many penalties. This move is like a one to one reference to the second game’s first case where Phoenix has said dream
alright now that im home i can get into what i do best, which is list out and explain things that i halfway know in borderline autistic detail 3:35 capcom was approached by marvel way back in the great before time (the 90s) because capcom basically is *the* fighting game company and said "hey, can you make a fighting game for us with these marvel characters?" and they said sure and slapped together a marvel fighting game in like 8 months or some shit that barely worked and was horribly broken but people still liked it enough to make more of them so they did for a bit and then stuff happened and marvel and capcom stopped liking each other for a while but then things got better and then they got worse again and now things are kind of ??? right now cuz capcom is doing really well and disney ( who now owns marvel) is more interested in buying capcom than doing anything productive or collaborative with them 4:05 that is dante with a color type intentionally made to look like vergil. and yes this has been a tactic used to confuse opponents in competitive play 4:20 no, it's a forced malfunction that occurs every third use of deadpool's teleport move. the malfunction can technically be delayed but you can't negate it entirely 7:29 x factor is the predecessor of the sparking mechanic in dragonball fighterz except it is way more broken. it is activated via pressing all 4 attack buttons simultaneously 7:48 most of the basic mechanics of dragonball fighterz were pulled from this game 9:05 yes. capcom has phoenix wright in fact, the roster for umvc3 is as follows; for the capcom side we have Ryu, Chun Li, C. Viper and Akuma from the street fighter series. Amaterasu from the okami series Arthur and Firebrand from the ghost and goblins series Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Wesker and Nemesis from the resident evil series Dante, Vergil and Trish from the devil may cry series Felicia, Hsien Ko and Morrigan from the darkstalkers series Frank West from the deadrising series Haggar from the final fight series (though he is a known character in the street fighter series) Phoenix Wright from the ace attorney series Spencer from the bionic commando series Strider Hiryu from the strider series Viewtiful Joe from the viewtiful joe series Tron Bonne and Zero from the megaman series for the marvel side we have Captain America Spiderman Iron Man Doctor Doom Deadpool Doctor Strange Dormammu Shuma Gorath Ghost Rider She Hulk Hulk Wolverine Storm Phoenix Nova Super Skrull Hawkeye Thor Magneto M.O.D.O.K. X-23 Rocket Raccoon Sentinel Iron Fist Taskmaster 9:15 this is a mod. there are a few of those in this video 11:34 no, that's shuma gorath. it's an eldritch horror. cuz marvel has those. or had before the disney acquisition or something idfk. corporate mergers make everything weird for IP's 13:56 bonus trivia: in this game, chris redfield's magnum is one of the highest durability projectile moves in the game allowing it to completely stuff the majority of other non super projectiles. chris himself also has one of the highest base healthpools in the game with 1,100,00 hp where the standard hp for a character is generally between 900,000 and 1,000,000 14:45 that was a level 1 super from Phoenix Wright, titled "ORDER IN THE COURT!" and it hits everyone caught in the super however the user and their allies take no damage, only suffering a knockdown 16:07 this was the most popular fighting game on the planet 17:17 that is a real ass combo, dawg 19:06 ZMC, also known as the "Zero May Cry Team" is composed of Zero, Dante and Vergil. it is a high execution team due to the low average health of the characters as well as the very tight timing of their combo structure (vergil notwithstanding) however, these characters also have the overall best variety of moves in the game that can cover effectively every possible situation that could feasibly occur and convert nearly any stray hit into a full combo that can realistically kill most of the entire roster from full health 20:08 X-23 is a biological near clone of wolverine and was created in a lab to be the perfect battlefield bio weapon 20:54 this game is sometimes lovingly referred to as a "kusoge" fighting game which is a japanese term for "shit" due in large part to many things in the game simply not working properly 20:55 fighting games are coming out right now with broken mechanics and character interactions. big name companies have improved on release quality greatly but that doesn't mean it can't happen anymore 22:56 hulk is not considered to be particularly good competitively speaking 23:47 Amaterasu is the japanese god of the sun among other things and the main character of the game okami 36:22 Dante is credited with having one of the largest movepools in the entire roster with 22 special moves and 9 command normals, several of each of which have variants attached to them and he is one of the most versatile characters in the game because of it 40:07 that is a technique called "wave dashing" and it will give you arthritis 41:49 what you just witnessed is what is technically known as a "Kara Cancel" some fighting games allow for this dpending on how their input reading system works where you can cancel the startup of a move, usually a normal, into another move, usually a special. Kara Cancels are generally used to get characters to move during certain moves to enable them to have more reach with the move they actually want to use though it has other applications as well as seen here
@@theduckgoesmoo Fun fact, Capcom also made a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fighting game in the 90s, made by the team who made Street Fighter. The team was a huge fan of JoJo's, and a lot of characters in Street Fighter are also based on JoJo characters.
I would also recommend reacting to Maximilian Dood’s Assist Me series where he teaches you how to play different characters in MvC3 and UMVC3. Since I discovered that series, I’ve noticed that Max’s Main team is Doom, Wesker and Stryder.
I know its 10 months late, but may as well. Capcom was arcade god during the 80s and 90s, and was commissioned by marvel to make an x-men fighting game. Due to it's success, they then made X-men vs Street Fighter, because that would appeal to both audiences (Also to use up chips because they had an overstock). That game was a major success, so Marvel offered a majority of their properties, which led to capcom doing the same, making the next game Marvel vs Capcom. They then made two sequels, with MvC2 still having tournament play even after MvC3 came out. A re-release with all the content and a bit more was then released, (that was kinda Capcoms thing, theres like 20 SF2s) and that re-release is UMvC3. We don't talk about MvCI.
That one move with a Judge is probably a reference to the second game where Phoenix has a nightmare involving a monstrous version of the Judge towering over him, judging him, and bringing down his gavel
Phoenix Wright is one of my favourite characters in any fighting game ever, mostly because his character can be summed up as "one of the worst characters in the game until you do a very difficult thing in which case he turns into a broken character that kills anyone by looking at them funny"
You should really consider reacting to Maximillion door’s “boss rage” videos He basically faces of big, super bosses at their most difficult setting. A good portion of them are fighting games, sometimes some of the challenges just getting to the super boss.
The main reason why Marvel VS Capcom exists is because back in the 90s/00s, Capcom made 2D Marvel fighting games and so they used that Marvel license to create the MVC franchise. However, seen Disney has got the Marvel license, its unlikely theyll ever be another MVC game and how rubbish MVC infinite was
7:30 "man that's so NOT intimidating." if you know what it is? that is the scariest level 3 in the game. at level 1 X-factor it it destroys entire healtbars, nevermind at lvl 2 or 3.
20:10 so to expand on the info of X-23. Basically she’s one of those characters that were introduced in a media outside of the comics and due to the popularity actually became canon to the comics and part of the mythos. She’s a female clone of Logan via the damaged DNA and she only has two claws in hers hands and one in each foot. At first she was treated like Logan’s sister for a bit similar to Spider-Man and his clones until it was more of a father and daughter dynamic and further made with a retcon. Interesting enough that retcon makes sense, her DNA is half Logan’s and half of the woman who was pregnant with her and raised for a bit. So she’s his daughter in more ways than one. Also currently she shares the mantle of Wolverine as her father. Having a costume modeled after his and even having a panel that references his first comic book appearance. So calling X-23 now is like calling Logan Weapon X, which gets you an angry Wolverine Cartoon she appeared in was X-men: Evolution
Maxamillion dood has one series you might like called boss rage. It’s be a great way to introduce you to more fighting games and see how much of a pain in the ass arcade mode can be.
Marvel vs Capcom has a LONG history but essentially back in the 90s, Street Fighter 2 was like THE trend so Marvel wanted Capcom to make a few fighting games for them. A few years later after the success of the marvel fighting games and Street Fighter Alpha they just thought "put these two together and we get even more money." It worked.
Viewtiful Joe is from the game, Viewiful Joe make by Capcom Chris is from a small game, don't know if you heard of it call Resident Evil X-23 is from Marvel and she is a clone of wolverine The eyeball guy is not from sonic since that is SEGA, he is from marvel and is one of doctor strange enemies. Maximilian is fighting game content and and yes there is UMVC3 tournaments
As someone who’s super invested in the FGC to the point of being a small competitor, it’s weirdly refreshing to see someone new to the genre react to one of my favorite stupid games of all time lmao
The reason almost nobody in this game resembles their MCU counterparts is because this game came out in Nov of 2011. The only films in the MCU at that point were the first two Iron Mans, The incredible Hulk, Thor, and Captain America. The last two came out during mid 2011, so neither would've been out early enough to have an impact on development. This game depicts a Marvel that predates the MCU almost entirely and I love it for that.
Okay, so Capcom is the Japanese game company that is most famous for games like Street Fighter and Resident Evil. Why Marvel vs. Capcom? Because Capcom made a killer good licensed X-Men fighting game back in the day called X-Men: Children of the Atom. The game went over so well, and fans were practically screaming to see it, so the first crossovergame happened with it's sequel, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, which again went over incredibly well, so the next game expanded the roster to be Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, and the next game started to include Capcom characters other than Street Fighter, and thus Marvel vs. Capcom was born.
Viewtiful joe is a Capcom character from the early 2000's, coming from the best 2.5 side scroller beat em up to ever exist, with the same name, Viewtiful joe. They had 4 or 5 games, it's basically dead and I lament it's death every day. Also yeah UMVC3 is played at Evo, the big fighting game tournament, to this day.
"Why Marvel vs. Capcom?" Time to learn ya boi. Back in the mystical time known as the 90's, Marvel turned to Capcom to make an X-Men fighting game called "Children of the Atom". In CotA, Capcom added the character Akuma from Street Fighter as a guest. Following CotA's success, they then went on to make a game with other Marvel Heroes known simply as "Marvel Super Heroes". Following that, theu decided to rip off the band-aid and go full crossover with X-Men vs. Street Fighter, then Marvel Superheroes Vs. Street Fighter then adding more Capcom characters BESIDES just Street Fighter to become Marvel vs. Capcom. MvC 1 and ESPECIALLY 2 were some of the most critically acclaimed fighting games of their/all time and people were clamoring for a sequel for years That sequel finally came in the form of Marvel vs Capcom 3. Despite the visual and gamplay updates, the roster was a point of contention due to its signifcantly smaller size compared to MvC2. That would be addressed in ULTIMATE MvC3 which was a double edged sword because while Ultimate 3 did add a whole host of new additions to the base game, people were not too into Capcom's shtick of releasing updated versions of games that they JUST released After Marvel 3, people once again clamored for a sequel and eventually got one in the form of Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite but that is a story for another time...a story without a happy ending. Tl;dr: Capcom made a Marvel Fighting game and got permission to mix their own characters afterwards.
So some context to this video or game in general Umvc is the short version to Ultimate marvel vs capcom, this game brought so many people together because "if fighting game were food MvC is icecream pure unfiltired sugar that brings you hapiness" so yeah its a dream game because its a crossover and its known to be one of the most hype fighting games due to all the over the top energy it has. Maximillian Dood the final guy from the video is quite the important person in the fighting game community he has always been pretty close with developers and the community, for example he has appeared chilling with Harada (Tekken director) in one of his reaction videos, had involvement in Killer Instinct to the point he helped with the trailers and play testing, and overall a great dood that always love to bring people to fighting games and fighting games to the people (not only fighting games tho, even the people that made the FF7 Remake said that Max's video of happiness from reacting to the trailer inspired them to continue making the best remake possible). The reason MvC is quite important is because when the game was releasing or released, CAPCOM featured Max guide videos that he was doing with his friends and those videos brought so many people together to learn the game and also to learn about Max (i was one of them, also forgive my bad english im mexican and still quite struggle with grammar) Also little bit of context MvC is so important that whenever people see assist in any fighting game they will say "Its Mahvel / Its like Mahvel" because this game popularized the team aspect of fighting games, hell this inspired DBFZ as a whole, almost every mechanic from DBFZ is inspired from a mechanic from marvel
Not knowing Viewtiful Joe is actually pretty dang common, sadly. Only like one or two of those games, back before... I wanna say 2004 at the ABSOLUTE latest. And Capcom's just... Capcom. The fact that they crossed over with Marvel on this scale was a sequence of events that spiraled out from X-Men Vs Street Fighter back in the mid-90s due to the phenomenon popularity both had at the time. It just kept going until the first Marvel Vs Capcom game came out, and fighting games were never the same again. We still hold out hope for MvC 5. Yes, Infinite was MvC 4, if you don't want to admit it you are a coward.
"Was this game like ever like serious - Did they ever do like competitions?" MvC might be one of the most played competitive fighting games of all time. Its been played competitively by some of the scenes best players for as long as Smash melee has.
Bruh your lack video game knowledge I basically took for granted for most of my life is wild xD good on ya for putting yourself out there and checking out the content tho!
So the story of how MvC came around was that in the 1990s after the comic book crash, Marvel was on the verge of bankruptcy and so was selling the license to all their characters left and right to keep the company afloat. Capcom got the rights to make a series of video games based on the X-Men and the Marvel Superheroes which then later crossed over with their own characters like Street Fighter and Darkstalkers. From then on Marvel vs Capcom was born! Also that funny little dash that characters keep doing is a technique called plinkdashing. In this game you can dash by pressing two buttons and you can cancel the startup frames of attacks into a dash. So you press L then L+M then L then repeat and you just go flying across the screen, its a key part of this games movement system.
Viewtiful Joe - a dude gets movie-based superhero powers. I think his transformation catchphrase is "Henshin a go go," or something like that. Chris - Resident evil protag. The OG Boulder-punching a**hole himself. Re1 is his first game. Re5 is basically him and Wesker seeing who's the bigger Chad. X-23 is related to Wolverine (daughter?). The only reason I know of her is the second xman movie. Phoenix Wright is a lawyer who looks for clues and holes in witness testimony to defend his clients. Edgeworth is from the same series, as a protagonist in a few games. Arthur is the protagonist from ghost and goblins. The game is infamously hard because he is two hits from dead at best in a game with collision damage, and getting the best ending requires not getting hit, at all! Will add more if still confused.
The reason they made Marvel Vs Capcom is because Capcom made fighting games for Marvel. Which were X-MEN Children of The Atom and Marvel Superheroes. They put Akuma in one of their games, and decided to make a crossover fighting game between them. If your asking that Disney owns Capcom. You must be out of your fucking mind their dude.
Marvel vs Capcom was made during a time before Disney owned Marvel and MvC was the fighting game series up there with mortal Kombat and street fighter but a cool fact Disney has always had a cool relationship with Capcom since Capcom was the development team that has worked on there games since the late 80's Early 90's In fact here's a list en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Disney_games_by_Capcom Now a suggestion is check out "the moon theme" from DuckTales and "dr. Wily's fortress stage 2" from mega man 2 they are absolute bangers that Capcom has made back in the day Capcom are the people that make the ghost n goblins, resident evil, dead rising (where the "FAN-TASTIC!!!" Meme comes from), and course the Phoenix Wright game basically anything in this game that isn't marvel comes from Capcom 9:12 the nappa skin and link are MODS 16:08 oh yes even till this day in fact also It has made it to EVO 2023 line up 20:07 x-23 is wolverine's daughter (yes the wolverine from X-Men which wolverine weapon X and no x-23 isn't her real name) 23:37 Amaterasu is a god like dog from the capcom game Ōkami which is based of the Japanese mythology goddess Amaterasu 25:45 it's a reference to the "Skyler white YO" meme based on the "breaking bad" scene where Skyler meets Jessie for the first time
You know what I just realized: With the exception of Super Skrull, literally EVERY Marvel character in this game is in a movie or series. Not specifically MCU because X-Men and Dr. Doom, but they've all been put to screen before at least once. EDIT: Wait, I forgot Nova existed. I don't think he's in the MCU yet.
So allow me to explain, in Marvel vs Capcom 3 there is two sides of the character select "book", one side is Capcom IPs one side is Marvel IPs, you can choose 3 from either both sides, or mix and match when choosing your mains, and the Mechanic known as X-Factor is the most broken mechanic in fighting game history (super high damage which increases for each character lost, health regen, and increased movement speed... It even allows Infinites with 1 character)
if you want to see how broken umvc3 is i recommend " UMVC3 is Broken " by TheBrunoZone i also recommend "Animation Excellence: Phoenix Wright - Lawyer Up" by SugarPunch if you want to see how they turned phoenix into a fighting game character
Phoenix Wright has a lot of crazy. He has 3 modes. Investigate, he tries to gather good evidence. Trial, he uses that evidence and his movement changes. Turnabout, all moves power up plus has a powerful Level3. The move he was using that you ask is Level1 Objection Overruled, it just flattens both players to level the field mainly to stop combos.
Dude doesn't know capcom, doesn't know max, doesn't know half these characters, only knows Marvel stuff from the movies, I'm surprised he even chose to watch this.
Because he knows lythero and his videos are hilarious. Also, if been watching duck for awhile. no one should be surprise he doesn't know a lot of popular franchises.
I cannot believe you- ... actually, no. That's completely & upsettingly on-brand for you. Marvel Vs Capcom is a long running Arcade fighter, & is the cornerstone inspiration for almost every 3v3 2d fighter out there. Dragon Ball FighterZ is specifically the same formula as MvC, but with Dragon Ball characters specifically. "Why is it Marvel vs Capcom specifically? Are they owned by the same people?" First of all, no. No they are not. And secondly, strap into your britches, we're doing a history lesson. Way back when, in the days of the actual arcade machine rule, Capcom wanted to make another fighting game using their Street Fighter characters, & they wanted it to be a crossover game. Marvel gave Capcom permission to use the X-Men for this new game, & this is where it began: Street Fighter vs X-Men. This game did VERY well. So well in fact, that they were pressured to make a sequel ASAP. So SFvX-M 2 was made with an expanded roster. Around this time, other crossover fighters of the same premise were being made by Capcom. Most notable was Capcom vs Namco, which used a variety of different characters from a variety of the multitude of IPs both companies made. Street Fighter vs X-Men 2 was doing great, as expected, but they couldn't really do much more with it do to the limited roster of both respective franchises. There were only so many Street Fighters, & so many X-Men, after all. Marvel decided to cash in with an increased presence & gave them full rights to use ANYONE they owned, rather than limiting them to only the X-Men specifically. And so do that they did. Capcom followed suit, using more from their franchises besides Street Fighter specifically, though, they would always have a strong presence regardless. And so, the next big hit in the arcade cabinets was ready to launch: Marvel vs Capcom. And it was *_incredible._* The game made so much money that a sequel was demanded even faster than SFvXM was. Marvel vs Capcom 2 would go on to DEFINE the genre from there on. It became the backbone for Assists, how they functioned, & Team Supers. But the boys at Capcom were still cooking, with ideas for a third entry already stewing. Several years later, & the masterpiece of Marvel vs Capcom 3 was released to the public. Using the same formula as the previous game with the biggest roster of characters in the franchise. Including a brand new mechanic called "X-Factor" as an homage to the series' beginning. This powerup would be the inspiration for "Sparking" in FighterZ & any other mechanic of similar purpose. A while later, we received the expansion of the game Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, the game you're currently witnessing, with EVEN MORE CHARACTERS. One of the most notable being Vergil from DMC, carrying the tradition of Vergil only being playable in Special Edition of games lmao.
Marvel vs Capcom is a long lasting crossover fighting game franchise produced by Capcom(owners of games like Mega Man, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Devil May Cry and many more). Many of the characters who appear are made by Capcom but some of the characters they play have been modded like Nappa Haggar, Link as Task Master, and Vyse as Stryder. Back in the 90’s Capcom made some Marvel themed arcade games before making a fighting game crossing over their own characters with the Marvel characters, like the street fighter characters and the X-Men. Eventually they took more marvel characters and characters from other capcom properties, such as Darkstalkers, Megaman, and many others, and put them together into the best fighting games ever.

How about the fan made crossover series with My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, and/or Disgaea?
You know Fighterz gameplay? You can largely owe it to this game. The Marvel vs Capcom series pretty much pioneered team-based fighting games.
4:19 Deadpool has a teleport move. But he can only use it twice in a row. If you use it again, his belt will short out and deal damage to him, after that you can use it two more times. What he was doing was somehow cancelling the shortcurcuit into itself, causing the animation to loop.
9:24 Yeah, they're using mods. In normal gameplay, each character has 6(8?) colors, and one DLC costume that these guys modded over.
11:34 That's Shuma-Gorath. He's pretty much an Elder God and a minor nemesis of Dr Strange. Weirdly enough, the dude's been in almost every entry of the MvC series. Capcom loves characters with unorthodox fighting styles.
16:04 Yeah, this game was pretty hype in the fighting game community back in the early 2010s. Lee even mentioned they're playing it at EVO this year, which is pretty much THE premiere fighting game tournament.
20:09 X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine who he decided to take under his wing.
38:11 That's the Judge from the Phoenix Wright games, in a rare instance of him actually doing his job correctly.
40:08 That is what is known as a wavedash. It's for moving across the stage faster by cancelling and repeating dashes.
I think he figured out that it was modded as the skins just got progressively dumber

Fun Story: I actually had a chance to fight Max in UMVC3 once. It went great, no issues whatsoever, I really held my own against him...
he whooped my ass.
Some of his Legacy series can be good watches too, going through all, or at least the main beats, of particular franchises in the lead-up to a new release in said franchise. You don't necessarily need to know much about how to play them in order to enjoy them, they're still plenty informative and entertaining.
In the immortal words of Pringus McDingus:
“Well….F**k!”
"Did they ever do competitions with this game?"
Oh my sweet, summer child
I just love the utter confusion on display by merely everything single thing in this video. For context:
Marvel vs. Capcom came about during the 90s when Marvel (who were struggling financially due to the speculator boom, which is a whole can of worm of itself) licensed off their IP to movie and game studios. Capcom was commissioned to make a few arcade fighting titles which included X-Men: Childre of the Atom, which led to X-Men vs. Street Fighter, which led to Marvel Super Heroes, which led to Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, which finally led to Marvel vs. Capcom. The vs series remains a fan favorite amongst fighting game players with Marvel vs. Capcom 2 being the most sought-after game in the franchise, still going for more than full price for a used copy. 3 was the last in this great saga, with the Ultimate edition being rereleased on the current-gen console to collide with a somewhat inferior reboot.
Chris Redfield is the main protagonist for the first and fifth Resident Evil
X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine
Viewtiful Joe is a movie-goer who get sucked into a Movie Land and became a superhero
Amaterasu (also known as Okami Amaterasu) is a sun god in the form of a white wolf
Pheonix Wright is a character created by Capcom who's a lawyer that starred in 5 in a 6 game franchise
Taskmaster is a mercenary with a photographic memory who copied moves us other Marvel heroes
This game is played professionally in the fighting game tournement EVO almost yearly
Watching Duck go through this and not knowing who anyone is is both frustrating and extremely satisfying at the same time.
Marvel vs Capcom is a fighting crossover between Marvel Comics and video game characters created and owned by Capcom.
These include:
-Megaman
-Resident Evil
-Street Fighter
-Devil May Cry
-Phoenix Wright
-Darkstalkers
-Ghosts n' Goblins
-Viewtiful Joe
-Okami
-Etc......
In particular, MvC 3 was the first game in the series in over a decade.
It got almost, if not, just as much hype back then as Smash Ultimate did a few years ago.
The episodic trailers for the game are still Amazing, and they're worth reacting to if you ever get time.
which then flopped hard when Marvel VS Capcom Infinite happened
10:34 well no need to imagine. I got you. (This was typed right after Death Battle Season 10 Episode 2 so it may eventually be outdated)
Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 has 50 characters. Out of all the characters in the game, I counted 24 characters who were in a DEATH BATTLE. Those are...
Strider Hiryu (Vs Ryu Hayabusa)
Frank West (Vs Leon Kennedy)
Vergil (Vs Sephiroth)
Zero (Vs Metal Sonic)
Ryu (Vs Scorpion and Vs Jin)
Dante (Vs Bayonetta)
Chun-Li (Vs Mai)
Felicia (Vs Taokaka)
Akuma (Vs Shang Tsung and Vs Shao Kahn)
Haggar (Vs Zangief)
Ghost Rider (Vs Lobo)
Hawkeye (Vs Green Arrow)
Doctor Strange (Vs Doctor Fate)
Iron Fist (Vs Po)
Captain America (Vs Batman)
Deadpool (Vs Deathstroke and Vs Pinkie Pie AND Vs The Mask)
Wolverine (Vs Raiden)
Iron Man (Vs Lex Luthor and Vs Batman)
Doctor Doom (Vs Darth Vader and Vs Lex Luthor)
Storm (Vs Korra)
Thor (Vs Raiden and Vs Wonder Woman AND Vs Vegeta)
Spider-Man (Vs Batman)
Hulk (Vs Doomsday and Vs Broly)
Magneto (Vs Tetsuo)
So a little under half the roster (24 or 48%) has been on Death Battle across 33 episodes total because of repeats. 10 Capcom and 14 Marvel.
So I also wondered what's the game's win rate with characters? The characters in this game won 18/33 episodes (counting Deadpool Vs Pinkie Pie as a win) so just over 50%. Iron Man, Doom, Deadpool, and Thor each have 2 wins so 8/17 wins is just them. That's more than all the Capcom wins which is 5. The winners were
Strider Hiryu
Zero
Ryu (only against Jin)
Dante
Akuma (only against Shang Tsung)
Ghost Rider
Hawkeye
Deadpool (against Deathstroke and I'm counting Pinkie Pie, but not Mask)
Iron Man (both times)
Doctor Doom (both times)
Storm
Thor (against Raiden and the Prince of all Saiyans, but not Wondie)
Spider-Man
Magento
So those are some fun statistics. If I'm wrong about something or miss counted... Whoops sorry.
That’s actually wild!!! I had no idea capcom was that large
Phoenix Wright is actually one of the hardest hitting characters of this game. He's essentially a joke character, but a set up requirement for him (has to gather three random pieces of GOOD evidence, when there can also be BAD evidence as well in the middle of a match) can make him hit hard on even the toughest characters, especially with X-Factor (which is this game's Z-spark)
said evidence also gives him unique projectile moves, meaning you and your opponents must adapt to a changing moveset.
Which is funny cause competitors consider him one of the worst characters
To add on, Wright's X-Factor is bugged. No matter how many allies are remaining, his damage will be treated as level 3.
@@justsortathere540 because characters like that tend to be jokingly be described by fg players that they only become "real characters" once they have the set up which make them way harder to play because until then you're playing a nerfed version of your character. Either your character can ignore the set up phase in some way and they're good or they're forced to play as their nerfed counterpart which can range from decent to god awful depending on the gimmick the game use
3:40 - True, but there is Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe
11:30 - Good guess, but that's Shuma-Gorath from Marvel Comics, he's a Doctor Strange's Villain.
14:42, 33:37, 38:07 - That a Nightmare Judge, from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice for All, the game starts with Phoenix being in front of Giant Ominous version of the Judge saying, that Phoenix has permanently lost his lawyer licence, and is about to crush Phoenix with his giant gavel, then Phoenix wakes up in a Waiting Hall, realising it was just a dream.
23:43 - Amaterasu is the Goddess of the Sun in Japanese Mythology, and also she's a Main Character in a Beautiful Game called "Okami".
28:50 - Kyle recognising MODOK from Ant-Man 3, sounded like something a Gen-Z person would said.
37:40 - Yes and Yes
Lythero was known as one of the best players in UMVC3 before he was popular in DragonBall FighterZ.
He had an unorthodox team of Phoenix Wright, Viewtiful Joe, and Dante
To answer the question on whether people ever took this game seriously/competitively, the short answer is yes.
The long answer:
This game was one of the most played fighting games competitively for a long time. And is one of the most loved fighting games in history. Hell, it's gonna be at EVO this year (EVO is basically THE fighting game competition). So despite coming out over ten years ago, people still like the game enough for it to be played at the biggest fighting game tournament ever...
EVO is fighting game's Mecca.
25:10 That was a Counter Super, which is why he panicked. Thankfully, he managed to cancel into Zipline, so instead of activating the Counter he moved backwards lmfao.
Max is essentially Mr. Fighting game. He has been making fighting game based content for a long time, done a variety of skits, tutorials and more to show his love and appreciation of fighting games. He was responsible for making several of the official trailers for the Killer Instinct fighting game reboot, and has been able to meet with a lot of fighting game developers over the years as a result of his channel’s career.
As some people have mentioned I would recommend giving some of his “boss rage” videos a try, or even his old “Assist Me” skits which revolves around Marvel vs Capcon.
Also Lythero does have an old video of him facing Max at a Tournament on his channel.
If Max is Mr.Fighting game then who is Woolie?

26:08 I was just about to roast you for that statement, I swear.
32:10 Vyse is from Skies of Arcadia
duck: Who is "Viewtiful Joe"?!
Me, without any restraint: JOE MAMA!
Viewtiful Joe is a character, originally from a GameCube title of the same name made as you should expect from Capcom. I barely remember the last time I saw gameplay from that game but it was kinda like a beat'em up or something like that with a lot of movie jokes of the time.
Viewtiful Joe is a side scrolling beat 'em up where the main character, Joe, has the power of movie VFX, like speeding up, slow-motion and zoom-ins, all of which can effect the physics of his world, making him hit hard or change how the environment is interacts with itself
"I dont know who/what that is" Should basically be the new tagline for this channel lmao

“Why Marvel vs Capcom?” Well dear child, long ago, in the year of 1994 when Capcom was making fighting games out the wazoo, Capcom created an X-Men fighting game called _Children of the Atom._ In said game, Capcom included Akuma (Street Fighter) as a secret character. One year later, Capcom developed yet another Marvel fighting game, _Marvel Super Heroes,_ and in it added another secret character from one of their own franchises, Anita from Darkstalkers.
One year after THAT, Capcom developed a true blue crossover fighter, _X-Men vs Street Fighter,_ turning what was originally a simple fun addition into a full blown crossover. From there Capcom would develop _Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter_ a year later, then _Marvel vs Capcom_ a year after that, and then a culmination of everything they did (and more) in _Marvel vs Capcom 2_ in 2000, lasting a very long time from casual fans and fighting game heads alike.
And that is the story of how _Marvel vs Capcom 3_ and its subsequent updated rerelease _Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3_ came to be in 2011. The end.
Oh. There was also _Marvel vs Capcom Infinite_ but with the whole Disney vs Fox debacle happening at that time and Marvel being rather difficult to work with and Capcom putting its devs on a time crunch, we don’t really talk about that one. But the gameplay was good.
Why is Marvel vs Capcom so popular, you ask?
What if we told you this game series has such lore and drama behind everyone of its games that you could make a documentary just about these games?
Maximilian Dood is a pretty big youtuber that mainly makes content on fighting games, he's pretty funny
To explain one small thing, Phoenix Wright as a game series is a visual novel puzzle esc game. You play as Phoenix here who is a defense attorney that you... Do somethings that aren't like in our world's legal system. Phoenix's legal system is different. But in the games you have to find evidence or something about a case via talking with wacky and odd characters to find the truth and win the case.
35:10 Wesker is the super awesome MEGA terrorist from Resident Evil, he pretty much perfected the virus Nemesis uses, codenamed "Ouroboros" like that mythical snake that eats itself perpetually for all of time, he's as strong as nemesis (*If not a little stronger idk I forgor*) while still being chad levels of handsome, he uses his CRAZY intellect and newfound CRAZY strength to try and infect the ENTIRE WORLD with his super virus. (which would arguably make every human ever SUPER Strong, but not everybody would survive, which is the ONLY reason he's the villian of his game lol)
"You don't get DC vs Marvel"
No, but if memory serves, we DID get DC vs Mortal Kombat.
The fact I don't remember it that well probably says a lot.😂
A little history about Marvel vs Capcom for anyone who is interested:
Marvel basically got in contact with Capcom to make a game called "X men: Children of the Atom", a fighting game released in 1996 with X Men characters, it was quite successful so Marvel got them to make another fighting game: "Marvel Superheroes" a year later. It also was successful, attracting the niche of comic book fans to arcades. But Street Fighter was always the BIG thing in arcades, so "Children of the Atom" and "Marvel Super Heroes" had some rough competition.
But then, someone had a great idea. What if we made a fighting game with characters from the X men and from Street Fighter? Doing that would attract and potentially unite both niches. Then "X men vs Street Fighter" was born.
The game was a massive hit, so they followed it up with "Marvel Super Heros vs Street Fighter" in 97. It was such a great hit that they tough "Hey, these games are getting a lot of attention, so why don't we put characters from other games we make in a attempt to promote them?". Then, in 1998, the first "Marvel vs Capcom" was born.
"Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3" released in 2011 is like a celebration of both companies, the game have a roster of fan favorite characters like "The Avengers" and some "Street Fighter" characters, but also had more obscure characters.
From Marvel we had obscure characters like Taskmaster, Rocket Raccoon, X23 and Dormamu (this was before the movies)
From Capcom we had more obscure characters from old classics like Spencer (From the game "Bionic Comando.) and characters from niche but VERY beloved games like Amaterasu (From the work of art of a game named Okami) and Phoenix Wright (From the now 11 games long franchise: Ace Attorney)
The last game of the franchise "Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite" was overall not very well recieved due to the lack of fan favorite characters (there was NO X Men characters due to legal issues) and a absolutely cringe inducing "Story mode" that no one asked for.
Marvel vs Capcom 2 and 3 are still two of the most beloved and celebrated fighting games *ever made* .
Your question of "Why is it Marvel vs Capcom?" got me curious, so I looked it up. Apparently, some genius at Capcom went "Y'know what would make us bank? Buying the rights to a bunch of Marvel characters and making them fight our characters." And it was a massive success.
Fun Fact: This game originally came out right before Iron Man 3 released, so while most of the Marvel cast is based on the comics, Iron Man is based on Robert Downey Jr’s version of the character. They got a voice actor to sound near identical to him and replicate the personality 👍🏻
>Title
Where the hell have ya been these past 12 years?
About Phoenix Wright: yes he is indeed a character from a game series and the ultimate you saw him do (with the big ol dude) is a reference to a dream Phoenix once had involving the judge (the big guy) gaveling him to death because he got too many penalties. This move is like a one to one reference to the second game’s first case where Phoenix has said dream
the "I am Dante yo" bit was a reference to Breaking Bad where Skyler said "Yeah well I am Skyler White yo" to Jessie
"Who is Chris?"... I think a small part of my soul may have evaporated there
alright now that im home i can get into what i do best, which is list out and explain things that i halfway know in borderline autistic detail
3:35 capcom was approached by marvel way back in the great before time (the 90s) because capcom basically is *the* fighting game company and said "hey, can you make a fighting game for us with these marvel characters?" and they said sure and slapped together a marvel fighting game in like 8 months or some shit that barely worked and was horribly broken but people still liked it enough to make more of them so they did for a bit and then stuff happened and marvel and capcom stopped liking each other for a while but then things got better and then they got worse again and now things are kind of ??? right now cuz capcom is doing really well and disney ( who now owns marvel) is more interested in buying capcom than doing anything productive or collaborative with them
4:05 that is dante with a color type intentionally made to look like vergil. and yes this has been a tactic used to confuse opponents in competitive play
4:20 no, it's a forced malfunction that occurs every third use of deadpool's teleport move. the malfunction can technically be delayed but you can't negate it entirely
7:29 x factor is the predecessor of the sparking mechanic in dragonball fighterz except it is way more broken. it is activated via pressing all 4 attack buttons simultaneously
7:48 most of the basic mechanics of dragonball fighterz were pulled from this game

11:34 no, that's shuma gorath. it's an eldritch horror. cuz marvel has those. or had before the disney acquisition or something idfk. corporate mergers make everything weird for IP's
13:56 bonus trivia: in this game, chris redfield's magnum is one of the highest durability projectile moves in the game allowing it to completely stuff the majority of other non super projectiles. chris himself also has one of the highest base healthpools in the game with 1,100,00 hp where the standard hp for a character is generally between 900,000 and 1,000,000
14:45 that was a level 1 super from Phoenix Wright, titled "ORDER IN THE COURT!" and it hits everyone caught in the super however the user and their allies take no damage, only suffering a knockdown
16:07 this was the most popular fighting game on the planet
17:17 that is a real ass combo, dawg
19:06 ZMC, also known as the "Zero May Cry Team" is composed of Zero, Dante and Vergil. it is a high execution team due to the low average health of the characters as well as the very tight timing of their combo structure (vergil notwithstanding) however, these characters also have the overall best variety of moves in the game that can cover effectively every possible situation that could feasibly occur and convert nearly any stray hit into a full combo that can realistically kill most of the entire roster from full health
20:08 X-23 is a biological near clone of wolverine and was created in a lab to be the perfect battlefield bio weapon
20:54 this game is sometimes lovingly referred to as a "kusoge" fighting game which is a japanese term for "shit" due in large part to many things in the game simply not working properly
20:55 fighting games are coming out right now with broken mechanics and character interactions. big name companies have improved on release quality greatly but that doesn't mean it can't happen anymore
22:56 hulk is not considered to be particularly good competitively speaking
23:47 Amaterasu is the japanese god of the sun among other things and the main character of the game okami
36:22 Dante is credited with having one of the largest movepools in the entire roster with 22 special moves and 9 command normals, several of each of which have variants attached to them and he is one of the most versatile characters in the game because of it
40:07 that is a technique called "wave dashing" and it will give you arthritis
41:49 what you just witnessed is what is technically known as a "Kara Cancel" some fighting games allow for this dpending on how their input reading system works where you can cancel the startup of a move, usually a normal, into another move, usually a special. Kara Cancels are generally used to get characters to move during certain moves to enable them to have more reach with the move they actually want to use though it has other applications as well as seen here
Not many will read this due to how long it is, but I love this game so much (despite not being good at it)that it was an enjoyable read
Jesus you put a lot of work into this!!
@@theduckgoesmoo thanks!
@@theduckgoesmoo Fun fact, Capcom also made a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fighting game in the 90s, made by the team who made Street Fighter. The team was a huge fan of JoJo's, and a lot of characters in Street Fighter are also based on JoJo characters.
3:33 Capcom used to make fighting games for Marvel and then they decided to do a crossover with "X-men VS Street Fighters"
I would also recommend reacting to Maximilian Dood’s Assist Me series where he teaches you how to play different characters in MvC3 and UMVC3.
Since I discovered that series, I’ve noticed that Max’s Main team is Doom, Wesker and Stryder.
I know its 10 months late, but may as well.
Capcom was arcade god during the 80s and 90s, and was commissioned by marvel to make an x-men fighting game. Due to it's success, they then made X-men vs Street Fighter, because that would appeal to both audiences (Also to use up chips because they had an overstock). That game was a major success, so Marvel offered a majority of their properties, which led to capcom doing the same, making the next game Marvel vs Capcom. They then made two sequels, with MvC2 still having tournament play even after MvC3 came out. A re-release with all the content and a bit more was then released, (that was kinda Capcoms thing, theres like 20 SF2s) and that re-release is UMvC3. We don't talk about MvCI.
Amaterasu is from a game called okami, which is severely underrated
19:05 Duck and Alfred sharing the same brain cell.
That one move with a Judge is probably a reference to the second game where Phoenix has a nightmare involving a monstrous version of the Judge towering over him, judging him, and bringing down his gavel
Phoenix Wright is one of my favourite characters in any fighting game ever, mostly because his character can be summed up as "one of the worst characters in the game until you do a very difficult thing in which case he turns into a broken character that kills anyone by looking at them funny"
You should really consider reacting to Maximillion door’s “boss rage” videos
He basically faces of big, super bosses at their most difficult setting.
A good portion of them are fighting games, sometimes some of the challenges just getting to the super boss.
6 hours of malenia
40:03 that's actually a technique used in many fighting games out there, really difficult to master tho
The main reason why Marvel VS Capcom exists is because back in the 90s/00s, Capcom made 2D Marvel fighting games and so they used that Marvel license to create the MVC franchise. However, seen Disney has got the Marvel license, its unlikely theyll ever be another MVC game and how rubbish MVC infinite was
“Chris is Bucky now? How?” PC mods, Duck. PC mods
Tell me you don't play many games without telling me you don't play many games
Haggar Nappa, Twilight Princess Link Taskmaster, & Winter Soldier Chris Redfield are all just mods lmao.
You mentioning the “Boot to the Head” Phoenix Wright video made me so happy! I’d totally forgotten it existed. Thanks!
7:30 "man that's so NOT intimidating." if you know what it is? that is the scariest level 3 in the game. at level 1 X-factor it it destroys entire healtbars, nevermind at lvl 2 or 3.
In the words of max0r in the metal gear rising video part 2:"you'll be more confused then an American in a saled bar.
20:10 so to expand on the info of X-23. Basically she’s one of those characters that were introduced in a media outside of the comics and due to the popularity actually became canon to the comics and part of the mythos. She’s a female clone of Logan via the damaged DNA and she only has two claws in hers hands and one in each foot. At first she was treated like Logan’s sister for a bit similar to Spider-Man and his clones until it was more of a father and daughter dynamic and further made with a retcon. Interesting enough that retcon makes sense, her DNA is half Logan’s and half of the woman who was pregnant with her and raised for a bit. So she’s his daughter in more ways than one.
Also currently she shares the mantle of Wolverine as her father. Having a costume modeled after his and even having a panel that references his first comic book appearance. So calling X-23 now is like calling Logan Weapon X, which gets you an angry Wolverine
Cartoon she appeared in was X-men: Evolution
"What is Capcom".
No offence bud, But you don't deserve to call yourself a gamer if you don't know what *_CAPCOM_* is.
Maxamillion dood has one series you might like called boss rage. It’s be a great way to introduce you to more fighting games and see how much of a pain in the ass arcade mode can be.
Marvel vs Capcom has a LONG history but essentially back in the 90s, Street Fighter 2 was like THE trend so Marvel wanted Capcom to make a few fighting games for them. A few years later after the success of the marvel fighting games and Street Fighter Alpha they just thought "put these two together and we get even more money." It worked.
Viewtiful Joe is from the game, Viewiful Joe make by Capcom
Chris is from a small game, don't know if you heard of it call Resident Evil
X-23 is from Marvel and she is a clone of wolverine
The eyeball guy is not from sonic since that is SEGA, he is from marvel and is one of doctor strange enemies.
Maximilian is fighting game content and and yes there is UMVC3 tournaments
If you see a Nintendo character in a game that isn’t clearly or explicitly Nintendo owned…it’s a mod bro
2:30 It's not as old as you, OHHHHH GOTTEM
Oh boy! Max has been introduced. You know what that means! BOSS RAGE reactions!
Asura's Wrath?
@@crcoghill yes. But I was referring in general to the whole series
As someone who’s super invested in the FGC to the point of being a small competitor, it’s weirdly refreshing to see someone new to the genre react to one of my favorite stupid games of all time lmao
God dammit Duck, Lythero said Xbox 360 controllers and you held up 3 xbox one controllers
The reason almost nobody in this game resembles their MCU counterparts is because this game came out in Nov of 2011. The only films in the MCU at that point were the first two Iron Mans, The incredible Hulk, Thor, and Captain America. The last two came out during mid 2011, so neither would've been out early enough to have an impact on development. This game depicts a Marvel that predates the MCU almost entirely and I love it for that.
Okay, so Capcom is the Japanese game company that is most famous for games like Street Fighter and Resident Evil.
Why Marvel vs. Capcom? Because Capcom made a killer good licensed X-Men fighting game back in the day called X-Men: Children of the Atom. The game went over so well, and fans were practically screaming to see it, so the first crossovergame happened with it's sequel, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, which again went over incredibly well, so the next game expanded the roster to be Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, and the next game started to include Capcom characters other than Street Fighter, and thus Marvel vs. Capcom was born.
Viewtiful joe is a Capcom character from the early 2000's, coming from the best 2.5 side scroller beat em up to ever exist, with the same name, Viewtiful joe. They had 4 or 5 games, it's basically dead and I lament it's death every day.
Also yeah UMVC3 is played at Evo, the big fighting game tournament, to this day.
Joe was based off general movie fans, so the whole game is a love letter to movie culture.
When i heard "who's Viewtiful Joe?" I felt myself age 10 years.
"Why Marvel vs. Capcom?" Time to learn ya boi. Back in the mystical time known as the 90's, Marvel turned to Capcom to make an X-Men fighting game called "Children of the Atom". In CotA, Capcom added the character Akuma from Street Fighter as a guest. Following CotA's success, they then went on to make a game with other Marvel Heroes known simply as "Marvel Super Heroes". Following that, theu decided to rip off the band-aid and go full crossover with X-Men vs. Street Fighter, then Marvel Superheroes Vs. Street Fighter then adding more Capcom characters BESIDES just Street Fighter to become Marvel vs. Capcom.
MvC 1 and ESPECIALLY 2 were some of the most critically acclaimed fighting games of their/all time and people were clamoring for a sequel for years That sequel finally came in the form of Marvel vs Capcom 3. Despite the visual and gamplay updates, the roster was a point of contention due to its signifcantly smaller size compared to MvC2. That would be addressed in ULTIMATE MvC3 which was a double edged sword because while Ultimate 3 did add a whole host of new additions to the base game, people were not too into Capcom's shtick of releasing updated versions of games that they JUST released
After Marvel 3, people once again clamored for a sequel and eventually got one in the form of Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite but that is a story for another time...a story without a happy ending.
Tl;dr: Capcom made a Marvel Fighting game and got permission to mix their own characters afterwards.
Lythero and Maxamillian Dood is the greatest crossover we've had in MAHVAL😂
I'm happy more people are watching this.
"What IS Capcom?"
🤔... 😶... HUH?! Like... WHAT?! That's... Actually, kind of impressive. How do you NOT know what Capcom is?
2:30
I'm only 20 (21 in 20 days ^_^). but hearing someone call a game from 2011 old hit me hard
In the gaming world it’s very old
@@theduckgoesmoo It has way to many polygons to be very old.
So some context to this video or game in general
Umvc is the short version to Ultimate marvel vs capcom, this game brought so many people together because "if fighting game were food MvC is icecream pure unfiltired sugar that brings you hapiness" so yeah its a dream game because its a crossover and its known to be one of the most hype fighting games due to all the over the top energy it has.
Maximillian Dood the final guy from the video is quite the important person in the fighting game community he has always been pretty close with developers and the community, for example he has appeared chilling with Harada (Tekken director) in one of his reaction videos, had involvement in Killer Instinct to the point he helped with the trailers and play testing, and overall a great dood that always love to bring people to fighting games and fighting games to the people (not only fighting games tho, even the people that made the FF7 Remake said that Max's video of happiness from reacting to the trailer inspired them to continue making the best remake possible).
The reason MvC is quite important is because when the game was releasing or released, CAPCOM featured Max guide videos that he was doing with his friends and those videos brought so many people together to learn the game and also to learn about Max (i was one of them, also forgive my bad english im mexican and still quite struggle with grammar)
Also little bit of context MvC is so important that whenever people see assist in any fighting game they will say "Its Mahvel / Its like Mahvel" because this game popularized the team aspect of fighting games, hell this inspired DBFZ as a whole, almost every mechanic from DBFZ is inspired from a mechanic from marvel
Not knowing Viewtiful Joe is actually pretty dang common, sadly. Only like one or two of those games, back before... I wanna say 2004 at the ABSOLUTE latest.
And Capcom's just... Capcom. The fact that they crossed over with Marvel on this scale was a sequence of events that spiraled out from X-Men Vs Street Fighter back in the mid-90s due to the phenomenon popularity both had at the time. It just kept going until the first Marvel Vs Capcom game came out, and fighting games were never the same again.
We still hold out hope for MvC 5. Yes, Infinite was MvC 4, if you don't want to admit it you are a coward.
“Yes infinite was mvc 4 admit it” NEVER!!!!!!
I know about him thanks to the old anime.
@@varietyspiderpage ACCEPT THE TRUTH OF YOUR WORLD'S PRESENT SO WE ALL MAY MOVE FORWARD TOGETHER TOWARDS THE BRIGHTEST OF FUTURES

@@peair2000 it's better than nothing
Well link isn’t capcom is he?
@@theduckgoesmoothats a mod actually
@@theduckgoesmoo No he's from Nintendo
"Was this game like ever like serious - Did they ever do like competitions?"
MvC might be one of the most played competitive fighting games of all time. Its been played competitively by some of the scenes best players for as long as Smash melee has.
Bruh your lack video game knowledge I basically took for granted for most of my life is wild xD good on ya for putting yourself out there and checking out the content tho!
So duck, did you know that in 7:48 daitomodachi made that animation scene
So the story of how MvC came around was that in the 1990s after the comic book crash, Marvel was on the verge of bankruptcy and so was selling the license to all their characters left and right to keep the company afloat. Capcom got the rights to make a series of video games based on the X-Men and the Marvel Superheroes which then later crossed over with their own characters like Street Fighter and Darkstalkers. From then on Marvel vs Capcom was born!
Also that funny little dash that characters keep doing is a technique called plinkdashing. In this game you can dash by pressing two buttons and you can cancel the startup frames of attacks into a dash. So you press L then L+M then L then repeat and you just go flying across the screen, its a key part of this games movement system.
pheonix wright is Capcom by the by.
Viewtiful Joe - a dude gets movie-based superhero powers. I think his transformation catchphrase is "Henshin a go go," or something like that.
Chris - Resident evil protag. The OG Boulder-punching a**hole himself. Re1 is his first game. Re5 is basically him and Wesker seeing who's the bigger Chad.
X-23 is related to Wolverine (daughter?). The only reason I know of her is the second xman movie.
Phoenix Wright is a lawyer who looks for clues and holes in witness testimony to defend his clients. Edgeworth is from the same series, as a protagonist in a few games.
Arthur is the protagonist from ghost and goblins. The game is infamously hard because he is two hits from dead at best in a game with collision damage, and getting the best ending requires not getting hit, at all!
Will add more if still confused.
Henshin a Go Go
@@justsortathere540 oops my bad, will fix, thanks
The reason they made Marvel Vs Capcom is because Capcom made fighting games for Marvel. Which were X-MEN Children of The Atom and Marvel Superheroes. They put Akuma in one of their games, and decided to make a crossover fighting game between them. If your asking that Disney owns Capcom. You must be out of your fucking mind their dude.
Marvel vs Capcom was made during a time before Disney owned Marvel and MvC was the fighting game series up there with mortal Kombat and street fighter but a cool fact Disney has always had a cool relationship with Capcom since Capcom was the development team that has worked on there games since the late 80's Early 90's
In fact here's a list
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Disney_games_by_Capcom
Now a suggestion is check out "the moon theme" from DuckTales and "dr. Wily's fortress stage 2" from mega man 2 they are absolute bangers that Capcom has made back in the day
Capcom are the people that make the ghost n goblins, resident evil, dead rising (where the "FAN-TASTIC!!!" Meme comes from), and course the Phoenix Wright game basically anything in this game that isn't marvel comes from Capcom
9:12 the nappa skin and link are MODS
16:08 oh yes even till this day in fact also It has made it to EVO 2023 line up
20:07 x-23 is wolverine's daughter (yes the wolverine from X-Men which wolverine weapon X and no x-23 isn't her real name)
23:37 Amaterasu is a god like dog from the capcom game Ōkami which is based of the Japanese mythology goddess Amaterasu
25:45 it's a reference to the "Skyler white YO" meme based on the "breaking bad" scene where Skyler meets Jessie for the first time
It pains me whenever I hear anyone ask “who’s Viewtiful Joe?” Criminally underrated character and game franchise man
"Pokemon Emerald Randomizer Nuzlocle, yeah that's a mouthful" oh sweet child you have no idea what you're getting into
You know what I just realized: With the exception of Super Skrull, literally EVERY Marvel character in this game is in a movie or series. Not specifically MCU because X-Men and Dr. Doom, but they've all been put to screen before at least once.
EDIT: Wait, I forgot Nova existed. I don't think he's in the MCU yet.
So allow me to explain, in Marvel vs Capcom 3 there is two sides of the character select "book", one side is Capcom IPs one side is Marvel IPs, you can choose 3 from either both sides, or mix and match when choosing your mains, and the Mechanic known as X-Factor is the most broken mechanic in fighting game history (super high damage which increases for each character lost, health regen, and increased movement speed... It even allows Infinites with 1 character)
Oh, Lythero's other UMVC Lobby Shenanigans are like 7 years old videos now, still insanely funny tho
if you want to see how broken umvc3 is i recommend " UMVC3 is Broken " by TheBrunoZone
i also recommend "Animation Excellence: Phoenix Wright - Lawyer Up" by SugarPunch if you want to see how they turned phoenix into a fighting game character
Boss Rage. Maximillion Dude. Now
Headass "We dont get Marvel vs Dc" yea, we got DC vs Mortal Kombat
Phoenix Wright has a lot of crazy. He has 3 modes. Investigate, he tries to gather good evidence. Trial, he uses that evidence and his movement changes. Turnabout, all moves power up plus has a powerful Level3. The move he was using that you ask is Level1 Objection Overruled, it just flattens both players to level the field mainly to stop combos.
Dude doesn't know capcom, doesn't know max, doesn't know half these characters, only knows Marvel stuff from the movies, I'm surprised he even chose to watch this.
Because he knows lythero and his videos are hilarious. Also, if been watching duck for awhile. no one should be surprise he doesn't know a lot of popular franchises.
I cannot believe you-
... actually, no. That's completely & upsettingly on-brand for you.
Marvel Vs Capcom is a long running Arcade fighter, & is the cornerstone inspiration for almost every 3v3 2d fighter out there. Dragon Ball FighterZ is specifically the same formula as MvC, but with Dragon Ball characters specifically.
"Why is it Marvel vs Capcom specifically? Are they owned by the same people?" First of all, no. No they are not. And secondly, strap into your britches, we're doing a history lesson.
Way back when, in the days of the actual arcade machine rule, Capcom wanted to make another fighting game using their Street Fighter characters, & they wanted it to be a crossover game. Marvel gave Capcom permission to use the X-Men for this new game, & this is where it began: Street Fighter vs X-Men.
This game did VERY well. So well in fact, that they were pressured to make a sequel ASAP. So SFvX-M 2 was made with an expanded roster. Around this time, other crossover fighters of the same premise were being made by Capcom. Most notable was Capcom vs Namco, which used a variety of different characters from a variety of the multitude of IPs both companies made.
Street Fighter vs X-Men 2 was doing great, as expected, but they couldn't really do much more with it do to the limited roster of both respective franchises. There were only so many Street Fighters, & so many X-Men, after all. Marvel decided to cash in with an increased presence & gave them full rights to use ANYONE they owned, rather than limiting them to only the X-Men specifically.
And so do that they did. Capcom followed suit, using more from their franchises besides Street Fighter specifically, though, they would always have a strong presence regardless. And so, the next big hit in the arcade cabinets was ready to launch: Marvel vs Capcom. And it was *_incredible._* The game made so much money that a sequel was demanded even faster than SFvXM was.
Marvel vs Capcom 2 would go on to DEFINE the genre from there on. It became the backbone for Assists, how they functioned, & Team Supers. But the boys at Capcom were still cooking, with ideas for a third entry already stewing.
Several years later, & the masterpiece of Marvel vs Capcom 3 was released to the public. Using the same formula as the previous game with the biggest roster of characters in the franchise. Including a brand new mechanic called "X-Factor" as an homage to the series' beginning. This powerup would be the inspiration for "Sparking" in FighterZ & any other mechanic of similar purpose.
A while later, we received the expansion of the game Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, the game you're currently witnessing, with EVEN MORE CHARACTERS. One of the most notable being Vergil from DMC, carrying the tradition of Vergil only being playable in Special Edition of games lmao.
Marvel vs Capcom is a long lasting crossover fighting game franchise produced by Capcom(owners of games like Mega Man, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Devil May Cry and many more).
Many of the characters who appear are made by Capcom but some of the characters they play have been modded like Nappa Haggar, Link as Task Master, and Vyse as Stryder.
Back in the 90’s Capcom made some Marvel themed arcade games before making a fighting game crossing over their own characters with the Marvel characters, like the street fighter characters and the X-Men. Eventually they took more marvel characters and characters from other capcom properties, such as Darkstalkers, Megaman, and many others, and put them together into the best fighting games ever.
