Agreed. I know Chris G works hard for his wins, but I feel like his opponents have to work twice as hard or more. Even watching this video I'm blown away by the risks and reads Yipes makes to hang in there. When someone beats Chris G, they certainly have earned it.
This is one of the greatest set of matches for UMvC3. Just so much great movement, good hit confirms, good combos, good decisions by both players. I can watch this set over and over and not get tired of it.
Yipes is not only the best commentator in e-sport history by far, he also was the best MvC2 Player, and now became one of the best UMvC3 Players! Awesome dude!
It's not the worst, you need to play very measured, use your special moves to clear the screen while taking space, and have the right assists. A lot of the meta now seems to be counter calling and punishing their main support assist as opposed to heads up fighting Morrigan first, but if you touch and confirm on her definitely just x-factor right away. If you can kill with just one bar even better.
You have to keep in mind that ChrisG is one of the ONLY high level players that consistently wins by keepaway, it's really not as easy as it looks as you constantly have to keep the positioning of your opponent in mind, both played very well I think.
There are no rules in a fighting game. Don't be scrubs and complain about "cheesey moves" and spam plays. Find the pattern, exploit it and then fuck em' up. Otherwise, great play by both players.
I think most people aren't complaining about the strategy, per se. ChrisG is just doing what works and everyone recognizes that. What everyone has a problem with is that it DOES work. When a strategy is ruining the pacing of a game or turning the meta one-dimensional, that usually results in a call for a nerf.
Well you have to remember that these aren't just competitors, they're also showman and they're expected to give the audience new and exciting spectacles. When a tactic like this flattens the gameplay so much that it becomes boring and repetitive to watch, it hurts the community. Floyd Mayweather did this to boxing when every one of his matches just became him retreating, nickel-and-diming his opponents with love taps, and running down the clock. The fact that everyone hates these fighters is no coincidence.
Yeah, this isn't high level play. It's cheese. And top tier players counter it, either because they already know how, or they learn the weaknesses literally in the match. Chris G is what I call "hood nice"... impressed all his homies back on the block, but you're not nice.
Deep Space. The eerie blue-green planet of Aquilae slowly drifts into view. A small speck, orbiting the planet, glints in the light of a near-by star. Suddenly a sleek fighter-type spacecraft settles ominously into the foreground moving swiftly toward the orbiting speck. Two more fighters silently maneuver into battle formation behind the first and then three more craft glide into view. The orbiting speck is actually a gargantuan space fortress which dwarfs the approaching fighters. Fuel pods are jettisoned. The six fighters break off into a power dive attack on the huge fortress. Lazer bolts streak from the fighters creating small explosions on the complex surface of the fort. Return fire catches one of the fighters and it bursts into a million pieces. Another of the craft plows into a gun emplacement jutting from the fortress causing a hideous series of chain reaction explosions. The chaos of battle echoes through the vastness of space. It is the thirty-third century, a period of civil wars in the galaxy. A rebel princess, with her family, her retainers, and the clan treasure, is being pursued. If they can cross territory controlled by the Empire and reach a friendly planet, they will be saved. The Sovereign knows this, and posts a reward for the capture of the princess. She is being guarded by one of her generals, (Luke Skywalker) and it is he who leads her on the long and dangerous journey that follows. They take along with them two hundred pounds of the greatly treasured "aura spice", and also two Imperial bureaucrats, whom the general has captured. The two terrified, bickering bureaucrats crash land on Aquilae while trying to flee the battle of the space fortress. They accidently discover a small container of the priceless "aura spice" and are rummaging around the rocks pushing and pulling each other trying to find more when they are discovered by Luke Skywalker and taken to his camp. The princess and the general are disguised as farmers, and the bureaucrats join their party with the intention of stealing their "land speeder" and "aura spice". It doesn't take them too long to realize the general isn't a farmer and that they are captives about to embark on a dangerous mission. The two bureaucrats are essentially comic relief inserted among the general seriousness of the adventure. The small group in their sleek, white, two-man "land speeders" travel across the wastelands of Aquilae, headed for the space port city of Gordon, where they hope to get a spacecraft that will take them to the friendly planet of Ophuchi. At a desolate rest stop, the rebels are stopped and questioned by an Imperial patrol. Apparently satisfied, the captian lets the group continue on their way, but a short distance into the wilderness, they are attacked by the patrol. The Imperial patrol of twelve men is no match for the incredibly skilled and powerful general, who makes short work of the enemy. One of the two-man "speeders" is destroyed in the fight and the bureaucrats must ride on the back of the remaining one, which slows the group down considerably. They drive into a storm, run low on food and water, but eventually make it to the ruin of a religious temple. In the temple they discover a rebel band of ten boys (aged 15 to 18) who are planning an attack on one of the Imperial outposts. The boys laugh in anticipation of the blow they will strike the Empire in the name of the princess. They all stop laughing, but the laughing continues and they look around in consternation. Into the sanctuary ambles Skywalker, scratching himself, amused at the idealism of the youths. He barely glances at them. The contrast between the boy rebels with their terse nods, their meaningful glances, and Skywalker, a real general, a real man could not be greater. The boys plead to join the party to protect the princess, but the general refuses, and insists they all return to their homes. They say they have no place to go and begin to follow the party across the wasteland. One night the party is attacked by one of the large beasts that roam the plains, and is eventually killed by the boy rebels. The general reluctantly accepts the presence of the boys, and allows them to join the group. The general, one of the bureaucrats, and one of the boys, venture into a shabby cantina on the outskirts of the space port, looking for the rebel contact who will help them get a spacecraft. The murky little den is filled with a startling array of weird and erotic Aliens laughing and drinking at the bar. The bureaucrat and the boy are both terrified as the general orders two drinks and questions the bartender about the rebel contact man. A group of bullies begin to taunt and ridicule the boy. Skywalker attempts to avoid a confrontation, but worse comes to worse, and he is forced to fight. With a flash of light, his lazer sword is out. An are lies on the ground, one of the bullies lies double, slashed from chin to groin and Skywalker, with quiet dignity, replaces his sword in its sheath. The entire fight has lasted a matter of seconds. Skywalker, the princess, and their party make contact with the rebel underground, but not before an Imperial spy, who followed them from the cantina, reports their plans to the city governor. The rebels enter the space port to board a trader's ship, whose captain is friendly toward the rebels. The group doesn't realize until it is too late, that it is a trap. Guards pounce on them from everywhere. The princess, the bureaucrats, and the boys run for a ship while Skywalker holds off the guards. They narrowly escape in a stolen space fighter and lose themselves among the giant Imperial fleet looking for the rebels. The general orbits his ship further and further away from the planet, until he feels it is safe to head out into deep space toward Ophuchi. As he maneuvers to break out of orbit, a patrol craft hails the ship and requests to board and search her. Skywalker trys to discourage them, but the patrol becomes suspicious. Skywalker makes a run for it and the patrol craft fires on them. The rebels return the fire and destroy the patrol craft. The stolen Imperial ship races toward the safety of deep space as twelve fighter craft converge on the destroyed patrol and give chase. A raging air-to-air battle and chase begins which continues halfway across the galaxy. The rebel boys shoot down many Imperial ships under the harsh and uncompromising instructions of the general. A few of the boys are angered at his cold and relentless directions, although they grow to respect him when they begin to see the results of his training. Their ship is hit several times and begins to break up, causing them to slow down. They maneuver the crippled fighter to an asteroid in an attempt to hide from their pursuers. The trick works, but as they resume their trek across the galaxy, the ship is rocked by a series of explosions and plummets toward the forbidden planet of Yavin. Everyone jettisons safely away from the doomed craft before it explodes, and using rocket pack, slowly drift to the foreboding surface. The general, the princess, the two bureaucrats with the "aura spice", and one of the rebel boys regroup and set up camp. When only one other boy shows up, the group decides to split up. The general, princess, and bureaucrats head for what appears to be a city, while the two boys go off looking for their comrades. They are watched by a giant furry Alien, who quietly disappears into the foliage. Skywalker and his party race along a narrow pathway riding "jet-sticks" fashioned from their rescue packs. They round a bend and see the way is blocked by three or four Aliens, riding large bird-like creatures. The general instantly changes direction on to a side path, the others follow close behind, chased by the Aliens. Skywalker drops behind the others and begins shooting at the Aliens with his lazer gun. The Aliens sling a dart-like object at Skywalker as they rush along the road. The general kills the last Alien just as he reaches the gate to the Alien camp. Skywalker cannot curb his "jet-stick" in time and the momentum carries him directly into the enemies' hands. The group is surrounded by Aliens. Skywalker jumps off his "jet-stick" and takes a defense stance. The Aliens give him room. They seem puzzled by these intruders and jabber to themselves. Two leaders carry on a heated argument. Finally one storms off in disgust and the other summons a guard who steps forward with a large spear in his hand. Skywalker and the Alien stand surveying each other. The Alien makes a lunge, the general counters, and the fight begins. A desperate fight ensues, but eventually Skywalker wins by cutting the Alien in half with his lazer sword. At this, all the Aliens worked into a frenzy mob, carry the general off and throw him over a thousand foot crevasse into a boiling lake. The general's sure death, terrifies the bureaucrats and moves the princess. The Aliens lead them to a small hut where they are imprisoned. Unknown to everyone, the general grabs an overhanging vine on his descent and swings to safety. He starts back to rescue the others when he encounters an Alien. Skywalker starts to attack, but the Alien drops to the ground jabbering and carrying on. The general recognizes the Alien as the one who argued with the leader, who ordered his death. The general trys to communicate with the Alien, but all he can make out is that the creature worships him and wants to take him some place urgently. The Alien leads Skywalker to a clearing where a platoon of the Imperial guard is lounging, obviously waiting for someone or something. The general jumps undercover as a herd of Aliens arrive with the princess and bureaucrats in tow. A trade is made and the platoon leaves in a "speed tank" with the three captives. The general tries to follow, but is unable to keep up. The Alien leads Skywalker to a small farm where he discovers the boy rebels are waiting for him. The farm is owned by a cantankerous old farmer who is married to an Alien. He tells the group that he hates the Empire and shows them the location of an outpost where they might have taken the princess. The general and his army of youthful warriors plan an attack on the small Imperial outpost. They use surprise and the general's rigorous training to overcome the enemy and capture the outpost. they discover the princess has been taken to Alderaan, the capitol of the Empire. They make plans to rescue the princess from right under the nose of the Emperor. The only craft at the outpost capable of intergalactic travel is a squadron of one-man devil fighters, which the general trains the kids to use. When they feel they are ready, they strike out toward the center of the galaxy and the heart of the Empire. Disguised as Imperial rangers, the small armada flies right through the gates of the impressive city-planet of Alderaan and stops at the prison complex. After overcoming a series of difficult barriers and traps they find the princess and free her. An alarm sounds. The rebels are forced to fight their way out of the prison with "multiple lazer guns" and swords. A few of the boys are killed, but most of them make it to their spacecraft followed by Skywalker and the princess. They break through a ring of Imperial ships attempting to stop them and escape into deep space. The princess' arrival on Ophuchi is celebrated by a huge parade, honoring the general and his small band. The princess' uncle, ruler of Ophuchi, rewards the bureaucrats, who for the first time see the princess revealed as her true goddess-like self. The general commissions the "boy rebels" into the princess' special guard. After the ceremony is over, and the festivities have ended, the drunken bureaucrats stagger down an empty street arm in arm realizing that they have been adventuring with demigods. THE END ?
If you think chris g isn't good I suggest you check pretty much every video where he doesn't even play this team and destroys. Hell there's a vid where he beats fooblat with iron fist. Chris G is an immense player wether or not you like this soul fist spam tactic and believe me I hate this shit just as much as the next guy. Infact the only reason I came back to watch this is because it's a match Chris G loses.
DJ Huoshen - I just wanted to say thank you for commentating this event! Being your first UMvC3 major, you did an outstanding job and your knowledge of the game is remarkable! I hope to see you return soon! And congrats to IFC YIPES!!! =)
I agree with Oniichaan1 on this. Chris G was the only guy who rocked Ryu back in the day. That character had one really bad overhead and a tatsu crossup before Ultimate and that was it. Chris G not only played it he INVENTED proper Ryu play. He coupled him with Wesker lowshot to create a high low mixup, produced the most godly air throw teching, and used Wesker OTG to create the longest Ryu combos ever seen in this game. G stands for "genius". The guy is incredible at whatever he wants to use.
Changing your winning strategy is making it harder to win. He's been doing this for months. It's quite fun to watch his Morrigan, actually. He's doing new things with her every tournament (such as incorporating that missile super into his game). But there will always be Shell Kick and Soul Fist spam.
To everyone who hates on ChrisG, who says all ChrisG does is spam soulfist and it has no skill. Then do something. It has an answer. Answer it. Its not even a lack of skill. its a precise skill and art. I'm not a ChrisG fanboy by any means. But haters need to chill just cuz they can't handle
Im not the biggest fan of Chris G's Morrigan zoning (opens up old salt wounds of Sagats Tiger Tiger madness in SFll) but look how he gets in on Yipes with Morrigan by shutting down Dantes mobility completely @ 14:33, thats just poetry, you cant hate that!
For example. In one of the matches in this set, Yipes as Vergil blocked the Hidden Missiles from Dr.Doom while Vergil had swords out, Morrigan crossed Vergil up, and started attacking him while he blocking the missiles. Morrigan did not get hit by the swords because Vergil was in blockstun from blocking the missiles. Morrigan got a free block string because Vergil's swords would not hit her because he was blocking the missiles at the same time.
A good tip is try playing with every character to know their ins and outs, so you can know what supers they can do and how to counter or avoid them. Try switch up your assists depending on the situation against rush down or zone out teams. But in all honesty online is a different kinda game from offline, you gotta keep trying to compensate for the lag and timing in the delay of playing online. I hope that helped out
The Morrigan stuff is the same as all the other stuff that people were terrified of initially. Dark Phoenix Level 3 X-Factor used to make people wet themselves, now there's tons of ways around her. People were all "ohhhh noooooooooo" when Dark Weskers started popping up. Now people are adapting to Morrigan. As soon as someone figures out how to play Ghost Rider effectively, we'll have something else to worry about.
Wow. Didn't expect to have a civilized debate on the internet. GG In any case, its great to see Yipes finally get that UMVC major under his belt. I hope he participates in more tourneys so we can finally see someone challenge Chris G because, sorry to say, MarlinPie just isnt getting it done.
Yipes just made me wanna pick up this game again!!! You can beat all of that lame ass zoning if you increase the pressure! Great to see this! Thank you!!
If anybody ever plays Hisen-ko anymore, you would know that Hisen-ko has one of the best projectiles in the game, Henkyo ki. It's a projectile reflector and a projectile itself. No matter how many projectiles come at it, it stays there until a certain amount of time it has for it to dissapear. As you can see also Morrigan has good rushdown, (Not as good as like wolverine, but good), and Phoenix wright, Jesus mode.
Don't forget FChamp. Not only did he beat him in EVO (I think) and even though he lost the FT15 with ChrisG, no one so far has been able to win against ChrisG as consistently as FChamp. winning 10 of the 15 shows that he knows how to get around it, and he does so quite frequently.
thats great too, the game will continue to evolve as players adapt. new paradigms will develop, be overcome and so on until maybe the game ends up like mvc2, but we've got a long while until the tiers and teams really solidify.
chris g didn't understand a single frame of what happened LOOOL. Yipes is not just a player with technic, but is someone who thinks ultra fast and with a superb strategy and variety of playing, i like his gameplay.
Agree, he only uses the technique that is far and crush into it only if he has a chance. But Yipes plays very aggressive, I really like the style of what's he's doing, just bold and fast reaction on any corner in the game.
this is a great match, I like how chris g uses morrigan to full potential an it brings out the true skill in other players like yipes, in order for him to beat chris g he had to play his best an it just goes to show you that there is no best player in the world theres just a lot of high lvl players that are still getting better, competitions like this bring out the best of the players
Chris G is the east coast hopeful in Evo and every major for me. I like the fingercramp crew but I think the community as a whole wanted yipes to get a win. Respect to both players.
Yipes literally used all the moves on the book for Vergil and Dante. I mean all the moves the characters have, he used, and used them well. Yipes is God like!
It's not easy to kill morrigan in one combo. I don't know how you're not seeing this. Morrigan can make everything safe with her fly cancels. The only unsafe move is her launch. Not only that, but she has a tiny hit box, moves with disjointed hurtboxes, a good runaway game, a meter building special, a power up super that ensures lockdown, and massive chip damage. Also paired with Doom missiles, combos to kill are interrupted all the time and shuts down your air options.
While I agree that watching Chris G's MorriDoom can get a little boring, I REALLY like watching it. It's so cool to see his setups for certain situations. AND SOME OF THE COMBOS HE'S DOING THESE DAYS ARE FUCKING AMAZING. MY GAWD.
He's not suggesting that chrisg should make it harder on himself. He's suggesting that he find something equally fun for himself that isn't boring for viewers to watch. Really, is this hard to comprehend?
4:40 you're right but wrong at the same time. Yipes could not link the cr.H into Lunar phase so he went for j.d.H but he could have just done lunar phase without adding the additional cr.H into it and it would have linked.
Yipes is so good, can't imagine how much better he would be if you would just look straight at the screen rather than strain his eyes to look up from and head down position.
Vergil is top tier thanks to the many cross ups and his speed, also has an excellent guard with the swords as well as stacking hits with the combos. He pretty much is a game changer when in the hands of someone who can time a single hit right, cause his combos kill. He's an Ace
I always have the highest of respect for dante players. Imo dante is the highest Skill Cap charc. on the whole UMVC3 roster. He has so many combos, and abilities, but such little damage on them. So actually doing a 1 touch kill like yipes did on that morigana requires the craziest combos ever seen to mankind. And yipes does them... in a tourn.
![[BT] Marlinpie vs. [BT] IFC Yipes FT10 @ THE BROKENTIER SUITE - NEC XIII](/img/n.gif)
This video made Yipes my favorite UMVC3 player. He handled the cheapness with swag and inventiveness
Agreed. I know Chris G works hard for his wins, but I feel like his opponents have to work twice as hard or more. Even watching this video I'm blown away by the risks and reads Yipes makes to hang in there. When someone beats Chris G, they certainly have earned it.
10 years ago. Legends clashed here.
Do yourselves a favor: Pause right at 00:14 for an EPIC Yipes face
This is one of the greatest set of matches for UMvC3. Just so much great movement, good hit confirms, good combos, good decisions by both players. I can watch this set over and over and not get tired of it.
I swear, I could just watch a video of Yipes wavedashing and that'd make my day.
Im back in 2021 and i miss this game so much. This is one of my favorite grand finals of all time
Yipes is not only the best commentator in e-sport history by far, he also was the best MvC2 Player, and now became one of the best UMvC3 Players! Awesome dude!
Justin is better
@@LarryRaNelson Cool that you responded 9 years later 😁
These were simpler times when Dante was considered to fight morrigan well
It's not the worst, you need to play very measured, use your special moves to clear the screen while taking space, and have the right assists. A lot of the meta now seems to be counter calling and punishing their main support assist as opposed to heads up fighting Morrigan first, but if you touch and confirm on her definitely just x-factor right away. If you can kill with just one bar even better.
Yipes.
With ChrisG dominating as of late, I like to come back here to see him lose. LOL.
man 2012 umvc3 was some really good shit. so much drama about morrigan/doom lol
23:08 high five deny...left a brother hangin...
Dante is such a fun player to watch. Yipes is definitely one of the best players to use him
Yipes the style gawd. The peoples champ. Still dope to watch even now
Yipes and Chris G, both amazing players and great guys. Both of them have my respect. Congratulations Yipes.
You have to keep in mind that ChrisG is one of the ONLY high level players that consistently wins by keepaway, it's really not as easy as it looks as you constantly have to keep the positioning of your opponent in mind, both played very well I think.
IFC Yipes is so good, I knew he was sick from time ago !! The way he plays Dante is so good and he showed it in this !! Well done congrats.
"Happy birthday" is when you catch an assist in a combo
That second match was the best i've ever seen yipes play, and the best Dante play i've seen in ages.
This shit is crazy man. LOVE THE GAMEPLAY. Man I have a lot of training to do.
and that was 2012 bro, things have changed a ton since then
If you look at the post after, I corrected it to "and" instead of "not". The first match is the Spencer team, the proceeding ones are the Dante team.
i love how after the first match when morrigan died and that team won, dr.doom came in like "all me"
My two favorite players duking it out in a sick set. Probably the best Marvel 3 set so far.
Congrats, Yipes, and good luck at SB.
There are no rules in a fighting game. Don't be scrubs and complain about "cheesey moves" and spam plays. Find the pattern, exploit it and then fuck em' up. Otherwise, great play by both players.
I think most people aren't complaining about the strategy, per se. ChrisG is just doing what works and everyone recognizes that. What everyone has a problem with is that it DOES work. When a strategy is ruining the pacing of a game or turning the meta one-dimensional, that usually results in a call for a nerf.
Stephen Jeter yeah godlike comment its mahvel bby
Well you have to remember that these aren't just competitors, they're also showman and they're expected to give the audience new and exciting spectacles. When a tactic like this flattens the gameplay so much that it becomes boring and repetitive to watch, it hurts the community. Floyd Mayweather did this to boxing when every one of his matches just became him retreating, nickel-and-diming his opponents with love taps, and running down the clock. The fact that everyone hates these fighters is no coincidence.
They aren't fucking showman. No one enters a tournament to entertain others, its to win.
Justin Wong did the same thing too.
To quote Inception: "Of course its possible; its just bloody difficult."
I really hate that Morrigan illusion Hyper. I can't believe that never got nerfed. It's damn near the only thing Chris G relies on.
fuckin' a well told
Yeah, this isn't high level play. It's cheese. And top tier players counter it, either because they already know how, or they learn the weaknesses literally in the match. Chris G is what I call "hood nice"... impressed all his homies back on the block, but you're not nice.
Best Marvel 3 match I've ever seen. props to both of em
Looking back at this era of Marvel, thank God for Chris G. If it wasn't for him, I dont think Marvel would have gotten as competitive as it did
one of the most high level grand finals of umvc3 so far
YES YIPESS!! well deserved win
Commentary or not this is the best copy I've seen on you tube as of yet.
i dont even know what the fuck is going on.
back to SF
hahaha it's 3 on 3 with some assists helping out
Deep Space.
The eerie blue-green planet of Aquilae slowly drifts
into view. A small speck, orbiting the planet, glints
in the light of a near-by star.
Suddenly a sleek fighter-type spacecraft settles ominously
into the foreground moving swiftly toward the orbiting
speck. Two more fighters silently maneuver into battle
formation behind the first and then three more craft
glide into view. The orbiting speck is actually a
gargantuan space fortress which dwarfs the approaching
fighters. Fuel pods are jettisoned. The six fighters
break off into a power dive attack on the huge fortress.
Lazer bolts streak from the fighters creating small
explosions on the complex surface of the fort. Return
fire catches one of the fighters and it bursts into a
million pieces. Another of the craft plows into a gun
emplacement jutting from the fortress causing a hideous
series of chain reaction explosions. The chaos of
battle echoes through the vastness of space.
It is the thirty-third century, a period of civil wars
in the galaxy. A rebel princess, with her family,
her retainers, and the clan treasure, is being pursued.
If they can cross territory controlled by the Empire
and reach a friendly planet, they will be saved. The
Sovereign knows this, and posts a reward for the capture
of the princess.
She is being guarded by one of her generals, (Luke
Skywalker) and it is he who leads her on the long and
dangerous journey that follows. They take along with
them two hundred pounds of the greatly treasured "aura
spice", and also two Imperial bureaucrats, whom the
general has captured.
The two terrified, bickering bureaucrats crash land
on Aquilae while trying to flee the battle of the
space fortress. They accidently discover a small
container of the priceless "aura spice" and are rummaging
around the rocks pushing and pulling each other trying
to find more when they are discovered by Luke Skywalker
and taken to his camp.
The princess and the general are disguised as farmers,
and the bureaucrats join their party with the intention
of stealing their "land speeder" and "aura spice".
It doesn't take them too long to realize the general
isn't a farmer and that they are captives about to
embark on a dangerous mission. The two bureaucrats
are essentially comic relief inserted among the general
seriousness of the adventure.
The small group in their sleek, white, two-man "land
speeders" travel across the wastelands of Aquilae,
headed for the space port city of Gordon, where they
hope to get a spacecraft that will take them to the
friendly planet of Ophuchi.
At a desolate rest stop, the rebels are stopped and
questioned by an Imperial patrol. Apparently satisfied,
the captian lets the group continue on their way, but
a short distance into the wilderness, they are attacked
by the patrol. The Imperial patrol of twelve men is no
match for the incredibly skilled and powerful general,
who makes short work of the enemy.
One of the two-man "speeders" is destroyed in the fight
and the bureaucrats must ride on the back of the remaining
one, which slows the group down considerably. They
drive into a storm, run low on food and water, but
eventually make it to the ruin of a religious temple.
In the temple they discover a rebel band of ten boys
(aged 15 to 18) who are planning an attack on one of
the Imperial outposts. The boys laugh in anticipation
of the blow they will strike the Empire in the name of
the princess. They all stop laughing, but the laughing
continues and they look around in consternation. Into
the sanctuary ambles Skywalker, scratching himself,
amused at the idealism of the youths. He barely
glances at them. The contrast between the boy rebels
with their terse nods, their meaningful glances, and
Skywalker, a real general, a real man could not be
greater. The boys plead to join the party to protect
the princess, but the general refuses, and insists
they all return to their homes. They say they have
no place to go and begin to follow the party across
the wasteland.
One night the party is attacked by one of the large
beasts that roam the plains, and is eventually killed
by the boy rebels. The general reluctantly accepts
the presence of the boys, and allows them to join
the group.
The general, one of the bureaucrats, and one of the
boys, venture into a shabby cantina on the outskirts
of the space port, looking for the rebel contact who
will help them get a spacecraft. The murky little
den is filled with a startling array of weird and
erotic Aliens laughing and drinking at the bar. The
bureaucrat and the boy are both terrified as the general
orders two drinks and questions the bartender about
the rebel contact man. A group of bullies begin to
taunt and ridicule the boy. Skywalker attempts to avoid
a confrontation, but worse comes to worse, and he is
forced to fight. With a flash of light, his lazer
sword is out. An are lies on the ground, one of the
bullies lies double, slashed from chin to groin and
Skywalker, with quiet dignity, replaces his sword in
its sheath. The entire fight has lasted a matter of
seconds.
Skywalker, the princess, and their party make contact
with the rebel underground, but not before an Imperial
spy, who followed them from the cantina, reports their
plans to the city governor. The rebels enter the
space port to board a trader's ship, whose captain
is friendly toward the rebels. The group doesn't
realize until it is too late, that it is a trap. Guards
pounce on them from everywhere. The princess, the
bureaucrats, and the boys run for a ship while Skywalker
holds off the guards. They narrowly escape in a stolen
space fighter and lose themselves among the giant
Imperial fleet looking for the rebels.
The general orbits his ship further and further away
from the planet, until he feels it is safe to head out
into deep space toward Ophuchi. As he maneuvers to
break out of orbit, a patrol craft hails the ship and
requests to board and search her. Skywalker trys to
discourage them, but the patrol becomes suspicious.
Skywalker makes a run for it and the patrol craft
fires on them. The rebels return the fire and destroy
the patrol craft. The stolen Imperial ship races toward
the safety of deep space as twelve fighter craft converge
on the destroyed patrol and give chase.
A raging air-to-air battle and chase begins which
continues halfway across the galaxy. The rebel boys
shoot down many Imperial ships under the harsh and
uncompromising instructions of the general. A few of
the boys are angered at his cold and relentless directions,
although they grow to respect him when they begin to
see the results of his training. Their ship is hit
several times and begins to break up, causing them
to slow down. They maneuver the crippled fighter to
an asteroid in an attempt to hide from their pursuers.
The trick works, but as they resume their trek across
the galaxy, the ship is rocked by a series of explosions
and plummets toward the forbidden planet of Yavin.
Everyone jettisons safely away from the doomed craft
before it explodes, and using rocket pack, slowly
drift to the foreboding surface. The general, the princess,
the two bureaucrats with the "aura spice", and one of
the rebel boys regroup and set up camp. When only
one other boy shows up, the group decides to split up.
The general, princess, and bureaucrats head for what
appears to be a city, while the two boys go off looking
for their comrades. They are watched by a giant furry
Alien, who quietly disappears into the foliage.
Skywalker and his party race along a narrow pathway
riding "jet-sticks" fashioned from their rescue packs.
They round a bend and see the way is blocked by three
or four Aliens, riding large bird-like creatures. The
general instantly changes direction on to a side path,
the others follow close behind, chased by the Aliens.
Skywalker drops behind the others and begins shooting
at the Aliens with his lazer gun. The Aliens sling a
dart-like object at Skywalker as they rush along the
road. The general kills the last Alien just as he
reaches the gate to the Alien camp. Skywalker cannot
curb his "jet-stick" in time and the momentum carries
him directly into the enemies' hands.
The group is surrounded by Aliens. Skywalker jumps
off his "jet-stick" and takes a defense stance. The
Aliens give him room. They seem puzzled by these
intruders and jabber to themselves. Two leaders carry
on a heated argument. Finally one storms off in disgust
and the other summons a guard who steps forward with
a large spear in his hand. Skywalker and the Alien
stand surveying each other. The Alien makes a lunge,
the general counters, and the fight begins. A desperate
fight ensues, but eventually Skywalker wins by cutting
the Alien in half with his lazer sword. At this, all
the Aliens worked into a frenzy mob, carry the general
off and throw him over a thousand foot crevasse into
a boiling lake.
The general's sure death, terrifies the bureaucrats
and moves the princess. The Aliens lead them to a
small hut where they are imprisoned. Unknown to everyone,
the general grabs an overhanging vine on his descent
and swings to safety. He starts back to rescue the
others when he encounters an Alien. Skywalker starts
to attack, but the Alien drops to the ground jabbering
and carrying on. The general recognizes the Alien as
the one who argued with the leader, who ordered his death.
The general trys to communicate with the Alien, but
all he can make out is that the creature worships him
and wants to take him some place urgently.
The Alien leads Skywalker to a clearing where a platoon
of the Imperial guard is lounging, obviously waiting
for someone or something. The general jumps undercover
as a herd of Aliens arrive with the princess and
bureaucrats in tow. A trade is made and the platoon
leaves in a "speed tank" with the three captives. The
general tries to follow, but is unable to keep up.
The Alien leads Skywalker to a small farm where he discovers
the boy rebels are waiting for him. The farm is owned
by a cantankerous old farmer who is married to an Alien.
He tells the group that he hates the Empire and shows them the
location of an outpost where they might have
taken the princess.
The general and his army of youthful warriors plan
an attack on the small Imperial outpost. They use
surprise and the general's rigorous training to overcome
the enemy and capture the outpost. they discover the
princess has been taken to Alderaan, the capitol of
the Empire. They make plans to rescue the princess
from right under the nose of the Emperor. The only
craft at the outpost capable of intergalactic travel
is a squadron of one-man devil fighters, which the
general trains the kids to use. When they feel they
are ready, they strike out toward the center of the
galaxy and the heart of the Empire.
Disguised as Imperial rangers, the small armada flies
right through the gates of the impressive city-planet
of Alderaan and stops at the prison complex. After
overcoming a series of difficult barriers and traps
they find the princess and free her.
An alarm sounds. The rebels are forced to fight their
way out of the prison with "multiple lazer guns" and
swords. A few of the boys are killed, but most of
them make it to their spacecraft followed by Skywalker
and the princess. They break through a ring of Imperial
ships attempting to stop them and escape into deep
space.
The princess' arrival on Ophuchi is celebrated by a
huge parade, honoring the general and his small band.
The princess' uncle, ruler of Ophuchi, rewards the
bureaucrats, who for the first time see the princess
revealed as her true goddess-like self. The general
commissions the "boy rebels" into the princess' special
guard. After the ceremony is over, and the festivities
have ended, the drunken bureaucrats stagger down an
empty street arm in arm realizing that they have been
adventuring with demigods.
THE END ?
If you think chris g isn't good I suggest you check pretty much every video where he doesn't even play this team and destroys. Hell there's a vid where he beats fooblat with iron fist. Chris G is an immense player wether or not you like this soul fist spam tactic and believe me I hate this shit just as much as the next guy. Infact the only reason I came back to watch this is because it's a match Chris G loses.
In mvc3 he was. He's only recently started making top and I believe this is his first major tournament win
i have never been so excited in UMVC3 since its been released. Good shit IFC Yipes!
DJ Huoshen - I just wanted to say thank you for commentating this event! Being your first UMvC3 major, you did an outstanding job and your knowledge of the game is remarkable! I hope to see you return soon!
And congrats to IFC YIPES!!! =)
*Ignores rest of comments*
Huge IFC Yipes fan. SO happy he finally got this win. He deserves it. BROKEN TIER!!
I agree with Oniichaan1 on this. Chris G was the only guy who rocked Ryu back in the day. That character had one really bad overhead and a tatsu crossup before Ultimate and that was it. Chris G not only played it he INVENTED proper Ryu play. He coupled him with Wesker lowshot to create a high low mixup, produced the most godly air throw teching, and used Wesker OTG to create the longest Ryu combos ever seen in this game.
G stands for "genius". The guy is incredible at whatever he wants to use.
Yipes deserved that win 100%. Sick mixups, sick play, sick control of his characters, no cheap tactics, just straight GOING IN.
Yipe's presence of mind is amazing. Fuck focusing on commentary, this guy has stepped up his game to a terrifying level.
Changing your winning strategy is making it harder to win. He's been doing this for months. It's quite fun to watch his Morrigan, actually. He's doing new things with her every tournament (such as incorporating that missile super into his game). But there will always be Shell Kick and Soul Fist spam.
This battle is so hype I saw this 4 times already but still FEED ME MORE.
To everyone who hates on ChrisG, who says all ChrisG does is spam soulfist and it has no skill. Then do something. It has an answer. Answer it. Its not even a lack of skill. its a precise skill and art. I'm not a ChrisG fanboy by any means. But haters need to chill just cuz they can't handle
Im not the biggest fan of Chris G's Morrigan zoning (opens up old salt wounds of Sagats Tiger Tiger madness in SFll) but look how he gets in on Yipes with Morrigan by shutting down Dantes mobility completely @ 14:33, thats just poetry, you cant hate that!
For example. In one of the matches in this set, Yipes as Vergil blocked the Hidden Missiles from Dr.Doom while Vergil had swords out, Morrigan crossed Vergil up, and started attacking him while he blocking the missiles. Morrigan did not get hit by the swords because Vergil was in blockstun from blocking the missiles. Morrigan got a free block string because Vergil's swords would not hit her because he was blocking the missiles at the same time.
A good tip is try playing with every character to know their ins and outs, so you can know what supers they can do and how to counter or avoid them. Try switch up your assists depending on the situation against rush down or zone out teams. But in all honesty online is a different kinda game from offline, you gotta keep trying to compensate for the lag and timing in the delay of playing online. I hope that helped out
The Morrigan stuff is the same as all the other stuff that people were terrified of initially. Dark Phoenix Level 3 X-Factor used to make people wet themselves, now there's tons of ways around her. People were all "ohhhh noooooooooo" when Dark Weskers started popping up. Now people are adapting to Morrigan. As soon as someone figures out how to play Ghost Rider effectively, we'll have something else to worry about.
I bet Yipes playing DMC is like crazy poetry, motherfuck that was beautiful stuff by the Spardas.
Mag May Cry tho 😳
I'm coming here to watch after hearing about this from No Frills, wow yipes is so much thinner now. Crazy
One of the most exciting, highest level matches of Marvel 3 I've ever seen :O
Wow. Didn't expect to have a civilized debate on the internet. GG
In any case, its great to see Yipes finally get that UMVC major under his belt. I hope he participates in more tourneys so we can finally see someone challenge Chris G because, sorry to say, MarlinPie just isnt getting it done.
Yipes nowadays looks like he dropped a Yipes worth of weight
Obviously everyone was cheering for Yipes. GO YIPES! Thank you for showing everyone that Dante is still awesome. Best Dante ever!
HOLY SHIT! Match of the year. Good shit Yipes!
Yipes just made me wanna pick up this game again!!! You can beat all of that lame ass zoning if you increase the pressure! Great to see this! Thank you!!
If anybody ever plays Hisen-ko anymore, you would know that Hisen-ko has one of the best projectiles in the game, Henkyo ki. It's a projectile reflector and a projectile itself. No matter how many projectiles come at it, it stays there until a certain amount of time it has for it to dissapear. As you can see also Morrigan has good rushdown, (Not as good as like wolverine, but good), and Phoenix wright, Jesus mode.
Good to see Yipes up there. Good sport and a God-like commentator.
Don't forget FChamp. Not only did he beat him in EVO (I think) and even though he lost the FT15 with ChrisG, no one so far has been able to win against ChrisG as consistently as FChamp. winning 10 of the 15 shows that he knows how to get around it, and he does so quite frequently.
thats great too, the game will continue to evolve as players adapt. new paradigms will develop, be overcome and so on until maybe the game ends up like mvc2, but we've got a long while until the tiers and teams really solidify.
chris g didn't understand a single frame of what happened LOOOL. Yipes is not just a player with technic, but is someone who thinks ultra fast and with a superb strategy and variety of playing, i like his gameplay.
YIPES! By far my favorite MvC3 player.
14:55 VANISH
Agree, he only uses the technique that is far and crush into it only if he has a chance. But Yipes plays very aggressive, I really like the style of what's he's doing, just bold and fast reaction on any corner in the game.
Hmm, I don't know. But didn't Justin beat Chris G in CEO 2012 too? Though I don't know when did CEO take place. Excuse me for that. :(
You can check lobby there's almost always a stream up ^^
this is a great match, I like how chris g uses morrigan to full potential an it brings out the true skill in other players like yipes, in order for him to beat chris g he had to play his best an it just goes to show you that there is no best player in the world theres just a lot of high lvl players that are still getting better, competitions like this bring out the best of the players
The two most respected players in the East Marlin is close too, great set.
only 3 words needed
I Love Yipes
I thought he always deserved to win at least 1 of these tournaments, and he finally did :D
9:08 BEAUTIFUL counter by Yipes
He already knows Chris is gonna spam
Yipes really does have one of the best Dante's I've ever seen.
Dang, that was a sweet matchup! ChrisG, always a beast. Yipes, man, solid gameplay.
Spooky delivers!
Chris G is the east coast hopeful in Evo and every major for me. I like the fingercramp crew but I think the community as a whole wanted yipes to get a win. Respect to both players.
I still get so hype for @YipesisIFC on this one. Crushing the evil cheap stuff. With STYLE
Yipes literally used all the moves on the book for Vergil and Dante. I mean all the moves the characters have, he used, and used them well. Yipes is God like!
That was godlike when yipes sniped the assist.
It's only because Yipes was a legend in MvC2. And hasn't really reached the tip top of the Marvel 3 scene until now.
What's the difference between Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Marvel vs Capcom 3?
It's not easy to kill morrigan in one combo. I don't know how you're not seeing this. Morrigan can make everything safe with her fly cancels. The only unsafe move is her launch. Not only that, but she has a tiny hit box, moves with disjointed hurtboxes, a good runaway game, a meter building special, a power up super that ensures lockdown, and massive chip damage. Also paired with Doom missiles, combos to kill are interrupted all the time and shuts down your air options.
My two favorite players in GFs. Yipes v Chris G. Hell yeah.
That 65 hit Vergil combo from Yipes on the second to last match was TOO much
While I agree that watching Chris G's MorriDoom can get a little boring, I REALLY like watching it. It's so cool to see his setups for certain situations. AND SOME OF THE COMBOS HE'S DOING THESE DAYS ARE FUCKING AMAZING. MY GAWD.
Never underestimate the power of the song change
*sighs* I miss this game. ...
He's not suggesting that chrisg should make it harder on himself. He's suggesting that he find something equally fun for himself that isn't boring for viewers to watch. Really, is this hard to comprehend?
I wish Yipes would play again/more, but he is an awesome commentator.
bro yipes hands down is determined
4:40 you're right but wrong at the same time. Yipes could not link the cr.H into Lunar phase so he went for j.d.H but he could have just done lunar phase without adding the additional cr.H into it and it would have linked.
This video warms my heart :)
same
I only stayed cause I saw Yipes's name........ The face Chris made at 20:42 when he loses a match to Marlin Pie and Justin Wong, PRICELESS
Yipes is so good, can't imagine how much better he would be if you would just look straight at the screen rather than strain his eyes to look up from and head down position.
When ChrisG gets his haircut he tells the barber, "make me look like a bitch"
Yipes is the son of Sparda reincarnated in our realm.
i don't get the fun fact at 0:57 about "forcing vergil into blockstun and his swords will not hit you"?? Can anyone explain?
Vergil is top tier thanks to the many cross ups and his speed, also has an excellent guard with the swords as well as stacking hits with the combos. He pretty much is a game changer when in the hands of someone who can time a single hit right, cause his combos kill. He's an Ace
I love Yipes. IMO best Dante in the game around this time.
Kavortino he said at this time when marvel was at the top of its game not at the current state that we are now
Kavortino this event was in 2012 what 2 moths bs u talking about
the original comment said "around this time" meaning 2012
OK folks I wasn't clear in my original comment. I meant around 2012.
You know TH-cam I send texts between watching videos, so I don't think it's fair that I have to watch a twilight add every time I switch screens.
I always have the highest of respect for dante players. Imo dante is the highest Skill Cap charc. on the whole UMVC3 roster. He has so many combos, and abilities, but such little damage on them. So actually doing a 1 touch kill like yipes did on that morigana requires the craziest combos ever seen to mankind. And yipes does them... in a tourn.
the movement in this set is great. excellent set
