Seriously. Always liked players that used unique teams/low tier characters. They’re always these underdogs that do really well. Look at Sacktap. He made it to grand finals with Ghost Rider! Much respect
I've been saying this for years. Sacktap is a god and one of the sharpest players in the world. Nasty mixups, insane character knowledge, dirty tech and incredible reads. Always a pleasure to witness him in the zone. At his best, he can beat anyone in the world with low tiers. Also, scariest Haggar on the planet, hands down
Very entertaining to watch him play, especially kicking ass with Nemesis, who is considered a “Trash Tier” character according to both the EventHubs poll and Justin Wong himself.
@@Lepidopterous. event hubs is a not a good source in general and while Justin is great his umvc3 tierlist isn’t considered good by the rest of the umvc3 community ( sentinel in C tier) .
Well said, especially about his character knowledge. Dude makes us go "Oh yeah that does work..." I don't know why he chooses the more difficult ways to win in this game but I'm grateful 😆 lol! And yes he's the best Haggar player. Those footsies he did in the top 12 matches were so deft! Aspiring Haggar players will be studying that film.
@@paulakroy2635 lol I’d love to know how you concluded that the “umvc3 community” thinks Justin’s tier list is bad. Oh and sentinel in C tier seems like a fair rating. Trash character with a god tier assist.
@@ellis7622 Sentinel in C is a meme. Harddrive is one power supers in the game ( he can get out of unblockables) + he can kill pretty fast in x-factor and has a Tac infinite. Also he put jill in B tier despite her being one of the worst characters in the game
I'm a 100% positive that if this was on main stage place would have gone wild! Best top 4 and Grand Finals easy! So many hype and clutch plays from Sacktap!!!
Always wanted to play on the EVO stage. GGs to all, sorry zero had to triumph once again but GGs to MOTHMAN and Sacktap, we play every week in a tournament online or offline at this point so it feels good to see all our grinding pay off :) #11MoreYears
First Evo gameplay Ive seen in about 5 years or so. I was such a diehard following all the SRK forums & putting endless hours in the lab! Good to see new faces in the community, didnt recognize anyone in this top 8. For better or worse :) Whens Marvel!!!
iinside is unknown, magic pixel mexican is sacktap, and noel bhungry is noel brown. No way you had no idea of those players since they all made top 8 and have been in competitive marvel 3 since release or near release and have been extremely well known in the scene since way before mvci came out.
@@Romora Congratulations Romora, I hate Zero & Vergil. But your effort, dedication to the game is real. Respect✊🏼and to more years of MAHVEL 3! Just wish Capcom and Marvel would release another Marvel 3 but with every character that's ever been in a MvC game... And with some character rebalancing heh.
Noel couldnt even be mad about it, thats how you know you saw some wild shit. When the opponent doesnt even look salty just nods his head and looks over to the dude and basically goes "man that was crazy".
@@paulakroy2635 yeah but look at Romora's team lol. If he had won with maybe a Hsien -Ko, Phoenix Wright and another low tier character he would definitely have been more fun to watch like Sacktap. I used to play Zero and Vergil and it's no fun at all when you can easily win.
27:25 I had never seen this stage up that high and 27:29 not sure if I had never paid attention to it but never seen that crater appear on the floor and it stays for a long time
I have this game but never tried it. I wonder if there is an oce discord I can go to so I can try it out. I do suck at execution so it will be tricky to learn these combos. I might make a team around Aurthur as well I am a masochist that likes to play the original ghost and goblins against my friends to see how long we can last and who can make it the furthest.
Sacktap and Romora are both so fun to watch. Also, I’m sure it’s an established and legitimate strategy for the character, but does anyone else find Mothman’s fighting style/strategy with Phoenix kind of annoying to watch? How he just spends the whole game just trying to build up meter for Phoenix.
I find Zero and Vergil to be 1000000 times more boring to watch. The morrigan/phoenix team puts the opponent into a race to be proactive before phoenix comes online, which tests the opponent and forces them to spend resources early on to get rid of phoenix. To me much more interesting to watch than zero doing a lightning loop into incoming mixup..
I mean technically nobody has won a main stage evo with zero doom Vergil. Also you couldn’t beat romora playing a team hsien-ko Phoniex wright she-hulk
@DARKISANDY. Yeah I understand how you feel but that's a no restriction format for ya. And yeah it's nothing impressive really cause anyone can just main Zero/Doom/Vergil and win the Finals easily. Don't worry though this can be fixed if it's a point system format assign to each character like how Justin Wong does it for MVC2, OR they can just straight up banned broken characters and then play as is.
@@ralki15 If we just had one more balance update. Even just ever so slightly buffing low tier characters, and making minor nerf adjustments for high tier it would change the entire landscape. Man I wish they never made MVCI.
@@paulakroy2635 Romora never gets his respect. I swear, I don't know why people pretend picking high tiers automatically guarantees you a win. He's been grinding at this for a long time, and he knows every single nuance of that team. He's beaten a lot of high tier players/characters, yet whenever he wins, people act like he played a C tier player with a D tier team smh. I'd love to see them take their mains (or S-tiers since that's apparently all you need) and face him. I got money on Romora 3-0.
this is wat tournaments wouldve looked like if chris G never discovered morrigan/doom missiles. Thats also how flocker won EVO 2013, becuz justin wong eliminated chris G from the tournament so Flocker's Zero didnt have to deal with keep away defensive stall tactics
Magic pixel Mexican beat 2 birds to get to the final definitely deserved to win this one. Ramora you just crushed the hopes of everyone at home watching. We needed ghost rider to have an Evo title.
@@paulakroy2635 If you're a really good player like Sacktap or KBR then yeah Haggar looks strong. Not saying that he is bad but not really high tier compared to Zero, Doom and Vergil.
@@paulakroy2635 yes and Jkiddo's older bro Ramasama yeah. I get that. I'm saying not a lot of players overall use haggar. Or use haggar effectively. Look at the ratio of Doom and vergil users to haggar.
@@ellis7622 put him in a major back when the game was alive with players like fchamp or pr.rog playing the game. I like watching saktap but no question the competition isn’t as stiff
@@Larez121 yes, they did iirc. However, I believe that this past CEO had barely more than Evo, but likely because it was about a month after CB-- so many could not attend :(
No wonder Angelic plays Dota 2, or PR Balrog strategy games like Starcraft among others .... because in a lot of regards uMvC3 is closer to a strategy game than to a fighting game.

I never thought in 2022 I would see MODOK, Ghost Rider and Arthur in a EVO Top 4.
Appreciate Mothman and Sacktap for staying with the mains
Sacktap is such a unique fighter. We’re lucky to have someone like him in the scene.
Seriously. Always liked players that used unique teams/low tier characters. They’re always these underdogs that do really well. Look at Sacktap. He made it to grand finals with Ghost Rider! Much respect
Word.
@@RobbyRayJr And ARTHUR! He's basically at the bottom tier, probably only ahead of Hsien-Ko.
