That Zangief infinite was the first infinite I ever discovered. I learned it back in 1998, on the Saturn version. It’s one of the reasons why X-Men vs SF is my all time favourite Saturn game.
Man, Tips and Tricks was my first ever video game magazine. I loved the hell out of it every month. It was funny looking back and seeing Justin Wong name in the tournament results. I had no clue who he was at the time. XD
Having not watched this video yet, I opened it in a new tab, clicked over, and as it was starting said 'Folks...' in perfect time w/ the intro. I'm not saying this is a bad thing--it's sort of a signature by this point which is why I anticipated it. But it was hilarious to me that I timed it so well without having seen the video. Sorry if this comment is dumb.
Sabretooth also has an insane infinite. Just do jumping mp, hp, hk. The trick is to land the land the feet closest to the ground when pressing hk. I also think it works on the last version.
This has been my most played game on the collection by far, I love XMvSF, may be one of my favorite Capcom fighters ever. Surprisingly, MvC2 is the game I have played the least. I remember liking it a lot more than I do these days.
I was a Zangief main when this came out in the arcades back in the 90's, and yes he was a beast. It didn't even matter who I paired Zangief with, he alone can solo matches. 😂
Dhalsim has some serious throw game in XvsSF! He can mash noogies into both his supers depending on the angle & can air throw consistently with good timing.
amazing how years after years, Capcom games are full of fascinating glitches that make any low tier a menace to contend with and how the community keeps exploring on those supposedly buried games
Zangief is presumably the only SF character ever to have a 10:0 matchup in his favour Sf2: world warrior vs Honda Zangief can open the round with a first frame lp 360 and due to the way world warrior works and Honda’s fatness, it literally can’t be escaped. That sets up an inescapable tick 360 loop. Game over GGs and good night. A great show for his loyal fans
Zangief is fun in xmen vs st, mvc1, i think msh vs sf because his grab supers were unjumpable if he does it basically point blank, and you aren't jumping before the screen flashes/stops when super is done. So I'd do the infinite and them end it with either standing roundhouse canlled into 360, super, the enemy flips out afterngetting hit by roundhouse and lands perfectly into super😊. There's different ways to do similar set ups, i think in mvc1 since aircombo lariet sends them higher, u can notmal jump and time a doen mk as zangief is in his decend from the normal jump, mk hits before he lands, do super asap and they fall into super. If you are new to these games definitely play xmen vs sf to uave some broken fun. Nothing like the satifying feeling of being able to do an infinite and killing a character or two😂
Heh. Stories (at least on Wikipedia) say that they've been trying to balance/nerf Zangief since SF2. Allegedly someone in the test arcade picked him on an early build and crushed everyone like sparrow's egg between thighs. At least, according to th-cam.com/video/ClfvLyoucK0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=d0j-iNNDLz-h0q4w at 2:40 ...
SFV Zangief started life pretty well until Capcom did the unthinkable and decided to remove his Cr MP into EX SPD. Why they did that, when it was literally the only thing he had, I have no idea. Gief didn't even have Green Hand anymore, the least they could have done was leave that beautiful set up in there to give you a chance. That whole game for me was a mess anyway.
👎 Wolverines forward drill claw is super safe vs a char like Zangief. He needs to stop jumping and dash in mix up pressure but then, 360 grabs.at the end just jump the psycho crusher and special him in the back you goon lol
One must be crazy to consider the MarvelVS series a competitive fighting game. It's so broken! 😂 Amazing party game anyway, just hop online and have fun just trying to start an infinitely combo before your opponent! 😂
I think sf6 gief should be buffed, his kick counter is literally useless, and his stomp is more useless than his counter. The stomp has zero range and is a mid for some reason. How? He literally stomps on their toes.
If Zangief got just 10% damage reduction on command grabs, he wouldn't be such a menace for the SF6 community 😬 but right now... he does boss fight damage in the right hands 🫠
guy whose entire identity is "the throw in my strike/throw mixup is bonkers" now getting literally infinite reward from the strike is crazy
Magneto: "I have the power of electromagnetism!"
Gief: "and I have the power of MY LOYAL FANS! Witness my full might! no mercy! no remorse!"
EUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH YAHHHH
Came to comment the exact same thing! 😂
I never Understood his power until Capcom Versus SNK 2. I watched a Pro player play him at lvl 4 in a tournament with K Groove. He took everyone.
k groove gief is too fun, can't wait for the cvs collection
its crazy because gief in cvs2 is considered pretty bad, dude was just cracked at him.
CVS2 is a broken mess. Garbage game.
Gief with FULL RUN is nuts. I'm surprised he got full run here, and NOT in Marvel.
@@vonVileit is a beautiful broken mess tyvm
JM saying that Zangief isn't balanced when every video he hits us frame 1 with the zero-frame, unblockable, full-screen "Folks..."
You just have to be holding mute after the Ad Flash
gah this entire game needs an epilepsy warning that chun super almost killed me

JM Crofts knew he could not stop using the infinite. Instead of reflecting on himself, he blammed Capcom
I see what you did there, and that is bullshit...😏

JM looks like Zangief. Basically he's playing as himself lol
What if, instead, Zangief looks like JM?
That’s Wild claim , bro looks more like rufus than anybody
American raised Zangief 🦾
Just put the muscle mass slider on the other end of the spectrum
Just needs the mohawk and about a hundred pounds of muscle.
Though I have never seen JM without a shirt, so he could be hiding some massive gains.
“I love pain, but you love even more”
Is a GOAT win quote
I am a simple man. I see big body grappler, I hit like button.
3:30 minutes of the easy infinite being dropped 😅
Loving the content recently :) keep up the good work

Sabertooth is also the best character in the game isn't he. Probably not as interesting as Zangief 😅
That's pretty much the only infinite I can get out consistently. That alone should show how easy it is cause I'm a scrub lord.
you know JM, i love when you play online, if you put out more videos with online matches and commentary i would definitely click on them
Your guilt was unwarranted but awesome to watch. :D
This has been my most played game on the collection by far, I love XMvSF, may be one of my favorite Capcom fighters ever.

Gief is trhe original demon grappler. Put some respect on his name
ZANGEIF DESERVES THIS
4:46 also Zangief to Magneto:
“BET YOU DIDN’T see that one coming huh!? OH MY DUDE!!!! You just got pranked bro!!!”
*filthy frank accent .
never used the lariat to end an air combo. good find. i would've never figured you could keep zangiefing em after that. 7:25 this is a funny fight.
the Zangiefication
You’re the reason we’re going to start seeing a lot more Zangief online 😅
Gief is the greatest Street Fighter of all time. Everyone just needs to learn how to play him right to understand!
90s fighting game and broke characters go together like chocolate and peanut butter
I will never tire of seeing zangief trolling.

Zangief in X-Men vs Street Fighter is pretty trash. This is his day to shine.

"not exactly hard" into instant cut I like it 😂

Sf2: world warrior vs Honda
Zangief can open the round with a first frame lp 360 and due to the way world warrior works and Honda’s fatness, it literally can’t be escaped. That sets up an inescapable tick 360 loop. Game over GGs and good night.
A great show for his loyal fans
Have you been spending a lot of time with Dotodoya recently?
"WITH THE RECENT ANNOUNCEMENT OF ZANGIEF GETTING BUFFED-"
Wish I could like the video twice . Love the cheap
Three guys so far have been bullied by Zangief in X-Men vs. Street Fighter
in this video we see the face of a man who knows he is committing evil!
can’t believe i’m this early to one of your vids for once
More drops than a Tokyo rain storm
I would be hyped to hear a crowd chanting the infinite while it happens lol. It’s got a dope rhythm to it.
Tips and Tricks the magazine??...
I'm old as hell...
😂

Mech Zangief from MVC would’ve been a good mention
I dunno man, in the right hands, Zangief is a menage.
We protect Gief in this house! #360
Wazzler level of bullying.

And here I thought, no way that's actually him. Well, at least I'm on TH-cam lol. It was fun watching my health bar melt after 1 anti-air lmao
sorry i had to get toxic for a minute
JM Crofts joins the refund squad n I'm here for it : I live for this ignorant shit !!!
EX+@ and EX2 he was broken. He could SPD you on block.
Wazzler Jr.
Dotodoya would like to have this video’s title
You didn't mention his dash is also a throw and that you can do more damage if you wiggle the joystick
MR GIIIIIIEF
I swear alpha 3 Zangief was something else
I laughed so hard at this online
Zangief felt strong in Street Fighter EX plus alpha, but I have no idea what high level play is like
I buy this game to play mvsc but x men vs street fighter you can find a match so quickly
I'm interested to play Gief in MVC or CVS, but he just seems like a high risk and no reward character. Would this be the only 1 he's good in?
can you do some casual gameplay again, like just playing MVC Collection or other stuff. still great videos tho👍🏻
OOOOWWWW the grappler is finally good CRY SOME MORE BUFF HIM IT IS REDEMPTION
jmcrofts making people refund cause of x-men vs street fighter 🤣
The bullying is real lol
10 minutes of absolute bullyng, yup
3 Frames of 'Run ahead' ruined this collection 😭
are you playing on steam

Good im a big gief fan.
Amazing
Until Zangief better than Bison and Akuma I refuse to recognize him as worthy of nerfs.
Unsubscribed! You're such a bully! Hail Justin Wong! lmao. Just kidding bro, great content as usual.
He can lariat in the air? Wtf
Zangiefolks unite
👎 Wolverines forward drill claw is super safe vs a char like Zangief. He needs to stop jumping and dash in mix up pressure but then, 360 grabs.at the end just jump the psycho crusher and special him in the back you goon lol
he has a folksing infinite

Amazing party game anyway, just hop online and have fun just trying to start an infinitely combo before your opponent! 😂
I swear every time i see this game i just wonder like why play this instead of marvel 2
Bro that beard lookn sexy!
More like Zangrief, amirite?
Leaving a comment
Bring back green hand. 😤
Bring back Vanilla SFiV Zangief
Lmao Evil
No, damn near everyone has an infinite in XvSF. This is the game's balance.
I think sf6 gief should be buffed, his kick counter is literally useless, and his stomp is more useless than his counter. The stomp has zero range and is a mid for some reason. How? He literally stomps on their toes.
in SF6 how many times has a zangief player win a pro tournament ?
Hate that I thought this was a Doto video
Zangief is always broken and Capcom keeps giving him more tools every game.
Tell me your not very good at fighting games without telling me with this wack take 😂
😂
Jesus Christ i forget how much otiginal MvC arcade games want you to have a seizure
Bro you are playing complete scrubs😂. I feel like kens dp assist would keep gief at bay .
Lmao
marvel vs capcom series is over all broken . Mvc is HNK FATHER LOL
QUICK!! CHANGE THE CHANNEL!!!!
Zangief with an infinite?! Sign me up
I like Guief but I think this infinite must be remove. Maybe a couple of times but then the opponent drops or something.
They never should have let anyone have an infinite or 100%. It's the main reason I stopped playing all the Marvel and Capcom cross ups years ago.
first
If Zangief got just 10% damage reduction on command grabs, he wouldn't be such a menace for the SF6 community 😬 but right now... he does boss fight damage in the right hands 🫠
