Infinite sequences are all but a given in Versus series games like Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, but most of the time they’re accomplished through team aerial combos (TAC) as multiple characters utilize assists and swaps to keep up the permanent pressure.
Non-TAC infinites are more rare, but certain characters can pull them off by repeating certain moves in certain situations. Performing these means you can force your opponent to watch and listen to the same repetitive sequence ad nauseam, which is perfect for when you really want to add insult to injury. Hayd3nplz has compiled a handful of non-TAC infinites in one convenient video for us to both refer to and enjoy.
One of these infinites features Frank West of Dead Rising fame, and utilizes just two moves on repeat: Snapshot and Hammer Throw.
Hammer Throw sees Frank get suddenly attacked by a zombie, but he evades the bite and tosses the zombie in his opponent’s direction. Snapshot stuns the opposition for a moment, but also helps Frank level up his Prestige Points.
If Frank manages to land a Hammer Throw from full screen, he can proceed to Snapshot>Hammer Throw for an infinite loop that your opponent can do nothing about except listen to the rhythmic sounds of Frank yelling “GET OFF ME!” and “SMILE!” with constant guttural zombie moans all the while.
Thanks to scaling, sequences like this quickly reduce in damage until they’re lopping off only negligible amounts. Hayd3nplz does this for 500 repetitions to get the combo counter maxed out, but shows us some mercy with a time skip.
C. Viper, Dante, Dr. Doom, Doctor Strange, and plenty of other characters have similar combos in the full video below. Remember only to use these combos for good, lest you find yourself suddenly not getting invited to any of your friends’ birthday parties.
