At this point, I think it’s safer than safe to say that Justin Wong is a true master of Marvel vs. Capcom 2.
The absolute fighting game legend continues to share clips of mind bending plays he pulls off in actual matches against unsuspecting online opponents that probably need to be studied. In his latest clip, JWong scores a happy birthday (KO-ing two characters at the same time), a crazy Hulk infinite, and a perfect, and it’s all while using a very unorthodox team.
When you’re at the level of Justin Wong in Marvel vs. Capcom 2, there comes a time where you’ve played and locked down the top tier and most competitive characters so well that you eventually move on to exploring the lesser used and weaker fighters in the game.
Justin is no stranger to putting together odd teams and finding potential with them, and this clip features exactly one of those teams. Using a squad of Jill, Hulk, and Juggernaut, Wong lands a devastating series of sequences that you have to see.
The footage begins at the “FIGHT” message and sees Justin immediately begin pressuring the opponent with Jill on point. He creates a quick opening by delaying the Juggernaut assist, which leads to a swift meterless combo that deals about 35-ish percent of the opponent’s Sakura’s health.
By this point in the clip, the match is already essentially over, which is… wild. After knocking the opponent down from that first combo, Justin goes for a crouching light on their wake up and connects, which leads into Juggernaut assist again.
With Juggernaut taking a moment before actually pounding the ground and hitting the opponent, we see that they actually called their Morrigan assist at the same time, which also gets snatched up in the onslaught. And with that, both Morrigan and Sakura get taken for a ride into an air combo that ends with a Jill super into DHC into Hulk super into happy birthday they’re both dead.
The madness doesn’t end there, though, as with Hulk now on point Justin lands the incoming mix up and secures the towering fighter’s upward tackle special move on the opponent’s final character. Because of how this tackle hit and the height of the follow up second attack, Justin is able to just keep doing this same move and the follow up over and over again locking the opponent into an infinite.
This seldom seen Hulk infinite lasts 34 hits and 18 in-game seconds before Justin intentionally drops it right before the KO. He calls Juggernaut assist again and neutral jumps before countering M. Bison’s poke attempt with a jumping attack and closing things out.
