Marvel vs Capcom 3/MODOK

MODOK

In a nutshell

MODOK is one of the most difficult characters in the game to control. He doesn't have a normal Jump, and his attacks are all very bizarre. That said, the reward for learning him is high, as he contains many unique abilities and is equally dangerous from every range. If you don't mind his odd shape, MODOK is worth the time invested.

Strategy

Tips and Tricks

• Because Analysis Cubes are special moves, they can be super canceled into a Hyper Battering Ram for solid damage. The best part is that Hyper Battering Ram doesn't use any of your Levels of Understanding, so it is a win/win.
• MODOK can store up to nine Levels of Understanding. It is up to the player to choose how to use it. You could spend individual levels on Hyper Barriers, Jamming Bombs, and High Blasts, or save up for a Hyper Psionic Blaster. A powered up HPB can really hurt a poorly placed assist.
• MODOK's only {{#motion: low }} is his crouching {{#motion: h }}. You need to use this slow attack occasionally to give your opponent a reason to block low.
• If you land a Killer Illumination, which is best used defensively, you can hit an {{#motion: otg }} crouching {{#motion: m }} and combo into another super.
• MODOK can combo off of his throws near the corner with crouching {{#motion: m }}.
• MODOK's Barrier, on point or as an assist, can absorb attacks... even physical ones! Instead of fighting from behind it, try fighting from on top of it in close to your opponents for some interesting results.
