I like the wife's hug at the end. It was the, "your next hug will be a command grab if you don't play with Harper" kind of hug. 🤣
that's the true raging demon right there. no escape.
A zangief 720 command grab
ROFLMAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Justin: "Sakura is top tier in Japan... you know why?"
Everyone: Umm... the uniform?
pretty much
she is the most popular SF character, whether some people like/accept it or not
@@michellelincoln9987 more than chun?
@@AirKangLocker More than Chun.
@@michellelincoln9987 i dont know why, but i think u might be lil bit biased
@@doodoo2065Nope, he’s not. Look at the Capcom Popularity Poll for Street Fighter.
justin’s mastery of mvc2 really is crazy to think about. the amount of characters/teams/assists in this game is unreal and justin can competently play just about all of them. the michael jordan of marvel.
*LeBron of Marvel
@@DokuTenbun No
@@xOmniCloudx you have your opinion, I have mine.
@@DokuTenbun You tried to correct someone and weren't acting like it was an opinion so, the no still factually stands due to how you shared it.
@@xOmniCloudx don't bring political bs. Fuck that shyt
Dark Sakura is my favorite character in MVC2.
MVC2 also has my favorite iteration of Sakura.
Crazy strong, crazy good, crazy fun
I guess I never really seen people play with Dark Sakura before, but her chip dmg looks nuts. Can we see how she works in a chip-heavy team? Maybe something like Sakura, Silver Sam, and Doom?
That's my go-to team 🔥
what about with blackheart or spiral in place of sam?
@@matthewzakrzewski1797 I could see BH working, doing his FP/RK demon zoning with Doom rocks to build meter for Inferno>HOD>DHC into dark Sak. I wouldn't trust either Sakura or Doom assists to work well enough as a DP for Spiral sword zoning, but my Spiral was pretty garbage, so maybe I'm just blind 🤷♂️
@@Ash__Adler tbf, spiral usually doesnt care for AA assist since she just wants constant pressure for the gameplan. Only dp assists that help with pressure (ie cable or psylocke) are desired, so idk if sak fits the bill there
@@matthewzakrzewski1797 I mean, since Sakura and Blackheart ARE SOMEHOW FRIENDS IN OFFICIAL (not mainline, OFFICIAL) STREET FIGHTER CANON, yeah. I can see it happening.
0:03 - That's a Sound Effect I haven't heard in ages. Good Choice on the editor.
When you realize that Justin is out here flexing on everyone and not using his best teams. I do like the fact that he does post some of Ls.
Except the L he got against me. ;)
@@thefrankiepalmeri what team you used
@@lilSenDog Black Heart/Sentinel/Jin VS Iron Man/Strider/Ken ( Justin )
@@thefrankiepalmeri that's a pretty evenly matched team, I'd say
Everybody commenting on ur gaming, I'll comment on ur parenting. Respect Justin for dropping the headphones asap for the lil one. I respect u more now than just a gamer 💪
I'm glad you made a video about this because I used to pick Dark Sakura back in the day all of the time and she never ceases to amaze me! The dev team knew what they were doing! 💯
I was there when this game debuted I'm arcades. With the tier point system and some curating, this game can be revived as one of the greatest fighting games for FGC. I think with a studio that cares and gets rollback net code, they could have a serious online ranked experience on PC or console. I can believe how good and fresh this game feels so many years after it's release. I love it.
Everybody will play the robot, storm, and magnito. and some cable mixed in between. Is that what would sell!
@@ottertubetv9356 that's why you manage a ranked mode with the tier 7 points system.
The guy editing these videos has the funniest sound effects and edits. It’s like a work of art.
thanks friend :)
I main sakura in literally every game she's in
fbi, thats the person 😆😆😆
As you should!
hell yeah man me too
@@user-fu4il4sj8g Well you tried. Failed, but at least you tried.
What about sfv that game and Sakura design are trash
Dark Sakura definitely feels like a top tier character but is so expensive to activate her...
I keep thinking of initiating with another character and changing during the fight to make the transition safer, but to let go of a top assist for it feels even more expensive than the 3 bars...
Aaawwwnnn, that hug in the end! 😊
I'm glad that Sakura is getting some love.. h-yea
it's about time this character got more recognition
and for anybody who doesn't know, the cost of making her playable was the 3 meter transportation
considering it's a pretty significant buff, it's worth it
initially, she was a hidden character in MSHvSF, but, much like MechaGief, her inclusion in this game was changed to a transformation super
much like how they compensated for not having Ken or Akuma in MvC with Ryu's Mode Change supers
Dark Sakura in mainline Street Fighter canon is pretty much Sakura's inner potential that has a mind of it's own. In Volume 1 of Sakura Ganbaru, Dark Sakura's pretty much what allowed her to unleash a full-power Hadoken with ease, and later on not only make absurd comebacks against Karin and Maki (hence the two's shock once they see Sakura act seemingly on instinct alone), but also foresee and make a counter to EVERY MOVE HER OPPONENT IS GOING TO MAKE BEFORE THEY EVEN MAKE IT. Not only that, remember the Midare Zakura? Sakura's version of Ken's Shoryureppa? Well, guess what?
In the manga, when Ken & Sakura confronted each other, it's possible that Sakura was in her Dark form the ENTIRE TIME (how else would she be able to keep up with Ryu's best friend, after all). Not only was she able to take being sent into a fence like it was NOTHING, but when their fight reached the tops of buildings, Sakura ripped out that Super Move to break FIVE OF KEN'S RIBS. Amazing how Ken was still able to eat dinner afterwards.
3:53 Glorious. Absolutely glorious!
Something I noticed was that Ruby assist work extremely well for Ryu because of his poor fireball durability. So glad to see Suntanned Sakura putting in work!
That teleport should be a buff for Akuma for the upcoming MVC2 Omega Mode
Giving regular characters dark powers is probably one of the most satisfying things in fighting games. They're usually insanely strong and have interesting stories. Devil Jin in Tekken 5 comes to mind.
Justin... why don't you try VDO's Rogue, Colossus, Ken team?
It'd be interesting seeing how your style mixes in with that team.
Does VDO still play? Does he stream or post youtube videos? Guy is a Marvel legend.
I love to watch your videos with different teams.
And dark Sakura can be a top tier in the right hands
Dark Sakura is my fave MvC2 character. Dark Sakura in UMvC3 is cool and all but the easy 50% combos, a broken teleport, and fun normals and personality make the MvC2 version so goated. I even got her stickered on my DJ set
Yooo love all the videos! We're having a ratio tournament at our local arcade coming up! Wanting to use Sakura, bison, and zangief!!
j wong you're a god man, love MvC2 content from you. keep going, posed for the +1 engagement
Sunkissed Sakura is amazing, but resource intensive because of her 3bar transformation, which was the main issue I had with her, so I always ran her with Storm, been thinking about trying her out with like Spiral or Commando.
I actually do Spiral/Sakura/Sentinel but tbh I’m not that good lol
*yawn* more god tier based teams...
@@DerrickWhitsyJr where
I love your MvC2 content, it's refreshing. Nice hug at the end too.
That last part was unexpectedly endearing.
9:54 The wife: "Actin' like you won't get command-hugged."
I think she's got a better success rate with the command-hug than you have with Sakura's raging demon!
A great Filipino MVC 2 player that id recommend playing against goes by the username Thunder Trunks. Would love to see you and him in a match
You can Alpha Counter into a super?! O_O I didn't know that.
8:54 awwwww so nice
Not trying to tell you what to do buddy but I would definitely edit out "go away Harper". Some people will get really rude about that stuff.
But sick video otherwise man! You never fail to impress
Sakura, don’t die, don’t diiiiie… She died! xD
08:55 now that is sweet
Oh man that counter on your projectile super into their own projectile super. That reversal was totally legit. I’ll have practice that one.
Yessss JWONGGG
You keep showing your brilliance bro 🔥🔥🔥
You are a BEAST!! LOL!! Makes me wanna lab more if I could GET MVC 2 on PS2 or PS3
Evil Sakura looks pretty great, but can we talk for a moment about how Justin makes Ryu look super legit?
Yes he isnt top tier in this game
I'm not a big fighting game player, but I've always loved Sakura. Even more so when I played as Dark Sakura in Marvel Heroes VS SF. It was a treat to get her in MVC2, even at her insane cost. Now I understand why I did decently with her without any real fighting game knowledge. I just love her. 😆🖤
Let's GO justin, you're the best
Any day where sentinel loses--to someone BESIDES another Sentinel--is a good day in my book.
I always called her “sun-tanned” Sakura. I never heard that character related to as Dark Sakura. Interesting.
Lol you've never played sf alpha? It has evil ryu
@@phil4863 I actually played a burnt CD copy of the playstation SFA3 port on Bleem, because I didn't have a playstation. So I mastered Sakura's movements on a keyboard. Actually, it made some super special combos easier, especially for characters with charge moves. I knew about Evil Ryu but I never was able to unlock him. I never made the connection between sun-tanned Sakura and Evil Ryu, even though I know that Evil Ryu also has darker skin. Btw, I played MvC2 on the Dreamcast, but the Dreamcast controller was awful on my index fingers, due to the trigger-like L and R buttons on the back of the controller. Sorry for the long reply, but it's fun to talk about.
I love to see you play MVC2.
And the wifey comes in at the end. What a great way of ending the video. Nice Justin.
I love this! Justin - question for you: if Rogue steals from Dark Sakura, does she then get "power up" instead of speed or defense or whatever? As far as I know, Rogue doesn't get power up from a single female character in the game, but I don't know about Dark Sakura. Oh, and maybe if a female character first gets boosted from Ruby Heart's power up assist, Rogue might then get power up from them. Not sure about either.
as somebody who plays Sunkissed Sakura a lot, I can vouch that yes she does
so now you know
6:55: Such a gentleman!
Damn, my man is drowning in women. Anyone else saw the end of the video?
Wifey come in the room like "Time to play versus....😏"
I have played this game casual for 20 something years..never knew this...
I spent hours upon hours fighting Dark Sakura. And also "Asura Senkuu" doesn't have a weak point like Akuma does. What has caused more than one controversy.
Awesome content bro !
"My [insert character] kinda OD"
Put that on a Jwong shirt 👕 👌 😎
I gotta two year old. "Dada playing" hit deep
The way I’d have raging demon hit every time I’d have max level get guile to do his giant blade special with opponent having his feet on the ground and not bouncing on the blade the have Akuma up next on tag and as guile is slicing and dicing do the button combos to Akumas raging demon and it hits every single time I’d main (guile/akuma/Jin)
Interesting how she's top tier. Never knew that. Learned something new today.
It take me so many tries to get her to change into that form but once I get her I’m happy lol
6:17 was so sick...wow!! this was incredible to see
shes fun to play justin it would have been cool if Ryu can turn into evil ryu in marvel vs capcom 2
The Dark sakura is totaly awesome!!!!
3:55
Metsuuuu hadouuuuu-KEN
Dark Sakura = Sakura after a 2-week vacation in the Caribbean haha
I too am a Dark Sakura believer!
Sakura has always been one of my favorite characters right next to akuma and ken but when I learned that she ken and ryu had a dark hadou version I was like yooooooooo
spray tan Sakura out here putting in work
Sakura getting a tan has made her OP.
Sakura is my homegirl, glad to see her getting some shine.
That Ryu tho?!!!
They need to release this on Xbox I feel like I’m missing out on so much
they need to release it on every console #freemvc2
Damn, you just got bodied by that AHVB @ 8:55 ...AHVB as in...Amazing Hugs Via Babe.
Damn his wife was even impressed
She’s the best!! Gambit + Mega man to complete my team
Where does one find the Ratio ratings for the characters? I’m curious if my current team is Ratio legal, you know?
Justin question what if Thanos wasnt nerfed in this game and his boss form from MSH along side with his Rocks and Ground projectiles . Will he become much better than his current form and can he become a god tier.
Even Sakura cannot escape the dark hado.
this the mvc i didnt learn to play hehe. ps2 was expensive that time and the play mechanics compared to 1 is very different to me. but with the roster we have for mvc2 wow
CVS2 PLEASE!
So Justin, if you had to compete in a tournament completely seriously which would be your team? Something out of the top tier bunch like Storm, Magneto, Sentinel?
Storm Sentinel Cyclops seems his most played top tier trio
jaja finish video hugs you
EPIC WIN XD
Yo J money you said tell you what would like to seee you give it the old j wong try ; to pull of Ken smash bros brawl combos it’s kinda based on sf4. Would love to see your mind attempt to smack them foolios are umm maybe perhaps pocket fighter tournament lol
Whatever the last smash is called my bad ultimate lmfao
Want to know what's even MORE shocking about Dark Sakura? She has been foreshadowed SINCE THE ALPHA 2 PRELUDE MANGA.
Therz no time limits on dark Sakura?
Justin getting dash grabbed by wife, let's go Justin!
Is the best fighting game in the all f*cking world! We are a brazilian guys and we love this game! We producting content about this in my country! #freemvc2
In Philippines we would actually be friends the owner and asking them to adjust to damage one so a lot of my friends would hang out to their arcade after school. Some who are more greedy will make the game damage higher thus a couple of air combo makes you loose 3/4 of your HP and that cabinet would eat dust all day long. Same to those who would set extreme difficult to games like gigawing ( damn those owners, that's where the tingting & piso hack was invented only OG filipino knows what this hack on arcade is 😂🤣😂🤣)
I knew the video was going to end when I saw Justin land the Raging demon xD
Win a Mark of the Wolves tournament.
Dagger_G plays D.Sakura. I'm guessing its for the teleport ability.
I enjoy playing sakura
Is there any reason to use Ryu's shoryuken assist over Ken's?
You play like a PRO version of me at times! You're the TRUE Pro though. You like the stylish finishes!
Watching Sakura try to choke out/break Sentinels neck is hilarious
5:47 daaaamn so much chip damage on fucking Sentinel
Bionic man sound..... God tier
What’s the input for the transformation? Lv 3 and what’s the direction and button input? Thanks
DP Backwards LK
i love dark sakura so sick i can see why japan put her in top tier or least feels like it because of the teleport good super of that damage and on chip too or to the assist but of course you have to get meters to get that form if i would put her in b she not really s tier to me .
You're a beast bruv
Why did her friend just die like that (•‿•)
You didn't do her air combe lk tatsu x jab x lp shoyuken
Damn man.. watching these great ass precise moments and actions... flash backs from how i good i used to be
#FREEMVC2 Justin you're the 🐐 bro!!
