Hitboxes

the red one is the part that hurts

>>386401927
hitbox/hurtbox

>>386401927
Red: Hurt box, where the attack hits
Blue: Hurt box, where you get get hit
Green: Collision box, space your character takes up.

>>386401998
Red is generally the box that hurts others
Blue is generally the box that can get hurt by another character's red box
Green boxes are sometimes where the character's physical body is. Other character's green boxes can't go through it.

>>386401927
The joke, if you can call it that, is some characters have a hitbox (in red), which is where the damage of an attack comes from, that is so near to their hurtbox (in lavender?), which is what registers an attack connecting and therefore the character taking damage, that you're likely to hit them out of their attack with an attack of your own. They might trade, but shit if they're in the air that's still their ass.
Basically it's a high risk low reward move, which begs to question why use it, which begs to question why it's even there. Which begs to question why even pick the character. Which, well you know where this is going.

As for Victor >>386401383 well he's supposed to be a grappler and his command grab range (yellow box) is just shit unless you're humping his leg. There's nothing more to explain.

>>386400928
Nobody's posted Wolverine's Divekick or some of the more ridiculous hit/hurt boxes. I'm surprised

and he's got armor too. Fuck this game.

>>386402081
ok will do

>>386401383
Are grabs just shit in this game, or is this specific to Mr.Frankenstein here?

>>386403791
So how are you supposed to hit him?

>>386404665
With projectiles probably. UMvC3 was such a shit game balance-wise.

Throws in Vampire Savior have incredibly short range across the board. Victor is shit for other reasons and his throws are especially bad on account of his having a whiff animation unlike most others. Demitri is the best grappler in the game.

The greatest mystery of the decade is how such a monumentally shitty series became so beloved.

>>386408357
It's a joke about jank hitboxes not just fighting games, so it's actually apt.

>>386408410
Because the actual game is fun and the PvP is the shitty part? It couldn't be that, right?

>>386408461
>Move is animated like it's an anti-air
>It actually isn't
>There's at least one of these in every fighting game

The game balancing people need a stronger communication link with the art people.

>>386408578
No obviously it couldn't.

Plesioth's hurtboxes are inaccurate though. Damaging anywhere on the body works, the belly is only a major hitzone.

>>386410124
It's like an animation smear, the red represents the vacuum cutting area left by the knife's trajectory.

>>386405539
Bee, Canadian Hobo and Zombie can all grab you from mid-screen. That's why they're #1-3

>>386408006
fuck you plesioth

The animation shows the shockwave for the air attack.

Somehow, this sprite doesn't show the shockwave

>Bee
C>R is blockable is also not why Bee is strong.
>Sasquatch
Big Brunch has short as shit range like all of the other command grabs and he is strong because he has stupid normals, is fast as fuck, has strong mixup, and shits damage.
>Zabel
Evil Scream is blockable and Hell Dunk sucks dick. Zabel is strong for the same reasons as Sasquatch, except Zabel has unblockables and is more versatile than Sasquatch is.

Eat shit

>>386410493
The reason the sprite doesn't show it is because the slash effect is in a separate folder or part of her spritesheet but a separate entity. The reasons is like that is so they can reuse the same slash effect for multiple moves but only need 1 sprite that they can reuse for all of them, saves a bit of space and possibly easier to do.

>>386401383
Is Victor that bad, wanted to get into Darkstalkers and play some Victor, is he better in any entry at least?

>>386411015
He's definitely better in Savior than he is in Hunter, and Savior's the one that gets the most play anyway.
