Possible Answers: Anakaris!!! : Why? Cable!!! : Why? Posted by Jaze on 06:18:2001 04:34 PM: Cable would definately win. Anakaris is too slow to be a threat to Cable. Plus, theres always the AHVB. Posted by Assist Type on 06:18:2001 04:48 PM: Complete mismatch Posted by BRENT on 06:18:2001 05:10 PM: It would depend on who was playing whom. If a great Anakaris player was up against a poor Cable player, well you can probably guess the result. I don't like the idea of top-tier characters owning all others. If you know the character and are good with him or her, then that character is top-tier for you. Posted by Mr. SmArTy on 06:18:2001 05:29 PM: The anakaris player has to be damn good even just playing an average cable player who knows the basics of AHVB and when to do it. Posted by BRENT on 06:18:2001 05:40 PM: True, but I've seen Anakaris players that damn good. Anyone who knows the basics of a good rush-down game can own Cable. Posted by StriderDude on 06:18:2001 06:07 PM: Couldn't anarkis just sj and throw coffins all day? Posted by OriJINal on 06:18:2001 06:10 PM: Id say Anakaris. If he can get above Cable and pin him down with coffins then cable has nothing. Psmitar has a tight angle so it wou;ld be hard to bring down mummy man. and lets not for get idle hands. Posted by waldo98 on 06:18:2001 08:35 PM: If someone is really using Anakaris, he really gotz to know his shit with him. Anakaris' normal and super moves are not exactly easy to pull off. Even his super moves are not normal motions. It all depends on the skill level of both players. It is very rare to see a very good Anakaris player, yet its pretty normal to see a Cable player. The element of surprise goes to Anakaris because not many people have seen Anakaris, or even seen is moves. If you can take out a decent Cable with Anakaris, then you've earned and deserve some respect.

Posted by Sentinel_Nuts on 06:18:2001 10:47 PM: Cable...cuz Anakaris is a guard break picnic. Posted by DeathFromAbove on 06:18:2001 11:06 PM: Cable. I've played this match many times (as Anakaris). Too much lag on Anakaris' attacks. He kicks Cable's butt for about 10 seconds, then the Cable player figures out that he can just crouch and call assists, and wait for any attack to AHVB Anak.

Posted by dusk on 06:19:2001 12:07 AM: the key word was one on one =p as in no assists hehe =p. NEwayz if someone is crazee nuff to use anak damn he must be good...or its sum scrub who thinks he looks kewl =p. cable wins =p anak kinda too slow and laggy on moves. that and cable can throw him all day long hehe =p. that and his grab and coffin drops arent that hard to get around =p. Posted by rusbar on 06:19:2001 12:20 AM: if one on one, then anakaris does stand a chance. also, if you anakaris is hit with cable's scimitar, it'll knock him out of the screen, and once that happens, you can just start droppin those coffins. and if you're off screen, nothing can hit you. not even capcom n bh aaa, or even storms hail storm, ah the wonders of mvc2 bugs does work for the "lower tier" characters. but yeah, if there are assists involved, then it's a whole different story. even w/ other top tier characters to assist the mummy, it's a tough battle. Posted by Mikato_Kenji on 06:19:2001 12:37 AM: I'd consider myself an expert Anikaris player. It's really all about preise timing and using his strange moves and teqnique, but against cable! Any expert or above average character that knows Anakaris's moves can beat him. All cable has to do is wait for Anakaris to make one slip and Anakaris is gonna be eating some AHVB. Plus, Cable can just throw FP, AVB, and Grenades all day and kill him off chip damage. Mikato Kenji ^_^ Posted by TheMummy on 06:19:2001 04:32 AM: Thanks for all the comments/opinions regarding on this thread. But if you will ask me, Anakaris would definitely win. I met so many expert Cable users in MVC2. On 1 on 1 battle, When the first two characters were defeated: Cable knew my moves but still, they keep on guessing on what will be my next move. I am not the type of Anakaris that uses Sarcophagus Drops all the time. I'm always close to him so that he will be confused when I started quick/rush attacks then do a Super.

Posted by Iceman on 06:19:2001 10:12 PM: You sure you've been playing expert Cables? Someone tell me what's going to stop Cable from rush Anakaris if he wants? Posted by data88 on 06:20:2001 01:59 AM: I've had this match up several times (cause experts around the place only know how to fight with cheap cable). Anakaris must be very good to beat cable who must be average (including knowing tiger knee) and I've won usually by coffins, cause cable plays difficult keepaway with assists like doom and capcom assist. No matter how well you can time your coffin dropping, expert will block almost all and eventually wait for opening AHVB. However, if you get hit by scimitar, consider yourself lucky because if the game is already in your favour, you can just drop coffins on the top of screen where cable can't AHVB you :/ That is if they don't have BH or capcom assist (very rare against cheap expert players) Posted by Sepehr on 06:20:2001 01:59 AM: anakaris The whole thing depends on who the players are. If you are playing against ChiQ's Anakaris and you have cable in your team. I am positive that your Cable will loose. I have not seen that many of you guys play with Cable but i have seen ChiQ play with Anakaris. His team is BlackHeart, Anakaris, Doom, Son Son. Quite amazing. He also is the number one Blackheart player in Japan. Posted by ShoFunaki on 06:20:2001 03:10 AM: Anakaris IMO. HE can just sj and throw coffins all day. OR he can try rushing Cable down, more risky but more effective and confusing. Posted by TheMummy on 06:20:2001 11:15 AM: quote: Originally posted by ShoFunaki Anakaris IMO.

It's so easy, just fly in mid-range surprisingly, using high-jumps then fly up to the top of cable, even there's an anti-air. Anakaris could land as easy a that, I've met so many cable user's avoiding it but I still win hehe Posted by FecalPenance on 07:09:2001 04:22 PM: A master anakaris should have a very close match but still lose.. here are some tips: only use idle hands when in the air unless you're countering a move, NEVER regular jump, use his crouching roundhouse to stuff vulnerable assists, if you ever manage to land idle hands on the ground dash in for a C.Hk or if you're in the corner C.Lk C.Hp aircombo, don't abuse the coffin drop since a decent cable player knows how to find a gap and ahvb, use your airdash to stay on top of him, let cable make the first move then counter accordingly ie: if he calls blackheart and super jumps, dash on the ground and stuff bh with a C.Hk then cancel that into pharaoh illusion(lp,lp,->,lk,hp) so that you'll knock him out of his grenade throwing animation and get style points for batting him around.... let cable start a pattern then break him down Posted by Monkey on 07:09:2001 04:30 PM: Cable. Thats all I'm saying. Posted by Servebot on 07:09:2001 04:32 PM: Anakaris' slow moves and floaty jumps easily make him AHVBx3 bait Posted by StiltMan on 07:09:2001 04:54 PM: Anakaris has only one real hope against Cable: going to the stratosphere and dropping the coffins and praying Cable can't get him down. If Cable brings Commando, BH, or both, Anakaris... er... unravels in a hurry.

Posted by Dasrik on 07:10:2001 09:39 PM: Okay, it's clear to me that all you rookies are just working on hope here. One-on-one, Anakaris wins. Of course, Karis can rush that shit down, his c.short is madly good. But PLEASE, he does NOT win by sj.coffin drops all day! The coffins only go to one place, they don't track Cable, so if you miss, you get AHVBed, and besides, Anakaris can't drop coffins directly beneath him. So Cable basically just has to get beneath Karis and wait for the opportunity to strike. This is not how Karis wins. And someone said "If you get hit by Psimitar, you go off-screen and you can drop coffins all day from there." Great, doofus, then Storm wins for free by airdashing up and throwing vertical typhoons all day. Or didn't anyone tell you that you can't do ANY specials or supers when you're off-screen? Christ! Try your theoretical shit before you go around telling people "That's how Anakaris wins!" Posted by aquarake on 07:10:2001 10:17 PM: so mad, so angry, DARN THAT RAP MUSIC Posted by TheMummy on 07:12:2001 04:24 AM: I sometimes end the match with Pharaoh's Illusion and Idle Hands with c. RH Kick. Posted by TheMummy on 09:17:2001 02:08 PM: Just reviving this thread about ANAKARIS & CABLE Posted by Crayfish on 09:17:2001 04:30 PM: Mummy, please can you give me some advice on the execution of Anakaris's Supers. I used to be able to do them fine in the DS series but in Marvel I can't seem to get them out. Is it a timing thing or what? Anakaris is my favourite character along with Shuma. Who should I make the third member of my team and why? How would the team work? Where is there a really good Anakaris guide here or anywhere on the net? Featuring basic to adv strats. Oh yeah, I started a thread about low teir characters who are potentialy top teir killers. Lordelocke was talking about Anakaris being the strongest character in the game if you could play him with enough anticipation. Very interesting, I would like to hear your contributions on the subject. Here is the thread: http://www.shoryuken.com/forums/sho...?threadid=39266 *Lordelocke's initial comments are about half way down the first page onwards. Thanks, Crayfish. Posted by EJBallaBoy on 09:17:2001 09:48 PM: Anarkaris would get beat so bad it's not even funny nuff said.

All you need is practice in executing all Anakaris' Supers. I've been playing Anakaris for 8 months!!! Trying to prove that Anakaris can do more than just pour some Sarchopagus Drops to the opponent. When executing combos with supers, don't look on the buttons, instead look at the screen and imagine that you will be able to do the combo & supers. That's my technique!! You should too try it! I don't know much about Shuma but I think you should include Dr. Doom for the benefit of Anakaris' Rushdown Tactic. When they are blocking Dr. Dooms assist, play with Anak's Rushdown. They will be kept guessing on Anak's moves. Pretty Effective!!! After they blocked Dr. Doom's AAA, try to capture them with Anak's Idle hands. When doing chipping damage, call Doom assist then s. jump and pour some Coffin Drops. Speaking of Anakaris' Idle hands, when the opponent is in the air. FEEL FREE in keeping a distance by doing a super jump and surprise him with Anak's Idle hands!!! Timing is essential to this part. When Cable(Example) tries to jump above Anakaris, quickly do the c. HP and do the Most Damaging Level 1 Super in MVC2. c. HP s.jump lp,lk, Pharaoh Cobra Blow Pharaoh Cobra Blow start with lp,hp,lk (same time) then when the three snakes reached the edge screen, start to push the hk. Then repeat until the super is over. (almost 80+ hits, 3/4 damage). Well, that would be all, that's how I execute my Most Powerful Team of all, ANAKARIS, DR. DOOM, STORM. All times are GMT. The time now is 11:34 PM.
