CV Spotlight: joo’s MvC2 DVD Preview

Since there wasn’t anything major released this week, now seems like a good time to talk about … well, insanity.

For the past five years, joo has been creating absurdly nuanced Marvel vs Capcom 2 combo videos, on his own as well as in collaboration with the group Meikyoushisui. If you care about Marvel at all then you’ve seen his videos, and if you’ve seen one of his videos then i don’t need to tell you how big a deal this guy is.

Recently he announced his plans to release a (free!) DVD compilation of MvC2 combos. The shocking part is, apparently he’s been saving all of his best material for this DVD. In other words, we’ve been watching b-sides and deleted scenes all this time. It’s hard to imagine what’s on the DVD itself when the preview trailer is quite possibly the craziest MvC2 combo video of the past two years.

After a year of remastering and additional production, the deadline has been finalized for January 31st, 2010; roughly a month away. Magnetro has been helping with explanation tutorials, and he’s got an SRK thread going which covers everything about the project as well as links to all previous volumes. I don’t know what else to say about this except that everyone i know is looking forward to it, so you should go check out the trailer and join us in the thread.

    I’m actually really curious about this, even though I don’t play Marvel and probably never will (at a high -or even mid- level, I own a PAL PS2 copy, lol).
    I like the setups using Zangief to keep the opponent close. Spiral teleporting off screen was pretty damn cool too.

    Do you think all the information on this dvd will in some way affect competitive Marvel play? Like maybe some new super team or strat will be born out of these new combo ideas?
    I ask because Marvel is quite famous for it’s character selection…
