no, just no

Yes .. just YES ... i've seen girls beat the snot out of decent players on there just because they are hitting as many buttons as they can .. every mugen type game has always been that way! Think of the arcades kids would hit random directions and all the buttons they could find and magically start doing ultimate moves.

Then you have all the ultimate moves that you do that send people flying all over the place and it takes a 6th of their health so you're just fighting and fighting and fighting gets tedious .. this coming from someone who's favorite game of the late 90s early 00's was capcom vs snk because i'm a huge Fatal Fury fan.

As far as best fighter goes overall .. Tekken will get my vote every single time.

You guys have no idea what you're talking about, MvC is anything but a mashers game.

You act like you're the only one that's ever played that game .. I've played every one of them plus the one vs snk as well as kof .. it's all the same. You seem to be blinded by either fandom or you think just because you don't ever button mash that other people cant either.

I challenge you to go on mvc on normal arcade mode and play with 3 people you've never used .. and button mash the piss out of that game and i can guarantee that you'll make it at least halfway through.

I have to disagree only because it's button masher friendly .. you can do amazing combos just by hitting random buttons.

Pick an arcade anywhere .. or just go online on mvc3 and play some beginners .. youll get owned by a masher eventually.

As somebody that has participated and organized fighting game tournaments for the last 10 years, including Final Round (largest east coast tournament + the BEST Tekken competition), I can tell you beyond a reasonable doubt that your claim is 100% false when any competent player is on the sticks.

Sure the law of averages dictate that it will eventually happen, and with the increasing prevalence of comeback mechanics (ie: T6 rage mode, MvC3 xfactor, etc) it is becoming easier for lesser skilled players to steal wins from better players, but that by no means makes it a masher. I will gladly money match any masher in any fighter outside of Shaq Fu and Rise of the Robots :p

Lol I rem shaq fu .. god that game was awful XD SNES for the win ..

Well see thats the difference here you are talking about competition players .. i'm referring to decent as in can do moves without mashing .. duh a masher would get trashed by a good player.

I was also only referring to MVC series. I've played against mashers in MVC , SF , Tekken , and MK .. and easiest to mash to hardest would be .. MVC , Tekken , SF , and MK ..

Mk makes it harder to mash based on each button representing a body part .. tekken does the same , but since the law of gravity is never implied you can juggle while still just button mashing and pull an okay combo because once they hit the ground they can still be juggled.

I don't find any of those 4 to be bad games in fact I love them all , but as far as the mugen 2d style of fighting with MVC goes those who arn't familiar with the series can still be competent vs the computer and other players who don't play much just by button mashing .. that's all im saying.

Also, beating the AI is in no way, shape, or form a measure of skill or the game's depth.

Haven't seen the vid yet. My phone is being a dick and my laptop is being out for repairs :(

Lol it's all good man , it's not all that great that's why i had to use hamster dance as the song , because all i did was a 3 x ray combos each with 3 fighters then a couple more x ray combos with some others and a babality at the end to make it go with the song. I may in the future do one with skillful combos instead of juggle damage only based ones.

Of course a masher can beat a newbie or a scrub. They have equally no idea as to what is going on and unless they decide to space and punish (which they probably won't because they're too busy trying to do moves that they like as opposed to winning) the masher is going to have a much better chance of scoring damage. That is for any game.

You say that MK isn't a masher because each button controls a limb, but Tekken does the same yet you put it as the second masher friendliest game. Mashing Tekken juggle BTW means that youre doing maybe 30-40dmg as opposed to 70-120 (pending walls). Mk is just as juggle happy.

MUGEN style? The versus series has been around long before mugen had a single line of code implemented. In fact mugen derived from the versus series.
