Video summary

The video features a player preparing their main team for Marvel Tokon tournaments, consisting of Loki, Carnage, Hulk, and Magic, with the primary goal of competing in CEO events. The first match pits this lineup against Magneto, a character known for intense zoning tactics that fill the screen with projectiles and create chaotic environments. Despite initial struggles where the player feels overwhelmed by Magneto's ability to control space and land difficult grabs, the team manages to adapt by utilizing wall breaks and strategic swaps to regain momentum. The match is described as confusing due to the sheer volume of on-screen effects, but the player eventually secures a victory after learning to handle the zoning pressure and capitalize on openings created by Magneto's aggressive playstyle. The second game presents a stark contrast with Spider-Man, who relies on non-stop aggression, high-low threats, and unpredictable web attacks rather than zoning. This matchup proves significantly more challenging as the player struggles against Spider-Man's constant pressure and ability to mix up attacks between aerial and ground levels. The team composition faces difficulties when Magic is swapped in, as the player admits to not fully mastering that character yet, leading to moments where they are caught off guard by Goblin or web combos. However, through persistent adaptation and utilizing Hulk for corner damage, the player manages to survive the onslaught and force Spider-Man into defensive positions, highlighting the importance of understanding both high and low threats in this specific matchup. The final round against Spider-Man becomes a grueling battle of attrition where the player is down two rounds but refuses to give up despite facing relentless grabs and overhead attacks. The match showcases the psychological toll of the game, with the player expressing fear of missing opportunities or failing to execute combos under pressure. Key moments include risky grabs that fail, missed parries against projectile juggles, and the critical need to manage green bars for assists effectively. Ultimately, the player turns the tide by forcing Spider-Man into mistakes, capitalizing on a risky grab opportunity, and sealing the win with a decisive combo, demonstrating that even in chaotic scrambly games, patience and adaptation can lead to victory. In conclusion, the video serves as both a showcase of team composition strategies and a candid look at the learning curve required to master Marvel Tokon's complex mechanics. The player emphasizes that while their current team is strong enough for tournaments, there is still room for improvement, particularly in mastering Magic and handling specific matchups like Spider-Man. The experience highlights the importance of managing resources like assist gauges and green bars, adapting to different playstyles ranging from zoning to high-speed aggression, and maintaining composure when facing opponents who are better at certain aspects of the game. The video ends on a positive note, expressing confidence that once the player fully integrates Magic into their rotation, this team will become devastatingly powerful in competitive play.

Marvel Tokon has been out for a little while now, and with the time I am starting to zero in on what I believe is going to be my main team. And that team is Loki, Carnage, Hulk, and Magic. But, is this team good enough for a tournament? I entered CEO and plan to compete with this exact team. So, if I'm going to get ready, it needs to happen now. If you like these Tokon videos and want to see more, definitely leave a like and let me know who you want to see played down below in the comments. But, with that said, let's get into the ranked games. Let's start it off. We've got the main team we've been cooking so far today, but things can change at any moment. Hurry! We don't like that. Okay, that could have been better. Okay, I'm noticing a lot of zoning. Okay, a lot I haven't actually played against the Magneto man, so this this could get dirty. You can just drop it down? I didn't know you could just drop that down. Is Magneto kind of filth? Is he kind of filthy at the game? Is this actually perfect legend, by the way? What up, bro? I couldn't get the Carnage swap. A late Carnage swap kind of ruined my life there. All right, Hulk. Don't get too don't get too uppity. Oh, no. I didn't have any green bar? Hey, Carnage stuff. Oh, no. I should I was trying to go for my axe. Trying to go for the axe in a block string. Opponent hasn't done any wall splats yet. They need one here. They need their team. All right, there it is. I was going to say, we we we should expect one. Do I get ready with the super? No, we're going to play it straight. Watch when he grabs and might come out. Okay, we're fine with this. I'm just going to take a super. I'm a little too worried to drop it. That's Carnage. We got to let Carnage talk to him sometimes. Let's get Loki back out here though. This is again, we we we are finally starting to get that full swap ability we want a team. Nice. He kept it true. No grabs. That's a counter. Uh I think he was confused. This I mean this whole match is confusing to be honest. Can anybody tell what's going on? There's so much metal on the screen. Something tells me this is not advantage me at all. Where is the metal coming from? I [laughter] can't see. Perry, we got to take back a little bit of the control here. No. I got to I got to get random guys. I got to get ran There is so much garbage on the screen that I got I got to just do something to take back control. That's negative. I thought I had an assist gauge. Woah, what a combo. Dash again. Wait a minute, Magneto getting a little quizzy. I actually haven't seen much Magneto. This is kind of intense zoning. Let me get right though. No, that's not a good drop. That's not a good drop at all. Dang, I couldn't get over. Uh we were working our way there. If we didn't drop it, we were in such good uh a good place to win the game there. Oh no, don't get emotional. Don't get emotional. Don't get emotional from the zoning. I'm starting to I'm starting to feel that fever, that rage. That that when you when you when you just know like you just want to play the game. We all know that feeling, bro. Like what is going on with me? And I have no assist gauge left. No! This can't be the end. That dashing combo is really nice though. 100 meter is a little scary. Wall is not permanently here, so if he 100 meter, I don't know if this kills. It might. It might. OH, I'VE NO! [screaming] I MEAN, THAT WAS A GOOD GAME. That was a good game. We had too many drops there that really affected us, but we can lock in and win this. We can handle the zoning. We really can. We just need to pick our spots a little better. Pick our spots a little better. This is a a good match to get the Wow, that air dash in low. Sometimes it makes me mad cuz like I'll be getting cooked and I know that like if you don't know enough about the game like you can't even appreciate that I'm getting cooked by like some crazy stuff right now. I will just take a basic wall break by the way. Basic wall break with Loki, there's a good chance to establish some form of dominance here. We'll take a wall. That was a slow throw, but sometimes you need to mix it up. Now you're going to stand there and let me play the game. Oh, pressure! That's what Hulk's here for. Beautiful stuff. We're going back out into Loki though. Loki is kind of our No way we drop that. Another big moment in the game where like that is not supposed to happen. Nice parry. Okay. I I crossed up. I got crossed up part two. That time I got crossed up by Magneto. Beautiful. Love that. Oh, wow. I mean, that's just good defense by my opponent. That's just good defense, great patience. I can't even hate because I tried my best. I can't even hate because I tried my best, bro, like sometimes you're good and your opponent is better in that way, bro. Like, I can't hate. But, we do live. How do I get random here? No, don't get random. Play Play defense. I don't know why I did that. This is going to be hard for Hulk. I think switching out into the Hulk was a a big decision that we made that maybe I wasn't Oh, we just get done in with a jumping kick? That's not [laughter] how I wanted to go out. All right, let's get Hulk out here. I mean, Loki, what? Okay. Oh, no. Oh, we didn't want that. I thought it for sure you'd go for a grab eventually. Wow, that was really bad. We need to get a wall splat here. NO! THE BRAKES ARE SUPER DOESN'T HIT. I mean, this is fine. I can't believe we did it again, guys. We'll take a low light. Honestly, I think at that point my opponent just accepted they lost, but I dropped it. I'm terrible at finishing the job right now. Nice. Good range. Oh, no. Nice parry. Calm it down a little bit. Oh, no. No! Good pick up by my opponent, but they does they do drop it. Wow, Magneto sir has a way of filling up the screen. >> [laughter] >> Magneto has a way of filling up the screen, bro. Like, come on, bro. All right. Simple, just spend the meter. We probably could have Honestly, we could have token assembled. That is my bad. We could have spent the extra 50 and it would have would have been fine. No. That counter is really unfortunate for us. I didn't know which way to block. I got scared. I actually just blocked Storm's way. That is so terrible. My opponent does have token assembled, but is only going to spend the 100 like me. Interesting. Spends the 100. This is going to bring me down. I'm now losing the match. We do have parry as an option. >> Oh god, don't get caught. Don't get swept up in the emotion of it all. No, I went for a counter. Oh my god, well that was a great first set, but terrible for the win-loss ratio of the video. 2-0, but it was a good 2-0. It was a lot of zoning and we played it pretty good for what it was. Let's get into the next game. Now we got to go up against the Spider-Man, man. This is the exact opposite of zoning. This is going to be non-stop aggression, but we can do it, too. Oh no. Oh no, I wanted the swap, too. Nice grab. I wanted to swap to Carnage, but I just absolutely got Okay, a wall break. We are in nowhere, so this map has no permanent walls at all. Love it. Love it. That's why Hulk is here. When we get in the corner, we do big damage combos. Now sit down, Hulk. This isn't about you. You're not in this episode. See, I got to call that a little earlier with Hulk. Nice, we blocked the over once. Yeah, but then he goes into the low, man, and then I'm not ready for the low. See, that's Spider-Man in a nutshell. Honestly, if you know those two things, you can get really far with Spider-Man in this game. The high and low threat. Now let me get Oh, see, he's scary stuff out here. We got to be ready to 2H. Ah, he's going high-low. He's threatening the Spider-Man high-low. You got to be ready, guys. Harry, sit him down. Oh god, I wanted I wanted to go into Loki so bad. Look at the pressure. Look at the PRESSURE WITH HULK. THAT'S WHAT YOU GOT TO DO. There's more to this game than just having one swap. Uh uh Uh Okay, so that time I wanted to switch out. And then I I got hit low again. He's really farming me on the low profile. So, we got to we got to crouch a little longer. We got to crouch a little longer. Oh, why did Loki come out? I'll let you guys guess if I wanted a if I wanted magic in. I don't know how to play magic I do I need to learn magic next. >> instead of playing against me. >> See, the thing is, bro, like why is magic so good that I don't need to know how to play magic? I don't need to know how to play magic. Magic knows how to play magic. Uh I got hit by Goblin. Spider-Man and Goblin teaming up. That's how I know this got to be a video game. Uh Beautiful. He's He's got the super to add on. We need to get magic the hell out of here, bro. Like magic needs to leave yesterday. Harry, that's that's a good chance. All right, we'll switch into Hulk immediately. Oh god. Don't let him get a block string. Ah, that's what I didn't want to have happen. BUT, INSTEAD OF AH, CAN YOU TELL I I WAS JUST happy to live. I was just so happy to be alive. Okay, how do we untangle our team? I think we untangled it. That's the hardest part of playing Tokonami right now is like is my Loki not getting crispier by the day? Is my Loki not getting crispier by the the end of the day, bro? Like I'm starting to implement the fakes, the faints, the mix. It's all starting to come along. See, we finally blocked it low. Now that evil is defeated, bro. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Oh, magic. I'm sorry. That's nothing I can do. I went for it. It was a faint. >> [laughter] >> All of them fakes. They were all just lies and illusions. I'm glad we won that one. Final round, we need to win here. >> So, Dr. B loving the >> Oh, no. No. No. How do I get hit there? Spider-Man, please. You got to play fair. You can't be this dishonest with me. You just got to tell me the truth, man. All right, I'll sit down over here. Harry, I just I probably should have two-hit that, but No. He's going to He's going to web in. God, I can't buy enough time to save my life. Let me get one hit, Peter. Let me get one hit. Oh, you got hit, bro. Congratulations. You just lost the Hulk. Come on. Come on. That's how you win close games. I'm switching between all three members of the party right now. I'm juggling magic magic play too to be fair, but I just didn't want magic to play like that was a mistake. All right, we're back to a very slow version of token now. Wall break. You got to be willing to adjust. All right, so then no not Venom whoa. Carnage bro I I I misnamed him and he killed me bro. He killed me. I I I just panicked. When I look at Carnage I see Venom sometimes. All right, we're block I I was going to say we're blocking low. I was committing to the low. He's been doing that too much. We got to let him get a few overheads. He has no green bars so that overhead's really not an option. Yeah, overhead's really not an option. >> [gasps] >> Spider-Man's so dishonest man. He's so dishonest bro. Like how do you how do you do do that? Wow, he actually got the grab off before I can hit the button. That's really risky. Don't do that again. Damn. Oh, and I don't get the combo man. Yeah, just grab me. I don't get the combo is insane bro. I can't get low fast enough. I can't get low. I'm getting struck low a million times and I'm not learning. All right, we out. Crossover again? Little risky. Let's get some more assist out here. Nice grab. Punishing me for playing normal. Spider web. What? I don't even know what hit me. Was it another web bomb? All right, we're down two rounds. I'm not going to give up on believing though. Let's get Loki back out here. Oh my god, what a drop. What a drop. All right, we'll take a super. Nice. Good counter. Oh, and then that just goes into an overhead. But he's done that every time now, so that's that's just how he likes to play it, so we don't have to be afraid of the low. Spider-Man is so crazy. Like you there's so much you need to be looking at when Spider-Man is playing offense that it's insane. Ah, he baited me. Nice grab again, but I'm not I don't mind getting grabbed here. That's going to take us back out. Let's go. I'm glad he didn't do anything crazy there. I have to I have to super. Oh, that sucked. I thought that was going to have so much more damage. Where was the damage? Maybe it would have done enough with wall break. I don't know. No, I wanted to swap to Loki again. All right, Hulk. You're out here now. You're out here now, Hulk. You got to play the game. You got to play the game, bro. Oh, Hulk. Oh, it's so much damage. I'm sorry you had to live through that. It wasn't your fault. Oh, and then an instant overhead. Spider-Man! He's so good. All right, big time webs. Throw me away. We'll block that. >> [groaning] >> I'll take it. I mean this is going to break break screen. Does he parry here? He would be crazy to. [ __ ] NO, I EVEN WAITED. I WAS SO PATIENT. AH, [screaming] 2H would have been nice. >> [gasps and laughter] >> Ah, 2H would have been nice. Okay, keep fighting. It's 1-1. It's 1-1. We've shown that we can win this match up. We just got to grit our teeth and actually get it done. Let's get it. Oh my god. Ah, you know what? If you want to run up and grab, I'd rather get hit by that than anything else. >> [screaming] >> I can't believe it, bro. I needed I should have just transitioned. I should have transitioned into the lights, got the wall break, and got a character assist, and then pressure on the switch. Like that's really bad. Oh, and then he grabs again. He grabs again. He He likes his grabs. I got to keep an eye out. If I If I If I die to the grab, that's when we need a tech. Anywhere else, I'm fine taking the grab. Okay, I mean that cost me. Wow, good conversion. Holy. This might be his full team here. Yep, that's the full team unlock. Look for the web if he webs with 2H. Yep, I knew it. Oh my god. >> Every time. Oh, no 2H from Hulk. It's fine. But then I stand I didn't stand up again. You got to stand up through all the mix. You have to just tank so much mix. My goodness. All right, we're down two rounds again, but this is not the end of our story, believe me. Believe me, I have 150 meter. Okay, that sucked. Too much assist. Perfect. So you're just not interested in playing. Wall break, please. No. Nice overhead. That's going to cost us all of our green but No, not my dual sense battery. I want to save a little bit for defensive purposes. NO! MY AH, IT'S FINE. WE HAVE TWO green bars now and he can't kill us off this. He can do a lot of damage. Level 50, okay. We have enough for crossover, but he can counter that, so I don't know about that. Perfect again. That one hurts. That one actually hurts. Oh, and then just overhead for no reason. Like he's actually he just knows that it's stupid, so he's doing it. Ah, I tried to hit him with a medium, man. I tried to hit him with a medium. It was too much. It was too much. We got to adapt to Spider-Man. That was the hardest part of that set. All right, we need a nice and easy 2-0 set. I'm not saying that's going to be what this is, but I need to force IT TO BE. OH, OH, terrible start. Sometimes I open my mouth and I just I just embarrass myself. Early wall break for my opponent. He's got more Oh, he has Spider-Man on his team. Guys, I'm scared. Oh, come on. You got to hold that out. Oh, man. I'm really struggling to get come I'm like overthinking it. I don't have any assist to call. Go for it. And then he knows I have no crossover bar, so he crosses over. Actually genius, I've got to take advantage. Smart players are usually more of fearful on defense. Oh. Uh, he's not letting me cross over at all. He Okay, well, I You know what? Maybe the correct thing to say is he's not letting me play at all. He He's hitting that crossover button frame one. We need to keep a little green bar in the in the bank in order to stop that. Nice. >> [groaning] >> Nice 2H. I didn't think he was going to have the patience. I was dropping him with some buttons. Down around We can't We can't lose ourselves here. Oh, wow. That sucked. Okay. He's got necrosis on him. Like, I can do damage right now. That was I mean, it wasn't like it did a ton of damage, but that was a nice little like confirm. Like, he kind of was thinking with that one. This is where the That's where the mix starts coming in play. Okay, I wasted a bar. I wasted another bar. Wow, what a confirm. All right, let's do the low-key combo. No. But because we suck at the game, he drops his combo and now I just super for round. I thought I dropped the super as well. Ooh, no. I'm too nervous. I feel like we can win this game easy. Wow, that crossed me up. Wow, that was kind of interesting. I don't know why it lasts more than one block, but it blocked me twice and then I got bumped back into the blade. It was kind of smart. I like I'm seeing a lot of interesting concepts here. I'll just do this. I could have extended that combo more, but I'm afraid. I'm so fearful, bro. I need to get some green bar back. Maybe I should have broken the wall actually. Why am I so afraid of breaking the wall? Let's see. Should I go for a grab? Oh, well now I'm in a pickle. I thought he would go for the grab for sure. He's going to do his like confirm thing again. No, he dropped it. It was a little interesting, bro. Like you're going to drop that interesting [ __ ] I hope. This combo's got to end up I don't know if that reset was intentional or not, but it pissed me off. I did I should have used a bar. >> AXE. OH, [screaming] I SHOULD HAVE held the axe. >> [gasps] >> You did the parry if I would have waited. All right, we're dead like we can't lose this round. I love that. No, don't drop pressure. I just I clicked the buttons and then I just stopped breathing for some reason. We had a decent carnage combo going and we could have just thrown anything on it. Carnage combo, don't fail me now. I failed it. Wow, whenever I parry it's the most embarrassing thing you've ever seen. I'm getting juggled by a a single projectile. Oh, this is like the worst way to lose. Mix up time. Watch the carnage pressure. Let's go. Don't ever in your life panic against me. NO. OH, [screaming] IT WAS A RISKY GRAB. I'm not going to lie. It was a risky grab. I need this to be a 2-0 set. We cannot lose. We're right on the cusp of victory. Perfect. You got to seal that team away. You can't play your team now. No. No, I tried to I tried to do a I dumb stoop super. Fake carnage pressure. Why I didn't get my I didn't get my claws. I didn't get my claws out. Oh god, I'm so afraid. Oh! Yes! I just need to be something different. I don't need to be carnage. I need to be carnage PARENTHESIS SHARK FORM. LET'S GO, BABY. >> [laughter] >> That's what we need to do to win. And now my opponent will be tilted and now we'll get the easy 2-0 and vibranium 2 will be like safe for a little while longer. You know, credit to my opponent, he's getting these conversions and he's getting inside my head more than anything. No. No, good button clicks. He just clicks them at such a good pace. Oh god, at least it wasn't me and carnage, I guess. Break the wall. Like do it now though. Like don't don't you don't need to do all this extra stuff. You didn't You don't want the wall break? Oh my god, neither do I. Neither do I, man. What do I care about wall breaks? >> [screaming] >> Oh my god. Huh. I can't believe it. I can't believe we still won. That was awful. That was awful, but you know what? Sometimes you're going to need to win scrambly games. Beautiful. Are we finally finished being losers? Let's take an easy wall break there. That's going to get us some money back. I'm going to do this into unique. That's to keep pressure up. I actually have no idea how to use Loki's unique. Like I I I need to add that to the repertoire. Perfect. Oh, that's just game. That's game. Now we're on two rounds. I told you my opponent was going to get tilted. My opponent was going to get tilted and once you're tilted in Toon Town, it's it's as good as over. Okay, that was a wall break, but I didn't and necessarily intend for that. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, it's over. It's so over. It's so over. We're so back. I didn't I forgot to click heavy. Oh, I I I'm so out of the zone. I just forgot to click heavy, but that was the 2-0 match that I wanted to get. Vibranium 2, we're getting a bit up there. I feel like if I learn magic, this team is going to be devastating. Oh, man. But, I'm going to end the video there for now. If you enjoyed it, let me know in the comments. Leave a like, subscribe, and I will see you in the next Toon Town video. Bye.
