An early access advantage
When I think ofMarvel vs. Capcom, I think of Justin Wong.
While there are plenty of other big names in the community like ChrisG or Filipino Champ, some of my favorite FGC matches of all time are from Wong’s work in theMarvel vs. Capcom 2scene. We’ll have to wait a little bit, it seems, to see him inInfinite.
Announced via Twitter, Wong will not be competing formally in the game until October, despite the game’s September 19 release. The reason for this delay is because he’s had early access to the game, and thinks that with his bout of extra practice, it wouldn’t be fair on others.
Now, you’re able to either see this as a kindness to the community so he doesn’t wipe the floor with them, or a form of showmanship. Either way Wong is a huge name in theMarvel vs. Capcomcommunity, and when he does make his debut, it’ll probably be explosive.
