Gotham City Dumpster is my favorite feature in a fighting game ever

[MADMAN MUNDO]

I just love hurling that thing around, and also punishing power characters desperately trying to smash the thing to get it off the playing field. Batgirl teleport helps with this.

It's just so satisfying.

Anyone got any fun dumpster tips or fun dumpster related stories?

I like the Piano more... or the Pig... but the Dumpster is cool. There was one time where I hit my opponent 5 times with it... lol. He didn't know what to do.

Gotham Alley ... is there a better stage for gadget characters, if they're facing a power character? :-O

Atlantis...

I don't play much Gadget characters, so I'm usually on the receiving end of these Dumpsters. But, when I do play the only Gadget character I know(Scorps), it's pretty fun. It's like pinball.

Atlantis...

Power characters have better options on Atlantis than on Gotham Alley.

Gotham Alley's been my jam since the demo for that very reason.

Except when I'm pumping Venom.

True... true... I don't think there is a better stage.

The fact that the "hose" is usable infinitely in Atlantis regardless of what power characters do is huge. The trash can and the hydrant can be taken away, gadget's options in Atlantis never are.

That, and the pole in the middle (also infinitely usable) is helpful for a lot of gadget characters in certain matchups. Yes, power characters have better options, but so do you.

Yeah, but at the same time power characters can inflict much more damage on you with the interactibles in Atlantis, if they go for it.
It's easier to avoid the interactibles on Gotham Alley, since they're not full screen / tracking.

I do see what the advantages of Atlantis are, but at the same time these advantages are only better for a certain type of gadget characters. Everyone who wants to go in will care less about the corners on Atlantis and be more afraid of meter burned versions of the wave coming from power characters.

I personally would rather take the Gotham Alley, since even if the power characters destroy the interactibles, it's a neutral ground then and for me it was easier to avoid the interactibles.
