Strider/Magneto/Ammy is so fun.
Alright, so I’ve been running Ghost Rider / Arthur / Strider, and I just love it (like, enough that I don’t feel like playing Dormammu so much right now). I often DHC through all 3 characters to get Strider on point backed by gold Dagger Toss since the assist basically says “the screen is yours now”, but I don’t have a lot of combo experience with Strider. This is my current bnb:
c.LMHS, sj.MMH, qcf.L, j.MHS, call Chain of Rebuttal + qcb.S, df.H, dash, s.S, sj.MMHS
So, I have Strider’s Formation B charged - any way to make use of that to further the combo, or any suggestions on how to make this longer? Does about 391K with no meter right now, which isn’t bad for Strider.
Afaik, slide prorates too much so it’s better to remove it and just use the Formation B shot then maybe wall cling L M H xx jdpH land qcbS dpL xx qcbS rdpH if it works then go for HKD panther resets. You can also check if your characters can continue Hiryu’s combo after the jdpH by raw tagging and using a 7 frame move, most preferably standing or crouching M.
Also, I might try your suggestion to use Senpu Bu with Hiryu instead of Dorm since you said it helps mobile characters more.
I’m trying to find a suitable combo extender for Hiryu who isn’t Doom or a Sparda Bro. My team is Hiryu/X/Mags. Any suggestions?
sentinel…but its sentinel haha
outside of the box a little…but i think felicia would be good on that team. Not sure how good of a combo extender she is but she does have options her and strider play well together safe dhc…otg legion into kitty helper for silly corner stuff and a beam assist.
Yeah, I’ve tried Hiryu/Mags/Sent but I didn’t like it. I’ve been wanting to use Felicia so I’ll give her a try but I don’t think she benefits from EMD that much… does she?
Would Morrigan/Akuma/Strider work in any order?
Also how high execution is Strider generally?
I think that depends on how you feel about burning your lvl 2 xfactor with her. I believe she can kill off a hit and it creates a nasty little mix up with her 3D move. honestly though i don’t think there is a 3rd that fits that team outside of the usual suspects.
Strider/dorm/mags would be not bad id think. I thought about running spells assist on him

That’s actually my team now, but I feel Hiryu and Dorm don’t mix together that good which is why I want a replacement.
Ill test it out this week and see what my w/l ratios are with it.

Can strider be played on point? Thinking of doing Strider/dante/Magneto, would that team work?
Yea. That’s actually a good team. That’s usually what I run. Use weasel shot for Dante.

Wouldn’t Jam Session be better, as you can use it to combo off a slide after a hard knockdown?
No that’s terrible. Don’t do that. You can otg just fine on your own with a satellite

Jam Session would work for different reasons. Resets and Bird Bomb combo extenders usually.
Weasel shot is ambiguous on its own and gives you fuzzy guard setups which are legit unlike the gimmicks you just described. Also the extension it gives is pure shit and is basically not worth it. At least weasel shot gives you better wake up game and can give you a wall cling extension in iffy situations and off air throw and off vajras.

I’ve been doing pretty good with my Strider/Doom/RR in that order. RR’s Spitfire Twice assist helps Strider out so much. Gonna have some videos up in a little while.
I was thinking about rr/doom/strider just the other day.

Yet lacks Oppressive range from the y axis and X axis and is out for a much shorter duration.
Not true at all.
Not it doesn’t, it gives you mediocre left/right blockstun and no y-axis coverage. Not only does Jam Session last longer, but it’s pressure comes from the X axis and Y-axis and gives Reset value during the move itself and afterward. Also, off any hitconfirmed sj height. Jam Session you can vajra afterward.
With Jam Session, you’re getting a wall cling combo extension as well, and can combo off Vajra; I don’t see your point.
Jam Session is MUCH better for resets and Incomming mixups; and that’s where strider is strongest.
