What do you think about V.Joe with Strider? He can’t pick up off of it, but as a zoning tool with Red Voomerangs, it could be pretty mean. Jam Session is probably Joe’s best assist, so I was contemplating trying to pick up the Dante/Strider shell with him…
I’m sure you can get some pretty creative extensions with him. Also, knockdowns give you time to charge voomerangs. I’d say experiment with it and report your findings. You never know.
Are those characters you listed characters that go well with POINT strider or strider as an assist?
Depends on what your going for
I personally think the best strider team period is Strider/Dante/Magneto (switch magneto second for the tac infinites) that solves the damage issue
My other favorite team is Strider/Strange/Dante. Maybe its just me but I consistently get the FOF loops off legion/rings dhc in the corner.
Those 2 teams definitely can fix his damage issue. You could also run something similar by subbing out for spencer or vergil. Take your pick.
IMO it’s Strider/Vergil/Magneto. RapidSlash is probably one of Strider’s best assists at extending his combos while being attached to a character that can give him TOD due to swords.
Also, I’ve said it before that Strider’s best assist is disruptor. Without a fucking doubt.
Characters that most take advantage of Vajra.
I agree with this list except there is 1 in particular I am curious about. She-Hulk. Aside from the ability to keep the fight on the ground what else is she getting from vajra?
I think that’s all you need. She suffers from people flying around all day.
Not only does it help keep characters on the ground, but she can combo from a knockdown two different ways and it’s one of the best assists at extending her combos. There’s also tick grab setups using it.
That’s an example.
I don’t, if you are going to use an assist character and say its REALLY GOOD that means it needs to do multiple things essential to making a character better. Just giving 1 Combo extension isn’t a good enough reason to justify a characters. If a character allows you to implement your game better, makes you more oppressive and fixes something like a damage or meter build issue then I can see that. For me seeing shehulk with strider the immediate thing I WENT TO was air control. Outside of that he doesnt really help her weaknesses to zoning. I didn’t know he could get those TIC setups either so that adds more utility in that assist. So for me OVERALL UTILITY matters in my support/anchor CHARACTERS. Now of course this would differ if I am using someone like ZERO and having Jam session is all he would need to make his game perfect. Understandable in that sense.
In any case I see what Marvelo sees so I can understand the usage of vajra on She-hulk better. Thanks for the Information Marv!
Running Strider/Doom(all assists)/Vergil. Team is very strong imo, shoutouts to formation C!
what do you guys think of dante(jam session) strider(vajra) mag(disruptor)
Strider with Doom Rocks is awesome. Slow-moving projectile everyone seems to forget about after a Strider teleport.
Team will suffer in the damage department. Other than that, it’s OKAY, but it would be much better with Vergil instead of Strider. Pick between Magneto and Strider if you want to play Dante. You can’t play both. Unfortunately.
Strider will all of Doom’s assists is awesome. Strider does amazing with missiles, beam, AND rocks. Which is the best for him, I’m not sure. They’re all great.
I definitely want to play Dante strider and I don’t mind giving up mag to do so but is there anyone I else I could play besides zero or vergil preferable with Dante on point
Many characters benefit from the Dante/Strider shell. However, if you want to play Dante on point…
Dante/Doom/Strider, Dante/Felicia/Strider, etc. Look up characters that are good with Strider and take it from the there.
Try Dante/Morrigan/Strider
Its okay but where are you going to get any kinda damage from other than tacs? I could however see some very VEry VERY stupid mixups with that team.
So I’ve experimenting for a long time trying to find the perfect point Strider team, and I may have found it with Strider/Strange/Akuma.
The extensions with Bolts/Tatsu and the mixups/zoning capabilities are pretty ridiculous. Not to mention you can setup faltine loops and even rawtag Akuma during ground/wall bounce combos.
I recommend people to experiment with it and report what you find!
Got any video of bnbs for this team or just some matches with it? It looks pretty fun, I know strange/akuma is pretty legit as I usually run bolts for my point akuma team lol.
Not yet because my Avermedia died on me, but soon I’ll have some.
In the meantime, the standard corner ender with bolts after an air series is, call strange, activate satellite, shoot satellite, cr.H, S, SJC, wallcling, LMH, Gram H, activate sat, Gram L, shoot sat, vajra H, super
