i really, REALLY, hate the normals of viper and viper doesnt have any full screen hyper to punish assists, and the DHC synergy between ryu and wesker is great.
after phantom dance shinku hadouken hit all , after a midscreen air tatsu + shinku hadouken to bottom --> dhc phantom dance get all hits,
and also i REALLY hate doom, that ridiculous spam of air S to lead to some combo… no thanks.
btw, im really enjoying the team Zero/Iron fist /wesker, but that is another topic =p
thats just how new doom players use him. they go for the easy thing instead of actually trying to mix up the opponent. dont think we’re all like that. if youre looking for every character on your team to benefit from eachother, I would say to drop ryu for someone who can self otg or even sentinel. felicia,akuma,doom,hawkeye…etc are all good choices.
i like felicia, but hers lack of projectiles and yet again “punish assists” and overheads doesnt make her > ryu, trade a 1kk hp with a almost the SAME gameplay with 750k ? akuma sucks, as i said, i hate doom and hawkeye is : “stay away, dont come any closer, eat arrows -------> super jump to the other side ----> repeat the running” and yet again, hawkeye doesnt have overhead and the only hyper with invencible start up is his lvl 3, the same to felicia.
to me, right now, the only char that MAYBE can substitute Ryu is Zero, but zero extremely sucks with strider on the same team, that is why i have a second team Zero/Iron fist / wesker =P but iron fist is dificult to win =/
Why pray tell do you need a hyper with invincible start up so badly? Also, there is alot more to Hawkeye than you think, he has some nice mixups. Akuma was good last game and basicly got better in this with his new airborne demonflip. Anywho, my recommendation would be Nova, good mixups, and good damage
why do you think people loves spencer ? lvl 1 invencible-almost-full-screen hyper =P, but a team without at least one of these i cant play, for exemple Magneto/Storm/Hsien ko, Akuma in Vanilla is ok, in ultimate theres so many better than him and nova definitely is a suicidal.
Some of my matches with strider. Trying to make him work on point, but it can be quite hard when the random wesker deters a lot of people from playing this game lol.
Lots of mistakes like using the wrong blockstrings and always teleporting behind. Was fun to break his Hawkeye team with Strider. I didn’t close it out though.
The part where I lose is not realizing my bird spam on Ryu (last character) will build 3 bars for Orbs.
Part 1 of a 100 game set between me and my main sparring partner. I’m running Wesker/Viper/Strider, and would appreciate any feedback / criticism. Definitely want to improve my Strider.
I didn’t watch the whole thing but here is a couple of things that might help.
When you do j.h try doing excaliber after it so you get the frame advantage to do what ever.
You need to do more mix ups with formation b. you never teleported with it or anything to do some mix ups.
you need to use formation a1 more when you know you can do it safely. Then wavedash behind it so that you can get a offense started.
Use more varja M and L than H.
you need to be more aggressive with him. Alot of the time i saw you running away pressing j.h.
You need better x-factor level 3 combos. When you are in x-factor with strider you need to make sure you kill people.
Leave some spaces in your orbs so that you can get some left right mix ups.
Mix up your teleports more when orbs is going.
When you know aren’t going to kill without x-factor do some unexpected resets. I know its rough to think about doing that when hes you last character but it puts them into favorable situation for you a lot of the time.
Thats all I can really think of right now but i hope this helps.
Played in my first tourney yesterday and took 1st place at SRK TNT with anchor Strider, I got knocked into losers early and came back to win the whole thing.
Strider saved my ass so much, you might notice that I didn’t use Ragnarok at all and that’s because I was scared that my opponent would pop out due to HSD being too high too late in my combo.
@ 52:00 I get my first stream match against the guy that put me into losers
@1:11:00 I get back on and stay untill Grand Finals
