I think Doom Ammy against Dorm Doom isn’t as free as the match against Strange Ammy. You don’t have to just THC for this team to work even if! you’d use it sparingly not your only offensive option If you actually play competent Doom. Save the THC option for clapping assists if You’re down in a match or for the incoming mixup that’s where You also make use of the vale of mist.
I’ve never Photon Array to Veil Of Mist personally but that’s because I’m using missiles instead of beam. I’ll DHC to mighty punish and go from there.
Update on my progress with Thor Vergil Dante. Mighty spark sets up nice mix ups because it doesn’t behave like a normal beam like assist. Vergil on point against characters with a stronger neutral than Thor is the best idea for this team since most will die in a combo. Vs Wesker Spencer I’ll play Vergil on point build a bar during the scrambles for the enevitable rapid slash Into swords to confirm a body. Against Hawkeye I’ll start Dante being able to bold cancel whiffed buttons helps miles in that match since my Vergil can’t hang against him. Against Magneto Doom Morrigan I’ll have jam session available but for the most part I’m using crystal until I can utilize jam session better all around. My Vergil is still fraud like
im not sure if you guys labbed with Hawkeye scatter shot assist with Thor but its damn good tool for him. Its a great combo extender b/c of the soft knock down falling state and it keeps in check super jump happy flight characters.
I’ve been playing around with Thor, Vergil, Dr. Strange. I found, on you tube, some great ideas for Thor to Vergil and Thor to Strange DHC’s. Stuff that goes into the sword loops and the FoF loops. The team would work just as well with doom, I saw some Thor to Dante hard tag set-ups in a combo video and tested them with doom and most of them work.
Hey, fellow Asgardians. I feel like Thor only needs a good lockdown assist/combo extender to do well after some time playing him(2 years, yeh); he covers neutral pretty well on his own. Having basically any tool conceivable in Marvel 3; a way in that ignores projectiles in Strike, a SOLID command grab in terms of damage and range in Hurricane, a criminally under-rated beam in Spark, even priority-wise; I’ve used to beat Doom Plasma Beam clean, either stuffing Doom or winning the beam duel, and a solid tridash game to boot(it’s still VERY fast, and does solid damage; it’s just as unreactable as Magneto tridashes in any case, I don’t care if it’s a few frames, IIRC like 3-5, slower; still gotta guess HARD, and watch for grabs, too).
I feel like he’s SUPER solid solo with a smart player, but falters when he can’t readily pin a character down; so, lockdown assist, and there have it.
We haven’t been using him to his full potential, either, and neither have I(I was blind to how he’s actually objectively super-beastly, but I was blind to a lot of stuff before 2014); and I see now that his tools are actually REALLY good(ALL 3 VERSIONS OF SPARK BEAT ALL OR MOST BUTTERBEAM VERSIONS CLEAN BY STUFFING IT OR OVERPOWERING IT), and he kinda has more tools available than almost any other character; his speed is his only true flaw, and that’s on the ground; everything else was/is us being the weak link.
Never too late to (re)gain faith in our shared God, I say.
I’m not quite sure how to even phrase this question. But for the thor/strange users… Got advice on calling bolts assist? I know strange is out for awhile, but I’ve been celebrating my birthday often,… unwillingly lol. I figure I’m not doing my best to cover him.
Don’t call him any closer than two thirds screen anymore and it’s the danger zone. Practice call him off screen from low C+Bolts then cancel the whiff low C to mighty spark. Use it less like a doom beam and tastu assists and use it sparingly to punish assists. Mighty strike+bolts can also cover strange while helping you advance. Calling assist from super jump height also will help you return to the ground after awkward air recovery or advance forward but pay attention to the p1/p2 bubble on the ground to determine where you’re safe to do what. Improving your overall movement with Thor (ground & air) helps also.
