Brother, You're Needed - Ultimate Thor Team Building Thread

If anybody has Shuma-gorath on 360, would you be willing to license transfer with me?

pokemon boards that way —>

I don’t believe in Thor/Frank I’ve seen a Thor/Frank/Sentinel play casuals and it wasnt performing out the ordinary or anything. Mind you this was a while ago before anyone was really optimizing Frank combos which you need especially if he’s in the middle. I’m still not 100% sold on the idea of them together even with doom in the back. Thor/Shuma/Doom sounds like a better back up plan if it doesn’t work out well with Frank

Dudes name is Gimmix and hes really good. The Thor Frank tech he uses is awesome, instant level 4-5 and you can stuff someone with Mighty Tornado on incoming, DHC into Franks grab super. His biggest problem imo, is that if Thor dies without leveling Frank, its way hard for Frank to do anything with Sent. Iv been playing Thor/Frank/Dante to try and solve that problem.

Could anyone help me link :m: Mighty Smash into cr. :h:? Im trying to learn this combo

That’s the player I was talking about yeah he’s about as good as his team is letting him to be. He has nice meter shenanigans and all that but IMO I wouldn’t take that team seriously as is.

Thor Frank Dante? Thats someone using their noggin. As for link cr h after mighty smash make sure you’re spacing it correctly sometimes it’ll wiff if you’re too close

Ha yeah thanks, I just dont see any synergy with Sent and Dante is just a way better char/anchor, and of course gives Frank extremely practical leveling options.

Im trying to do that combo in the corner as to minimize spacing issues, but I just cant get the cr. :h: out fast enough, I only landed it once. The worst part is its necessary for the jam session timing, so I cant just to :s:. Im hoping i can get it down, otherwise right now it seems impractical to connect the cr. :h: off the :m: Mighty Smash

That’s all timing with the CR. H, sir. Gotta practice!

I’ve seen a few people mention using Dante on here…how in the hell are you guys comboing off of Jam Session consistently? I’ve been able to come up with this for hitting a grounded opponent:

jam session hits, j.:l:, j.:m:, j.:s:, s.:l:, :s:, sj.:m:, :m:, :h:, :s:, pickup of some kind

Anything more and I can’t get a full combo due to hitstun deterioration, and if they’re jumping, it’s really, really hard to get anything consistent. I’ve found if you perfectly time an air mighty strike you can get something but that seems very artificial.

I’ve also seen people said they’re using weasel shot but I’d rather not because I’m trying to make Thor/Doom/Dante work. I’m tempted to switch to Thor/Doom/Ammy if I can’t get jam session to work but I’d rather not because it isn’t as interesting.

As far as I can tell, getting your synergy with jam session is just a matter of repetition. After awhile you kind of get the timing in your head and how to confirm off different kinds of jam session hits. Its personally a pain for me… So i dont use dante with thor, but I’ve seen it work for sure.

Comboing off jam session is easier to extend and end combos. Using for open ups will scale combos earlier on if they’re popping out at a specific point use that to set up at reset or a tac alley oop to Doom.

Are you using Missiles/Jam Session or Beam/Crystal?

Missiles/Jam Session. I wanted to use it to help with his up close neutral game to provide quick lockdown/blockstrings, since missiles aren’t really used in that way.

If you’re using Jam Session switch Doom to Plasma Beam and if you’re using Missiles switch Dante to Crystal try that out and see what happens. Missiles and Jam Session are too similar for Thor to be using on the same team IMO.

Quick lockdown and blockstrings are easier for Thor with Crystal once a blocked Jam Session pushes your opponent away Thor won’t be able to capitalize and mix up as fast as Zero or Magneto

Plasma beam will help get you in and chance tech rolls with a high low or command grab. Jam session can keep your opponent locked on incoming and extend combos. As your team is Missiles/Jam Session will get lamed out by a lot of the games current nonsense

You guys are seriously sleeping on Thor and Crystal assist.

You don’t find crystal to be slow? I’ve tried it and it feels like dante is writing a letter to his mom before he does anything. Other than otg… Wouldn’t Weisel shot do what u want crystal to do but better?

Crystal isn’t slow it’s just as fast Cold Star if not faster. Thor has slow normals and strings so crystal only compliments that. The mix ups become multi layered and ambiguous with the Crystal animation lingering.

Weasel shot comes and goes quick and will only gets you one good chance to open someone up If Thor is on point it’s jam session or crystal all day for me

Thor Frank is basically the same Thor Dormammu gameplan in a lower tier

If you’re doing it after the otg h smash it’s just timing.

You have to hit them with the m smash when they’re relatively high in the air to connect the cr.h after. So on the ground you would have to cancel from st.h.

You might be able to forego the cr.h by plinking the assist button slightly before hitting the launcher as well. Sometimes a couple of extra frames is all it takes. Haven’t tested though, but jam session is one of the fastest assists in the game.

Thor/Frank is just the meter sink version of Thor/She Hulk

what? no

you get a hit, your neutral level up cause dorm and frank lv5 with momentum are strong; its a tier lower cause dorm spells game with momentum is stronger than lv5 frank and because if you get hit and thor dies to a infinite or to zero/hulk/strange loops your chances to win are much lower, even if thor survives your counterattack options are more limited

Spoiler

dont ever mention the duo thor/shehulk again btw, its all kinds of ass and should be removed from existence

Frank and she hulk are the same character expect she hulk has no gimmick

They’re both liabilities either way. lol
