I’m thinking about running Vergil/ Sentinel/ Strider. What do you guys think? DHC options for damage seem ok, but they seem good for safety. Vergil can use Strider’s assist to extend combos off his OTG and can use drones for mix ups. Sentinel can use Strider assist to keep the opponent grounded and he should be able to keep Strider covered with spit and limbs. Strider with orbs and Lvl 3 x factor seems too good too.
Dat priority. Looks like Strider’s projectiles animate even if he is hit. Lol at the hawk taking out Strange after Strider dies.
Edit: Teleports seem similar to Dante’s in that your opponent can air throw telegraphed ones without assists covering them.
Being in support of all ninjas in 2d fighters I’ll throw ninja party for Strider having his own thread.

WHOOO’S GONNA MAKE THIS PARTY STAARRRRTEEEEEEDDDD???
MEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Well he has a sword, and in marvel that usually equates to good normals. Although his sword doesn’t look as silly as zero’s from gameplay vids, I might be proven wrong come release.
On a side note, Im really surprised at how slow this thread is, not that it reflects the characters quality or anything, I just always thought strider was extremely popular and it would reflect in his character thread. Of course Im sure the fact he was one of the first to be revealed didn’t help him out. Oh well no biggie, just an observation, no doubt this place is gonna get lively when the game(or maybe even when the guide) drops.
Funny enough Strider has had some hardships especially with the Mega Man fans acting like he stole the show from the blue bomber and I hear people on other forums just like to take jabs at Strider for being one of Capcom’s more obscure, older characters that got put in over Mega Man who’s had 18,000 games in comparison.
In reality all of the new character threads are kinda slow because the game is not out yet so we don’t have much to talk about that hasn’t already been talked about. We know he has two level 3’s, we know what his special moves are, maybe we need some more info on his normals but that’ll all come as the game releases. If this was GameFAQs we could type up random fantasy stories about Strider and compare him to Mega Man…but that’s what GF is for.
anyone here gonna get the bible? it’s probably in everyone’s best interest that the OP include his frame data.
one of you strider mains might wanna make the strider combo thread before this paperwork guy does it (who has a hawkeye avatar) hes already made about 6 seperate combo threads in the other character subforums with basically nothing at all in the first post.
Oh yes umvc3 character subforums… WE ARE SO IN THERE
About damn time.
I dunno, his cypher looks just as retarded as zero’s saber aside from the mult-hitting aspect of zero’s. His sword normals look hella fast, and look to have decent range, especially given how good his dash is.
I’ll see if I can get the guide book today and share some stuff with you guys.
True say, plus there hasn’t been a lot of competent strider gameplay since he doesn’t seem as immediately easy to use as our boy in the trench coat.
Lets give the boy time, see if he can actually support the threads(doubt it, especially if paperwork is just paper with a different account) and worst case scenario we just make another one and holla at a mod to close his down.
How long does Strider’s formation C last when initially called?
Since there isn’t much activity going on here, here’s the Strider section of the New Testament posted by Capcom Unity. Feel free to update the first post with what you like Robo.
Bitchin’! It’s really late at night here in Scotland just now, so I’ll have to wait till tomorrow morning to update. I’ll get on it over my morning coffee.
EDIT: So Ame-no-murakamo can be cancelled into satellite shot immediately? Blockstrings ahoy!
It also includes some bnbs you can post in the combo thread. From what I’ve read, Strider seems to have some retarded hitboxes thanks to his sword, dash, and double jump.
Early look at frame data/normals for Strider.
Seth posted up all the frame data for Strider

Holy mother of god, Formation B is probably the fastest projectile in the entire game.
A 2 frame projectile…god damn.
Does nobody know? I’m just trying to figure out if it would be beneficial to have one ready versus calling it and shooting it immediately like I’ve seen thus far.
After Strider calls a formation C, according to guide…the entire move lasts for a half sec.
