One thing I just wanted to point out to Strider vs. Cable.
Never try to teleport when Cable is even on the ground. It’s too risky if you’re fighting against a good Cable because Strider’s teleport has startup time on it.
I say get on Cable using super jump -> double jump method. Once Cable jumps, bust out the orbs or teleport in to get in some cross up and damage.
Yeah thats true, but when cable is on the ground, and you just do a random teleport, then he wont react fast enough, even though strider’s teleport is instant. But a cable jumping back is trouble. I’d say block bombxxorbs
The day when Cable can AHVB on reaction to teleport, is the day I decide to never play again. No one’s reaction time is that fast. If your getting shot because of teleport start-up, then your teleports are just too predictable.
EDIT: nevermind you already talked about predictable lol
I have a video of me playing strider/doom but it’s pretty bad.
Anyone want to host it? lol 
?
blah blah
Ho0v-man I edited it for you sorry for the butchered up English
Strider/Tron Boone is wicked I’m sorry but it works really well even if you don’t play Tron Boone
I think everyone should give it a try because Tron Boone is already a crazy good assist not to mention the glitch on her Projectile Assist.
Though it doesn’t chip or anything, once you get a hit in then throw out the assist; It is Crazy Damage.
Strider will never land a hit. Trust me. Its simple. You teleport to the other side, you block up. When he lands, block down. You shouldnt get crossed up, just block the other way strider will appear after he teleports, meaning (from full screen) back, (from mid screen) forward.
you make it sound so simple but it really isn’t
there’s more to strider’s game than just teleporting.
you ever notice in clockw0rk’s videos he jumps forward a lot too and waits till the other guy jumps then busts out all this junk
j. lk is your friend.
j. lk w/ tron boone projectile assist owns.
w/ orbs out you don’t really need to always mash jab unless you want to keep them down and locked. You can try some mix up above them just jump over them then double jump backwards w/ an assist coming out
Ever played MvC Strider? that shit is really easy to block against a weak mind game strider but … just like in both games you throw a few orbs fireballs w/o having them block then teleport to the other side
If they don’t block fast enough most likely they’ll be it eating the orb fireball you sent on the other side of them when you teleported
Of course, these tactics aren’t always going to work against all teams but it’s still good.
Hey, thanks MM.
I am, but soon will not be, having a hard time with this guy who uses Cable/cyke. He Fades back then calls Cyke’s aaa. It should be no problem once I learn how to seriously play with Doom.
yeah thats true, but in mvc1, his teleport doesnt throw blue stuff before he disappears. the blue stuff makes you block, and if strider teleports to the other side, even if ur blocking the right way, ur gonna block it, and then be in blockstun. BTW, cable/cyke is pretty godly with 3 meters+ against s/d. dont call doom in so much. dont throw birds or panthers, and dont do orbs. just do regular teleports and when ur near and cable cant use his assist, doom+orbs that shit
^^ Actually, chip damage is the same on every damage setting. Combo damage is all that changes. BTW, this thread is kinda :lame: .
bomb xx orbs is very over rated. Please do that shit vs any good cable and see whats up.
Tiger XX Orbs or Bird XX Orbs, you don’t really need much else.
Remember how great Drones, Teleport, Slash is on a running Cable (just try it)
Yeah, the bomb is overratedagainst Cable. And small bomb is underrated against mag, sent, etc, You can throw it out when you’re in trouble and it’ll give you a chance to set up your attack and put a hault to the momentum of your enemy in the match. The key to beat Cable is to just not get careless. YOu can get to him by double jumping, even. You just have to be patient. what comes from just waiting is priceless.
Once you get Cable to block something (assist, bird, etc) or super jump, then you can cal orbs and trap. You can teleport durring the match like when he’s shooting on the ground, jumps and shoots, or is throwing a grenade. Be careful though, some Cable’s bait out the teleport so they can jump lp, hpxxAHVB you.
You just have to respect every top tier’s unique ability durring the match and you’re good to go.
SNAKE
Knowing the match ups is more important when running s/d more so than any other team.
great thread MM and thnx again parry person for the help.
