Three months into the team. Need advice!
Most prominent thing I notice is that there are WAY too many Elastic Slams and Meteor Smashes.
One thing I saw is you would get the first hit and always go for TAC or a reset. If you are going to play this team you need to go for the unblockable loop against characters like Vergil. I don’t know if you are going for elastic slams cause you play this guy a lot but most people will punish those. Instead you should be using orbital grudge and fatal buster in neutral. The only time I go for elastic slam is a reset, incoming setup, or you can do L M cr.M then slam.
Just wanted to let you guys know if you use a hard tagging character (Frank, Strange, Shuma). This is a solid proof of concept for the characters that you cannot tag in and hit due to their size or hitbox (list on the video).
This video is early last month, but this is apology man just dinking around in training mode. I learned alot from the video so i thought it would just post it here. it should help alot of other newer firebrand players as well. its a bit long so be prepared for that lol

@39:30 vs CFD Champ Charles (Chris/Haggar/Spencer)
Reflecting on my matches, i should have killed both Spencers when i had a chance. I kind of feel like a team crumbles without him since most teams designate him as the damage engine. Also, is it just me or is the Bon Voyage incoming guard break setup on Super Skrull either differently timed/difficult or impossible? I feel like he comes in at a higher height/odd hitbox or i just have the odd habit to Bon Voyage way too late on him.
I was in Georgia this weekend and was in their 2v2 tournament with Sumbrwnkid, and we ended up winning. Sumbrwnkid did more work than me, I was pretty nervous and played sloppy at some areas. I need to just block more instead of always trying to move around, and I need to use my Xfactor more intelligently.And I need better incoming mix-ups.

I had a few sets recorded at Evo this year. So far I have just one uploaded from after Evo. I essentially gave away my wins where i lost, but it’s still good footage none the less. I was blessed to be able to play the man who gave my team damage, lol.

Hey guys, so I’ve been super busy lately and haven’t gotten to play much, and haven’t had anything recorded in a while. Anyway, I switched to Hitbox from Xbox 360 controller about two months ago. I’m still getting used to it, but I hope to be good with it by The Fall Classic. I still drop combos and confirms, and miss a lot of grab opportunities though. So not the best play, but I’ve got some new tricks and now implement wall cling fireballs and plink dashing pretty well now.
Anyway, a friend of mine came over and played and my house and recorded some stuff few days ago.

Tried to use my Firebrand/Doom/Amaterasu team some, but I also used Missiles in a set and Plasma Beam in a set to give my friend some match-up experience.
^Kresent i sent you a private message my dude -_-… On another note, does anyone know a firebrand corner combo that starts with either devil’s claw or Bon Voyage that builds a bar or almost a bar( it can be with assist: dorm Y and doom A)?
My Teams match from the stream. I lost here but i fealt like this is still some decent play. Like Kresent I Made the switch to hitbox a couple months ago so i dropped my snapback loop and it pretty much cost me the game. I’m the fat guy in the beginning that apparently looks like Wario(shoutouts to Psych0sh0t)
LOL Hush!
So I decided to optimize the happy birthday combo I made a while back, and since I was using a second controller to call assist, I could actually THC on my stick! Enjoy!
