I’ve seen people say that strider needs doom but is there any other characters that go well with strider?
yes but i think only because of two reasons the chipping and i think the back up.well while ur having strider coming upon the character then all his gonna do is chip.but if ur playing magneto then doom will really help out cuz he cant fully rush in because of the assist.well thats my opinion and also my team with strider is strider sent doom.

No you dont. But people in tournys like to be cheap as fuck and dont care how they win! Try strom w/project Sentinel w/ground
and Silver Samarui w/ground and BlackHEART w/AntiAir assist.
There’s a thread for this in the middle of the front page. :rolleyes:
These threads keep popping up. Doom is Strider’s best assist plain and simple. It’s not cheap. The S/D trap is the most technical approach to the game. Anyone calling it cheap just doesn’t get it. And any serious Strider player will play Doom. Doom is Strider’s main ticket to damage.
I play strider pretty seriously and I dont use doom cuz I dont kno how…
I use mag,stider,cyk.
I use cyk kind of like doom…anit air push back ,tele hp,run some strings,cyk again keep doin that but its hard sumtimes. but im actually pretty successful wih that team.
i play with my favorite characters
strider w/(i dont use strider to assist), jin w/anti-air, blackheart w/ ground
I use jin to back up strider and blackheart to back up jin and vice-versa
here’s a bit from my experience: i find that the whole oro thing can be done without doom but if it dont catch a hit about halfway through, it aint worth it. it is quite amusing to try 'n get oro to catch just for hits…i dunno though, its still more effective to use doom.
if you do wanna do strider w/o doom, you better focus on his close quarters agilty and speed (note: strider aint that fast in the wide scope)and try to do some ghetto cross-up stuff with people like tron, sent drones, storm proj., or juggs’ glitched body slpash; mainly something high damage w/ few hits
as long as he has tele hes usually fast enuff…to catch on oro or corner.
I dont think so. Strider is also ok with drones or tron but not many ppl try strider/sent or strider/tron teams seriously; myself included.
a team without Doom that can hold its own is Strider/IM/Tron in the beggining of the match a nice easy combo can be performed, its (at start of match) lk, (call tron Proj. assist), lk, activate orbs while the other guy is being hit by the rings, dash forward lp, lp, tag to IM, the orbs will hold the guy in place and when IM comes in he will hit the guy being held by the orbs and spin him out, from there do the IM infinate and its an easy quick K.O from the start. ^^ This is all one combo and alot of people are pretty stunned when there first person is knocked out in like 10 secs by a Strider :P.
