EAT CHAIN! -The Ghost Rider Combo/Strategy Thread

Any team with GR is not optimal. But isn’t missiles essentially the best neutral assist there is? GR/x/missiles is about as good as it’s gonna get.

Dunno if any enterprising individuals have already found this, but now I present before you: “The GhoStrider Special”
-End any combo with a :qcb: :l:
-Call Vajra, b.:h:
-Now we get into the reset:
-If Vajra hits, Ghost Rider doesn’t get too much out of it. However, you will probably have at least one bar, so you can just dash in xx b.:h:, snap
-If Vajra is blocked, you get a pretty dirty chance to mix up the opponent because the blockstun ends once they hit the ground
-If you want to play it safe, you can just fish for button mashing with :h::h:, cr.:h:, or j.:s:
-If you want to take risks, you can add another layer to the mix by dashing in, to change your options to cr.:l:, b.:h:OS, or a level 3 if you feel that the opponent is going to eat it

I feel that this is a step in the right direction for Ghost Rider’s tactics. He can’t output very much damage per combo, so he greatly benefits from resets to offset this issue. If anyone has Repulsar Blast on their team, you can play around with that too.

Sup, I posted a video a few days ago that shows a way to easily (and practically) get 2 Judgement Strikes (SRK H) in the same combo.

Here’s how (quality’s not the best though):

I just discovered this reset. I’m sure you guys already knew about it, but it feels great to figure things out by yourself :smiley:


Pretty sweet if you ask me. Small characters only.

When going for this in a match, you should probably call an assist to put them in blockstun as they recover. That way, asshole characters like Magneto and Nova can’t just air dash away.

Works with: Missiles, Mystic Ray, Daggers of Denak, Repulsar Blast, and Vajra. You could also combo into Spencer’s Slant Shot assist, then do the throw right after the hitstun ends.

Okay guys, I found an interesting extension with Haggar’s Lariat assist after a :qcb: :l: . After the cinematic, call the assist, dash backwards, then use Heartless Spire. So far I have something like:

:h: ,:h: ,:qcb::l: , call Haggar, dash back, b.:h:, :h:, :h:, :dp: :m:, dash in, :h:, :h:, :s:, super jump forward, j.:s:, land, :qcf::l:, :qcf::atk::atk:
*delay until the last possible moment
Does about 630k, meter neutral. Can anyone optimize this a bit for me? I’m so damned close to breaking 700k with one assist!


Not sure if the tac combo would would with huge scaling. Trish is the best I could do.

:h:,:h:,:qcb::h:, wave dash 2 times, call EM Disruptor or Hawkeye assist, b.:h:, assist hits,:h:,:h:,:dp::m:, dash in…
-midscreen: :h::h:, :qcb::l:, combo ender*
-corner: :s:, super jump forward, :m::s:, land, combo ender*
*Typical GR combo enders after a knockdown: :dp::atk::atk: or :qcf::l:,:qcf::atk::atk:

With the quarter circle super ender, does about 650k. If you guys have any tricks to optimize this past 700k without another assist or burning another bar, please tell me so I can help push GR to doing solid damage.

EDIT: Not only does this work after a :qcb::h:, but it also works after a grounded back throw midscreen! I’ve got it to work with Plasma Beam, Unibeam, Hawkeye assist, and Magneto’s Beam. You can also use Shopping Cart, but it is a bit spacing and timing sensitive. For the faster assists (Hawkeye and Magneto), you call the assist immediately before you b.:h:, but with slower assists like Doom or Iron Man, you can call them either before you wavedash or during the first dash.

Are there any GR combos ending with the bike super that do 50 or more hits? I think GR/Frank could be a thing, but I don’t have any really long combos with GR.

Made a quick combo video after seeing a ideas from a couple of GR combo videos. I’m not sure if this has already beed posted.

[~879,500] | 2 meters

j. :s: , :h:, :h: :dp: + :l: , :h:, :h: , :s: , sj. , :m: , :m: , :s: , :a1: , :b: + :h: , :hcb: + :h: , :a2: , :dp: + :atk::atk: , :l: , :dp: + :atk::atk: , :s:

If you DHC to your 2nd character then you will get over 1 million as shown.

what i do is after the bike press M then dhc into frank and call an assist (i use super skrulls tenderizer) and do 2 cameras. a standard length GR combo ending with that should be fine.

Ghost rider combo- 1 million damage, 1 meter gain, starts at 1 meter, dhc, and raw tag. My opinion, vajra sucks with ghost rider.

that was beautiful

Rule of thumb: dont make a team with 2 low tier characters. Even if they have “synergy” its not recommended.

Hey now, he actually works pretty well with Hsien. Though the anchor Thor is a bit questionable…

This team is just for fun. Thor’s not an anchor. I can do the same combo with multiple characters. Aside from the raw tag, I can do the same combo with: missiles, plasma beam, dark hole, unibeam centurion rush etc. One thing you should also know about my video, I didn’t even do an air combo. Isn’t even the strongest combo. It’s just for shitzngiggles.
