Aight, I got tired of my Nova/Spencer/Doom team. I feel dirty now because I was inducing so much salt with Spencer’s Zip Line, which is to say, friggen obnoxious. So I decided to change my team, and I chose…MAGNETO AND VIPER.
So you guys got any intel with them? I was able to find a corner combo with Viper and Nova assist, but does Magneto support Nova in anyway and vice versa? I’m really having fun with Magneto because he’s just got so much swag and an all around great character. Fast beam, great mobility, great combos, I’d say Magneto is just perfect all around. Typing all this good stuff about him makes me want him more on my Team now. Any tech out there with Nova and Magneto? >.<… I wanna name my team… Novagneto Swag. LMFAO.
First of all, “Novagneto?” Get that mess outta here. Bucketheads is a way better name. Or if we go all science-like, we got gravity and magnetism. Those are some fundamental forces right there.
Secondly, I recently put Magneto with Nova, and I’m liking it so far. The beam is fast, so that’s something. Haven’t really found much in the way of ground breaking synergy between them yet other than that though. Magneto helps out Nova pretty well. Nova’s Centurion Rush does some good with Magneto for unblockables. I like pairing it up with that cr. :h:. All I can say at this point is experiment on your own. Nova’s got a good TAC combo in the corner, and Magneto does as well, so there’s some potential there if you’re into that. I’m currently looking for a good way to get some high damaging DHCing between Nova Force and Magnetic Tempest myself.
LMFAO, Buckethead team APPROVED, and no, I had enough science homework this 3 day weekend >_>…
Yes, the beam is amazing at what it does, although it’s rarely giving me enough time for my Nova to do his tri-dash :l: which is… pretty essential in helping Nova get in. Maybe I’ll try some Tasky and Hawkeye for their semi lockdown assist. Most likely Task because his Theme just pumps me up way too much and not to mention his new alt will be going perfect with Nova.
The Centurion Rush assist plus Mag’s cr:h: is nice but it’s…somewhat hard to set up due to the angle of Nova’s assist…
I’ve been trying to figure out a decent nova team with the characters I like so far things have not felt right was wondering if you guys could help me here are the characters I like to use: Deadpool/Magneto/Hawkeye/CaptainAmercia/Nova. I also like Vergil and Zero but not as crazy about them as I am with the other 6. Any tips would be appreciated. TBH I really would like to have a nova/deadpool team combo that would work but it doesn’t seem to feel right.
Been using Nova/Doom/Sent, but not really feeling the synergy, unfortunately.
Considering switching out Nova for Zero or Strider or something at this point…or dropping Sent. Don’t like how the two interact, no matter the assists…
Advice/Comments please. Been messing with these two variations of the same team:
Nova (Centurion Rush)
Dr. Doom (Missiles)
Hawkeye (Greyhound)
Nova (Centurion Rush)
Dr. Doom (Plasma Beam)
Strider (Vajra)
Anything would be helpful… I am super indecisive and have been messing with different teams since day 1 of MvC3. It’s time to settle in and work my ass off with one team and get better than I currently am. Learn all the in’s and out’s and tricks of one team to put me in situation to make quick competent choices and not just mash out an anxiety ridden win. BTW I was never a MvC2 player so… well I’m new. Thank you in advance for all helpful replies and advice/comments!
hidden missiles or plasma beam? plasma beam makes it easier to get in, but hidden missiles extends combos lol I don’t know which one to pick for my assist
It works but it takes getting used to. But nova can definitely chase down the opponent after the log trap hits and he covers it well when he air dashes towards his opponent. I have learn rocket raccoon now and he will become a decimate part of my team.
After seeing how Kusoru used Frank and Rocket Raccon, I cant help but think Nova would make that duo incredible. If a single log trap hits and you got two bars, that’s instant level 4 Frank. I was using Nova plus two of the following - /Trish/Taskmaster /Felicia But I think Im gonna try that team out for a bit.
I finally did it. I finally figured out my Nova team. Nova/Storm/Kl’rt. Oh, it feels so nice. I’ve been lookin’ for a character to fill that second spot for a long time. Storm’s Whirlwind takes care of the horizontal coverage, and she fills my DHCing needs. Plus Nova and Kl’rt have been my go to duo from the start. I simply can’t play Nova without Kl’rt. Other than me lovin’ the duo from the comics, I really like what Stone Smite does for combo extensions. Anyway, I’m set. After I learn how to play Storm, I’ll be even more set.
I’m planning on running Nova (centurion rush) / Frank West (Shopping cart)/ Doom (plasma beam).The plan is to level up Frank with Nova and then set up unblockables using Nova’s assist or rush them down using Plasma beam.Am i missing something?
Unblockables aren’t that easy to set up as Frank’s only low hits are cr.H and dp.H. Other than that, sounds pretty alright. I run that exact team with the exception of Hawkeye as anchor and it’s been treating me better than any other team I’ve had since Vanilla came out.
Nova’s one of the best partners for Frank, there’s tons of synergy and he’s excellent for leveling him up (I’d say only Dante and Vergil are better for leveling/better characters, but I don’t like their synergy as much). The anchor, in my opinion, should really be based on 4 criterion: comeback potential, a good cover assist, options for leveling Frank, and Nova/Frank synergy. I personally find Rocket Raccon to be my anchor of choice presently; The assists are fantastic, there’s a lot of leveling options and I like the synergy. Comeback potential is his only weak point imo, but he can still do it.
Doom brings a lot to the table, but you really don’t have a way to level up Frank with him unless you get him in on point (which means either a raw tag or 2 meters to safely DHC him in). I personally don’t see what Hawkeye brings to a Frank team besides a cover assist; honestly I’d think for anchor you’d be better off with Arthur.
So I recently properly started playing this game (I played a bit in vanilla, but never really learned to play - I just thought it was really random compared to AE). So the team I want to start off using is Nova (centurion rush)/Frank west (shopping cart)/Someone. Nova and frank everyone says have really good synergy, and neither are particularly difficult to play (I can do all the basic fly/unfly stuff, and frank’s combos are easy). So I was wondering who a good anchor would be. I am newish to this game but not fighting games in general so I am not completely put off by difficult execution characters. I was considering magneto, hawkeye, taskmaster and amaterasu. Thanks
Either of those would work fine. I’d recommend Dante or Rocket Raccoon though since they can level Frank well as well. I play Nova/Frank/RR for my Frank Team.
IMO, he’s not terrible? But he’s not the best. The point is that, Nova with Log Trap assist is absolutely amazing. You can Cr.B, throw javelin, call log trap and wait. They’ll get hit by the log trap, then by the javelin, then you can repeat. It’s pretty effective against characters who like to zone you. RR is just a really difficult character to use. I’ve been switching between Spencer, Dante, Vergil, and Rocket Raccoon though. All have their advantages.
RR isn’t the best Anchor in terms of Dark Wesker style XF3 comebacks, but that’s not the only utility of an anchor. RR as an anchor can pretty much compliment any two characters you put him with. Log Trap goes with everything, his DHCs work really well with almost everything, and even if you can’t DHC to the Minigun super, you can DHC into the big trap super and raw tag back in.
RR anchor teams are the kind of teams you should be using XF level 1 or 2 with to gain a solid advantage, then use RR’s utility as an assist and DHC to maintain that advantage for the rest of the match.
