That was my second team after Ultimate came out, i gave up on it because my Sentinel was terrible and i didn’t see that changing, love to see some match or tech vids though.
I’m working on some great tech for the team. I’ll be sure to tell you when its up. Already found some silliness with Sentinel and Frank (most people think its not a good pairing) as well as some incoming mixups with Nova and Frank: Jump and call Nova, MMS, cH then launch and do whatever.
frank is solid backed by drones that’s for sure. he has some really tricky mixups using drones along with his roll once he’s leveled up to 3 or higher. you can cancel franks roll into his fake kick (dp + l) if done right frank will like glitch in the center of their character and stay in front of them instead of crossing up. if you find any super reliable ways to get a second pic with drones let me know, never found anything that was consistent.

Is there anything similar to Spencer’s grapple assist for Nova to put characters in a crumple state? I’ve been playing Nova, Doom, and Strider. It is nice pairing but putting Spencer for the grapple is just godlike. Then the doctor can just do his stuff, not just Strange, but of course, Foooootdiveeee!!!
I been tryna do the same thing (find new ways to get the crumple) but the only other assist that can do anything similar is Iron Fist’s assist but the opponent has to be standing so basically you would have to call him as soon as you get a touch.
Thanks, darn, guess that means I should learn Spencer, but what the heck I can learn to like! I’ll continue in the lab. On a side note, I also thought I could OTG with wesker after but haven’t tested it yet, and don’t know how it affects the crumple state mechanic.
They have to be standing to get a crumple, that’s it. She-Hulk’s b is the only other one that causes a crumple iirc.
I kind of want to see a team consisting of Spencer b She Hulk b Iron Fist a. Team crumple.
I currently want to play Nova/Taskmaster/Akuma, but is Akuma the best character as anchor for this team?
He’s fine enough, tatsu is decent for both Nova and Task. Your THCs in particularly should completely murder any assist call which is cool. Ammy would also work wonders in that spot instead of akuma
From what I understand Akuma is supposed to be one of Task’s best assists. I can’t see how it wouldn’t be amazing for Nova, either.
I’ll agree with Blue Lightning on the Ammy comment though, Team Moons is pretty spectacular.
Any kind of synergy anyone could think of with Nova/Task/Dorm? I really like Dorm as a character because right now I’m running Nova/Task/Spencer. Tried to think of stuff in the lab with Nova with Dorm and Task with dorm but it’s kind of a no go for me.
off the top of my head, I know Dark Hole gives Taskmaster a lil combo extension and Nova gives Task extension too. Dark hole gives Nova a little extra damage off any BnB ending with j.S and then picking up with f.H…call Dorm while u do it and u get to do M rush and then H rush. I personally think you should run Dorm Nova Task with Dorm having Liberation as the assist…charge spells, BnB and DHC to Nova to have the spells saved…Nova gets to use spells with his combos, DHC to Dorm and repeat. Dorm will have Task arrows for entry/teleport mixups and Nova for unblockables or maybe teleport mixups for free groudbounces into BnB combos. Dorm dies, you have Nova Task and I think by now a lot of people have seen what Nova Task can do.
Dark Hole is really good for Task, not just for extension, but to make Charging Star completely safe. Check some videos of Chris G’s Task/Deadpool/Dorm team and see.
I think the best order for that team is either Nova/Task/Dorm or Nova/Dorm/Task. Good DHC and assist synergy either way.
Dormammu was the other character I considered instead of Akuma. Might go and try that again. I just feel that Dormammu needs his own assists to be at his best.
Not related to Nova, but there is a series of videos from Vanilla Marvel on the Taskmaster Dormammu unblockable.

YOOOO LMAO that’s not even fair ! lmfaooo
Oh wow, that’s a nasty unblockable. I like nova on point and having dorm as my anchor, it just seems in corner I can’t really extend off of dark hole assist because its too far off screen
That shouldnt be the case… ANY BnB ending with j.S without a ground bounce you can do f.H (delayed assist call) M rush and any finish you want
I haven’t tried it yet with Nova, but the problem with Dark Hole assist is if you’re right in the corner. In that case, Dark Hole appears off screen. I had the same problem when using Zero to OTG and relaunch. What I had to do was dash back to get the spacing right.
Like I said that shouldnt happen. ALL of my Nova combos are practiced in the corner. I even did what I’m talking about in a combo video.
