I really prefer Doom here for a great neutral assist and potential combo extensions. Ya know?
Plus I personally think Hawkeye is mediocre at best.
well yeah doom seems like a good fit the only problem is i really can’t do anything with doom midscreen…in the corner im fine but i can seem to pull off a midscreen doom combo to save my life lol
I hate playing as Doom. He’s boring, overrated, and just lame IMO. That assist though O_O
Yeah i have to agree, im not a big fan of doom but that hidden missiles and even the plasma beam assist are great.
Assists that slowly move across the screen (Drones, HM, Log Trap, Rapid Slash) are so godlike for Trish.
Double Jump + Flight mode makes them incredible (this works for all characters with this ability, but Trish’s speed and divekick make it more potent).
I know Cold Star, Jam Session, and Tatsu are all good for her, but I love the versatility of an assist that follows her flight mode.
^^^ It was always my least favorite color for Trish, and I’m not an R Mika fan, but finding out that was the obscure insipration made me love it. is anyone else pissed that Trish had to get a Dante and Virgil inspired alt, but neither of them got a Trish inspired alt? SEXISM.
Dante’s 2nd outfit is Trish (basically). Meh on Vergil. I don’t think he really needed a trish color swap when color 2 is close enough. I like Trish’s Vergil color swap (since almost all her other colors suck now that the Gloria color is the alt.).
What I don’t like is the random Halloween orange colors for Dante/Trish. Wasted spots.
I like that Trish because it looks like Silvia from Viewtiful Joe
On a serious note, I’ve been delving so hard into Trish teams.
IMHO, the best goal of a Trish team is to have a team that avoids bullshit better than it produces it. Trish does have a her share of bullshit to produce, but that isn’t her most admirable trait. Having an assist that really works against her weaknesses is so key to her game. You want something that can really fight against Vajra and Missiles. Trish’s air mobility already helps against this (which is why I am always so pissed when people in this thread think Vajra instantly beats Trish), but an assist really ends a lot of the threat. Missiles, Jam Session, and Tasks Up Arrows are three examples of assists that do this and compliment Trish’s gameplan. That’s what can make team composition so difficult though. It’s hard to have it all in a Trish team. If you want combo extension, unblockables, and an “anti-meta” approach then you need to search very hard. An OTG assist isn’t necessary, but it is pretty desirable. Wesker and C.Viper do give you both options (unblockables and combo extensions), but they can be demanding on the assist behind them.
Meh I’m just ranting on about nothingness really. I’m just really unhappy that I can’t find a team I think is perfect. Lately I’ve been bouncing between:
Any order of Viper/Trish/Dante, Trish/Task/Ammy, Trish/Wesker/Dr. Doom, and Team Jago.
On a side note, Wesker may not be able to deal with bullshit extremely well, but him and Trish are VERY good partners.
On a SECOND side note, I think RDK should be using Missiles with his team. That’s what I use. I know Plasma Beam is very good for Wesker, but in this meta game Missiles is just better. Wesker can protect them pretty well too with quick gunshots.
plasma beam in general is good because it shuts down most ground assists before they even start. Missiles is good though since it helps trish be more lame in the air. But considering his team is more of an unblockable type of team, beam is good enough. All he needs is one solid hit to go into the unblockable setup.
Now if RDK was going for lame, i’d be saying switch to missiles all the way.
EDIT: I’m a bit bored but lets break Trish up on her versatility. 4 different types of Trish players:
Lame/Turtle
Rushdown/combo heavy
Unblockable
Anchor
Basically 4 ways to play Trish, all well with the right assists. (or in the back with lvl3 XF for the Anchor position.)
Trish/Storm/Akuma. If your gonna run storm, I feel your either gonna have to run drones or tatsu to make her a full blown threat and since akuma is a better character than sentinel(to compliment the fact that storm is “meh”) ill go with tatsu. You lose unblockables, but you gain an assist that blows up every other assist in the game and can be used to counter call almost every other assist(I say almost simply because I can’t think of any of the top of my head). Hail storm should help increase trish’s less than stellar damage output and overall the only weakness I can see this team having is a lack of meter since neither trish nor storm build a bar with their Bnb’s.
It’ll be a lot more offensive than the average trish team, but who says thats a bad thing? Make all those vajra users realize its not a free win for them.
I try to incorporate all of those in, except Anchor.
It’s doable really. It’s actually doable with RDK’s team with Missiles. You can transition from keepaway to rushdown so fast with Missiles it’s ridiculous.
Trish/Task/Ammy does it too, but it’s a little more defensive that Wesker or someone.
Trish/Viper/Dante may be the BEST Trish team, but the Viper/Dante shell isn’t maximized at helping Viper get in. It’s not bad, but it’s match up dependent.
That’s what’s so great about Trish. She’s so versatile.
Sentinel may actually be better here than Tatsu because of how much Synergy Sent and Storm have with one another.
I’d take Missiles or Drones over Tatsu on this team, personally.
What do you think about Trish/Viper/Missiles instead of Trish/Viper/Dante? I have also been trying really hard to come up with the perfect Trish team. Sometimes I feel like building the team I want for Trish is as hard as building a Jill team because I feel like Trish needs a third assist sometimes.
It’s an okay team, but if I’m not mistaken, Hidden Missiles takes to long to land preventing you from getting an unblockable after Round Harvest. So you lose that facet of your game, but in return you get a beefy assist.
Well i have been playing in the lab and im still pretty much at the same spot i was before…i have tried the team of dante(crystal) trish(low voltage) doom(missiles). The team is cool, i like it because after the dante super i can do a round harvest set up and raw tag dante back in and i also have the missiles covering both dante and trish. What do you guys think about that team?
I played that team extensively for 2 or so months. It’s a great team, really. It doesn’t exactly give you all the options you want for Trish, but it covers a lot of bases for Dante. The DHC potential is amazing too. Check out FrankieG, he plays this team.
Here’s a video of mine with some DHC stuff with the team (ignore the later part of the video).

Yeah frankie g is where i got the team composition from…i played with him for a bit since we both live in chicago and know the same people…but now im actually leaning more towards a dorm(dark hole) doom(missiles) trish(low voltage) team…its a complete zoning team with a lil bit of rush down. I think trish can do well on anchor, i have won alot of matches with xf lvl 3 trish so i think it could possibly be a good team. What are your opinions on the dorm doom trish team?
I wouldn’t start Dorm on point. It isn’t his best spot. I’d run Trish/Dorm/Doom. You get a good start of the round character in Trish, you get great DHCs with Dorm, and you get combo and neutral extensions with Missiles.
How do you feel about dorm on anchor then? im not too comfortable playing doom on anchor just yet.
