How to Stop Worrying and Love the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth - The Ultimate Doctor Strange Thread

  1. Put on a pair of headphones.
  2. Listen to Strange’s theme over and over again.
  3. Go to training mode and practice the IP loop over and over again while listening to the theme.
  4. Success.

I can do it with my eyes closed nowadays. Though, online I still at times drop it; usually when I’m nervous. It’s really not that hard once you get it down.

you know, when i was trying the FoF loop, i would do st. :s:, jump, I.P., FoF, mash the next I.P., but it would never ever connect.

Can someone do a translation for me? I faced this one guy in a player match and beat him 10-0 with my Strange/Doom/Hawkeye team, pretty badly actually; no taunting, teabagging, wavedashing,etc I don’t do that nonsense. You could tell he was a new player, as I was destroying his entire team with just Strange for the most part. Zoning, throws, IP loop, etc.

Anyways, he sent me this message after. He was from Mexico, so I’m assuming this is spanish. Google translate isn’t helping tonight, and I’m clueless.

Message was: “Paresias puto siempre iyendo para atras jajajajaja al fin novato.”

Any help? I’m pretty sure tortonon speaks spanish. :S

i took spanish 1 and 2 in high skewl. i forgot most of it, but i think he called you a b*tch lol.

I use to get that from Mexican player, you must be playing on PSN.

What are the property of FOF

According to google translate, from what I can tell he said; You always take it up the back, hahahaha rookie.

idk what the rules on here, but its more vulgar than that.

Had a spanish speaking friend of mine help me.

I think it means: “Like bitch always going for back hahahaha at end noob”

Whatever that means. Oh well, I guess Strange does generate some salt.

fixed

We actually speak portuguese in Brazil… but anyways, I can also speak spanish.

It was a hatemail, saying that you “looked like an SoB always going backwards lol F-you noob”

All versions: Ignores hitstun deterioration.

lvl 0 (green): cancels beam projectiles, slow enough that Strange can fire one and follow behind it like Guile’s Sonic Boom
lvl 1 (yellow): faster, more damage, most reliable for quick teleport mixups since it’s at just the right speed
lvl 2 (red): gains soft knockdown property on airborne opponents
lvl 3 (purple beam): soft knockdown property on airborne opponents, causes crumple state on grounded opponents, nearly instant

Projectile durability also increases with level (max of 10 low durability points for lvl 3).

I also just want to say thanks to all the newer Strange players posting in here. For a time, it was literally just me, tortonon, and serpentaurus just posting in here, so with you guys, the Strange forums feels a lot more active. Keep it up. :tup:

lol lots of people forget that BR is Portuguese not Spanish.

lol, it should traduce something like: “What a b**** always going backward jajajajaja noob”, and the “paresias” is actually “parecías”, people with terrible ortography are common online :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh, my bad man. Didn’t know where you lived, just saw a few of your youtube videos and it looked like spanish to me at first glance in the descriptions. Thanks for the translation though :D.

Anyone know if unbreakable TACs are completely removed in this game? I think Strange might have one if you have EoA at jump height or something.

quick question: is it possible to fof loop when you get point character and assist? (i dont think ive ever tried this myself)

I kinda think you can, Bronson, I remember doing my full bnb on happy birthdays and getting to 5 meters instantly. But I think they have to be pretty much in the same place, since the flame is not multi-hitting. Not really sure. Palm-loops for sure work. Flame is a maybe.

and what Mazio said is really true: it’s really cool to have a lot of people on the Strange boards!

And thats because of you 3-5 guys who stuck with him no matter how awkward he played. The well organized threads, posts and videos made me pick him up again and helped me learn the FoF loop in only one day (not 100% yet but hitting it like 70% is great for a few days).

That aside, Strange backed by Shuma is great for the neutral game. Mystic Ray gives him full screen nearly unavoidable teleport mixups of which he can transition directly into his jump loops and FoF loops. It´s to bad they don´t DHC well (they don´t DHC at all…), but it´s a good tradeoff for that awesome assist in my opinion. I´m not sure if there´s another Strange/Shuma player in here as these two characters are already rare as hell in general, but if there is one I really advise you to try this order. You gotta make sure your combos deal enough damage though.

I use Shuma backed by strange. They can DHC, bolts are godlike for shuma to get in, air tremble is sick.

You mean after of a TAC midscreen to Strange, teleport M, EOA, Impact Palm, s.S, superjump, j.Impact Palm, TAC again. I dont think its unbreakable…

Yeah, thats probably a better order for DHCing. I play Strange/Shuma/Doom and use missiles over bolts, mainly because I can use Shuma´s assist for the strange neutral game and missiles for going into the FoF loop. Gotta make sure my Strange combos work because of the non-existant DHC option though.

Still cool to see another Shuma/Strange lover around :slight_smile:
