I useually have the same storm match as the useual Strider/Doom until it comes to certain Storms . I get confused when storm runs away and stays at the top throwing upward typhoons . I can’t jump up, I can’t wait, I can’t activate orbs, and I can’t stay getting chiped . Anyone have helpful advice ?
I’m assuming you mean the vertical typhoon.
It has mad start up. When you see her getting ready to do it, wavedash right at her. You should clear the whole column, be either underneath her or on her opposite side, and she’ll be wide open in the air. Like when you see her hands go up, wavedash. That’s the only move that makes her do that animation so the moment you see it start burning rubber.
You’ll be able to activate orbs and bring her down from there since you don’t even have to worry about an assist being called.
Alright thanks 
I don’t think strider can sj +double jump to the top of the screen, where storm throws the typhoons down from. Do you use lp excalibur to get her down? That shit is so hard to aim and land, and when you get blocked or miss, strider can easily get killed.
yeah he can. its dangerous tryin to chase her up there tho cuz if she recovers from the tpyhoon as your are goin up there she might hit you with a lk, lk, LA, LS. I dont think its worth chasing a runaway storm unless u have orbs.
or you can chase storm down the easy lazy way by pressing the BH assist button
I chase Storm when I have orbs and then catch her with excalibur . It dosen’t seem to work against a storm that spends an entire match at the top of the screen throwing typhoons . I guess the wave dash tactic is the way .
I like your style :lol: :lol: :lol: I use the dash + commando assist button to cross em up and knock em out
Storm’s a nightmare when I have sent instead of capcom though. Seems like I only make 1/3 oroboros count, rest is spent with me swinging down here and storm moaning up there. I gotta try the full screen jump audio talked about.
ok, yesterday, I had a vision. and it was of Strider/Doom… im an avid and fairly decent Doom player, probably the best in my city, but i have never really thought about using strider, so yesterday, i tried it… and loved it. so for the last 24 hrs. ive been reading posts and watching match vids of Strider/Doom.
anyway, seing as how hes fairly new to me, i need some general help. u know, like what NOT to do EVER. WHO NOT to go up against with a not so good strider. oh, and whats the quickest way to build meter while the opponent is in the trap? ground magic series xx tiger? and how exactly do u do his guardbreak?
…sorry for all the scrub-ish questions, but any help will be appreciated…
How many of the high level players roll after strider’s slide kick?
Anyway, I think storm is the toughest matchup for strider, followed by Sentinal. But once you get the infinite down and do it once on sentinal, people will think twice about just stomping your ass down. The infinite, btw is jumping forward(on the way up) lk lk, at the peak of the jump, HP, wait 1/3 of a sec and then HK as he’s falling down.
move you should almost never use : excalibur (use only to move over the ahvb while in the air)
best way to build meter is to use lp jabs during oroboros since they don’t push you away from your opponent like a magic series would. General advice is to just make every oroboros count- don’t turn it on when your opponent can SJ out of it. I like playing defensively against magneto and just lure him in with the zoo and sent drones and turn oroboros on when he gets in close. Against cable, I just teleport a lot and gotta stay right in his face for obvious reasons; tend to teleport into sent drones when I’m playing gainst team scrub though :lol:
if you ever catch someone (storm) with orbs high up in the air immediately hit her with fp to cause flying screen effect, but shes still trap in orbs so her lifeless body is comin back down to earth to feast on :evil:
if you have specific questions about match ups then post them here, i cant give a general overview because there is WAYYYYYYYYYY too much shit to type . if youre having problems with a specific team/strategy i’ll try to help
ok… i got the infinite, but whats the best way to catch him in it?
and what do i do when i dont have meter? throw tigers at him? and i dont quite understand the usefulness of the bomb, i see it in alot of clockw0rks matches, but why?
and i cant seem to connect his double jump air combo
The rh Bomb is used primarily in Cable matches. Cables usually run away and zone the fuck out of you from across the screen. This is not such a big deal, because Strider can just activate orbs and teleport. The problem is Ouroboros is AHVB bait. Cable can hit him on reaction to you doing the super. The rh Bomb is safety. If Cable does that, the bomb will land on his head and save your life.
Heh, most trouble I have is against Storm/Sentinel/Commando …No one around here really uses it but when they do I get severly ruined . Clock told me the best thing I can do is get used to it and i’ll figure out a way .
I usually put Sentinel up first and end up getting battered by Commando if I get in .........Seems hopless .believe it or not storm sentinel commando is not that bad of a match up at all, i would actually go as far as to say its in striders favor. start sentinel. at the start of the match storm has priority over you so just let her do whatever she wants, usually jump +jab+sent whatever, be patient push block and get away. when you get space start the usual sent zoning with mouth lazers+doom as chip and bait. usually at the beginning i’ll want storm to try to hail my doom assist so she is without two meters for a while. in the air up close of course always block, from a small distance try to get into frying pan range since its the most consistant air to air attack you have vs storm. dont try to attack from under her youll eat short,short super. pretty much rely on your mouth lazers and frying pan in air to air and try not to waste any meter. once storm has two bars now you really have to be careful not to get hit because it could equal game over. when storm is getting low on life go into hsfXXouro, this is really tough for storm now because she has no safe counter out unlike team scrub . if she counters in sentinel while youre in orbs its a free infinite, if she counters in commando its more free hits, snap out etc. for strider vs sentinel just be patient and realize he has no answer for you up close, no counter outs nothing. thats why i feel strider teams have the advantage because counter outs save cable based teams in alot of situations. really just pick out your spots to start orbs against sent. dont try to teleport on him all the time you can eat mouthlazerXX hsfXX hail. be patient from afar cause once youre on him theres no mouth that could save sent except your own mess ups.
Damn alot of info there , THANKS!
Best way to connect into infinite is with oroboros. Once oroboros connects, jab till it’s 80% done, then wait 1 sec till like 90% of orbs is done, and begin the infinite with jumping toward lk lk
if you have sentinal, call him as you’re doing the infinite because his drones helps push sent to the corner, where the infinite will be a lot easier(as you’re doing it in mid-screen strider knocks sent back too far sometimes and the infinite breaks).
W/o orbs on, punch teleport and hp hk to start it.
When low on meter, call sent drones and throw a couple of birds, only while sent 's drones are still on the screen though, case birds and tigers are only 1 hit and sent will shrug it off and spit you anyway (spit does more damage to strider than cat/bird does to sent). After your last bird goes, teleport on sent and try the hp hk start to the infinite.
Double jump combo isn’t too usefull since you can’t get it to connect all the time and it only does like 5-10 more damage pts. It builds good meter though, but only works when launched from the ground; do magic series while stick is in neutral, wait just long enough so that the lk doesn’t come out as a mk, then double jump up or up+forward and magic+lp excalibur.
Im going to CTF next week and im going to try those tactics out .
THANKS GUYS !
In a team of strider/storm doom , who would you people prefer to start ? Storm can provide a good DHC whereas storm on point can build meter and hopefully kill a character. Not too sure on what order to put them in but with some of your inputs , it will probably help me choose a good order for me.
I would guess she would be used very simular to the way sentinel is used in so my so personally I would put strider first because of the DHC and storm holds up good on her own if strider gets K.O’ed . I would suggest putting her first agains’t more powerful opponents such as Sentinel .
