I’m not very good at the game but to the guy using Nemesis Sent i use that team with doom plasma beam as anchor.
Yeah that team works pretty well, though I think Sentinel is the better anchor, he’s infamous for those level 3 XF comebacks.
I think getting High-Low unblockable setups is better for using Wesker than to extend his combos since Nemesis combos already do so much damage and assist scaling would ruin it. Does Wesker benefit from Nemesis assist though? Definitely he does from Hawkeye’s but perhaps you should use Rocket Launcher assist to you know clutter the screen as Wesker teleports around.
Honestly Nemesis does benefit from combo extension from Wesker IF you drop a few moves (like Launcher Slam) in your combo. It’s a good safety net to have if you’re like me and have a bad habit of just doing a magic series to make up damage lost. As for Wesker, Nemesis allows him combo extension and I’ve heard people say Launcher Slam assist can function just like Haggar’s lariat for resets and such from Vanilla. I really like the synergy of the two to be honest and they’re two of my favourite characters outside of the game so that makes it even better. It just sucks Jill is so hard to use and I don’t like Chris, but alas.
My Current Sucess Nemesis team so far is Phoenix Wright missle assist, Iron Fist Rising Fang assist and Nemesis RL Slam
Interesting team you got there. Good assists, but Phoenix wright on second? I think if you put Phoenix Wright on your team, the team should really be dedicated to helping him get evidence, and he should be on point.
Has anyone tried pairing Nem with GR? I’m really interested in using both chars and wouldn’t want to drop one in favor for the other
My personal favorite team that I’ll probably take a ride forever with in UMVC3 ; 1. Nemesis 2. Trish 3. Strider. I like to call this team Wesker Must Die, when I discover more anti-wesker technology I’ll probably change the name to something else although I dont think there is anything else Wesker has problems with except strong keep away, pekaboos, dive kicks and striders vajra assist.
They aren’t really weaknesses, just something I’ve heard Wesker has trouble with, I truly believe in this game you either have to play Wesker or build your team to play against him, most likely the latter.
Yeah Your right should I take Phoenix Wright out and replace with Hawkeye? cause his super scatter shot is a good DHC after nemesis rocket launcher OTG hyper
G.Rider was my original second slot for Ultimate, but turns out his assists aren’t the greatest. Heartless Spire and Hellfire are too slow or awkward to allow for a combo from OTG or they scale it pretty badly. Chain of Rebuttal is his best one since its fast and instant wall bounce, but it doesn’t really help Nemesis any more than any other characters, its like a random assist. Ghost Rider is also pretty weak when he’s not on point, he has no way of getting in since his entire game is chipping you and zoning you to death so if he ends up anchor, I think he’s one of the worst anchors in the game. he’s supposed to be a point character really.
It is a good DHC and that’s a good choice for replacement. Though experemint with what you like I made a list above with select assists for Nemesis, check it out.
I think practically everyone has trouble against strider vajra
I’m currently rolling Nems (Clothes line) / Nova (Centurion Rush) / Hawkeye (Triple Shot)
Bout to try a new nemmy team tonight though
Nems (RL Slam) / Rocket Raccoon (Pendulum) or Wesker (Gunshot) / Strider (Vajria)
Don’t need an OTG assist when 2/3 characters already can do it in there combos, & the other one has grab resets instead.
My day 1 team I’m still rocking is Nemesis (Launcher Slam), Iron Fist (Rising Fang), Wesker (Samurai Edge). I picked this team based on who I like the most but omg how happy I am at how this works. I’m typically a player that likes to rush your shit, but I’ve found that this team is one to play extremely lame with. Mid to full screen call in Iron Fist assist and mix in TK rockets, Deadly Reach to keep your ass at bay. And this is the perfect DHC; if I do a basic combo ending in his rocket hyper for like 500-700k damage I dhc into either Iron Fist hyper, depending on if I used a wall bounce or not. Near the corner I like to go for a pressure situation. Deadly Reach and Iron Fist assist. If you get hit, you get wall bounced, I follow up with M launcher slam into a full combo. I can end it with a hyper or I can otg with Wesker and reset you.
Off of a jump in H, if I’m not going to be able to kill you, I’ll do cr.:l:, cr., cr.:h:, :dp:
, cr.
, cr.:h:, :qcf::l:, dash cr.
:dp::l: then I call in Rising Fang and simultaneously do a
or :h: command grab depending on where it seems you’re going. Or instead of the :dp::l: at the end, :s: j.
, j.
, j.:h:, j.:s:, Samurai Edge assist, st.
aka dat King Leonidas, and do the same command grab reset. These could end in just blocking and letting Iron Fist kick you, or more Deadly Reach.
nem/hulk/sent nem/strange/sent
nem/sent is fun
Going to try Nem/Sent/Strider
I have a good feelin’ about this one.
I tried Nemmy/Wright with Nemmy first, and it works wonders. Biohazard Assault DHC into Maya Super gives Phoenix time to search for evidence (~3 tries, 4 if you’re really fast or the super nets you the kill)
Worked so good I’m gonna settle on Nemmy(Clothesline Rocket)/PhoenixWright(Press the Witness)/Wesker(SamuraiEdge) as my main team. Now I just need to get better with Nemmy and Wesker.
Been looking at some more combinations of Nemesis teams, and the Nemesis/Hulk/Sentinel looks like something I’d like to try out. I used Hulk and Sentinel in vanilla, so it’s not like I’m flying blind.
I do have one question though: Which Hulk assist would you use? I’m guessing Gamma Wave for the low hit, but you guys seem to have the experience with that team, not me.
hulk aa all the way imo. plus nemesis can go for command grab mixups off of hulk aa hit.
What is the touch of death combo, you speak off. Iam new to the game and i’am learning Nem, as my main.
well i basically just do his most damaging bnb (there might be one that does more but this does the job 760000) which is CR. LMH, L CLOCKET, DASH ST MH, M ROCKET SLAM, S, SJ, AIR MMHS, DASH FOWARD (call taskmaster assist if in corner) ROCKET SUPER, then taskmaster super and if your not satisfied do trish super…with task it does at least 900,000 plus, and trish makes it go further if you need it
I’ve been using Nemesis/Hulk/Arthur and Nem/Chris/Arthur for a while now.
Basic plan is Nem plays keepaway with j.d/f+H and TK rockets + Arthur Daggers/Hulk rocks/Chris Gunfire and does solid damage inside. Chris plays keepaway and builds meter for Arthur, who can also keepaway and chip hard with lv3XF and gold armor.
Thinking about finding a new anchor instead of Arthur. The low vitality is sort of an issue as well as him not being able to deal with pressure very well without a keepoff assist. I know Strider is solid with Nem but I’m not really feeling the character. Was thinking about the following characters:
Dormammu
Doom
Cap
Frank
Firebrand
Thoughts on any of those as anchors for Nem/Hulk or Nem/Chris?
can’t go wrong with doom or dorm as anchor :b
been using nem/strange/sent offline. nemesis throw xx dhc to strange xfc loop is fun!
