So Im guessing this is a question you guys get alot, but i have problems choosing a main character too use in UMVC3. Yeah I know it sounds silly, but I like to choose one character too focus on! 
So a bit of backstory, well there basically is none since the only fighting game i was really into was Blazblue CS and then I played Tsubaki and Lambda.
So I am looking to play something along those lines, like Lambda or Tsubaki? does anyone have some suggestions?
I suppose that works. Like the guy prior to me said, it works ok in either configuration. The majority of players here would agree though that firebrand works best on point, but I also love to see point felicias. Really, Iād just play them a bit in both configs and see what works for you.
Is ryu a good anchor?
As a Spencer main, whenever I put Spencer first I need assists to get in as well as extend my combos. Extending combos ā¦ i would use: Haggar, ammy, wesker, doom, vergil, dante. To get in ā¦ I would probably use characters from the same list. What Iām trying to say is, if youāre putting Spencer first, you need better assists. Whirlwind is great, it pins them down, but what I donāt like is Dormmamu on anchor with puri, which is limited in range and just ass overall in aiding any team.
What do you guys think about using Haggar and Thor on the same team? I know theyāre both big, slow point characters, but I really like them both. Is there any hidden synergy? I was thinking Mighty Spark would help Haggar get in fairly well. Any suggestions for an anchor character? I played Viper in Vanilla, and have been trying to fit her into a team now for a while; you think she would work?
If I use storm as my second, should I use captain america or dead pool as a point?
Is that your team: Cap, Deadpool and Storm? Problem is, both Cap and Deadpool shine more as a point character. Your choices are pretty bad in both situations. The irony being that storm is probably a better anchor then them bothā¦and sheās an average anchor.
No, mostly shines at point. He can use meter well, but he canāt get in too easily on his own. I would say that there might be denjin mode tech discovered that could make him a beast as anchor.
Mighty spark is a pretty good counter-projectile, not that great as a cover assist because of a long start-up. Problem with two slow characters is that youāll struggle against zoningā¦a lot. Mighty Punish DHC into combo is one of the best synergies for this duo. Thing with Viper (and Haggar/Thor) is that they all function best on point with assists.
Guys, what do you think would team with Iron Fist the best? I want him to be Iron Fist / xx / xx
I was thinking about Akuma, Frank west or Nova, it doesnt matter which characters will be there, i just want Iron Fist.
So can you give me any advice who to add to my team and how to play it right?
Anchor Ryu with meter looks like he would force a 1 v 1 with Shinkuu Hadou punishes for assist calls. Denjin off of a cancelled hadouken, then dashing after it is the only idea I have for it helping him get inside (that, a really low TK L Hadou -> dash and a low TK H Tatsu). Not being able to combo off of grabs outside of Shinkuu Hadouken hurts though.
Yeah, Iāve mostly ruled out Viper by now. I realized that Haggar and Thor both really need a beam or lockdown assist to help them get in, so Iāve been looking at those. Iām considering Dante or Amaterasu right now; how are they as anchors? Would Danteās Weasel Shot assist fill this role well?
No, it was gonna be one or the other. (dead pool or cap.) I havent decided on an anchor yet.
I need honest feedback (no trolling, no spam and no flamming please) on a good partner to go with Wesker (B)/ ??? / Nova (B)
I had doom (plasma) in the middle and phoenix (tk shot) at the end for the following reset, which worked quite well: L M H S sjc M M H S (A1) {OTG Gun} (A1 Hit) S sjc M M H S (A2) jump (A2 hits = no air throw or A2 misses = air throw) and then move on from there. However, I cannot play Doom or Phoenix efficiently at all. It was a wesker based team where I wasnāt able to fully take advantage of my options among wesker and doom due to me having to save meter.
Now, moving on to the current team. I am comfortable with Wesker and Nova. Nova is a great anchor with pretty reliable set ups and no ABSOLUTE need for assists. Wesker is good anywhere but I feel being a point character is best allowing for better resets/mix ups/meter gain/etc. So, I am looking for everyoneās input on a middle character that allows for good team synergy, a reliable reset option similar to the one above, a good assist, and good all around character.
I am open to any suggestions, and would move my team order/assists if necessary. All feedback is greatly appreciated, and again just constructive feedback if possible. I am aware that a ton of people hate wesker, and I canāt do much about that so letās all just push that aside for the time being please. If anyone has a preference to messaging me their ideas go for it. I will check this thread and messages frequently so it makes no difference either way.
Howās Wesker/Trish/Dorm?
Alright, Iām trying to find a good third character to round my current picks of Vergil+Dormammu. I enjoy the synergy with Vergil and Dormās Dark Hole assist, which is good for covering unsafe specials, works well with Vergilās judgement cut, among other things. What Iām looking for is an solid anchor or solid user that has either an assist that offers mix-up potential to aid Vergilās teleport game or combo extension for more damage. And yes, I know Weskerās OTG fits the latter quite well, but Iād rather not use him. Thanks in advance.
Dante is always a good pair for vergil when you use the weasel shot assist. Frank west with shopping cart is another good one for teleport mix-ups with vergil.

So after a few days in training mode after getting the game, Iāve decided on my team being Thor(Spark)/Frank(Cart)/Dorm(Hole). However, Thorās generally slow speed on anything but a predictable tri-dash is leaving me hanging. I always just end up using him to TAC into Frank for level 3, then heās just a drag to the team. Anyone have someone else thatād be a good point for the other 2, or tips for using Thor in this team?
Trenchcoat trio of Wesker, Dante and Vergil all work well with Frank and Drom due to teleport set-ups with Frank and multihit combos for easy level ups.
Hello, Iāve been playing UMvC3 for a while and my current teams looks like this:
Ghost Rider (EAT CHAIN!), Dormammu (Purification, I love this assist <3), Wesker (havenāt picked, I just want him out).
So what kind of team should I be working on and what assists should I use? Iād like to switch Wesker and perhaps Dormammu if necessary. But not Ghost Rider, just learned couple of combos. 
I was thinking of Taskmaster or Hawkeye, but I would also love to learn use Dante. But, if necessary, I can (try) to learn characters you suggest. Thanks in advance.
I really want to run team dmc and they all have good synergy with each other. But i have a problem of deciding the order. Right now I am using dante as anchor but feel that he does not do well by himself even in xf3. Whats the best order for the dmc team?
