There really isn’t one outside of the actual game guide that was sold in stores. The umvc3 guide via the wiki has a lot of what you’re looking for so I don’t know what to tell you.

Put Captain America 1st on shield slash, Nova 2nd on Centerion Rush, Vergil 3rd rapid slash

The only problem is my Doom sucks. Bad. If it gets down to just Doom it’s pretty much over for me. I started a new account for the team and since I’ve been using the Morri/Doom shell I’ve averaged 50% win ratio. LOL. sucks, I know, but it’s better than what I was doing in Vanilla.

I pretty much use Doom only for HM. That is why I was looking for a good 2nd character that will benefit from HM and can still play a decent zoning game like morrigan. strider is nice because, while he isn’t the best at zoning, I can run away and teleport/keepaway until i get an opening. I like Dorm as well but he is no where as easy to play as it looks. Eventually I believe I’ll end up using Morri/Dorm/Doom.

Ya, I’ve done bullet hell with Vajra before. It’s decent but not as good. I originally tried it in an attempt to kick Doom off the team. If it wasn’t for HM I wouldn’t play him. But the assist it just too good. really like Morri/Doom shell, I’ve thrown pretty much everyone in the middle at this point. Even using Hulk as a meat shield with armored assist was pretty fun. I just spam the assist until he dies since that is all he was there for. Eventually I’ll settle on something until then I am switching between Strider and Dorm.

usually when I win I have all my characters left anyway. The problem is morrigan dying. I just need to get better and not let that happen.

Well for Doom, do you know how to Foot Dive Loop? it’s really good for gaining Meter

1605

Why not? Doctor Strange/Dormammu/Doom is a valid team. By the way, this combo is a ToD that can corner carry, plus it leaves you with positive meter; props to tortonon :tup:.

In-fact, I’d encourage anyone to give Doctor Strange a try; he is such a fun character to play.

1606

So here’s my team…Viewtiful Joe, Frank West, and Super Skrull. I really want to play Joe so I would appreciate feedback with him in mind.

1607

That team has some potential, though I’m curious which Skrull assist you’re using. Tenderizer can be nice for leveling Frank mid-combo, but Smite is much better for Joe. I can’t actually say a whole lot about Joe other than he’s pretty good, particularly at using assists to set himself up.

1608

How can Sentinel benefit from Vajra?

1609

Need help finding an Anchor. Currently running with : Tron (Gustuff Fire) | Dante (Jam Session) | ??? Don’t really know who to choose next. Doesn’t have to be an Anchor but a 3rd character in general. Was thinking of maybe running Frank West second for those awesome LV5 setups with Tron. Was also thinking of running Dormmamu anchor but not sure. Tried Spencer, but team isn’t to good for his vertical hook setups. Suggestions??

1610

That was actually a awesome video. I was just looking for another zoning-type character, but that was amazing! I am definitely keeping Strange as a option. Thanks for the video.

1611

I know the basic foot dive loop and some other bnbs, that’s not the problem. His movement his weird for me and I am poor at zoning, footsies and spacing with him. He is very different from other characters that I’ve ever played. I suck with him.

I tried out vergil in the middle today and that works pretty nicely. I think I;m gonna give in and use him for a while. I won matches playing him that I shouldn’t have. He is too cheap lol.

1612

I’ll admit I’m one of the people who said kosuro wouldn’t be able to repeat his FR achievement and due to the unfamiliarity of his characters no longer being As big a factor I just don’t see him being able to replicate many of his wins over numerous games against top players. I am NOT saying kosuro has no skill or discounting his playing ability. On the contrary I feel that without his skill, character unfamiliarity or not, he would never have made it to the grand finals let alone win FR. In my opinion it takes a huge amount of skill to play lower tier characters and be able to face and beat other top players using high tiers. However I think it’s foolish to assert that kosuro’s win had nothing to do with character unfamiliarity especially considering the problem opponents had getting around log trap. But if u think about it other assists, like HM for example, are probably just as hard to get around, however since that assist is commonly used players have a better idea of what tactics are necessary to get around it and punish it correctly. It’s simply a case of you can’t counter what u have no clue about. I think one of the strongest indications of this is in the grand finals of FR. During that match it’s obvious that PR Rog was beginning to adapt and try unorthodox ways to counter the assist. While he was unsuccessful you have to remember that leas than 10 games were played Which in the big scheme of things is relatively few to figure out and exploit a new tactic. I’m not saying that if they played again kosuro would be destroyed, simply think that with actual match, not theory, knowledge of the matchup most top players would have a much easier time dealing with his team and that small boost given to him by character unfamiliarity that enabled him to finish FIRST would no longer be an issue and therefore would mean a lower finish. Simply put, in umvc3 characters matter and better ones in general mean more wins when players of equal skill match up.

1613

Yeah, Vergil with his Rapid Slash haha, you usually will use Doom’s dashes mainly for movement.
I’d put Vergil on anchor though, him with X-Factor is excellent with Swords of Revealing Light (Spiral Swords).

1614

I love Dr Strange, but I just had to find a way I could use him effectively (which I’ve only done now since UMVC3’s release). His teleports are his best tool, so I pair him with Magneto’s Disruptor assist. Originally my issues with his normals and recovery made me think he was useless, but I’ve persevered lol

1615

Well I felt like tenderizer would be good to use right into a pizza cuttter

1616

Hey everyone, I’m having trouble picking a 3rd for my team. I run Hulk/Dormammu and want to keep that shell since they have a ton of synergy as already discussed. My third character is what I’m not sure about. Right now its between Shuma, Doc Strange and MODOK.

-I feel like all of MODOK’s assist’s are useful to hulk, and his THC last forever letting hulk combo.
-Shuma’s mystic ray assist is amazing for hulk and dorm, but is it worth it for a terrible character?
-Strange’s assists are all viable, but Bolts seems best. But I sacrifice an easy OTG that Shuma provides for Hulk.

What do you guys think? Thanks!

1617

What do you guys think of Spider-man(Web Ball)/Deadpool(Katana-Rama!)/Iron Man(Unibeam)? This is the team I’m currently running. :3

1618

I’m running the same team.

I’d say Shuma would need to be 2nd, idk if he can do it on anchor. Strange is probably a better anchor idk about Modok.

I think with Modok hulk would benefit from laser and balloon bomb assist. I think Dorm would benefit from laser and shield assist. With Strange Hulk would benefit most from bolts, maybe daggers cuz they track and can ground someone trying to escape. Dorm would benefit from all strange’s assists, bolts and eye for sure.

Shuma laser is beast, but the char isn’t very good I hear. I’m thinking he needs assists to be any good, probably not a good anchor.

If this team is for online purposes run what you want. If it’s a more serious team then add Wesker otg, skrull smite otg (scary good anchor and can help extend hulk and dorm combos), drones or hidden missiles to it. But if you don’t want to do that then I think Modok > Strange > Shuma

1620

Shuma can anchor. Xf3 is the only way him anchoring is viable but his optimal spot is second.
