Funny you should mention him cause i’ve been planning on pairing chris with dante actually. Still not sure whether or not to use dante as my AA assist or pick a 3rd character though, guess ill post in the team building thread and see what they think.
Whoa, bro. Nice write up. Can I add your blurb about Dante’s playstyle to the first post (General strategies)? I think it’s a good note for people.
Does DT (Devil Trigger) give him a bonus in offense and/or defense? I’ve seen the red meter gain on point myself and the use of some of the DT accessible moves. However, I’ve heard rumors of this, but not sure if it’s been verified that he does receive a bonus.
Offensive boost and health regeneration comes from Devil Trigger.
Edit: Jocelot, I’m using this bastard. Beating DMC3 again and watching the gamespot tourney convinced me to give this guy another shot even though he felt weird when I used him.
Thanks! I’ve been curious about this after watching the Gamespot tourney myself.
I hope Team Devil Hunter works as well as I hope.
Thanks man!
Anyone know what the inputs were for the combo that Chris Arizbe kept using with Dante in his match with Tom Canon at the Gamespot tourny?

Ask him yourself
Luvcheez is fuckin ill. I’m sure it’ll be easy to seperate the beast Dante’s from the average.
From what it looks like, it’s something like this:
:d::l: , 
, :h:, :f::h:, mash :h:, :s:, mash :h:, mash :s:, superjump, :dp::l:, :qcf: :atk: :atk:
Add reverb shock into fireworks and you can extend it:
:d::l: , , :h:, :f::h:, mash :h:, :s:, mash :h:, mash :s:, superjump, :dp::l:, :qcf::l:, mash :h:, :qcf: :atk::atk:
Ah, thank you. And sorry, I would have asked him I didn’t know his SRK handle though.
Luvcheez is definitely putting style out for us. Nice gameplay man.
It’ll be interesting to see how Dante influences character design going forward. I think while his style isn’t innovative, his movelist and how it’s structured is very interesting.
I for one can’t wait to see Dante player’s using Dante a year from now. Gonna be Smokin’ Sick Style going on!
Pshh, Dante=Style.
Gonna find every possible use for his pistol mash-cancels and be the ‘Gun-Slinger’ style Dante player.
I wanna go with Sword Master/Trickster just to be flashy, yet effective. =D
Seems Sword Master is his default type (and his air throw is ‘Rebellious’ as well!). Lots of air dash and teleport will round out your plans. That should give you a straight forward Dante who can’t be trusted to attack head on. Kinda like Ragna the Bloodedge with more style.
I plan to run him mostly as a rushdown character, so that would benefit my team well.
Also, do the style change moves affect the properties of his moves or does it affect the moves he can do?
