This is my revisted many times tried and true team. I feel like Missiles and Triple Arrows give Spencer multiple avenues to get in and missiles is a great extended for more H grapples. Anyone have any experience with any if these combinations and have some input on mixups and tactics?
I’ve been using this team as my main team ever since I picked up this game again. It’s a great team, although it can be hard to protect missiles assist, but that’s why Hawkeye is there - a much quicker and easier to protect assist.
It’s not so difficult to play around with - rush 'em down, keep calling missiles or arrows and just go nuts. Missiles give you a lot of leeway since only ground/air grabs will be able to prevent missiles from hitting, and even then not all of the grabs are able to do that.
When you get a combo and missiles are out, Spencer has pretty good tools to prevent dropping the combo due to the missiles interrupting. Something that looks pretty flashy is to launch them and don’t follow - just let the missiles hit him. Then snatch the opponent out of the sky using an UVG. You’ll have to get used to the timing since the missiles need to be out before you start the combo. This can be done midscreen as well but sometimes you’ll have to dash, depending on the spacing.
If you’re in the corner, you have the oppurtunity to win the entire game easily. Missiles + corner pressure is just ridiculous. Also, 1 million dmg combo’s off one meter is always nice. On the DHC side, your Bionic Arms will always be safe (Photon Array) or lead into more damage (Sphere Flame). Because of that you can save your X-Factor for lvl 3 Hawkeye who is still pretty awesome. A little overshadowed lately, but still a pretty good anchor with X-Factor and meter.
Another trick - Spencer’s command grab can lead to huge damage in the corner by hard tagging in Doom.
Overall I feel this team is more lockdown oriented, rather than doing tricky mixups. Just be relentless in the rushdown and get them to the corner no matter what. From that point on, keep 'em there by using missiles, ziplines and the occasional arrows. You have to make them scared to push a button so you’ll have the space to use command grab or overhead with Spencer.
