I am experimenting with Task/Dorm/Doom. Taskmaster will be using Horizontal Shot.
Would Plasma Beam be ok for Taskmaster or is Hidden Missiles the clear cut favorite for him?
Which assist should I use with Dorm with this team?
I use plasma beam or rocks for task. If you want to try to play keepaway, hidden is the choice, but for OTG corner stuff I’d say use one of the other 2. I use X-23/task/doom and rocks is the choice so I can DHC trick.
well like i said above I use hsien-ko for damage and her assist then i switch her out so it doesn’t matter who is second or third since I just hard tag them in anyway. I also know the dhc combo.
I’m having some success with Task (Vert) Haggar (lariat) Chris (gun).
My main problem is teleports and getting combos started.
For the most part being annoying with task masters H arrows is fun. People have a habit of dashing under superjumps.
Setting up chip damage after a knockdown is easy with ground H arrows, gunfire assist L arrows. That’s usually my deal until I get an opening, but seeing as how it’s keepaway I find myself tagging mid combo between task and Haggar, or hard tagging to Chris.
Likewise with Chris on point call task master, gunfire M, gunfire m works glorious chip.
The funny thing is, Haggar makes a better turtle. Plenty of health xf2 or three jump back pipe with assists where applicable, pipe lands, likely death combo.
Granted, my Chris is terrible. >_>
what DHC combo do you mean? just a regular DHC or is there some kind of combo?

this is the combo except instead of spencer i use akuma’s assist to relaunch him up then when i do taskmaster’s hyper i dhc to akuma’s beam then to hsien ko’s balls…yeah her balls.
My team of taskmaster y haggar a chris b needs a change. I’m not getting enough from chris. As previously stated chris’ gunfire doesn’t help haggar get in. Besides a chip setup for task that’s it. I was wondering if putting chris on point with landmine assis putting task 3rd.
Haggar’s my best. I’m getting there with task. Chris is my weaklink.
Replace Chris with Doom Plasma Beam or just sellout and put Wesker there.
Should probably have Chris on point, Task, then haggar.
Every team needs doom
On the recommendation from you or one of the other like, 3 players that rock this team, I use Chris/Haggar/Task. Mostly so that I’d be forced to use Chris and get good with him, and I’d rather Task at the end instead of Haggar because Task at the end vs. a zoning team is better than Haggar vs. a zoning team.
I really like Chris but I feel like he’s either blowing people up or getting blown up. There’s really no median there. I either have to buckle down and gain some new technology, or just replace him.
That was what I was thinking. basically force myself to gitgud with Chris or else. as for doom. yeah I was thinking of that. but he’s on my other team of Shulk Spencer Doom
lol’d hard
Haggar should never be last on a team. As much as I love Haggar’s lariat I don’t spam it that much.
Damn right.
Its criminal how well Doom works with everyone.
I’m working on my Taskmaster/Wesker point team and I need a good character in that second slot. Basically, depending on the match up, I will either run Taskmaster on point with Wesker as anchor or Wesker on point with Taskmaster as anchor. But unless my opponents first character really counters Taskmaster, I plan on putting Taskmaster up front. Either way though, whatever character is in that second slot has to work well with both of them. I’ve come up with a list of potential second characters. My criteria is that I need a character that :
- Has a super that can punish assists well from full screen
- Has an assist that can help Taskmaster put on pressure as well as keep people away (setting up Task’s unblockable is a plus)
- Has an assist that can help Wesker extend his combos including comboing into his level 3
So with those things in mind, I think that Akuma, Dormammu and Dante can do everything on the list. My B list consist of Ammy, Doom, Trish, and Ryu. These characters do most of what I need, but lack slightly in 1 area.
What do you guys think? Any suggestions or recommendations? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I was messing around in practice mode and I shortened the list down to Akuma, Ryu, Dante and Dormammu. Who will I choose?
IMHO, Dante, no question.
- Task arrows (any forward version) > Dante guns kills even tron if the point character blocks it, and if point character doesnt XFC teleport kills them both
- Jam session assist accomplishes all needs and doubles as a vicious anti air, and TRIPLES as a decent cross counter that, with meter, is capable of confirming into full combo or XFC kill combo if you catch 2 or their last character.
- Jam session continues Wesker’s combo.
And then on top of that;
- Taskmaster full combo > downward arrows > Devil trigger DHC > Full ender > as much meter as necessary to kill is a very strong combo; usually only needs 2 bar to kill, but is capable of killing anyone with 3-5 bar.
The only problem with your team is that very strong rushdown characters like she hulk and wolverine will probably maul you at high level. But maybe not.
^You can probably DHC glitch with that team aswell.
hey guys quick question im running 2 teams now
team 1 Tron/task/sent
team 2 mag/task/chun
i want a team that can transition from zoning to rushdown and vice versa easily if need be and can rushdown and zone equally well too, im just learning mags and chun but i kno the general gameplay for tron and sent who should i run…im starting to lean more to team 2 but i just dont kno mags and chun yet so im gettin opened up pretty badly
You can, and it’s one of the strongest types, as you gain meter for the subsequent combo. And you can use two different methods;
Crazy dance > link Devil Trigger > DHC Counter > 2A
Hook > link Devil Trigger > DHC Counter > 2A
Yea I was running Task, Dorm, Wesker yesterday and I did indeed get mailed by a Wolverine and a Zero. I don’t see how Dante would fair any better in that middle spot. I was thinking maybe I should go Akuma in there. He can punish assists full screen, he can help Wesker extend his combos, he can help Task rush down, keep away and stop rush down characters with Tatsu assist. Also, Task’s full combo then dhc to Akuma does 800k. Only thing is Akuma’s low health is worrisome. I know Dante is an overall better character, but I think Akuma might fit better for this team. What you think?
