You can DHC into Hulk’s Gamma Crush after a Fatal Claw anywhere on the screen, making Wolverine’s BnBs off st.:l: do 830 000 for 2 bars. Since his BnB builds a full bar on its own, you can do this whenever you have 1 stock.
Alright I think I’m dropping Phoenix for a couple of reasons. I’m thinking Wolverine (dunno) / Ironman (Unibeam) / Dr. Doom (Molecular Shield). These are like my 3 fav characters to mess around and combo with, which I think is totally worth something. Also, Ironman’s Proton Cannon is godlike at DHCing in basically any combo. Assists are obvious, overall just a good team I’m thinking.
Im sure after what we all saw J. Wong do with Wolverine using Akuma’s tatsu assist, there is no guestion that it can help in a major way.
I switched Wolvie out for Spencer on my team, so Im running;
Wolvie(slash assist), Hagger(lariet), Sent(drones)
I also tried; Wolverine, Hulk, Sent. lots of fun running rush down with wolverine, and then play keep away with Hulk and Sent.
Sent’s :h: cr.:h: xx :qcb::l: with Hulk’s wave assist is good stuff.
But its hard to drop Hagger since he has that GDLK lariet assist.
I’ve been thinking about dropping Arthur for Dante, with Haggar on point and wolverine as #2. Arthur’s dagger assist has a lot of uses with wolverine, such as crossup slash combos, df.M combos, and instant overhead L combos. I’ve been playing around with Dante’s Weasel shot to replace arthur’s dagger assist. You have to have a little delay between the assist call and the move, but all three of these combos with arthur can work with Dante.
Just wanted to ask opinions of arthur vs dante assist with wolverine
I’m using Shellhead/Logan/Zero as my 3rd reserve team. So far I’ve been pretty good with 'em, Wolverine’s a lot more manageable in this game than in MvC2, especially with the retooled Berserker Slash. I’m a little wary of putting Logan on point though, even with a Uni-Beam & Zero’s projectile backing him up, since I heard his stamina is still low…
I’ve been running
Wolverine, Slash
Ryu, Tatsu
Sentinel, SForce
I don’t really know what assist to use on Wolvie tbh. All three of them seem pretty useless. I use sentinel drones to close the gap and then once I’m up close I’ll try to use the tatsu assist and go high/low with wolverine into launcher. Sometimes the tatsu knocks them too far though. Ryu’s pretty nice for DHCing from basically everything and his combos are so easy that they’re almost undroppable even with online lag. Even so, he’s kind of ass once you run out of meter. I find that when I have no shinku available, I’m mostly just blocking and chucking hadokens until I can build more meter. So I guess Ryu is the weak link in the team. I think I might try Skrull (Tenderizer), Dante (Jam Session), or maybe even Ammy (Cold Star) for better lockdown/versatility.
Is it just me who prefers ending combos with berserker barrage x instead of fatal claw? If they’re in the corner, berserker barrage x leaves you right in front of them for followup mixups, and if they’re not in the corner, berserker barrage x pushes them closer. I also find fatal claw kind of annoying to dhc from, especially if theres an aerial exchange in there earlier and he’s even higher up off the ground. I also drop fatal claw more often if it’s laggy but I guess that’s my problem
I’ve been using wolv(barrage), wesker(samurai), ammy(cold star)
Wolverine is a lot of fun and reminds me of ggacand his mixups are amazin so he’s usually up front and also it seems like he’s so much better with the right assist. the only time he’s not upfront is when iam havin a hard time getting in. Wesker samurai edge creates unblockables and otg for me if their trying to block my mixups I get a free combo lol and wolv’s barrage actual helps me a lot wit wesker mixups and continuing weskers combos and ammy’s cold star helps me get in as long as they aren’t a full sreen away and they really can’t see what iam trying to do so it becomes a three way complete guess.
From what I can tell he’s definitely best paired with lock down characters. His berserker charge (the qcb one) + any ranged assist = orgasms.
I have been practicing this team for a while:
**Wolverine (with berserker slash assist), Akuma (with tatsu assist) and Magneto (with electromagnetic bean assist)
**
but I have a few things to talk about:
I picked this team because wolverine is my favorite marvel comics character, akuma because its been my main in every game he has been on and magneto because he is badass and I tought that his bean assist would be good for wolverine to get in the opponent face.
the strategy that i use with wolverine is try to get in with magneto assist and really close maybe with the akuma assist to start a combo. but I have a few problems, for example if my opponent is doing constant preassure while a block i dont know how to counter attack, i use advancing guard but i dont know what to do next, also i am thinking that this team has kind of bad heatlh. so my questions are:
**
1.- do you think the 3 assists attacks that I picked are good or do I change one of them?
2.- how to I get off the pressure and what is the best way to counter attack it?
3.- do you think the team has bad heatlh? do I change magneto for someone else? or do you think is a good team?**
Thanks and sorry if my english is bad but i hope you understand
I was using Wolverine (Berserker Slash), X-23 (Ankle Slice), Ryu (Tatsumaki) but I just can’t bring myself to stick with this team for some reason. Not sure why, I’m decent with all of the characters but I think I just worry about team synergy too much for where I’m at (I’m only a Rookie with barely 10 ranked matches played, most of my matches are with friends or just player matches). I’m not really looking to get too competitive, just have fun so I probably shouldn’t worry as much about squeezing every drop of synergy as I can out of my team, but I do come from a long history of playing online games (mainly MMOs) and I am a bit of a min/maxer which usually gets the better of me.
Problem is, I try to swap out X-23 for someone with more ranged options/assists (someone like Magneto or Iron Man), but I can’t play anyone else nearly as well (or I just don’t enjoy playing them as much despite them maybe bringing more to the table) so I end up feeling like I only have 2 people on my team and 1 guy who can assist and take some hits before bowing out.
I think I may be able to get good with Tron though so I might go with Wolverine (Berserker Slash), Tron (not sure on assist), Ryu (Tatsu). Her Gustaff Flame I’ve heard good things about but I think it might overlap with Ryu’s assist in terms of what I would use it for, so I might go with her Rock Throw to have a bit of a ranged assist although I don’t think it’s as good as a beam assist would be.
THANKS! my team right now is wolverine/hulk/ammy this helps alot! gotta get that bnb down!
Ok gotta change this:
Wolverine(any assist)
Storm(projectile)
Sent(drones)
Boss team can DHC outta of almost any BNB Hyper Combo setup
right now i’m running C.Viper (burning kick) Wesker(jaguar kick) & wolverine (Berserker slash).
No problem! The DHC into Gamma Crush is kind of inconsistent though, you may only get 2 or 3 hits sometimes. You can also DHC into Gamma Quake, which looks cool but it’s really hard to time.
I use Wolverine (B.Barrage), IronMan (Unibeam) and Trish (peekaboo) in that order.
IronMan is useful for DHC, and you can switch to trish if you have meter.
Also unibeam assist helps wolvie to get in, you can do good mixups, crossups with B.Slash etc
Trish peekaboo is used defensively and you can pseudo hide the traps by jumping or super jumping right after you call the assist. Also i set traps when a new character is about to enter the fight so they have to block the trap and i can continue rushing most of the time.
Then you have her threatening super, change assist bring back claws, and try to open their guard.
That said i may change trish for doom or dormammu from time to time because i like the characters, and i’m not sure my actual team can deal with any type of other teams, especially keep away types.
I think if Wolverine is your “main,” he should always be paired with either Akuma (Tatsu) or Sentinel (Drones). There are no other assists that maximize his potential more than those two.
Edit:
With that being said, I’m running Wolverine with Akuma right now, but I just can’t decide on a third character. Where is my team lacking, which character do you guys think would round out my team?
storm is a great pair for wolvie, because you can utilize the DHC glitch.
Do a launch combo with Logan ending with divekick, relaunch, combo into j.:d::s: for team air combo swith to storm, finish air combo with :s: use Storms Elemental Rage as OTG, DHC into Logans Beserker Charge hyper, relaunch and end combo.
Proper Notation:
(start with logan) :l::l::h::s: ^ :h: xx :atk::s: :d::h: land :h::s: ^ :h: :d::s: (storm comes in) :h::s: land :dp::atk::atk: DHC (before last hit) :d::d::atk::atk: (Damage Scaling Resets) :h::s: ^ :l::h: :atk::s: (either fatal claw or :d::h:, depending on how much meter you have and what you need to kill them)
After the DHC into logans Beserker Charge there are many options, you might be able to team air combo switch more IDK and I know there are some wild juggle combos you can do to, but I dont know them.
Im at work right now so I cant give you exact figures but this combo does massive damage 800,000 minimum, if I remember correct, and it only has a net loss of about .3-.5 bars of hyper meter.
I pair Sent with my Logan and Storm for more DHC glitch happiness (between storm and sent) and plenty of Sent drones flying in, to either mix my opp up with Logans Beserker Slash or play keep away with Storms whirlwind.
EDIT:
After work tonite Im going to double check these numbers. Because there is a good chance that this Wolvie/Storm combo is positive on meter and probably does much more than 800,000 damage due to the glitch
Sorry for the long post but this DHC glitch has me doing huge damage and winning alot of matches taht I wouldnt be otherwise, I just wanna make sure taht everyone is aware of Wolvies possiblilties when hes on the right team.
I’m loving Wolverine/Skrull/Sent right now. I want to switch out Sent for Doom, but I need to get Doom in the workshop.
Bonuses for Skrull
Tenderizer lock down for mixups
Anti projectile char for zoners
His command grab is great with Sent’s drones
DHC Skrull Level 3 out of Wolvie’s BnB combo is an instakill on almost any character if you have 4 meters to use. Great for surprising Sent before he has a chance to X factor. About 1,100,000 damage and it’s super easy.
That post wasn’t too long at all, it was great and really insightful! I was actually considering just playing “Team Wongverine,” the only character I was missing was Storm. I guess we’ll see, thanks for your reply
That combo, as I metioned when I posted it a while back, does more than 1MM damage, and you can start it with no meter. The problem with that combo starting with wolvie is that it can be broke on the air exchange, so it’s best to start it with storm and DHC to wolvies Berserker Charge.
Here’s one more for you MrNannie, you can do the same with Magneto’s QCB+attack hyper.
My team right now is wolvie, storm, mags.
So my strategy is, start with wolvie and try to kill as much characters as I can, using storm DHC hyper or Mags DHC lvl3 Hyper. If wolvie gets low on health, I switch him with storm or mags, and wolverine stays on the bench only to do the DHC trick if the opportunity arises. If everything goes wrong I would want mags to be the last char standing for x-factor purposes. If you fear one of your opp character on x-factor, bring him in on the first combo you land. Just do the BnB, drill claw, dive kick, H xx snap back. Do the same if one of your opp character is low on health with lots of read health.
Assist strategy:
Storm whirlwind assist helps me get in and extend combos.
Mags beam assist helps me get in and extend combos.
Mags gravitaion assist lets me crossup with Berserker slash and combo from there (see combo thread or video thread).
Both characters are good to DHC after wolvies Fatal claw, but storm is better so she gets to be assist 1. Mags lvl3 hyper is one of the best in the game. Fast, full screen, invincibility and damage wise.
Wolvie, Storm and Mags combos are pretty similar with each other. ADF is basically the same as drill claw just different buttons, and storms air lighting attack is exactly as drill claw.
Cons: Low health team. If they’re comboed while assisting they’re probably dead. Storm deos low damage, but has great mobility and is able to rush and zone.
