Team Weapon X - Options for Teams That Include ol' Canuckle Head

Thanks for the response, Sorry to double post your combo.

So Are you saying that Mags :qcb:hyper can be DHC’d into Beserker Charge for a damage reset!!
I always want to play with Mag and I practice with him sometimes, but the reason I havent put him on my team is Health, as you mentioned. I like having Sent as a tank to give Wol and Storm a change to regain some health.

But I think I’ll run that team some next week (Im basically at work all day and all night on the weekends, Mon-Wed are my days off)

If you were on Xbox Id like to get some matches, Ehh.

Thanks man

I’m only on PSN and in Europe so lag would be an issue.

And yes you can use Magneto’s Hyper as you use storm’s to do the DHC Trick and reset damage. Well to be honest I haven’t tried it yet because I didn’t had the time but Magneto’s QCB+AA Hyper is one of the one that fill the requirements so it should be, I risk saying it is, possible.

And I think that at some point either storm or mags will be dropped from my team to include a stronger character such as Dormammu, Doom, etc.

And the DHC Trick will prolly be patched too so you’ll lose that tool. But right now both storm and mags help wolvie a lot and are both great chars on their own.

Man do you really think there gonna patch that Glitch. Ill be bummed if they do. There were so many problems with the last one that this Glitch doesnt seem to game breaking to me. IDK
Heres hoping the Glitch survives. If they do patch it Ill probably run Mag Storm Sent

Found a couple of neat tricks with Wolvie/Spiderman:
Spidey’s Web Ball assist can be used to extend combos after mashed :h: berserker barrage, and you can dhc out of maximum spider into berserker charge to secure a launch and juggle for good damage and/or reset posibilities. Liking their synergy so far.

DHCing into B. Charge from Spideys Hyper will not give you the damage/hit stun reset glitch. But It may still net you more damage, than the other Wolvie Hypers, depending on how you use it

While trying to get into this I been using wolverine/morrigan/felcicia, and sometimes wolverine/deadpool/felicia. The first seems to work better. I usually put wolvy in berserk and tag in felicia and use him with a assist strategy while using felicia with her partner and morrigan as assist for hyper bar. I tend to save wolverine for last though because his x factor is incredible. My main aim when using him to fight was to use felicia’s ball to hit someone off guard giving me a combo or using her to extend a combo since she rolls up and off just frame locking them. Not sure how well it really works since I never get to play with real people.

Send me a freind request on Live and Ill let u know :wink:

I just started wolverine/storm/sent and it seems great so far. I’ve been using sentinel force to help wolverine get in and once I get a hit I go for the storm DHC trick combo that was mentioned earlier. Sent can also do DHC trick combos with storm to add to the craziness.

What weaknesses would this team have? I’m thinking Pheonix, but I’m not sure.

Low health for Wol/Storm
Low agility for Sent
Wolverine doesnt have a ‘good’ assist

Jean is no problem, just rush that bitch down, snap her in, rinse, repeat. Just do what ever is nessecary to keep her from running away, 2/3 of you team can fly and the other 1 is fast enuf to find a way in.

In general: Use Sents drone assist with Wolverines Slash, for cross ups and mix ups. Also use this assist with Storms whirlwind for some full screen spam fun (I like to jump with storm and throw my whirlwinds at head height, this can help you avoid projectile while dishing it out)
Dont forget that you can also deal huge chip damage with Hail Storm if your in a pinch, use Drones to lock them down and chip away.

I posted some Storm Sent combos in the Storm thread if you wanna check them out, but it isnt anything you couldnt figure out on your own.
I plan to run this team until (if) they patch the DHC glitch. If they do patch it I will likely trade Wolverine for Mags

you guys think Wolverine goes well with Chunli (legs assist) ???

Thanks, I’ll check it out. I have no idea what I’ll do if the glitch is patched, but I’m enjoying it for now :o

Anyone here know how to use Wolverine’s assists? I’m trying to make a team like Wolverine / Zero / Ironman or Wolverine / Zero / Storm (for the DHC trick). I can use Zero’s Shippuga assist to extend Wolvy’s 3B or j. A overhead into a real combo, but who benefits from Wolvy’s assists? Zero doesn’t really since Berserker Barrage is too fast for him to use it with his j. qcf B OTG, it hits, but Zero can’t continue the combo after (maybe I’m just bad though?). Anyone got a tip? I know Wolvy should be on point, but sometimes you have to take him out to heal or you DHC into someone else. It would just really improve his utility if I had a character to DHC into that he really helped out somehow. Like say, Storm? Anyone know how a Wolvy assist could help Storm out? Combo extender? Anything? Any character at all that Wolvy improves would be a big help. Thanks!

I just use Tornado Claw as a anti air since I use Trish to Runaway sometimes. But it has horrible range, but once you get the understanding of how it works (range and timing), it has saved me a ton of times. Most people don’t expect AAAs anymore lol

wolv/task/akuma

is my current team and i have been working on it for sometime

this build is so great as we all know akuma assist really helps wolv and task master can dhc really good with wolv and on the other hand task is pretty good himself

then if it came down to akuma his xfactor lvl 3 is so good and u can count on him

I’ve been using Wolvie/Hulk(Gamma Charge)/Doom(Beam).

Hulk’s forward Gamma Charge allows me to continue combos off of his slide. I also like DHCs involving Fatal Claw into Gamma Quake. This does crazy damage.

Doom’s beam assist helps Wolvie (and Hulk) get in as well as allows easy combos off of Berserker Slash cross-up games. The beam pops them up.

I just formulated this team, but it looks pretty good so far.

So far I’m liking Wolverine/Arthur/Shuma

Mystic Ray seems ok there could be some crossing up possibilities with berserker slash? not sure

:l: :m: :l: :h: :s: j.:m: j.:m: j.:h: Drill ClawxxDive Kick then once you land the dive kick just mash assist and continue your bnb Shuma’s beam will hit him but it will keep him in place so you can do
:h: :s: j.:m: j.:m: j. :h:>Drill Claw>fatal claw

This gives you about 483,800

I’m considering using Wolvie/Ammy/Wesker.

Ammy’s cold star assist seems like it would help Wolvie get in nicely, and weskers OTG connects in between Wolvie’s combo loops correct?

I’m fairly new just trying to find a team that’s creative and has nice synergy.

Eh, I’ve been using Wolverine, Tron, Sentinel, but it’s really really boring to use Sentinel. I love his Drones assist. It extends Tron’s combos and gives Wolverine some tricks, but…Sentinel is just bland. :expressionless: Is there anyone I can replace him with? Maybe Akuma would be decent but I’m not sure.

So at this point I think my two best characters (and conveniently the two I enjoy playing the most) are Wolverine and Magneto. I’ve practiced with them enough that their BnBs are pretty much second nature for the most part. I’m undecided on who my third should be though.

I was previously using Ryu with his Tatsu assist to server as sort of a beefier Akuma but the more I play Ryu the more I feel he just limits me. If I’m fighting against a rushdown with him his zoning can’t keep them out at all, and if I’m fighting a zoner Ryu can’t outzone nor does he really have the mobility or tools to get in well. It’s a shame because I do really like Ryu.

I could go with Akuma since he pairs so well with Wolverine but my team is already on the squishy side and my defense isn’t good enough to run a team like that I feel. At the same time though I’m not really into slow tank characters like Hulk or Sentinel. I find I prefer fast, highly mobile characters.

I was actually looking at Iron Man with his Repulsor Blast assist. I haven’t tested it to see if it allows Wolverine to combo off of things like his OTG or instant overhead yet, but if it did than I think IM is a strong candidate for me. He’s highly mobile with his air mobility being 2nd to none, and he’s got about the same amount of health as Wolverine I believe (slightly below average), which is fine.

Edit: Tested it today. Repulsor blast only lets you extend combos with Wolverine from the corner it seems (and even then not very well). If you try to use it midscreen your opponent can easily block the assist from Wolverine’s slide or instant overhead.

I’ll probably just stick to my original team: Wolverine/Ryu/Magneto. Ryu still feels like a limiting factor but I’m hoping that just continued play will sort that out as I do have a lot of fun using him, more than Akuma actually.

I use zero on point and wolvie on assist I just the beserker slash to cross up you can do it after s.H and before shippuga comes in handy when you are doing a blockstring if they are just blocking call him in to get a crossup, its not garuanteed but its pretty safe if you are applying pressure.
