Teams that are "looking" strong thus far..(strictly theory fighting)

I agree, well mostly I feel that his Anti-Air assist and directional Shinku looks fairly good. His combos aren’t too bad either. He’s like an not as godly MvC2 Cyclops ha. Just doesn’t have that Jumping HK spam that makes him float kinda, but whiffed normals don’t build meter so it wouldn’t matter if Ryu had that anyways.

I think Ryu would be a good addition to a team that needs an AA.

Trish, Chun, Dorm is sounding very good right now. I wonder if Deadpool would change this team overall replacing Chun. What u guys think. Its those guns that i can’t get by. very fast and seem to have good recovery.

Seismo if anything is akin to Sentinel’s projectile assist in MvC2, or at least that’s what I get when I see it.

Edit: Instead of making thunder knuckle an assist, they should have made her focus attack an assist. That would be WILD!

So if I have Dante (Jam Session), Ammy (Ice Beads), and then what assist should Skrull have? Stone Smight or Orbital Grudge?

Boo. It would be invincible.

I would also go with Stone Smight. But I don’t know what Orbital Grudge is.

That would be awful. Coming out as an assist and launching an incredibly slow attack (albeit with armor) is suicidal with the extra damage assists take.

Stone smight, which one is that?

Amaterasu/Storm/???

Amaterasu and Storm LOOK like they would go fairly well with each other. Decent coverage at any distance. Good speed. Safe supers that cover full screen, allowing for some decent DHC’s. Just all around decent characters with adaptable playstyles.

Not sure about my 3rd. I really like skrull, but i dont know how well he will fit here. And TBH, in terms of their assists, I dont really know what does what outside of storm. Tron might be an option, but no broken ass projectile assist makes me sad. Trish is probably my best bet from what i’ve seen.

Fuck im so hype to get into training mode and test shit out.

If you want characters that can go all around and adapt their playstyles… Trish and Iron Man could work. Trish is good but don’t sleep on Iron Man, he’s got a lot of potential.

Really and truly, both Storm and Amaterasu (ESPECIALLY Ammy) are versatile enough to go with any team. Both are relatively quick, with good short and long range tools, and great, versatile hypers. With those two, I’d say it’s better to decide what you want your team strategy to be and then pick a third character around that, rather than worrying about who would mix well with them.

When i first pick up the game i really want to use Deadpool and M.O.D.O.K but not sure on a third any idea who would go well with them?

Iron Man. Always Iron Man when you are unsure.

You can go with a third keepaway character like Doom, or get somebody who has a really solid Anti-air assist like Dante, Ryu or Morrigan.

I got a chance to play it today and x-23/Doom’s rocks = keep blocking son. Anyone who can cover x-23’s ass as she gets in to start the mix-up/rushdown will be an invaluable partner. MODOK, Dormammu, Doom, Iron Man are good at this. Spencer’s GET OVER HERE would work too.

Wesker’s assist, the downward handgun shot hits floored characters e.g after x-23’s qcf command grab. Couldn’t think of any follow ups to this, but it does work.

Ok thanks i will try these :tup:

hmmm… ok dont really know if q’s like this should be posted here but the charactedrs that i really want to use are:

arthur
chun
phoenix
ammy
spencer

i like arthur, ammy and phoenix best from seeing them play. but are there any synergies within those characters and the other 2 on the list?

-edit not counting assists since i dont know what they do, ammy,arthur,phoenix seems like its biggest weakness would be meter. all the characters would have big use for meter… but arthur seems like the only one that NEEDS meter (armor) ammy looks like she could be a good battery via keepaway or rushdown arthur second for armor assist. phoenix may not have the abiilty to get to broken state if arthur goes golden armor… so strategy may be needed in going only 1 level of armor. immediate switch out/metered tag when 5 meters is gotten, play phoenox till she dies and gets imba.

anywho thats my general no clue on how to play marvel thoughts… any idea on whether any of that bs would actually be viable?

If you know what you want to use your character for then finding characters to compliment that isnt really hard at all.

I think there needs to be a methodology behind team synergy. I might make a thread.

@Dime_x: Well the one thing i can tell you about ammy/phoenix/arthur is that you have very little margin for error. All 3 of those characters combined probably have less health than the hulk. With that said I think ammy would work very well with phoenix, with either the cold star or meter building assist. Jean is apparently a rush down character so i think cold star would work very well with some tri-dash teleport shenanigans, or the meter assist can help jean build up meter for those healing fields that I think are gonna be an integral part of her game.

yeah, thanks for that. i didnt think of there low health. hmmm… thats a definite problem with them. so weak pints now are all use lots of meter and all are glass cannons… not looking good. im used to low hp characters… they dont really scare me. i main ibuki and second chun and akuma in 4.

but something tells me that low hp in 4 and low hp in marvel are 2 completely different things.

but i really think i’m kind of deadset on trying to make this team work. at least for the first month so that i might be able to make better teams for them… that having been said i like your suggestion of abusing healing field. that combined with golden armor and MAYBE ammys meter buliding assist might make this teams hp more viable.

any raeason why you like ammy phoenix arthur better than ammy arthur phoenix?

-dime

I swear you guys are over thinking this.

Look at what the character does and DOESNT do well.

Put someone on their team who does what they cant do well as a full character or assist form

Do it again.

Theres you team. God damn!
