I like my team as it is right now. Tron assist doesn’t help spidey get in, but it helps him keep pressure on. The assist isn’t invincible 100%, but it’s very hard to hit. Beam supers can catch it clean obviously, but there are worse assists that are easier to catch.
OTG assist is a must for my team. With the OTG assist, I get to DHC off of spider-man super (because I don’t think you can DHC into anything after maximum spider. If i’m wrong please let me know that’d be godlike) into Tron Lunch Rush on top of letting me get an easily hit confirmable combo into a snapback.
OTG assist also ups Tron’s damage by a shitload.
Also yes, I’m “that” Sakura player I suppose. Though I dunno exactly what that means.
Lol it’s meant as a compliment. I believe you played a few times in the option-select stream? I’m not sure where I saw you playing but you styled people with Sakura.
There are a few supers that can DHC after MS, because they OTG by themselves. Out of the top of my head, I can think of Zero’s Skittles rainbow, Magneto’s EMP and lvl 3, Doom’s Lvl3, any of Hulk’s (some are corner dependent), Hailstorm also OTGs, so I’m pretty sure that should work too.
You can in fact DHC into a crap ton of stuff after Maximum Spider: Zero’s thing where he shoots that beam into the ground, Taskmaster’s Arrows straight up, both of Sentinel’s ground stuff, etc. You can basically do any OTG DHC’s after it, as well as other stuff, if you DHC IMMEDIATELY after the last hit of Maximum Spider. Also, I discovered that any Hyper Combo that ends quick enough (i.e. Taskmaster’s whiffed counter hyper) will actually give you enough time to start a whole new combo as a true follow-up to Maximum Spider.
For example, immediately after the last hit of Maximum Spider, do the DHC for Taskmaster’s counter hyper (QCB+2 ATK’s) and he will have short enough recovery span to:
Shield Bash (Back+H)->Launch for a new aerial combo
OR
Spidey Swing (Forward+H)->some sort of combo that spikes him to the ground like M+M+S->s.M s.H Shield Bash Launch->Aerial Combo.
Spiderman has some silly ass combos, amirite?
Edit: LOL, wow, I wrote so much stuff that I got ninja’d. XDDDD

Played this match earlier, thought it was interesting how the two outcomes differ. Wish spidey’s super could go through… stuff
spidey has tons of dhc options after MS. i use wesker and amaterasu as well, both are super easy to dhc into with their level 1’s. if you time it right you can even dhc into ammy’s level 3.
what a powerful gimmick lol. However with spidey on point and deadpool on that OTG assist, there isn’t much room left for GOOD team chemistry. Any character you put on that team is really handicapped now cause 2 characters are using bad assists. Outside of OTG, that deadpool assist doesn’t look so useful.
one of the other assist might work but the great thing about that deadpool assist is that it automatically does that bounce regardless of hit stun decay. I haven’t tried all of the OTG assists just yet but the other ones aren’t working so well cause of hit stun decay. Another factor is that say you do land the OTG setup, ball, uwt with another assist. The deadpool assist with hit OTG after ther UWT and allow a free combo. Some of the other OTG assists have such a slow startup that another OTG setup isn’t possible.
I got this combo that does 511,000 damage solo and with that deadpool assist, it becomes 811,000 before the relaunch which would kill quite a few characters in 1 hit.
yo shoultz whats your strongest combo so far? im averaging a little over 6 with spidey going from web swing into spider sting/bite into air M web swing into maximum spider. thing is im sure there are MULTIPLE chances for resets in the combo.
don’t get me wrong, that spidey loop with deadpool is insane! I don’t think any other character in the game gets that much damage off 1 bar. If I really wanted to, I think I could do a million points easy off 1 bar on that team.
However, say you run spidey\deadpool\xxx, your team is EXTREMELY limited now. Spidey assists suck and you’re using deadpool to solely OTG. It doesn’t quite suit anything else. Deadpool as of now isn’t really that good and your 3rd character will not have any good assists to use. Its incredibly limited in terms of team chemistry.
I’m for it IF I see good team chemistry all across the board. I was trying spdiey\dante crystal\sentinel earlier. Even though dante crystal does OTG, its a zoning tool, AA and it does fucking awesome block stun allowing spidey\sent to get mixups. Sentinel can use the crystal quite effectively as well. However the OTG, web ball, UWT setups seem quite finicky with dante assist and its like that for some of the other otg assist characters as well.
If you pick an assist that only allows spidey to perform that loop and it does nothing else, thats bad. If you can find another OTG assist that does multiple things like dante’s, that’s good. Haven’t quite found the middle ground yet.
Well deadpool, x-23, wesker, she-hulk and felicias OTG assists all hit low, so paired with spideys really fast web zip overheads, and overheads for whoever your third is gonna be you can set-up some really nasty unblockables. In fact I think I saw floe running sentinel with wesker and going for some nice unblockables so thats one use outside of UWT set-up.
Also I think OTG assists can set-up some good mix-up with how the opponent techs up after the assist hits. I really don’t think picking an OTG assist is that bad of a decision especially if its one of the aforementioned low hitting assists.
I do admit though that that dudes team wasn’t very good, it fell apart the instant spidey died in all the matches since ryu and deadpool didn’t really have much synergy. With that said, Im sure you can build a team with nice synergy paired with OTG assists.
I just posted this in the combo thread and I hadn’t realized somebody got a video up before me lol. Well, I recorded this yesterday but didn’t feel like putting it up until today. I guess you can say this is the completed version. Anyway, the team I use is Spidey/Taskmaster/Deadpool. I understand that some of you guys think that Spidey paired with Deadpool is a bad match, but it’s actually pretty good with somebody like Taskmaster. He picks up where Spidey/Deadpool lacks, this is why I pick them in that exact order. Deadpool can do the DHC trick with Taskmaster, but only using Spidey’s Web Swing assist. Taskmaster can safely DHC from Spidey’s MS, Deadpool can DHC from Spidey’s Crawler Assault, and Deadpool can OTG assist before and after Spidey’s UWT. Deadpool can also OTG with Taskmaster to finish a damaging combo with his Cuttin’ Time.
There are plenty of DHC possibilities and combo usages that I create with this team. I find that my team chemistry is good, and can stabilize itself no matter which member of the team falls. Outside of combos, Deadpool’s assist isn’t great, but I use Spidey’s Web Swing assist to maintain ground pressure for either Tasky or Deadpool to follow up on. Both Taskmaster and Deadpool does not have trouble getting in for the kill, though. The more I work with this team, the more possibilities I discover and the more synergy I gain overall.
