Hehe, yeah I meant assist for ammy on point. Sorry if I was unclear.
Has anyone thought of Ammy/Strange/Hawkeye? I randomly stumbled across the thought in my Marvel fueled school daydreams and I thought about just how devastating a random THC could be.
It could work. Greyhound assist would be great for covering Ammy’s advances. Strange’s assists probably have some decent use as well. Strange himself is decent with a projectile/beam assist for left/rights.
However, Ammy’s meter building isn’t what it’s used to be. The THC itself would basically be used to kill off weakened characters that whiff or do something unsafe. Generally, its better to go for the kill than letting someone go but in theory, the team should function well.
THCs… None of them have anything invulnerable. I love THCs when I have Spencer on point but here what purpose does it serve that isn’t filled by a DHC? And really, there’s not much assist utility Strange can add if you already have Hawkeye.
i’m new here, hai all 
tbh i wasn’t going to post here until i had a basic understanding of amaterasu (new as in just started to use her this weekend)
but i wanted to play ammy/hsien/strange. hsien-ko being the only char i know how to use
i thought it was silly to try and learn 2 new chars so i switch to ammy/hsien/hawkeye
now i just won’t play ammy without hawkeye, and i really want to keep hsien (all that loyalty garbage)
but i’ve also been thinking ammy/strange/hawkeye could be the way to go
so yeah, i am thinking of that team, assists being; bloom/daggers/kamikaze maaaaybe bolts but kamikaze has to stay for my glaive combos
strong battery / Strange / Ammy is the best order for that team
i play mostly Thor / Strange / Ammy, but it can also be Magneto/Strange/Ammy or Viper/Strange/Ammy for an S tier team.
THC with Hawkeye in the team = absolute instant hyper that hits anywhere. Not only does Gimlet hit in 0 frame, THCs always execute in 0 frame + time stop. The only way to stop this is by hitting the point character in the same frame he executes the THC, which is basically just a huge stroke of luck during rushdown. People use this Hawkeye THC from long range though, so yeah…
Oh and btw I still think Bloom is horrible because it has like 80+ punishable frames :<
THC’s execute from the start-up frames of the point character’s hyper, NOT 0 frames.
The fastest you can get it is 3 frames with Iron Fist or 4 frames with Spencer.
Thanks, Yaz.
True, and it’s so slow by comparison that Morrigan can call Dark Harmonizer again before Bloom lets you call your other assist. I’m honestly okay with this though - Ammy is already S-tier support and doesn’t need more options in that department.
What I don’t actually understand though is how fast the ‘time stop’ effect takes place, which is why I said it almost looks like instant because while your point character’s THC is starting up, the opponent is actually frozen much like Taskmaster grounded Legion Arrows and Akuma’s Messatsu Gohadou (beam).
Correct me if I’m wrong but I remember seeing a point Storm using a Hailstorm THC and the opponent was literally frozen for the entire duration that Storm was flying backward
no way to clarify myself because I still don’t have this game at home :<
The main character does their super up to the flash. The other characters appear at this time. If time is left over for animations after the first character hits their super flash, time is stopped as the others prepare. That’s the only thing though!
So I’m back in the team building thread. Again.
I’ve been pretty unexcited lately just using my main team (Felicia (B) - Ammy (B) - Hiryu (Y)), so I thought I’d mix it up a bit.
When Ultimate came out, I was thinking if I could use my 3 favorite Capcom characters in one team, but it never happened so far.
Namely, I want to use Dante instead of Felicia in that team.
Is there any sort of synergy within these 3? I’m pretty sure Dante + Hiryu does, but what about Ammy + Dante? Is it possible to get some ToD combos or some nasty hitconfirms by using Dante as a middle for combo extending assists (either by Jam Session or Weasel Shot. Maybe Crystal OtG can somewhat work too?).
I acknowledge the fact that out of these 3, Dante is a horrible anchor so putting him there is out of the question. I still have to practice my Dante a lot though, as I barely use him actually.
I was thinking the order could go Ammy(B)-Dante(Y)-Hiryu(Y) since that seems to be the order I’ll be probably having the most comfort without sacrificing synergy too much.
I think it’s gonna be bad for me that I’m going to drop my best character though, eh… But this is just a secondary team, and I’ll still use my cat a LOT.
you should be able to extend combos with jam session, something along the lines of using glaive and doing a launcher + jam session, charged j.H x2, charged thunder edge
Dante/Ammy were bffs in vanilla. While they’ve gone their separate ways in life, every once in a while they get back together to reminisce about the good ol days.
Jam Session is great for covering Ammy’s airdash, & is super easy to confirm off of (j.B xx j.QCF+C), & is good in combos. I REALLY miss jam session and think about picking Dante back up every day.

I can vouch for ammy/dante being very good. I prefer weasel shot personally and i think it’s better for your team since strider is already covering that area.
Recently I’ve been using zero spencer ammy. I really enjoy the team so my question is mainly about order. Would it be more beneficial to have ammy in the middle so that my points always have a safe dhc with slow. Also for stark specifically what combos have u found using jump loop with ammy assist. Any particular reason for using piercer over slant shot
I use piercer primarily for corner press, but also the extra damage is nice; in particular the followups you get from counter with piercer are nonsensically better than without.
Ah I see. Just checked out your video awesome combos btw. I have trouble getti.g the uvg after ammy assist… what type of mix ups are u getting from the team hyper.
