im trying to get amaterasu in my team, I mainly play Dante on point. I need other 2 characters, one of them could be ammy 2nd. and I need another one…any suggestions? maybe magneto? or wolverine?
Im kinda looking for a team that can attack and zone too, so Dante (jam session) and Amaterasu (cold star) can do that, now I need a good 3rd char…any help?
Ive been wreslting w/ this myself, though with Doom instead of Sent 3rd. HonzoGonzo, whose play I tend to emulate, runs Task 1st. I like Ammy 1st. I tried it his way figuring he would know best, but honestly I feel more in control starting w/ Ammy. So I guess my advice is to try it both ways and see who you feel like helps you seize the initiative best and keep it. Because it works fine both ways. He does prefer Task 1st, but told me he thinks either way could work, so take solace knowing that either way you know, you’re not necessarily making a mistake.
My fav two assists with Ammy thus far have been Hidden Missiles and Gustaff Flame, and with Dante in the equasion I would go Tron no question. Ammy’s sM has such speed and range, it works beautifully with Tron flame because it can convert from landed flame to combo very quickly and from surprisingly far away. Dante also has a lot of range on his slashes so, again, if you pop someone with a flame, you don’t have to be point blank (or close, even) to take them for a long ride.
Likewise, Cold Star is just great in general and could set up nice Dante mixups and attacks. <someone> Ammy tron is just an all around winner of a team shell. Justin plays it with Shulk, ive played it with Magneto, Taskmaster, Wolverine, Wesker… pretty much anyone can make that config work. And being as awesome as he is, I see no reason why Dante would be an exception. Hope that helps 
ammy, dante, task
Generally fill up the screen, I think ammy needs to be on a team with high HP counts, or can take advantage of the slow down ultra for hit confirm or counter attacks.
I picked up Ammy this week.
Im running Wesk(sam. edge)/Ammy(cold star)/Storm(whirlwind)
I have alot of practice with Storm and Wesk, and I have worked out some of the facets to Wesk and Ammy’s synergy, but I would like to know if you guys have any insight into Ammy and Storm’s synergy.
I run Ammy/Storm and they work well together. They both DHC into each other safely and of course you can DHC glitch from Storm to Ammy. One of the biggest strengths of this team is flat out gibbing assists. If your opponent likes to get cute with their Sentinel or Tron assist, pop your elements and DHC into blizzaga. If your opponent blocks with their point character, the assist is dead. If they let it rock, well…you just got some free supers and took 2 characters to half life.
Ammy’s coldstar lets Storm set up her high/low mixups with insta-float and triangle jumps. Storm’s whirlwind is of situational usefulness to Ammy for beating other projectiles and pushing an opponent into the corner (being in corner versus Dog = cherry poppin’ time). Once you’ve got them in the corner, Storm’s whirlwind can provide a little extra hitstun after a F+H combo in disc to easily switch to sword and continue the combo for big damage (hit whirlwind assist on the 4th F+H).
You need a solid 3rd to make them shine though, because they both really benefit from having some cover fire. Ideal candidates are Sentinel and Taskmaster as they both provide a cover assist and DHC glitch from Storm.
I tend to start Ammy on point because she has few (if any) bad matchups and she can build meter for Storm. You might want to practice some setups to sneak in an aerial exchange, because they lead to DHC glitch and death.
Hope that helps some and best of luck!
Yeah that does help. Thanks.
Ill be running these two with Wesk most likely. That doesn’t give me a good assist to get in with, but I believe Ammy and Wesker have there own unique synergy.
Off to watch more video of ppl using Ammy
I’ve become really enamored of Chris G’s team but would like to play a different character than Ryu in the center. What’s another character that would work well in the Ammy / ??? / Wesker formation?
Luckily you have a lot of viable options, but personally I would go with Tron. Gustaff Flame is great for the metagame (anti-Wolverine tech), extends combos, makes anything safe, etc. Ammy and Wesker can both extend her combos as well.
I see that your sig lists Zero as your other character and that works extremely well too. Stick with him if you like him. The assists that you have listed in your sig look ideal. Once Zero is close to getting popcorned, DHC Sougenmu out into Slowdown (or Shuffle if you see they pressed a button).
Trying to replace Chris G’s Ryu is like trying to replace Combofiend’s Spencer; the entire team is built around Ammy getting meters for Ryu and the Wesker extending Ryu’s combos. Without Ryu his team is not the same.
I like the dog A LOT, so I wanna use her on my team, Right now its Ammy/Wolve/Akuma, Any thoughts?
I need help! As of right now I’m using Ammy/Dormammu/Sentinel, and while I am not that great at the game (I suck), I seem to have hit a wall as far as online play. Should I consider a team change?
Do you feel that you would really be improved by dropping a character? Is there a character that you are feeling, “I don’t enjoy playing this character, having this character is not helpful” about? If you feel you simply are not good at the game, then you would likely be aided more by sitting down and practicing and playing the game more than by switching the team up. The team that you have presented appears to have a lot of things you can work with, and overall feels like a good, cognizant team.
If I were to drop anyone, I feel that it should be Sentinel, due to the already lower than average health of my team (besides Dormammu that is). However, I don’t know who I would use to replace him.
The Dormammu forum suggests Doom as his BFF, as you can do many good things with plasma or rocks.
Hmm, I’ll look into that. Thanks everyone!
I’ve been messing with Ammy Dante Shuma as an alternate team, holy shit Shuma makes ammy so annoying. Since his assist hits full screen and clears out any troublesome assists / projectiles, Ammy is free to just throw herself in from full screen with insurance behind her since Shuma will save her if she gets hit. Then when you’re in, Dante Jam session lets her do instant overheads in reflector mode and confirm into a combo Plus you get the awesome DHC glitch combos from Ammy to Dante that usually lead to 100%.
Shuma is kinda ass as anchor but if it’s just 1 vs 1, you always have x factor level 3 chaos dimension to end the match.
Who has better synergy with Ammy, C. Viper or X-23?
I don’t know about Viper, but X-23 and Ammy have great synergy.
Lol now I think I’ll use Storm, Ammy, Wesker. Whirlwind/Cold Star/Samurai Edge.
Viper can do her unblockable focus attack with ammy assist.
