The Low-Tier team thread

Remember his gametag? The only fierce Wolverine I’ve faced online was Mixup and one time when Sunahebi picked Wolvie/Spiral(a). Never got to face VDO on PS3, but I’ve seen him run through people with the Logans too.

no :[

Somebody ran through me with doublewolves the other day but I forgot his tag also… lol
Edit* it was Xx Order xX or something close to that. ate me alive.

wolvy\hood sounds like my boy brandon simmons from jacksonville. Its a real strong low tier combination.

Basic ground series hit confirm, qcf+p, mash, qcf+pp, max it out then DHC hood missle and omgad, fucking massive life.

Missle allows wolvy to do some pretty good ground pressure and when you SJ, he can use the missle to cross you up upon landing. Its pretty solid for him. Needless to say that poke poke, THC is good with almost any BBH combination but its really good with wolvy. IIRC, wolvy’s super during is the qcf+pp and when it hits, it puts them @ the perfect height for all of hood’s projectiles to combo properly.

The problem with wolvy\hood is that it eventually becomes hood\wolvy\xxx @ some point. The 3rd character on the team has to help both wolvy and hood but also the 3rd character needs to work with them. I’m thinkin wolvy\hood\mando. Wolvy as an assist is so bleh =*(

Immoral Aires Wolvies are pretty dangerous to say the least. The only reason he lost was because I got his ken and his Wolverine in HSF loop and his other wolvie was meat in the corner.

if skitz ever gets back on xbl ask him to pick wolvie

Wolve(metal)-A/Wolve(bone)-Y/bbHood-A is a wrecking ball with offense.

I like Anakaris/Juggernaut/Tron.

You get the mixup of instant overhead with Anakaris and combo into Tron assist, or Juggernaut expansion type hitting overhead.

You can OTG after Juggernaut and air super with Anakaris also.

you can launch+juggs body splash, sj.FKxxCurse, jugg hits, and then curse combos.

if juggs is cursed then that infinite ends REAL quick.

more teams peeps. please less tron teams though. sort of boring and we can already guess where the danger/damage comes from. I think I wanna learn omega red. maybe an omega/anak team? hmmm.

The only thing I don’t like about OR are his assists, I find they are quite useless outside of maybe his AA one. He is a fun character to play and I see a lot of OR/BBH teams that can dish out A LOT of damage. Anak/OR/BBH might be formidable.
Lately I’ve been trying to run a team with Wolv on point. Been using Wolv-Y/Marrow-A/SonSon-Y. Team is ok. Sonson assist is very nice as a “get off me” card. Wolv on point with marrow to cover with the assist does decently. Marrow’s air ultra allows for a safe DHC (at least I haven’t been punished for it yet) I really like using marrow on point as well, I’ve caught a good amount of people with the jumpback HP bonerang Dash BnB and with all around nonsense. My only problem so far is with Son Son. I haven’t really had any time to play with the character so I’m pretty useless with her.

I accidentally picked OR AAA once. when fighting gabe actually (anak/storm/sonson user). it was mag/storm/OR. IIRC it wasn’t too bad (I won) and I think it got storm through hailstorm even (close to the startup)

i’ve been buried in shit lately. School, work, projects, was in trouble with the law (all settled now), etc. So I have no time for fun. No matter what, Imma get on about mid-October because I miss marvel so much, and I REALLY want to play Halo: Reach like right now lol. Imma try to get into Double Wolvie/xxx teams or WM/IM/Doom. Double characters ftw!

Psylocke/Capcom/Doom or Tron- This was the last team I experimented with before the shit poured down from the heavens lol. Basically your gameplan is to get your opponent in the corner and pressure his ass into making a very very costly mistake.

I usually start with Psylocke because she can do a very hurtful combo with either cr. lk or U+hk. If you get a hit with one of these moves, it should always hurt alot, except against Sentinel.

  1. cr. lk, st. lp, st. lk, Launch + capcom, magic series, u + fk xxx hk psyblade xxx butterflies (delay) DHC captain sword. It does weird shit on Cable.

  2. U+fk, double jump (dj) u+ fk, triple jump + Doom, j. lp, j. lp, j. hp, rocks hit, psyblade xxx butterflies dhc into captain sword.

When in the corner just do a shit load of block strings + Doom for some cheap ass chip. Most people are going to be mashing on their AAA at this point, so break your blockstring, call capcom or doom and laugh at how predictable he is.

You do the same thing with Capcom. Block strings with doom, and when you think they are mashing their assist call psylocke and do corridor xxx sword.

Strengths- pretty good damage, great blockstrings, good punishes.

Weakness- Doom as a point is not as dangerous as point, so any smart person would snap you out and you would have virtually nothing to do against it. no safe DHCs.

i just wanna say that was the greatest mvc2 video ive ever seen roflmao

I think I wanna learn omega red. maybe an omega/anak team? hmmm.

I?ve played an Omega Red/Anakaris/Strom team for a while now, in fact, that?s the team I use when I play ranked. OR; Throw assist, Anakaris; Ground assist, Storm; Projectile assist.
Anakaris and Omega can do the voodoo doll semi infinite?Launch and assist with O Red, sj, fp, qcf, lk. Repeat as necessary. Personally, I?ll only do it about 2 times, then I just take them out with a slight modification to the combo. After the fp in the air to O Red?s throw assist, air dash across the screen with Anakaris. When O Red throw?s them back up to you, do Anakaris?s snake super, making sure that each head comes out in a wave like pattern. One retracting, while one is on his way out. The full screen allows each snake head to hit several times, both ways. This can take out most, if not all characters, full bar.

O Red and Storm aren?t a bad team up, Storm projectile assist and O red Omega Strike can get you across the screen somewhat safely. DF and FK with her assist is helpful as well.

When O red is on point, I like to do this; lk, mk, fk and Anakaris assist, omega strike straight up, ( assist knocks them into the air) cancel strike into Carbonamium Smasher, DHC to Anakaris raging demon super,(slap them around about 4 or 5 times) DHC to Storm hail storm.

I don?t play Storm all that well, so all you Storm pros can easily find stuff with her and either of these guys. The only reason I use her is because her assist is the only one that worked for me.

Simple stuff I know, but fun nonetheless.

hehe I actually have already been playing OR/ANAK/Sonson for about a week now (anak on coff drop assist). yep, been doing curse infs on people with that exact setup. just spent a little bit in training mode and I figured out a bunch of setups/combos with the team (including the ones you mentioned)

there’s some very very funky resets possible involving coff drop. too many different variations and tricks to go into right now.

a simple CS combo is cr.lk+anak, s.mp, sj, CS. instead of sj you can HP coil and it will combo after the coff drop. it hurts.

sonsonAAA hits lead to coils or sj.hp, hk.
sonson can pull off some funky screen shenanagins if she combos into coil grab, and then wall runs. the screen goes every which way and you can do some weird variations/mixups.

Sweetness…

I like how I’ll hear "HOW THE HELL DID I GET BACK UP HERE?!? I DIDN’T JUMP!!! THIS GAME IS F****D!!! LOL:rofl:

I’ve never tried to use the coff. drop assist…I gotta try that. Dose it track the opponent? Thanks for the idea.

it’s easily one of my fave curse infinites with him…for the pure jankness of it all.

coff drops don’t track. it’s only really good once you get them in some hitstun/blockstun. from there you have many ways for mixups.

attack+coffinxxstrike is pretty much how it works. you can vary the strikes to go on the other side, stay on the same side, go on the other side and then comeback, etc. you can vary when to press the coff drop and when toe cancel the strike for varying mixups. you can use the same ideas but utilize the launch to mix it up even more (launch+coffin, lk strike, mix it up from there). it can be pretty fun =]

i like combining ruby heart AA/bonerine Y assists. who goes good with them? i had ryu as the third but hes kinda meh.

Can’t go wrong with double wolves :P. Most of the time with low tier teams I tend to hold the last spot for KenA/Y or SonsonY

i like the Logans, but to me Double Wolvies is a flexing team. You pick it for flash or when you get hot and just wanna push buttons.

Don’t get me wrong. Zaza was a god. But he never was a fan conventional team chemistry. When he went off with the character, it was because he did work with the character, not the team. He controlled pacing to a ridiculous extent and basically made it look like he steamrolled people, even though he really just chipped away with short combos in an uphill battle. The game environment now is dominated by one touch killers and zoning maestros-- he wouldn’t get away with a lot of his ballsy quickdrops or drills anymore.
