The ULTIMATE, Friendly-Neigborhood, Spider-man Team-building Thread

I’m new to this and relatively new to fighting games. Spiderman is definitely my favorite character and I’m keeping him as point. My problem is that I need a second character, but I need help deciding on what assists are good for spidey. I want to use Strider as an anchor.

I was thinking of something like:

Spiderman/Dormammu/Strider
or
Spiderman/Ghost Rider/Strider
OR
Spiderman/Super Skrull/Strider
in that order.

What do you guys think? I don’t really want to play with Doom, I just don’t like him. And Deadpool is kinda overrated. I kind of want a tank sort of character as a second member of my team, but if I don’t really have a lot of options I could go with otherwise. I heard that Spiderman NEEDS OTG assists but that was just in vanilla, right? Wep Zip otg is a little difficult to pull off but with practice I think I can do it. I’m a below-average player, after all. I can beat a couple of my friends

Any ideas?

I would put someone who needs striders assist while it may be good for spider man it’s difficult to convert off of vajara using web zips . Doom would be perfect but if you don’t want to play him other characters such as Viper, Nova, Dante, Vergil, would be good choices as far as a “Tank” you could try Chris he works well with strider im not sure how well he works with spider-man though could be something to look into.

I would suggest Dante or Vergil out of the above choices. Chris doesn’t have as much as far as DHC’s, so it’s not too strong of a choice.

Spidey-Dormammu is a strong enough shell to do well with most common anchors today, but it’s highly suggested that you look for a strong neutral assist that benefits both characters. Strider can work with it but I don’t know how the synergy between him and Dormammu is since anchor Strider needs the meter when Dormammu would most likely end up burning it all.

Well in that case, I mean, I could try out Doom if it’s just one character I have to learn. I guess I don’t mind TOO much but my friend uses Doom and my other friend uses Dante. Also his moveset is fucking huge.

I’d be willing to drop Strider if I could replace him with a different, but still really good/fast character from Capcom. (it bothers me if I have ALL Marvel characters on my team)

Sorry I’m so picky with character decision xD

Bro, don’t feel sorry about being picky. I tried for 8-9 months to make Spidey-Nova work, but ended up getting frustrated with a lot of things concerning them. I’m considering bringing back the team for a certain someone very soon, however… :wink:

I just need a good team built around spidey that works efficiently (even for a newcomer if he practices a lot.) with the exceptions of a handful of characters that I don’t like, and I really want at least one Capcom character and at least one tank.

Does Haggar work at all with Spidey? I’ve played Final Fight before.

Hi, Masterexploder9! I suggest you use Wesker as second. He works very well with Strider, can set up UWT from TAC combos, has a good OTG assist, pretty safe DHC and works well from Spidey’s MS, etc. and is also quite simple to learn. Strider’s assist is not so bad of a neutral for Spidey since it keeps your opponent grounded so you can use Wesker for combo extension.

When you get more and more confident about your chars, your execution and how you play the game, it would be then time to broaden your options.


Everyone uses Wesker though. :l

Like I said, I’m perfectly ok with dropping Strider. I think Dormammu is really cool and I can easily use his :f::h: to get people off of my ass and have them pushed back all the way to the other side of the screen, lol.

So? Does that even matter? You’re already using Spidey.

If I’m alright with dropping Strider, what would be a good anchor for Spidey/Dormammu that’s a Capcom character but not Wesker?

And it sort of does but only to a certain extent. My friend runs Wesker who I play with a lot and I hate it when there’s two of the same character on the screen. It confuses me. So I try to avoid that unless it’s a random opponent. Kinda hard to explain.

Doom works well with Dorm but since you’re not into Doom, Mags would have to be my best bet. Work well with your team also since Dorm’s assist work as combo extender and Magneto’s would be for both Spidey and Dorm’s neutral. Problem however both Spidey and Magneto need a lot of hours invested to get quite effective.

From the Capcom side, Gouki/Akuma anchor with tatsu assist can never go wrong. The Sparda brothers are also really good but like Magnus, they need some devoted lab time. Arthur is also pretty good with dagger assist especially if you can force your opponent to use their XF before you do, but he as some heavy matchup problems.

Edit: You can also add Ammy for the Capcom anchors. Zak Benett plays a pretty sick Firebrand, Dorm and Ammy which you could base your gameplay from. Ammy’s cold star assist however isn’t as reliable as some of the better neutral assists but is provides solid lockdown. She’s also a decent anchor as can be seen from numerous Ammy comebacks by MarlinPie and Moons.

So how about Spidey/Dorm/Akuma?

I can deal with that. I’ve never been much of a Street Fighter person but as long as I get two characters that I really like I don’t care that much. How is Spidey/Hawkeye/Strider? Is there any way Super Skrull works with Spidey in place of dorm? Is Skrull a tankish type character?

Or maybe even Spidey/Akuma/Strider? I’ve seen a team with Spencer/Strider/Akuma (not sure if in that order though)

I use Akuma as my anchor for Spidey Dormammu because it allows me to play my unique rushdown with Spidey. Other good anchors from Capcom would be Vergil, Amaterasu, Arthur, and anyone else with a strong neutral assist for Spidey and Dorm.

Edit: If you really are considering Akuma, then I can share a lot of my tech with you. Do you have XBL or Skype?

Yes I do. Fortunately I play on Xbox 360 and my gamertag is MasterExp1oder6.

The only thing with Akuma is that his moves confuse me a bit but I could try him out.

i love rapid slash

Gah, I’m such a noob. I really want to get better.

EDIT: After watching a couple of online matches, I really like the way spidey says “Doomsey!” When he tags him in. I mean, only one of my friends uses him so I can deal with it. I tried Doom out a bit, and I think I can try learning him. I really don’t like Akuma after trying to learn him.

So how’s Spidey/Doom/Strider?

That’s a sold team you have missiles for combo extensions and vajara to keep people grounded.There’s also raw tag set ups that you get with Parker and Doom and if in the invent that Parker should die you have doom strider witch is a good ass shell i believe Phantasy plays this team if im not mistaken o.O .

I just threw skrull on my team a few days ago and i was wondering if theres anything im missing i know about the a combo extender with stone smite and the DHC from MS into Inferno is good but i feel like there’s something more has anyone tried skrull ?

Im running Parker Skrull Doom btw

i ended up dropping strider for vergil because vergil is easier and vajra is sick but my strider is too bad

some of my old tech

Any thoughts on a Spidey/Viper/Doom, Spidey/Dorm/Doom, or Spidey/Doom/Ammy team?
