yea but u were zoning in other matches too specifically i remember 1 against a magneto, i wouldnt advise that especially since he can jump over you and he can hit u his flight mobility is too good. And i noticed ur Dante crouchs a lot other then that solid gameplay
Won a tournament with my Zero / Dorm / Dante team. Zero / Dorm is really awesome for assassinating phoenix. Just wait till you get 3 bars, snap her in, rekkoha > stalking flare X factor >stalking flare and that bitch is done. I actually killed this guy’s phoenix so much in grand finals that he switched to a different team lol
Also vs Dark Phoenix, if you can corner yourself as Zero, wait for them to start their rush and then x factor > genmu zero, it works really well if she doesn’t have a super yet, and you don’t have to worry about her crossing you up.
You surely mean “wait till you have 4 bars”, because you also have to snap her in.
How many times does it happen that a non-phoenix team has 4 bars before a phoenix team reaches 4.5?
Congrats btw.
Ekkh entered my first Marvel ranbat of sorts (hand’t played in over a month mind). And the glaring weaknesses for my team of Zero/ Dorm/ Doom is that covering Zero as he goes in is rather difficult when you’re fighting airborne fighters like Magneto or people that love to jump everywhere. Doom’s beams are practically wasted. On top of the Dorm assist can’t do anything in those situations either when you’re trying to chase down people that love airborne keepaway.
I need to reasses and figure out which assists will a) Help me get in and b) Keep me in.
I’m thinking Akuma and Ammy. Akuma for expansion and left right mixup and Ammy for lockdowns and mixups from that. But I love Dorm too much as an individual char I just can’t seem to get the most out of my assists any more.
Problem with Tron and Sentinel is I actually don’t wanna play them they seem far too flawed to actually work for me at the moment. Unless Sent’s is just that good and more often than not I wouldn’t be getting to him anyway? I dunno =/
Really need to hit the lab after tonight’s tournament.
Dante - a. He’s pretty much the answer to all of life’s problems.
But in all seriousness, if you’re having issues dealing with airborne opponents Jam Session will really make your life a lot easier playing as Zero.
Jam Session covers your “keep me in” criteria for assists as well. You can keep Doom if you like for the beam and you’ll have a solid team.
I like Ammy with Zero, but I can’t recommend both Ammy and Akuma on the same team as Zero unless you like playing Team Glass.
Pretty much this. Jam Session gives Zero everything he really needs. If I could have dupes in Marvel 3, I would play Zero/Dante/Dante.
Actually, I would play Doom-b/Doom-b/Doom-b…
No you won’t, you can’t betray the Zero Squad.
You wouldn’t exploit infinite hidden missiles? I know I would. Or maybe Phoenix/Phoenix/Phoenix.
Dormammu/Dormmamu/Dormmamu
Stalker Flame>DHC>Stalker Flame>DHC>Stalker Flame>Stalker Flame
Phoenix/Phoenix/Phoenix
"Just snap that bitch in"
Hmm yeah Dante really is the only one that covers those bases. Will see who works best with em right now Doom’s my really weak link just having trouble with his mobility and resets. Anyone tried Taskmaster in his place?
I mean you could run dorm with purification or task with the up arrows if you really wanna control that space but I can’t say either assist is all that great. Dante and Zero have quite a bit of synnergy. The cool thing about dante’s is that it controls the space better than the other two, while being faster, providing lockdown, and providing combo and cross up opportunities all in one assist.
Ammy cold star is great once you’re in but it’s not all that useful of an assist otherwise. She’s also glass like Zero so have fun losing 2 characters in 2 combos lol.
Right gonna stick with Zero/ Doom/ Dante for a few days see what’s what. Reason I didn’t go for Zero/ Dante/ Doom was cos I feel Doom benefits a fair amount from Dante’s Jam Session and my Dante right now isn’t up to snuff (just yet). Also the DHC synergy between Doom and Zero is awesome, or am I missing a trick with Zero > Dante?
DHC Trick starting from Dante I can’t do just yet, once I can I might slide him into 2nd for TACing then DHCing glitching (if at all possible)
Mind Dante’s Jam Session alone’s been doing great for me sorts out Wolverines and Magnetos and with the general on screen mess you can cause with it can lead to some silly mixups for Zero.
for Zero > Dante you can do Rekkoha > Devil Trigger > acid rain combo, and in the corner you can follow-up the acid rain with otg :df::h:~:h: into :f::h: wallbounce > volcano~beehive *2 > million dollars if you have the meter.
for Dante > Zero it’s trickier but in the corner you can do Million Dollars > Sougenmu before the last hit > lightning loop. (aside from the DHC glitch)
Wow that DHC from Zero to Dante is working a real treat right now. Cheers.
Wrong topic I guess but is there any secret/ certain technique to shooting lv.1 busters with zero for zoning? Can’t seem to get it down consistently enough. Got the lightning loop down, may even try it at the next tournament.
Right now my team is Zero/Dante/Taskmaster and it’s working out really well for me.
Taskmaster’s horizontal arrows might not control space as well as Doom’s beam, but they provide better hitstun and they don’t scale damage anywhere near as bad.
Plus DHC’s between Task/Dante are much easier than Doom/Dante or vice versa.
Task on point shooting arrows while using Jam Session as cover is, as my friend said a couple days ago, “fucking retarded”.
Yeah, press the button and then let go of the button 
In all seriousness, what aspect of this are you having trouble with?
Can’t get the second one out fast enough after the first seems to be too large a gap between em. Though comparing to match videos people manage to get streams of em on screen <_> Should I not be trying to hold the button down or something?
I run task he is Great for mixups and dhc synergy, you can rekooha to arrows for free. task can dhc into zero with jump down hyper arrows to rekhoha at the right height. Task gives zero a safe way to get in and mixup a setup i like to use is after knockdown call task and then dash behind my oppenent as they start to recover it works like 80% of the time i try it. I have also found that tk lightning plus arrows is a good mixup too. Zero can also aid task by extending combos or giving him extra screen fillage especially with sougenmou…also the anti-air is great for protecting task while he spams horizontal arrows.
I think taskmaster is one of the best supports for zero (hell anybody) in the game definitely try him out
i use zero/tron/sentinel. and i do pretty well with it. i get owned by keep away teams though (keep getting own by deadpools). but but tron and sent assist help zero ALOT from getting people off u and getting in. You can also DHC trick with tron in the corner with zero. Both tron and zero are my fav. characters, sent is just in there for the assist and extended tron combos.
i need to learn dante to help against those keep away teams
hey guys. I’ve been using Zero/sent/haggar, as said before, i use sent/haggar in all my teams. I’ve been way to dependent on those two especially haggar’s assist. It seems that my sent/haggar is the strongest factor of my team because of the hard pinning and covering up of sentinel’s weakness… However, i do want to change it up and also not become too dependent on them two.
Zero is the character i want to seriously main as my best, i would like to know any good team suggestions.
Zero/Deadpool/Dante (or swap deadpool or dante with task) sounds like a cool team. I’m very good with deadpool also, so i have two characters that i am skilled with. The only problem is that i don’t like the assists deadpool gives to zero.
I’ve been thinking of building a zero team using the following characters, Ironman, deadpool, dante, dormammu, doom, and ryu. Zero/Sent/Akuma is something that sounds good too me, but the problem with that is the team generally having shitty vitality, so ryu maybe would be better. What do you guys suggest, and what should be the assists?
Zero/Dante/Deadpool is my main interest; if it’s good that is. The damage factor of that team kinda scares me a bit.
Zero/Dante/Deadpool is pretty solid. Deadpool can DHC glitch into Zero and Dante and Dante can DHC glitch into Zero. Damage potential on that team is pretty high. You can easily switch from rushdown to zoning. Isn’t deadpool gun assist kinda like a beam assist letting you get in and keeping people out when you wanna zone?
Zero/Dante/Akuma is pretty solid as well but is purely rushdown oriented. Team JPN.
Zero/Dante/Sent is pretty balanced imo and is what I would play considering the characters you like.
Vitality shouldn’t matter though, the plan with Zero is to kill them before you get hit, hit them with a welcome mixup and kill the second character.
