I play RR on one of my teams and didn’t even know there were different versions of Mad Hopper.

I’ve run into a bit of a snag trying to improve my Zero team and seek some advice to alleviate this.
Now, I used to run Zero/Sentinel/Wesker and now I’m thinking Zero/Vergil, but need an anchor, and as I’ve learned Dante, Strider, or Doom make good teammates for Zero, however, I’m not very good with Dante or Strider and my Doom still needs a lot of improvement. So, can anybody make any other good recommendations?
Get better with Dante, Strider or Doom.
Going to another character isn’t going to help you in the long run.
So, Zero/Vergil/Strider or Zero/Vergil/Doom are probably my best bets then I assume because, unfortunately, I just can’t use Dante.
And besides Rapid Slash being the obvious assist of choice for Vergil and Vajra for Strider, which assist should I choose for Doom should I run with him? And any particular assist that I should choose for Zero by chance?
I would recommend against trying Doom anchor, because 1) You won’t learn how to play him properly and 2) Hes probably the most frustrating common anchor to play as, even moreso than Sentinel. I don’t even think Doom is worth running with Zero unless you’re willing to run Sentinel or Amaterasu in the back ( Maybe Strider too ), too many Zero teams are left with a lackluster shell once Zero gets tagged, and it makes Zero seem much more lackluster by effect.
Zero/Vergil/Strider I also can’t agree with, both 1st and 2nd slot characters have a rough time converting on Vajra, although its still a great assist.
If you’re trying to play Zero, I don’t see “I can’t play Dante” as an excuse though, Dante is very user friendly, moreso than Zero even. Not that i’m even recommending Dante, but still, he is by far the best teammate Zero can have.
But given the options, Zero/Doom/Sent, Zero/Vergil/Hawkeye, Zero/Vergil/Magneto, are probably your best bets.
That’s exactly why my old team of Zero/Dorm/Doom was pretty nice mind, but not skank. Zero gets offed you got arguably one of the strongest shells left.
Doom may not be one of the best anchors in the game but he still provides more than enough utility for 2 characters to warrant having him on anchor- he’s not lost on his own by any means, I mean- it’s not anchor Haggar.
I actually think anchor Haggar is pretty strong.
But thats just cause DAT PIPE owns my soul, free.
What can I say? I’m just not very compatible with Dante.
Zero/Vergil/Strider is not a good team IMO.
I didn’t actually pick up Dante until two weeks ago but since I’ve picked him up, I can’t see myself running any other character with Zero. Jam Session just does fucking everything. I don’t think Dante is that user-friendly at the beginning but after you learn bold cancelling he gets 10x better since standard starter hit confirms whiff depending on space ie. stLMHS. Running Zero/Dante/Magneto now and I don’t know why I haven’t rolled this team since the beginning.
that team is gdlk! I feel like zero/dante/mags is the best overall zero team in terms of balance. plus you get dante + disruptor AND an awesome anchor in magneto.
Yeah I ran Magneto/Zero/Akuma for most of vanilla so I’m pretty comfortable with both characters but my Dante is total ass. 
I think Zero/Dante/Magneto is stronger than Zero/Dante/Doom and Zero/Dante/Sentinel, if only for the fact that the latter two are not very good anchors while Magneto is an amazing anchor while supplying 50/50 mixups with EM Disruptor assist…
Even though I think Zero/Dante/Magneto is one of the best Zero teams, even better than Zero/Dante/Doom, I still think until now Team Hunters is the best team for Zero and Dante. Too bad you have Sentinel anchor.
I agree that Drones assist is the best assist to maximize Zero and Dante’s potential, but with how random this game can be and how you aren’t always going to be the person who lands that TOD first, a powerful anchor should be more highly valued and I wouldn’t run Sentinel as an anchor anymore with how the metagame is evolving.
Fixed your post.
I disagree. Team Hunters might be an optimized team for Zero alone but I definitely don’t think the sparda brothers help each other as much as magneto (or doom/hawkeye) could help either of them with a horizontal beam assist. As soon as Zero dies, both Vergil and Dante have to play EXTRA solid to keep up and pull out a win. I witnessed that myself when I watched mihe/sam’s club at Final Round (his dante anchor struggled alot or had to pull out an amazing clutch read to pull out a win). But I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion 
I still refuse to play Dante (even though jam session is so good :*[ ).
Team Hunters is Zero/Dante/Sent, not Zero/Vergil/Dante
Wait…why is it called Team Hunters again?
Maverick hunter, Demon hunter, Mutant hunter? Something like that, not very deep into the lore of capcom or marvel
