I fought a Nova/Frank/Dante dude the other day fucking if Nova touches you he builds a bar DHC’s from NovaForce super into whiffed frank’s super OTG picture and call jam session and gets another picture for instant level 5 frank with nova’s overhead ground bounce assist and jam session behind him…shit was dirty.
Frank and Dante might end up being pretty damn good BFFs in this game. The two characters just have so much awesome synergy together. I like how if you drop a combo, Frank will easily bail you out with his get out of jail free shopping cart.
Not sure if this has been asked already but if I wanted to run Team DMC, what would be the best assists and best order?
Im thinking Crystal for OTGs, Rapid Slash to push enemies back on block and its useful for certain combos, and Low Voltage for cross-ups but it seems slow and the combos after it hit in a weird way
I play Team DMC as Dante(Crystal)/Trish(Low Voltage)/Vergil (Rising Sun.) Crystal for the OTG and because it takes up a good amount of the screen, hides Vergil’s teles, and is great for incoming mix ups. Low Voltage for mix ups, and Rising Sun makes a nice get off me if you learn to time it right. There’s no invincibility, but it works in a way similar to hammer does now.
How does dante/task/spencer sound?
Has anyone tried Dante/Wesker/Strider?
I’m runnning Vergil(Judgement cut), Trish(Peakaboo), Dante(Weasel Shot). I’ve tried just about every combination for this team and this setup seems to be the best by far.
Team DMC has a lot of ways of being played depending on who’s your point character.
While Crystal Dante is a good choice as both Trish and Vergil like an OTG assist, the question is how do you get in? Low voltage is pretty slow and kinda ass for mixups. Rapid Slash is good but is hard to confirm if you don’t have a teleport. Also Trish comes with Peekaboo which is a much superior assist than her 2 others both for mix ups and over all use.
So you gotta decide between Crystal and Weasel Shot for Dante. Weasel shot is amazing for opening people up and doesn’t scale, also does decent lock down so you can set up shit like Trish tridash, Vergil Round trip mixups, etc. Crystal is a OTG, and both Vergil and Trish get a LOT of mileage of an otg assist as well as decent for mixups.
I tend to go Weasel Shot when I’m playing this team.
Currently, I use Dante on point with Trish at anchor because Dante is my best character plus if my execution is good, he can TOD anyone with a DHC to Vergil when near the corner. My assists are Crystal/Rapid Slash/Low Voltage. Basically with Dante, I cover his teleports with his own projectiles and if Im close enough, I’ll just do mix-ups. So I basically just use assists for more meter/dmg during a combo. Vergil has Round Trip to cover his ass as well as Swords if Im desperate. Crystal helps with using Round trip during a combo which leads to Swords madness. I havent played with Trish much.
How is Peekaboo used as an assist? I tried using it in combos in Vanilla and they would just pop out and using it on its own seems to be more of a defensive thing.
Can you please tell me the notation for that Dante combo?
Since it’s invisible you kinda put it on the screen and dance around it, and eventually players fall into it letting you get a free combo, if you’re trying to play more defensively Peekaboo+air play+hysteric= Too sick. That’s how I use it if I put her on Peekaboo, but that only happens if I’m playing someone I know is really rushdown heavy.
how is dante/dorm/sent for umvc3?
and what assists should i use?
I run Dante/Dorm/Ammy for my main team. Most people think Dark Hole is Dorm’s best assist for helping Dante get in, but I use Purification bc it’s a big fuck you to anyone who likes to jump in. For Dante, I would use Weasel Shot bc it’s good for lockdown and unlike in Vanilla, Jam Session doesnt help Dorm get relaunch combos like Weasel Shot does. Then there’s also the fact that you can kill someone with Million Dollars and DHC into Stalker Flare to instantly give you an advantage over the incoming character. If in the corner, you can place a Flame Carpet right after the recovery of Stalker Flare and tag Dorm out for someone else to really pressure your opponent.
Never played Sent but Im sure Nini might have stuff for him.
Well he pretty much does a standard Dante combo, but in the corner, does cold shower>stinger>Sky Dance>Hard Tag>THC>Level 5 and i’m fucked
Sent anchor is kinda sucky but w/e. Weasel Shot or Jam/Dark Hole/Drones is pretty good. Basically, any hit you get with Dante is a guaranteed dead character if his health is less than 1M due to Dark Hole allowing double prop shredder into more meter/damage gain, plus mashable supers meaning that Million Dollars>Chaotic Flame does a retarded amount of damage.
I honestly don’t like anchor sent, because Sentinel with a lock down assist is REALLY scary(like 50/50 mixup scary) but he’s still alright
WTF? I never knew about this

chun-li needs as much assistance as she can get her hands (re:legs) on. she receives it here.
…
Been recently pouring more time into UMvC3 and decided to put Dante in the mix with my other two main characters that I have been playing since Vanilla. Was thinking Taskmaster (Horizontal Arrow)/Dante (Jam Session)/ Spenser (Slant Hook). I was thinking pepper my opponent with Jam Session covering the vertical.
i’m running nem/iron f/dante anchor any suggestions?
Is Dante/Sentinel/Ryu a good team?
This is actually the team I’ve been working on, but with Strider Hiryu second and Amaterasu third. I’m kind of following the formula of Clockw0rk’s team except with Dante instead of Doom. I like the idea of Hiryu having meter and X-Factor but still having a reliable assist, and I don’t think Amaterasu is a terrible anchor either.
What I’ve been wondering is what I should do with Dante’s assist in the event Hiryu or Amaterasu are in. Jam Session doesn’t really help Hiryu since he already has great lockdown, right? I don’t know how it’d help Amaterasu, but there’s probably something. What worries me is if Amaterasu gets killed early and I have no assist to help Hiryu with mixups. Should I switch Dante to Weasel Shot for something like that, and would Weasel Shot help Amaterasu with her mixups, as well?
