I’m not sure what the correct term for it is but i like to get in my opponents face and try and combo as much as possible. Keep away is the complete opposite of what i want to do basically. Usually i start off with a Dante weasel shot, then teleport behind my opponent with vergil and try and cross them up so I can combo.
My biggest problem in general is people who use sentinel drone assists and things like that and who run away and shoot stuff at me (Usually Hawkeye players). Ideally i want to get the biggest most damaging combos possible.
Crystal is way too slow to get a combo off an air throw or knockdown j.S with Jill, but not slow enough to use after 263A. I like running Jill (Somersault)/Dante (Jam Session)/Doom (Plasma) or Magneto (Disruptah). I’ve been using Magneto more lately, but that’s mostly because I’m trying to learn the character, and his assist is amazing for Dante. Jill first is better IMO because she builds mad meter, which Dante can do fine on his own, but it doesn’t hurt to have some stocked up for Devil Trigger. Jill also gets more out of Dante’s assists than Dante hers.
Jam Session provides both decent lockdown and AA assist, and extend combos with Jill after a launcher (as long as you haven’t used the ground bounce yet). Weasel Shot is also a good choice, but horizontal axis is already covered by my 3rd, and Jam Session is just too damn good lol.
thanks for the help! i’m gonna go ahead and assume strider should be vajira assist and my anchor so he can use his uroboros lvl 3 xfc if available right?
sup guys… i need help finding the 2nd character of my team being dante(jam-weasel)/strider(vajira) dante on point and strider as an anchor. i can play doom/mags/sent/vergil/wesker i need a 2nd who dante can benefit from. what do you guys think is the best choice? or should i change the team order to something like strider/dante/doom or w/e… really apreciate some help
A team I want to run (in all black costumes obviously, fashion before function) is Dante/Vergil/Dormammu. So a typical Battery/User/Anchor construction.My concern with Vergil is that he can spend that meter so effectively that if shit does hit the fan and it’s up to Dormammu there may be a lack of resources to successfully launch a comeback. I feel like the strength and weakness of the team is that it has two great anchors. I also wonder how well Dormammu plays with the sons of Sparda in general. Any feedback is much appreciated.
I currently run Vergil/Dante/Doom which I feel is super solid, but not quite cheap enough. Probably why I’ve got a Viper/Dante/Strider team in the works. A team which I feel could totally run this game down the road.
What assists should one run with Team DMC in the order of Vergil/Dante/Trish?
I know crystal is good for extending Vergil’s combos, but I really like Weasel shot and Jam sessions for their ability to keep the opponent in place. As for trish, I’m not sure which to use between the air trap and projectile.
Air trap is a defensive assist and mixup tool, Low Voltage is your run-of-the-mill projectile. If you want Crystal for combos, take LV. If you’d rather take Weasel Shot or Jam Session, take the trap.
I’ve been trying to run Dante/Vergil/Hawkeye, working on this really nasty set-up for a reset involving Rapid Slash assist and Grapple. Wish I had recording equipment, I may have to settle for busting it out on someone on-stream at the local tourney (if I get that lucky).
It’s a matter of opinion. I run both Low Voltage and Peekaboo, depends on who I’m gonna fight. For Dante I always go Crystal, and Vergil switches between Rising Sun and Rapid Slash.
Yo shine, to be honest, Ive always liked zero and had him on my team in vanilla. So Im gonna go Zero/Dante/Vergil. But I gotta figure out what assists.
Sounds good. Dante or Strider can lock people down with their assists so you could also try weasel shot for a vertical assist.
I’m new to Dante and I’ve playing around with a Viper(seismo)/Dante(jam session)/Trish(low voltage) team.
What do you guys think? I’m not sure if I want Dante second or as the anchor.
Do you think dante(Jam session), Sentinel( Sent. Force charge), Akuma( tatsumaki) is a good team? cause one of my mix ups here is when the opponent is cornered you call assist akuma and teleport to hammer. and the reason why i pick Sentinel is because after Bold cancel teleport from stinger then hammer, you call Sentinel’s assist during cold shower.
I’m using Zero(Hadangeki) Dante(Jam Session) and _________ I really don’t know who my third should be. I’m thinking of Viper(Kick), Tasky(UpArrow), Hawkeye(UpArrow) or Spencer (SlantGrapple). But IDK who to decide on. Any Ideas? I am open to all suggestions except Wesker lol…
