Time to go to work, guys! Dante team building thread

What do you mean by save them with viper yet?

Uh, basically are you at the point with Viper that you can just freestyle your way to the ground and relaunch, or do what ever it is that Vipers do. My apologies, I’ve never seen you play but I’ve seen varying degrees of viper play from only being able to convert if they hit me grounded, to being able to TOD off of any hit they manage.

Lol tbh I started practicing her exactly 1 hour and 40 minutes ago (and like some seconds from when I finish this sentence) and she’s pretty easy lol. I’ve only got a mil from 2 bars building 1.5 starting from neutral but yeah I got pretty ham when it comes to damage. I’m pretty sure I made the most practical 900k for 1 bar j:s: combo with dante in corner so I think I can top a mil for 1 bar with viper eventually just not today. As for throws I’m gonna watch some marlin pie and get some new tech.

yeah shes really easy, thats why theres one viper in the WORLD that can play her neutral game… right.

in terms of combos, sure, until you learn staircase for different char weights

Oh lol, I meant in terms of combos. I always forget to mention that and then I get flak.
Nd masa my combo works on all chars and I think is more damaging.

I need an opinion on these point characters between these two. I would post in their specific forums but since Dante is my fave plus i think people here are knowledgeable, not to mention if I post in their forums i think they would be biased. Spencer or Magneto. Second and third is always vergil, dante or dante , vergil with whatever assist I feel like using at the moment.

Easily spencer. Mags is not as good of a point as before in my opinion. Probably better on anchor then point nowadays. As for spencer he has great synergy with dante and vergil because he can cancel unsafe moves into bionic arm and then dhc to devil trigger. Any combo should be a tod and with vergil on the team you can get even better damage from his assist. Yeah. I am kinda biased because I play spencer but I think the pros of point spencer with the brothers outweigh the pros of point mags with them.

But the thing is. I’m a combo whore and easily Spencer is the better choice for the things you listed. I played spencer for two weeks at the end of last month and he is in fact “the dude”. I started playing mags yesterday before school and incorporated the emp and hypergrav loops into his combos down to an fairly decent extent and it just looks awesome. Can’t get over how awesome it looks. Hopefully it’ll blow over in some days. . Out around fifty matches I played my friend, I had trouble starting combos with mag so yea… So you’re saying spencer is better for my particular team? because I had some trouble trying to put dante’s assist in mags combo come to think of it.

If I make a team of Morrigan/Dante, who do you guys think would be best on anchor? I was thinking of Strider or Magneto.

Both Mori and Dante really benefit from a beam assist like Mags. Strider is good too, but Mori really can’t capitalize much off of the asisst, and you already have jam session. One of my favs is Morrigan/Dante/Wesker, however. Neutral game isn’t amazing but you have mixups and unblockables for days. Also, anchor Wesker.

If I were you I’d use weasel shot with spencer. You might not be able to get that relaunch at the end without jam session but its not the most reliable and you kinda need the mixups and lockdown. Rapid slash is more of a combo extender for spencer.

Thanks for the input.
Any more input on why one over the other from anyone else?

Felicia, Ammy, and Doom are also really good choices.
Strider is amazing for Dante (and vice versa, should the need arise) and is good for controlling space with Morrigan, but she can’t get anything of a Vajra hit. Disruptor is great for both of them, for both zoning and mixups. If only it was better at extending combos it would be my go-to assist. Felicia/Rolling Buckler is probably the best for rush down. Ammy is great with Morrigan, and probably with Dante but I haven’t experimented much with Dante + Cold Star. And Doom is duh (and incredibly boring, IMO)

after reading viscant tier documentry about tier I headed here to try to make the best viper, dante, strider team. strider assits with 3 volcanos is awesome but I wanna add viper assits into the combo. I haven’t played marvel since street fighter x tekken came out but I can still do a lot of siesmic wave with viper so dante tiger-knee motions seems easy for me.

why dont you just play magneto anchor with dante and vergil interchangably on point… way better team than spencer.

On hit the opponent should wake up into losing half of their life in AV chip. It’s stupidly broken and arguably better than missiles.

Cold Star is amazing, but thanks to Dante’s scaling being horribad and no more amazingly broken DHC glitch tech with Ammy it isn’t quite as godlike. Anytime you get them to block Cold Star Dante gets an IAD 50/50 and can also do gimmicks such as: teleport > air dash back to same side.

Stinger + Cold Star > Teleport is a left/right 50/50, which if blocked gives Dante the aforementioned 50/50 anyway.

You get combos of air throws with it. You can also use it to replace Prop Shredder by doing S > charge shots > calling Ammy during them > (Cold Star juggles them) dash up Hammer. Builds a bit more meter and is less finicky with HSD (It’s a fine substitution for Prop Shredder during Hammer/j.S combos where Prop Shredder wouldn’t work)

You can also use it to combo off of normal throws in the corner, but meh.

Also, a little while ago I notice that Stinger + Vajra > Reverb Shock leads to full combos. You don’t even have to do Prop Shredder, you can Volcano > MH > Killer Bee > wall bounce etc. afterwards. On block it’s pretty easy to react and cancel into Fireworks.

Well guys I think it’s about time to make a team that consists of my favorite characters so what do you guys think about Magneto/Dante/Jill?

May i ask why its better? I can fair pretty well without a beam assist if thats what you mean.

Switch Jill and Magneto then you will have a good Jill team.

Its arguable.
