deadpool I guess. Dante/strider work great together but task and strider, not so much. Maybe Akuma?
drones or missiles
I know i’ll have Dante for sure, and have been pretty sold on Tasky, but not completely against replacing him. What about Viper?
Yeah man. My friend uses viper dante strider. It’s a god like team.
You could run akuma, taskmaster + akuma is pretty dope, free shield skills all day since tatsu makes it safe while giving you a really easy hit confirm. It also allows him to combo off his counter. Dante + akuma is sick as well.
I used to play that team, well I ran task/dante/akuma, and while I didn’t play it long enough(goddamn taskmaster is boring) I definitely saw a lot of potential with tasky + akuma.
Viper/Dante/Strider? IMO is the best team in the game, it is going to be my main team as soon as i learn Viper (though it could take a while…).
Thanks lads, I think i shall do viper/dante/strider. There’s already a few blokes playing akuma here and pretty much the rest of the cast, but strangely none of those three. Guess everyone prefers vergil now.
Would that be strider vajra and dante jam session assists?
Naturally! 
Jam session and vajra both hold em down to get mixed up. Plus focus attack plus assist on an incoming character is a pretty cool gimmick.
Dante/Dormammu/Magneto. Can this team work?
Disrupta is gdlk for both characters
Dark Hole gives Dante useful combo extensions, esp off of air throws
DHC into Stalking Flare is great for creating instant offensive momentum
Three top tier chars is a great team 99% of the time

Work very well methinks, ranmasanma plays 2/3rds of that team with haggar on point as opposed to dante, and he made top 8 at NEC so yea, not a bad team at all. The only issue’s I see are, first off your playing two relatively high execution characters in dante and magneto on the same team, I hope you have strong fingers cause them boys are gonna put you through the ringer, the second issue is a lack of a strong DHC between dormammu and magneto. Your gonna have to learn dormammu’s corner carry teleport combo or you’ll be losing out on a lot of damage off every hit.
I have good execution.
As for DHC into Magneto I know that MastaCJ used to jus Chaotic Flame into Tempest. I got a strong feeling though that this team is gonna work very well. Thing is though, I’m trying to see if Dormammu can help extend Dante’s combos. I mean, Dark Matter helps me in terms of pressure and clearing up screen projectiles such as drones, but how will Pillars stack up with Dante? I guess I’ll try all this when I hit home later today. The assist option is the same with Dante(Crystal for OTG or Jam Session for better mixup?)
MastaCJ used Wesker assist for fraudulent corner carries though, Tempest will not link after a chaotic flame outside the corner. To actually corner carry with Dorm you need to use his Dark Matter Wallbounce combos(other assists will extend, but I don’t think Disruptor does outside the corner).
GomuGomu actually uses this team and posted a few combos here:

I se Felicia with them, it is the best low assist for Dante and allow whim do very great mixups, is my 2nd personal favorite assist for Dante, Task is godlike with Jam Session and with Rolling Buckler he becomes even better thanks to being able to easy relaunch or combo after an unblockable setup, or do a lot of different mixups; i suggest that you put Task on front and Dante on 2nd, that way you can abuse Jam Session and the THC unblockable, and with Dante/Felicia you don’t even need assist for extensions thanks to being able to reset your enemy a lot of different times, the other character would be Sentinel since Task/Dante with Drones becomes retardly cheap, you can use also Spencer/Task/Dante , those 3 would be the best choices IMO for the team.
Another good option would be akuma. Tatsu is fantastic for both of those chars.
Still in a bit of a character crisis. I love Dante, but my main problem is damage. I’ve always loved characters that hit like a truck. The problem is that I really don’t want to use Doctor Doom/Sent to help Dante’s damage output. Seems like the meta game for Marvel is that you need to be able to ToD a character. I like what Strider can do for Dante in terms of extending combos and damage, but I’m having trouble deciding on a second character. I thought about Ryu, but I don’t know how good his project is when it comes to helping Dante out.
Any thoughts?
As long as it is not of a throw you should be able to kill all the relevant characters(barring Spencer and Task) in one self-sufficient combo with an appropiate DHC or a character with a good TAC, this nigga comes with the best assist, the best THC and one of the best meter building combos(2 -3 bars in one optimized combo) , it is fair that his damage is not ‘‘great’’, Vergil,Dorm,Doom,Nova,Zero,Viper,Spencer,Task,Ryu,Akuma,Strange,Sentinel and some others can boost the damage via DHC or TAC.
I am not a Missiles player, but the chip damage you can do with DT and that assist is retarded, and even more because it cannot be advance guarded 2 chip setups = character killed, Dante/Morrigan/Doom is some serious retardly cheap team, with Morrigan you can be DT all say spamming thunderbolts and vortex, i think is the cheapest of all my teams at the moment in terms of keepaway, though it lacks good rushdown pressure, but for that i have my Dante/Dorm/Sent who is more balanced.
For all those Dante/Dorm players i have been bussy with finals these 2 weeks, but finally i am free so i will add DHC extensions(MD>Chaotic Flame) and some stuff with the duo these days.
Yeah, I know why his damage isn’t all that great. I’m not really bitching about it or anything, just a bit frustrating. And yeah, I’m thinking about Ryu or something. Just need to tweak with it a bit. Thanks for the response.
I’m not a huge fan of keep away, but if I have to I could probably use Chris/Dante/Akuma. Seems to be somewhat effective.
Why not Chris/Dante/Strider? It’s Chris’s most optimized team and it’s actually really scary. I think X/Dante/Strider is better than Dante/X/Strider due to the support value Dante gives with his DHCs/THC/Assists.
The issue with Ryu in this game is that Akuma is better in every way from support/mobility/mixups and zoning. Ryu has better normals but that’s it. Ryu doesn’t work with Vajra at all either due to his crappy OTG capabilities. X/Dante/Akuma is also an amazing shell and can work with so many characters. Dante in XF2 you can avoid his damage problems by using the XFC extension after million dollars and getting free mixups on the incoming character.
I kind of gave up on Chris. I don’t know, maybe I’ll give him another try or something. I didn’t even think about Chris, lol. I know that him and Dante work very well together (Jam Session is incredibly strong for Chris and Boulder Punch can help extend Dante’s combos.) I’ll have to figure out something with Vajra when it comes to Chris.
Yeah, I know. I was noticing that. Sucks, haha.
Thanks for the response.
