For consistency purposes, I just really enjoy having the option at all times. Most Dante players will tell you that it is extremely difficult to stay consistent with him throughout a tournament, and while Jam Session is pretty god like, I can’t always rely on my frontloaded team. Besides I wasn’t saying that its the end-all, I was just asking how to circumvent the issue.
At the very least it really mindfucks your opponent if you don’t even give them the option to play, going for resets or snaps gives them more chances and more hope
Here’s the question though, what’s better, an option that you have a 75% of chance of opening people up with but you have to use meter/XFactor to fully get the kill with, or something that’s weaker in neutral but will give you a 40% chance of approaching people and opening people up with? Doom/Ammy THC also requires XFC(+2 bars) for the kill on the confirm yet it’s a extremely effective tool and is one of Doom’s strongest options.
I think in this game in general was designed for there to be tradeoffs between strength of options and the ability to kill/deal damage with(ie Jam Session/Throws vs a raw poke) . There are exceptions with characters that simply don’t care like Zero/Viper/Vergil who potentially kill off everything at any position on on the screen, but if you design a team well enough you may be able to circumvent some of those damage issues. But overall I’ll take something that gives me a higher chance of opening people up and that’ll give me stronger neutral despite having to use lots of bar or xfactor to confirm off.
Re:magneto
Antstyle uses both forcefield and magnetic blast, abuses throw/j.h of the gods os, flies… sometimes, disruptors like no other, and I can’t block his high/lows. I think its safe to say he’s got the best magneto.
What’s your team you’re running with him and what order?
Rokmode already nailed it pretty good. Just a lot of practice mode with him. Combos, movement, confirms and all that mumbo jumbo. He’s seriously hard to use efficiently and effectively. All I can say is good luck. What exactly are you looking for anyways? I mean as in learning Shuma.
Only thing harder than comboing other people as shuma is completing a combo on shuma
I love randomly flipping out of purification xx chaotic flame
