"We must get back through the portal and CLOSE IT!" Doctor Strange Team Thread

So it’s clear now that Strange and Ammy are bffs over every other *insert character name/Ammy? lol

Well really the only thing I really makes them bff’s is that THC trick and how they can end a combo doing that THC loop. I tried to come up with a midscreen trick with Strange/Ammy doing EOA + Cold Star then Teleport M.

-Wzzup, guyz, i’m a Shuma main, wondering if Strange can have some tech with the use of mystic ray, since i’m trying to learn Strange, he’s kinda hard but since doing fast qcmotions is my best, i think that i can handle it. I will probably use Shuma(mysticray)-Strange(bolts)-Ammy(coldstar), so, if someone knows some synergy about this team, i will be thankful if you share it…-

You really can’t go wrong with a fullscreen beam assist + Ammy in the back anyway. x/Strange/Ammy is a very versatile and underrated team shell imo. You can stick almost anyone on point and it’ll be a solid team. You won’t even lose to lame teams that badly because we can now convert SoV DHCs from SJ height already. I’m pretty confident that the team I’m running now, Mags/Strange/Ammy is top 3 best Strange teams.

I nominate MorriStrange as 2nd team in the top 3

I’m trying to create a xxx/strange/Phoenix team I would use Ammy in the second slot, but strange at the beginning of the round isn’t really good. Neither is morrigan tho… Maybe frank? Ideas?

I’d either use Strange + horizontal assist/Phoenix or replace Strange altogether. Strange is iffy if he’s not throwing out random SoV.

I completely understand that… I’ve been fooling around with Chris and hawkeye on point with strange in the second slot. They look interchangeable, and I can rushdown with Chris better than hawkeye, although I feel as tho I might be able to get better mileage out of hawkeye’s assists. Ideas? Plus these guys are great beginning of the round characters…I think that Chris might be better…

So my team is Chun Li ( LL ) My favorite character ever <3 / Doctor Strange ( Orb thingy wtf I can’t remember its name…) One of my favorite marvel characters/ Ammy ( Either bloom or Ice )

I saw some awesome footage of Ammy using Slow with the traps and doing an insane crossup/unblockable ( I said unblockable cuz he did it many times and he the person he was fighting didn’t block it when he did it ).

Dorm / Strange / Ammy is pretty solid against dedicated zoning teams. And i have to nominate Modok/Strange/Ammy for the top 3, sounds like the perfect team to deal with both heavy rushdown (wolvie, haggar, zero, etc) and AAA zoning teams (morridoom, dorm-doom, hawkeye, etc), just wish i could play Modok u.u

RT [S]@[/S]GOOD_NEMO “IMHO, how to form a team - Point: Mags, Spencer or Zero. Middle: Doom, Strange or Dante. Anchor: Phoenix, Vergil or Wesker.”

There you have it, guys. lol.

Shuma can end his combos against a grounded opponent with a quick L stare into HMR, if done right the super should pick them up into the stare. If you dhc at the correct timing into SoV, the bombs will explode causing soft knockdown and strange can jump and get a flame loop. Builds good meter after the dhc too so usually you can get another SoV at the end.

-Yeah, i know that tech, that’s why i plan on always start with Shuma, but what i need is tech at using mystic ray for Strange, in order to do combos and stuff. Btw, you have a good anchor Strange, Foo…-

What about strange/doom/hawkeye ?? I’m thinking of picking up this team, what assists would work? Dhc? Combos ?

I played that team before. Here’s some tech you could probably try out. Strange/Hawkeye/Doom is probably a better order though, because Hawkeye backed by Hidden Missiles is a lot more annoying.

Wow pretty sick resets! Gonna try it out thanks

Yeah, the video is old, but Strange has come a LONG way since then with the advent of the Faltine loops (and its variations) so the resets are probably gonna come in handy. Strange won’t mind the damage scaling from Missiles assist much. Feel free to steal; I haven’t seen anyone do this stuff in a match yet lol.

I have been fooling around with many different teams, all centered around strange and I have come up with Strange/Vergil/Hawkeye. Vergil works great with strange allowing him to go into flame loops from odd hit confirms and anti airs and also works as a solid keep away assist. The addition and placement of Hawkeye in the anchor position was a tough one but I thought that his fast horizontal assist was a major benefit to both Strange and Vergil. Also the discovery that sword loops can be dhc’d into after a spell of vishanti via super jumping and delaying the helm breaker slightly sealed Vergils position at second( usually Vergil dhc isn’t necessary but it’s good to have the option). Would like to get feedback on the order and viability of this team. Thanks to all the Doctor Strange players on this forum you have helped me out tremendously by your comments. Long Live Strange

DREBY PLS (BibleThump)

tell me how. And if you can, show me how to sword loop after an SoV. I’ve been trying to do this since forever.

Maybe I’m looking at the wrong side of things. I’ve been trying to adapt this, without success:

I tried making a video of the DHC but my crappy webcam made it so it wasn’t even watchable. But anyway, this is a pretty simple DHC but with All things Strange it has to have proper spacing and timing. For example the final M mystic sword has to be done very late to have the character low enough for the DHC to work. Also the Helm Breaker has to be done at the peak of Vergils superjump to connect. Thanks to all the players on the Dr. Strange forums I appreciate the hard work. I think you were just approaching from a very advanced standpoint where sometimes just the simple stuff works.
