havent played strange in a while but when I did this was my team… did fairly well…but I just put him as my anchor on my viper team for his Y assist

What are the special properties on bolts? I thought for some reason that if they hit an air opponent the opponent floats. And how would you use them best? Like what would a character use to take advantage of them.

I don’t really play Strange :S

First hit of Bolts is known to just have an absurd amount of hitstun (no special properties) while the second one seems to be a regular (medium?) hit.

Tenboss kept using the same Palm +Rapid Slash tactic until it worked o.O

Has anyone tried Strange with Magneto?

I think it’s mazio’s main team

Mazio, what was that video you had with your old Strange/Dante/Doom team named? Looking for tech with Doom/Strange.

It’s mystic vortex iirc. Look out for my DDD’s as well, they are always Strange/Doom/Someone else

I was looking for Doom combo’s using a Strange assist. I’ll check Doctor’s Damage after this video.

Hey guys, I’m mostly a lurker but I decided to come out of the shadows so that I could maybe get some help? =D

So I recently started using Cap (Charging Star)/Strange (Bolts)/Morrigan (DH) and it seems like a pretty good team. Basically, Cap acts as a battery and does… well, Cap stuff haha. Bolts are used for cartwheel mixups, overheads, etc. One cool thing I found out is that Cap can combo off of a back throw using bolts, which dishes out some decent damge. Plus it can extend his combos in the corner. Cap/Strange THC works out surprisingly well. I thought SoV would elevate the opponent too high for Hyper Charging Star, but I think you have to be close to the opponent when you do it. I haven’t really used it much.

All the meter that’s built up is great for Strange to use to punish people with SoV or to use Seven Rings if he had to.

Now here’s the problem: Once Cap dies, Strange is left out in the dust without a helpful assist. I don’t think Strange is absolutely terrible as a point character, but he’s definitely better off with at least one assist. Most of my wins have come from derpy XF3 Morrigan bullet hell stuff. Since Strange died quickly, she ends up burning the rest of the meter with Astral Vision and the occasional Shadow Servant.

I’m thinking I should toss Morrigan out since Cap can build a decent amount of meter without the assist. I’m not sure what character could provide them both with a useful assist and still be a good anchor. Perhaps Ammy (Cold Star)? Although I don’t know how to use Ammy, really lol. Doom’s plasma beam benefits both of them, but he’s not the greatest anchor imo.

Or should I just keep the team the way it is and level up my Strange? I mean, I’m not exactly bad with Strange, but there’s always room for improvement. For one, I could learn to do FoF loops more consistently. >.<

I’d appreciate any feedback! =)

People tend to forget Morrigan got two more assists. Go with the ghetto gtfo assist

Most of the people on this forum swear by Strange/Ammy.

Never!

I can see Vergil, Ironman and Haggar being endgame assists for Strange in addition to the others mentioned.

Vergil sets up FoF loops and 1 full screen of wall carry.
Ironman is the best beam assist for him as it keeps them standing or keeps them in perfect stun state for Alzarath loops.
Haggar is the only good “get-off-me” assist in UMVC3 and a you can get loops off of it.

Caveat of course being Ironman and Haggar being sub-par characters.

I believe Tenboss has one of the best Strange-centric teams. It looks very effective.

EDIT: Question, I’m really interested in Strange, Vergil, Ammy. Do you guys think Strange absolutely needs a beam assist or would throwing things on screen + coldstar be enough lockdown to set up self-unblockables?

Ammy can do it for Strange imo, Holli.

But after what Drebin told me and the kind of damage I can do with Strange/Vergil, my teams have become Someone/Strange/Vergil

It is just insane how easily any hitconfirm leads into a ToD in every single character.

Fullscreen beam assist does wonders for zoning patterns. So much stuff on screen. You can literally make use of every single one of Strange’s projectiles without worry that way.
