I’m currently trying out GRider/Felicia/Morrigan… With Morrigan in the back, I’m up to 5 bars hella fast.
Trying out Ghost (Spire), Nemesis (Clothesline?) Akuma (TATSU MATSU), it seems pretty damn cheap. They may have supposedly nerfed Akuma but GR and Big Nasty don’t seem to give a damn. The DHC from wheelie to the Biohazard Rush is a little tricky but not too bad, and adds some hefty damage. Tatsu assist works great against zoning teams, planning to go online and see how well it does vs teleporters.
Chain of rebuttal is very good.
I’ve been messing a lot with different ways to extend GR’s combos while still using assists that benefit his gameplan. The damage output can be very good if you find the right combinations (Nemesis comes to mind) - it’s just a matter of balancing combo ability with strong anti-pressure / zoning assists. I’m going to keep experimenting, but ideally I’d want to find a team where I can do a double assist extension to break 900K off a DHC.
I posted a vid in the combo thread using a dormamu assist and dhc. easy 800k+
Oops, meant 900K+! My GR / Dante / Nemesis team can pull ~920K off a single DHC cause of the double assist extension.
Put Ghost Rider as my second. Weird, I know, but I’ve got Cap. America as my anchor, and his Shield Slash assist is great for extending combos after L. Hellfire OTG. Thanks to Cap’s L. Shield Slash assist OTG-ing now, I don’t have to worry about OTG assists, so it works out just fine.
Oh man I thought my 800ks were good - but then since you said you could do 920k I just had to figure out a new combo!
So here is my new combo! Two assists and a DHC. I use Dormamu and Doom. Squeezed out 931,900 damage and 1.25 Meter was gained during the entire combo.

I actually have the same exact team, but without using Doctor Doom . I use Frank West because of his shopping cart assist OTG when I use Chaos Bringer and link it into his hellfire. Good stuff.
I’ve been running Ghost Rider, Thor, Sentinel
I like using Thors mighty smash to extend combos. Sentinels drones with GR are really good imo, as they help pressure and keep away, and if the drones connect in either the air or ground, GR gets a free combo.
Nice dude!
Also, @ Atomsk, it’s possible to extend your combos using Sent drones. It’s a lot like how you extend with Dormammu’s assist, where you call him as you’re doing the OTG Hellfire. Just a little something in case you needed a bit more damage
Geesh I’m having hella issues fighting heavy projectile users and people with flight modes (extra bad when they can do both [Trish -_-]) So i’m switching Doom to missiles instead of Beam. GR can pretty much cover 70%ish of the horizontal screen, missiles can help cover the vertical, that plus it seems to set up nice combos too. Tron I’ll try Gustaff Flame for projectile defense.
When ever someone is out zoning/running away from my Rider I dhc to Strange. Kill the brid who gave rider trouble then tag in rider.
His j.:h: will hit almost all of them half of the time. Most people expect it to whiff, almost as if you were doing something wild attempt at hitting them. If you do run Missiles, I’d probably: dash :qcb::h: xx:dp::atk::atk: to finish them as they fall
My team is Nemesis(shoulder + rocket) / Ghost (Spire) / Doom (Beam)
So far it’s been working well for me, Doom’s beam works great for both nemmy and GR and spire can extend nemmy’s combos.
After playing a bit more, I’m liking Sentinel. He compliments GR extremely well, both offensively and defensively. The slow-moving drones come from far back, covering his blind spots and allowing you to stagger your j.:s:s. It’s extremely easy to confirm off of drones; and drones are able to extend GR’s combos as well.
The third slot for should go to either Storm or Dormammu imo. Their high damage DHC is perfect for ending Hellfire Maelstrom.
After a few failures last night, and some thought over it, I switched out She-Hulk from my Team for Hawkeye…and I’ve never been happier.
Clint’s Scatter-Shot perfectly adds damage to GR’s combos or chips. Plus Hellfire Maelstrom DHC’s greatly into Gimlet, and vice-versa. Also, it gives me a reason to keep using Blaze’s Spire assist to keep off rushers. And to think, I was gonna go with Taskmaster…
anyone tired Dormammu’s purification assist with Zarathos?
I have, it’s decent, would be better if it was the medium version of purification. Dante’s jam session would probably be better but since Dorm is my favorite/best character I stick with him. btw this is my first post so hopefully I didn’t screw up the reply.
Naw you did fine old chap, welcome to SRK yo.
