So i made this vid showing that Strange can actually hard tag and do his fof loop basically with any point character as long as that character have hard knockdown stuff. It is also a slight preview for the vid im working on
The timing is not that strict, the trick is to place that grace M in the exact place where Strange will be after the hard tag. It fails if the grace is placed in the corner or if the hitbox of the explosion whiff. Also works with 2 graces L, not with 1 according to my tests since apparently its too slow. Other good characters might take advantage of this, like Firebrand and Spencer.
So after of a DHC or TAC kill it seems that the right way to play might be to set up a grace M, then EOA, then hard tag to the point character.
I couldnt make it work with the hard knockdown that Thor has with sparks L Magneto style so i dont think Magneto can do it u.u
Messed around with corner DHC into rings with a few characters, so apparentlyā¦
-Storm corner DHC into seven rings from hailstorm into FoF loop works. (Time it so you DHC right before she finishes saying āIceā)
-Vergil corner DHC into seven rings from maximum Vergil into FoF loop works. (Inconsistent when tested, the trick is to DHC and have Vergil hit one of his projectiles on the way down, thus slowing his fall speed)
-Strider corner DHC into seven rings from animals into FoF loop works. (Works nicely actually, a potential fix for his damage output issue?)
-v.Joe corner DHC into seven rings from cannon into FoF loop works. (Needs v.Joe to be at about SJ height for it to work)

This combo has me convinced that Strangeās endgame function might be to convert throws/short combos into 100% combos while building hella meter. Just like I theorized before. Donāt need to risk TACs getting broken when you can just build 2 bars for [S]DHC glitch[/S] Strange 7 Rings whiff setup and get a guaranteed kill, provided your execution is up to snuff.
Letās try to work on the possibilities and see how many 7 Rings whiff setups are possible-- I know Magneto/Strange is definitely one (Hyper Grav, SJ, Tempest > SoV), since Iāve been using that for a while now. Just recently added Doom assist in the back to crack 1.1m off Magsā horrendous throw scaling with double SoV.
Yeah, because Strange on point is butt. No, really, he sucks on point and gets beat out by ANY rushdown character like Felicia, X23, Wolverine, Mags, Viper, Zero or anyone good really.
I think if heās at the two and can safely come in whether it is off a spell of vishanti when killing someone or off 7 rings, he can begin his loops and begin to set up his defense/offense set ups. Plus, his assists are good so you want to utilize them and hes an ass anchorā¦
well after about maybe 2 weeks, i finally got the FoF loop down, ranging from mid-screen to corner and corner to corner. whats so damn dumb/good about FoF loop is that graces are not required to land it, i can pretty much land it using L. Mystic sword confirm. Sure it dampens the damage but not by much, i can still get around 860ish K combo. now all i have to do is work on my strange Defense and zoning and my Strange will be ready. Thank you men of the Dr. Strange forum
