I think I'm gonna try Wolverine(Barrage)/Nova(Shield)/Jill(Arrow Kick) for now.

Those desk crossover counter combos are pretty neat. Sucks that none of my teams have any use for Joe's bomb assist even with that knowledge.

I bet there's something...it's the kind of assist we'll find new things for years from now.
I don't approve of anchor Jill. Or Nova. Why is she third?
Yeah he's not a great anchor, but when the first two characters benefit from Unibeam assist his best spot is sometimes last. I play Haggar/Deadpool/Iron Man, I'm not sure what other order I could play those characters in to make it work.

Probably. It would also mean that I'd have to not play Joe on point, which is where he shines the most IMO.

Cause Arrow Kick is :3
Anyway, I'm still messing around. Team building gets me sidetracked really fast. I really want a Thor/Spencer/Vergil team too, but I dunno if it'll pan out.
The concept of "crossover counter combos" didn't even enter my mind until I saw that video. Seems really impractical (wastes a meter too), but if someone could pull one off during a match... hype.

Yeah, seems mainly for style purposes, which is why I won't touch them for now. There's probably a practical use for them in there somewhere, though.

Speaking of crossover counters, Berserker Slash seems pretty good.
Avoiding assists is the only one I can think of, and even then it's a huge gamble because the situation will always be different.

Remember when you convinced yourself that you'd stop being a team whore, and stick with Magneto/Sentinel/RR forever from then on? You convinced yourself, but no one else here!
Anyway, I think one of Jill's best features is THCing with a hyper that lets her do mix-ups during lockdown. Million Dollars, etc.

But Magneto/Doom/X-23 is so good! And the Wolvie stuff is just for fun! I promise!

I'll be up for matches later tonight if any non-GB PS3 owners want in on some 1v1.
I just got grabbed out of Vajra H for the match during the part where I'm invisibly tracking the opponent to dive kick.
#AllofmyBibleThumps
Invincible/extremely fast cross counter + Joe's bomb waiting in the neutral sounds like stupidity waiting to happen.

Picked the game up again for a while and I can do X-23 and Wesker's combos as well as the day I stopped playing a few weeks ago, so that's good. Unfortunately my WWE Brawlstick is kinda feeling loose and mushy, so I may have to look into another stick, or replacing parts (which I have no idea how to do).

Fix your connection and we'll play, GB. Panda's connection was pretty much my limit tonight. Any worse than that and I won't bother.
Edit: Also, I completed my first Spiral Swords loop tonight! I think I actually looped 3 in a row once against Panda, and ended in the Lunar Phase for extra damage on the last one to kill. All smart-like and stuff, I feel self-proud. My Vergil is still ass overall, though.
Anyone else want to play a nice, long set?

GGs Karst!
I should have really stuck with Ryu, since the whole point was to get matchup experience vs. Vergil with him, but man I wanted to win some games lol.
Karst do you have any tips for my Ryu? I have no clue what to do against that Vergil. My strategy was to pray you fuck up then pray I don't drop my combo haha.
I didn't want to call out drones to often because I was afraid of the happy birthday, I probably should have just tried it to see what'd happen.
At one point I was mashing dp in between block strings thinking to myself "PLEASE SOMETHING COME OUT PUHLEEASE" lol.

So here's something a little funny for anyone playing Dante/Nova (Gravimetric Shield?) against Sousousou. Call Assist & do Twister or Million Carats, instant cancel that into Devil Trigger then TK Vortex in. If you feel like playing the devil's version of Kid Icarus Uprising, go into flight as Dante and chuck Air Play all day.
I wonder if flight mode Air Play + Hidden Missiles is as hilarious to behold as Soul Fist + Missiles.

GGs, and fuck Hulk. I didn't swap back to my main team because I knew that Hulk would destroy my main team, too, and it just feels better to lose with a sub team. I know you know what I mean, haha. Hulk should have a slower walk speed...
I thought your Ryu was really good. I think Sentinel is your weak link. I didn't feel very threatened by him. It was better when you pressured me at the start, since with your team pressure leads to pressure. Same with my team, but Ryu has the advantage against Vergil at the start IMO. I was surprised how easy it was for Vergil's s.H and s.S to whiff against Ryu at normal jump height.
Ryu's dp.S has a waaaay larger hitbox than I thought. I've never been hit by it before. I think one time I was like 2 character lengths away and got nailed by it. Really surprising.
I think more drone calls is a good idea. You might also consider doing the Hyper Sentinel Force -> Phantom Dance DHC into XF2 sometimes. Sentinel is kind of hanging out there by his lonesome.
A Pretty Panda
fuckin' called it, man
Yeah I've gone back and forth on who gets what spot with Wesker and Sent in the 2nd and 3rd spot.
If Wesker is second I get a worse DHC if I want to kill something and I have to use anchor Sent which I hate, but I get Wesker with drones.
If I put Sent second I can kill something with a DHC and Dark Wesker, but I have to work harder to get a hit with Sent.
So I figure I'd put Sent second so on the off chance I do get a hit, I can get a easy damaging combo with Wesker assist. Also I just suck when I use Wesker with drones. It's probably because I'm used to using Wesker with Vajra which is much easier to protect than stupid Sent.
This would all be much easier if I didn't hate using Sentinel.
Or if my Sentinel didn't suck haha.
If Wesker is second I get a worse DHC if I want to kill something and I have to use anchor Sent which I hate, but I get Wesker with drones.
If I put Sent second I can kill something with a DHC and Dark Wesker, but I have to work harder to get a hit with Sent.

Oh, you definitely have the right team order. Just consider DHCing Wesker in for XF2 + drones sometimes. Then Sentinel has a purpose.
Also, I guess Dormammu does get something from Vajra. If you call Vajra right when you throw Dark Matter, Vajra connects. Between the wall bounce and the hard knockdown, you have time to get 3 Dark Spells. If you happen to have 1 red stored, you have enough time for 2 reds + 3D0C to OTG into Dark Hole, Chaotic Flame.
Edit: Oh, and Vajra is still BS. I was playing this guy, Xavier, and he would call Vajra while I had him locked down in HS Vergil spam, and Vajra would hit me. -_-
Edit2: Panda, how much does your Ryu bnb do? The one where you power up and end in the hurricane.
Edit3: Why can the average online Strider not kill a character in one combo, but I just found 900K for 1 bar in XF3? Oi

It's amazing how you can play a character for hundreds of hours and learn something new still. Dormammu can in fact get something off of a superjump height hit!
So where is your home?
Whore.

Depends on what the combo starts with. With drones and an L it does 780k, if I start with something like cr. M it can get to 850k.

You know the team needs a third, right? ;-)
Disappointing. I was hoping for 1 million since it costs 2 bars.

Yeah I need to look up combos for that super. The one I'm using right now is just a modified combo from the mission mode.
He should be doing much more than that. He can do 1.25 mil meterless if you hit a standing opponent. I forget how much he should be doing off grabs, but it's enough to kill 1 mil health characters IIRC.

Damn, really? Without Ouroboros, right?
My combo was something like this:
c.LMHS, sj.MMH, qcf.L, j.H, qcf.L, j.MH, qcf.L, s.S, sj.MMHS, qcf.AA
Works from anywhere. What's the 1.25 mil combo, and why don't any Strider players know and use it? Haha.

Also, I don't know if I ever said this, but I'm glad you're back to the old avatar GB. It just feels right.
Edit:
Who do you all think is Jill's best support character? I'm leaning toward Chris for the SMG fire, which is great for getting her in, and him having one of the best hypers for her to dance around during.
Dante is definitely a contender.

Dante a contender for everyone. He has three assist that is serviceable to all types of characters.
Which assist? What kind assists/teammates in general does Jill like?

X-23's a nice lady, but you can't really call her home, you know? Not the most stable of people, and I'm looking for some consistency in my life.

This is what you have gotten into.
Guy has some dirty stuff with Chaos Dimension on incoming characters. That move and Inferno have to be the two moves I get the most hype for hearing a character do. I think anytime I've seen either done in a crowd on stream the audience generally yells along with them too. I know everyone does for Inferno still.
Also this might help you breakdown the typical corner combo I see used for him.
Yes. Thanks man.
