I've been reading this thread a few times over, and I'm trying to get clarification. Are you trying to find a main 3 that you enjoy or are you simply trying to find multiple variants of characters you enjoy and try to find new things to do with them? Just wondering.
 
Well a team with a certain point that works well.

For example filia fukua bella

Or parasoul filia fukua
Or val bella para

All thats left is fortune but i cant find a team for her really.

Could give a shit less about squigly and double
 
Fortune/Bella is a good duo. You might experiment with sideswitch resets using LnL or Copter, even though I prefer LnL.
Fortune/Parasoul with Napalm Shot is decent, but it's definitely not my favorite. I don't like the lack of a good invincible assist, and Fiber Upper definitely does not make up for that.
Fortune/Double works very well with Bomber, IMO, but just about anything works with Bomber if you coordinate it correctly.
I'd recommend a duo honestly to keep decent damage.

Fortune/Updo/Copter

Fortune/Drill/Copter

Fortune/Updo/Drill

Fortune/Copter

Fortune/Shot

Fortune/Shot would be my choice if you had to run Duo. Fortune/Drill/Copter would be ooout of fucking control tho.

gonna focus on val/bella/para
h bypass/H lnl/ pillar
as for double training i would put her in double/squig/bella
L bomber/dnb/copter

for fortune i will use fortune/filia/para
H fiber or cat slide/H updo/ H shot

after talking with sev i ended up switching to H shot for both filia and fukua in my other main team: para/fi/fuk since it gets the shot out much faster and funny enough makes all of the resets quicker, they both can run with the shot and oppress space so i like it.
 
I haven't watched the whole set yet, but I want to ask.

I see that you struggled against H LnL from the first game with Parasoul. Would cr.mp be effective against it? If not, L Napalm Toss + cr.mp would be good right?

And thanks for posting these. I enjoy watching them.

C.mp+assist would be effective but sticks me in place while fukua runs around. Same with filia.
Due to hitstop its risky to do so.
I could c.mp then pillar if i see a jump in but thats if i get the charge window.

I think mainly in that set vs ath it was more the parasoul vs fukua matchup that kills me.
 
I play Double/Squigly/Eliza and I like it, not because the team works well together, but because of the 3 character's strengths really do wonders.
Personally, I like Squigly/Band/Double or Double/Squigly/Band, but I refuse to play Big Band for personal reasons.

Squigly should be secondary in a trio or anchor in a duo. But again, all conjectures and personal opinions.
 
i'm more interested in team synergy. not strengths. I agree with putting her 2nd in a duo. Its a space that only she shines very well in.

double works so well with squig's DNB so i like that factor. and i think Excellabella would complete the certain team for the simple fact that i can charge both stances easily.

been a while since i played squigly though but i'm eager to learn different teams and figure out how to actually play double.
 
Double + Excabella is insanely good at meter building, and bella gets RETARDED corner carry with H Bomber. I like the team, but I don't like Bella anchor personally. Still I like Car/SBO DHC's and vice versa (SBO/Cat Head is alot of chip).

Edit:I'd like you to think of running Cremation as it makes double's fast falls/jump-ins very ambiguous and allows u to bait reversals and supers as Double. That being said! I switch between DnB and Cremation depending on what characters I play against.
 
Not too keen on using h bomber. Might try m bomber but i might settle on l bomber since it fundamentally makes the most sense to me. But m bomber could work as well. I'll record some sort of set vs eu again and test both options after i record some sort of tech that'll remind me the options

Edit: for the record i am NOT a fan of double anchor
 
all right, hope you find a duo/trio that satisfies your curiosity.
 
so playing double/squigly/bella
Cilia slide/dnb/copter.


My double improved immensely since it was forced to be point. it can do resets and junk and that's the cool part

I might do a write of my main teams just for future references in regards to what exactly makes them work real well.
The thing i will probably focus on is converting from my tear tosses and normal detonations.

NEC is around the corner and I look forward to using my new main team. Do i expect to get out of pools with ease? Nah.
Can i make it out of pools? i'm fairly confident if i'm really playing sharp that day. Mainly NEC will really tell me what i need to work on as a player and what my play is lacking.
 
it's really coincidental that i'm using squigly/bella/double lmao

good luck, twerk. I'm sure you'll make it out of pools.
 
alrighty, i'm not sure what's wrong with my hand but.....I think its time that i go back to my usual training regimen. which is 5-15 minutes in training mode just to warm up my hands for sets.

this is a good thing to do, i notice that if i play without taking a couple minutes to just do a bunch of combos in training mode first to loosen/warm up my hands then i play worse. obviously you think it's effective too since you said thats your usual routine but just seconding that it is good yes
 
Can confirm. I'm sure the reason I play so much better at majors is that I warm up.
 
OKAYYYYYYY

NEC RESULTS!: Made top 16

My main team is def parasoul/filia/fukua

I do not like bella. I'm good with bella, sure but i do not enjoy playing her. I do not enjoy playing her anchor. I do not enjoy her being slow. I do not enjoy her AT ALL!

THAT SAID. I find her valuable in the team sense. So I cannot really drop her per say. So i guess my other main team is fukua/filia/bella and not filia/fukua/bella.

I'm sure people asked me what i think of filia/Fukua/bella. and i think its ok. but is "ok" good enough? in the order i just said. it puts filia in a optimal postion

For now i will work on voice analysis of me vs Lazydiablos in top 16 at NEC. Then get to work on Fukua series in video format. I will continue to work on my main team and make videos regarding that as well.

There's a lot of work to do, but the lovely people i've have the pleasure of entering in my life comes from this game. Thanks a lot for the support guys!
 
Just droppin' in here to say:
- You don't suck anymore! Congratulations! I'm gonna keep reminding myself.
- You are not good with Bella. :^) She's your worst char.
<3

Cadenza: so i was particularly happy i made top 16 and that i kinda did well against diablos. i just need to know the matchup vs eliza better
Mr Peck: it's a weird matchup
Mr Peck: lots of gimmicks you have to know about
Mr Peck: and you HAVE to rush her down
Mr Peck: and if you have assists, you have to have setups to make your throw attempts safe
Mr Peck: to take advantage of her reversals that arent throw invincible

This is really important advice.

If you were to play Filia/Para point with Drill / M Shadow, you should be getting in throw range a lot of going for grabs when the assist starts up.
You'll beat every ground reversal besides level 3.

Normally Eliza can just instant jHP and counter hit you into 19k but that's why it's important to have the assist behind you to force them to block.

Ok so next tourney is winterbrawl X and topic of practice for this time around is.......

BEOWULF!

How the hell do i do neutral with this guy?
Whats the cool stuff that this character provides?!?! Stay tuned and find out!

Team for now para wulf ?? Might try fukua anchor

Might run double beo para.

Who knows! What i do know is that l chair assist is a cool
 
why the FUCK are u trying BEOWHAT
Connotation aside, I think Beo is interesting and would like to gauge placement in terms of difficulty, value to the team and other things.
I also like labbing things that people never really lab and put it on youtube. I hope you're not meaning to say that learning beowulf is wasted effort though :p
 
learning beo is wasted effort
this little hop sprint shit ain't worth it :^)^)^)^
 
So it turns out i have a fortune team that feels more or less right?

Its fortune/beo/para

Using h fiber or slide/h chair/ l shot.

Gonna take some time before i evaluate where exactly beo stands but its fun thats for sure
