How to compose a team

[Custle]

I have always problems with teams. Here are few variations of mine from 2003.

1. King (L), Tizoc, Ralf
2. Ralf (L), Robert, Joe
3. Terry (L), Ash, Tizoc

XI teams:

1. Terry (L), Kyo, Ryo
2. Ryo (L), King, Yuri
3. Iori (L), Kyo, Shingo
4. Athena (L), Ash, Kensou

Ryudo, not bad. Terry has less use for meter than Ralf, so you might want to swap them up though.

Thankx Remzi I'm definetely going to practice with those 2 when i go to the arcade either today (friday) or saturday. Since the cab is usually empty i should get alot of practice in besides its only a quarter ^^.

kupo !

What do you think about :

Team 1 - 1.Chin / 2.King / 3.Takuma

Chin is so much more effective in position 2 and 3 due to meter+drive.  Otherwise you gotta drink to compensate for damage.

Pretty much. Drinking seems to be somewhat suicidal though.

There are some setups for "drink" like jump  or  so it's pretty safe and a lot of character don't have tools to punish on reaction a chin who is drinking, the thing is just don't do it against Raiden a 44s ^0^

I would recommend putting Shen 2nd or 3rd, Shen's combos with Meter or HD is too good.

[ZeWickedOreo]

I'll try it out! :D thank youuu! :D

For what it's worth, 4leaf reported that Leona's HD combos in the console version was only a tiny bit weaker, not a huge nerf.

even better
oh and i see u have vice in ur team 1s or 3rd in my king leona vice team ? where would u put her ?
mmm after ur answer i think  i ll stop to talk about this dont want to go OT

I would put Leona first, King second, and Vice last.  If your Leona is stronger than your Vice then put Vice first and Leona last.

i would switch leona and king with king she can work from the inside in and leona is all inside

Ryo, Terry, Takuma in that order. 

They all seem pretty meter heavy in order to get the best out of them but I wanted opinions on the team order from people who know what they are talking about (i.e. not  me).  So yeah, I was thinking of swapping Ryo and Terry's place but from what I've seen having Terry with meter should make the opponent wary moreso than a Terry trying to build meter, no?

I dunno how I missed this post.  All very strong characters, Kim tends to really excel with meter so he might be better suited for 2nd or third.  Kyo builds meter very well (less so in console) but he still deals good damage without it.  Terry also excels in the 2nd or third position better (however Kim takes advantage of the meter more so give priority to Kim for meter usage IMHO) as well but he's not bad at first.  Ryo is solid by himself and can play any position and so can Iori as he builds meter fairly quickly.

Your whole team is somewhat versatile.   Terry and Takuma could be switched or Terry and Ryo could be switched.   They all work pretty good to be honest.

Sweet! I knew I had to put Kim as my 2nd order because I just realized that not was good at building meter, but also good at rushdown games as well. So my team is pretty good alright. Oh and yeah, I just picked up playing Athena because I've heard that she is good at in-the-air games is that right?
