[quote name='corrosivefrost']Thanks for the write up, Jimbo -- just need to figure out who to use... Probably CapCom/Blackheart | Cable/Storm | Iron Man/Magneto.
Can you use Strider with people other than Doom for zoning?
[/QUOTE]
I would say its a bad idea tot use strider without doom, however if you're absolutely intent on it doing Strider:variety, Sent ground, and capcom AA is a decent team because you can lock on the ground and maintain a solid keepaway AA at all times. However, using sent drones effectively to setup strider orbs is much harder than just chipping to death with doom.
of the six chars you posted I would say a good team to start with would be BH/Cable/Capcom. Otherwise you could sub storm for BH or cable (wouldnt recommend this one though)
I would stay away from Magneto and Ironman for now, especially IM because of his execution and spacing requirements for even being close to competent with him.
I'd be happy to help you out along with Jim after tomorrow (midterms).
Also if you want to see me try to play Strider Doom and lose horribly theres this

Theres another vid of me playing him using Cable/Sent/Clops where I do much better too, if you're trying to pick up that team.
