You see the question,I personally take Sagat and Blanka,but my 3rd character varies(Ryu,Hao,Terry,Rock,Joe,Rugal,Camy...maybe Vega/Balrog in future) in C-Groove.My players ordering varies to,but I begin usually with Blanka or Sagat.
i play in N groove mostly but sometimes in C my best team is Kim (1st), Kyo (3rd) and Either Joe,Terry or Ryo (2nd) either way Kim goes first , and kyo goes last.
N-Groove to my death.
The team: Blanka, Terry and either Yuri or Athena... the girl getting the R2 for the boost in strength, since Blanka and Terry can hold their own at R1 against ANY R2.
Depending on the order my opponent selects characters will determine if Blanka or Terry becomes the final character in the lineup. Yuri/Athena usually goes first to test out the waters and see just how skilled my opponent is... but sometimes I place the girl second in the lineup if I have a "tier friendly" player.
Dan, Kim, and Sagat is my best team I would say. I usualy use either the N or K Croove and will use C on occasion.
Terry, Rock, and Geese in the N Groove is another one of my favorite teams. I usualy ditch Rock when I play the Ratio Match and use an R1 Terry and an R3 Geese.
I use Terry mostly for Counter-Offensives, Mai as a straight up Offensive and Geese as a power move bad-ass. Sometimes I'll switch it up by changing someone with Yamazaki. Either way, I rock with Geese <img src="graemlins/mrt2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mr T]" />
fighting order (regardless of what my friend picks)
1. King -mainly cuz i can combo with multi hits with her....she has enough speed to slowly whittle down a power characters life, and everybody else i'm dead even with her.
2. Ken or Terry (ken when i don't feel like playng defense, terry when i feel like being more defensive)
3. Sagat or God Rugal - power for cleanup duty. if i go with a slightly "lighter" team i'd use either version of iori.
i use other chars. as well but primarily SNK (with the exception of Ken and Sagat)
I pick for R1 x2 (2 R1's) Kyo, Gouki, Terry, Cammy, King, & Mai. For R2 I pick Iori, Terry (sometimes), & Vega (M.Bison; sometimes). Grooves I use are A-Groove (sometimes), P-Groove, & N-Groove.
i play either C or S groove with Joe Higashi, Ken Masters and Terry Bogard, my order depends on the order of the team i'm up against, i sometimes swap round and use Rolento, Ryo or Yamazaki as well.
C or A groove(just for the fun of A) with either Geese, Kyo, and Ryo...Or....Yamazaki,Iori, and Joe
An occassional Sagat, just for the "I bet you're pissed cause i'm beating you with only 3 moves" affect....Nice kickz at a gathering <img src="graemlins/mrt2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mr T]" /> <img src="graemlins/mrt2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mr T]" />
