I always use Psylocke. Here is why it's a good idea:

1) Psylocke plows through Colossus.
2) Psylocke goes straight through... you can jump and make 'em afraid and they end up blocking her
3) She sets up supers better.
4) She's hot.

Also, when playing pixies, I like Iceman.
A little variety is the spice of life. I mean, Colossus, Colossus, Colossus... gets boring. What helpers do *you* use?

I think the best helpers are: (In no particular order) Colossus, Psylocke,
Lou, Devilot, Cyclops.

Yeah, Lou is great... plus he makes a moderate shield for you.

collosus is probably the best helper for the fact

1) he is an anti air attack
2) comes out quick (even though he moves slow
3)his multi-hit gives you plenty of time to pull of a super for cheap
combo-especially beams
4)fills up a lot of the screen-- psyloche can be easily jumped over.

Psylocke is instant.

So can Psylocke.

So can Colossus. You must be thinking of Sentinel.
The point is, once every single person uses Colossus, you will find ways to get around his ass. Psylocke will take Colossus out
and keep on moving. While Colossus is probably the best helper in the hands of a master, he is by no means invincible.

By the way, w/Psylocke, or maybe Colossus, bring her/him in and then jump. See if they try to jump over 'em.

I cannot believe you can be forgetting one of the best helpers....Michelle
Hart! Why? Well, first of all, she comes out fast and negates any other helper
there is! Goodbye Lou, Sentinel, Collosus, Psylocke....they're all toast.
Second, she does significant chipping damage. Third, she's the only helper who
actually works against Gold War Machine. And fourth, she's comboable! Okay, not
into beam supers, but when used with quick pixies like Wolverine or Strider
she's pretty deadly.

[PanzerStar]

I like using Lou and Michele Hart. Lou makes a great shield, and Michele Hart
makes pretty good cover fire and some chip damage. Plus, you can use them more
than eitherPsylocke or Colossus.

Didn't SpiderDan once say that you can roll out after the first hit of
Colossus? I've done it once or twice but can't do it upon reaction. Thor is
actually pretty cool too. His biggest problem is that he comes out way too
slow.

If you do the roll motion IMMEDIATELY after being hit out of the air by Colossus, you will roll and avoid the rest of the hits.
This is a life saver. It's imperative that you learn this. I do it almost every time.

Have Thor come out as the enemy lands from a jump and if they know anything, they'll duck, which is your cue to jump in and upset
their defense.
