Best way to get online matches: Do either Arcade or Training Mode, set Invites on (there's an option for Player Matches AND Ranked). Dont try to go through online unless you really want a multiperson room...and without the ability to spectate, they're kind of worthless unless you're with friends online.
I only complain about some characters in lag simply because they have moves/combos that are so easy to hit confirm lag has no influence on their combos. Zero hits like 5 times per attack so canceling in the middle of each one is simple and you will never miss. You can create combos with dante literally by smacking your forehead against the buttons, sentinal has enough hit stun per hit you could fit a quickie inbetween each one, and Ammy you just keep mashing forward and H...then I lose because my characters have a very small hit confirm window for parts of the combo and I drop it. This will fade as I get better, but in the early stages it's very frustrating to want to play technical characters and have everything you learned in practice mode be too risky online to compete with character's who's basics are almost as good as advanced combos. There's not really any cheap lag tactics i've seen though, just a fucked up tier list for online. It's the Setsuka factor.
I'm really at a point I don't know what to do team wise. I'm expecting a lot of nerfs to hit some characters and I'm torn between using what's will work currently, versus picking a team I feel will be strong without the current over powered tactics. The competitive part says find a battery character that can get in easy and DHC to Sentinal Force for corner combo...and the other half wants to avoid him expecting a nerf that will make him not useful in EVERY FUCKING TEAM. Seriously....their is not a single team that can't use Sentinal well. Best assist in game.
Current Team: Dormammu, Doom (missles), Morrigan (battery assist). Centers on dorm playing lock down and spamming morrigan assist behind Homing Fireball Hyper while stocking up for lvl 3 Destruction liberation liberation. I like Doom for the assist and on point, but he doesn't benefit to greatly from meter or dorm assist. I like Morrigans assist, but she's very awkward on point, but is aided by Doom's missles.
Any thoughts on what to do with Dorm/Morrigan (battery) team? I like doom, but I feel I could use the slot better for a more meter abusive character that works with lockdown.
