One of my favourite SSF4 players MarlinPie with a pretty solid C.Viper/Magneto/Amaterasu team:

Oh look, his opponent's spamming Sentinel and Tron assists. That never happens. Unfortunately, it works really well.
I watched that stream and it was sick when he got started. MarlinPie abused so much in that tournament: exchange resets, magneto infinite, and DHC glitch. When he got in, he was extremely impressive. You all should watch it.
To be fair, Josh Wong is probably one of (if not the) lamest players to play any fighting game.
Ya I love the commentary "yo marvelllllll" makes me laugh so hard everytime
YO MARVELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
If spam works, do it, I guess. Even if your team isn't keepaway, if it's working, go for it.

Sorry to disrupt good people talking about Phoenix, but I just recently picked up the game, and I find that my greatest trouble against people online is Dante. I can never seem to stop his damn combos, even if I advance guard them away, because it seems like even if he hits me once, I get stuck in a long 40-hit ordeal. Anyone know a good strategy against him, or what works well?
The team I typically use online is Taskmaster (my best guy, but that's not saying much), X-23 (my favorite), and then I toy around with Shuma-Gorath, but I switch it up sometimes.

I've been thinking about buying this game but I'm hesitant because I don't want to buy a game pad. Is this game able to be played competitively without a game pad? I know that Shizza plays professionally at SSF4 with a controller, but he's the only one that I know of.
Quite of a few combos can be WAY harder to do without an arcade stick. Unless you can easily and consistently pull off those absurd combos that you will need to perform, you kinda have to get an arcade stick
it depends really. i have been using a regular controller for fighting games my whole life so i'm pretty good at it and i have a fighstick as well which i'm pretty bad at. but i've been playing a lot with my fightstick currently but i'm still at my best with the regular controller.
That's hot. ;DI probably feel too proud about this but yeaaaaah.
Also it's a misconception that a fight stick will make it easier to do combos or get better in general. If you have no real experience using a fight stick, then it will take you at least a few months to get use to the feel of one. If using a controller is too hard then you might want to try a fight stick, but it's not really a guarantee that you'll like it better.
Xaqwais: That's pretty cool!
For anyone that didn't watch the stream, Jwong won two tournaments this weekend with Hsien-Ko/Thor/Chris. This man is amazing at marvel.
And Calciphoce: Don't let Masterful's words get to you. Like I said before, you by no means need to get a stick. There are no inputs that I could find that heavily favored the stick (i.e.comboing into Hands or Legs with Honda/Chun) other than maybe plink dashing. And, as I said before, you have the option for a button set for dash and another set for an atk+special, which can help out your execution a ton. In the end, it comes down to preference and experience.
And you have auto cross-up guard.

Arcade sticks are far easier to input on. The controller makes it downright impossible to pull off some moves. If you plan on playing competitively, it is very helpful to have an arcade stick
An arcade stick allows you to pull off combos most consistently, that's just a fact unless you are god at MvC3. For that reason, those of us who are not abnormally perfect can use an arcade stick to more precisely and consistently pull off combos with the right timing and distancing. With a small amount of practice, an arcade stick can and will likely improve your game significantly.
