-Added an extra Tag Team Attack for Tina + Bass
(Thanks to Adam once again)
-To remind everyone to read carefully what has already
been written. I've received e-mails about additions that were
already in this guide. Make sure you understood what is on this
guide before e-mailing, read it 3 times if you have too.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Legal:
Blablabla, I made this…..
Bah this isn’t copywritten in the first place and I doubt that any Guide on
GameFaqs is. Copywriting, AKA a patent, requires cash to protect your
creation and hardly anyone would waste their hard earn money on a patent
unless there’s profit to be made. Like anybody else who made a Guide
here, all I can do is ask for you not to put it on your website unless you
ask permission and that you do not modify it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The purpose of this guide:
Dead or Alive 2 for the Arcade introduced us to the DOA Tag Team mode
that allowed to select two characters and switch between them. By pressing
all three buttons at the same time, you can execute combos with your two
characters.
But there’s also two other things you can do in Tag Team mode: Tag Team
Throws and Tag Team Attacks. Tag Team Throws do more damage then single
character throws while Tag Team Attacks are even stronger.
This guide will give you the list of the Tag Team Attacks that you can
execute with all possible character pair ups.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commands:
Tag Team Throw: Backward + Free + Punch + Kick
Tag Team Attack: Forward, Forward + Free + Punch + Kick
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes:
-All character pair ups will perform Tag Team Throws.
-Some character pair ups will do a two way Tag Team Attack, meaning
that either character can start the Tag Team Attack and it will work.
- Some character pair ups will only do a one way Tag Team Attack,
meaning that only one character may start the Tag Team Attack. If the
other character does it, it will result in a regular Tag Team Throw.
-Any other character pair ups that are not listed will only do
Tag Team Throws even after performing the Tag Team Attack command.
-In the Tag Team Attack list, the character listed before the plus “+”
is the one you need to start the command with for the Attack to take place.
-A one (1) after the pair up means that the Tag Team Attack can only
be performed one way while a two (2) means that it can be performed
two ways.
-All Story mode characters that are placed vertically (up and down) to
each other are True Tag Teams (Kasumi and Hayabusa for example).
They will always perform a two way Tag Team Attack.
-Tengu Does not have any Tag Team Attacks, only Tag Team Throws.
Being the case, I will not mention him/it again in this guide.
-Hitomi and Bayman are not a True Tag Team, they are unlockable
characters. Bayman and Leon have all of their Tag Team Attacks in
common with the exception of a few.

Extra Tag Team Attacks:
These attacks (which mostly involves Bass) are executed by doing an
"Hadouken"/Fireball type movement:
The same order rules apply to these Tag Team Attacks:
Bass + Tina
Bass + Zack
Bass + Bayman
Bayman + Bass
Tina + Bass
Leon + Bass
Leifang + Jann Lee
Jann Lee + Ein
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tips:
Generally, it is better to pair up characters that can perform a two way
Tag Team Attack. In a worst case scenario, pair up characters that can
only do a one way Tag Team Attack is better then choosing a pair that does
not do a single one.
Like when doing a regular throw, wait for your opponent to block before
doing either a Tag Team Throw or Tag Team Attack.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extra Intro and Finish Poses:
Every True Tag Team has a special Intro (before the battle) and Finishing
(after the battle) pose. Some other pair ups will also have a special
Intro and/or Finishing pose.
Hayabusa + Ein (Intro and Finishing)
Helena + Leifang (Intro and Finishing )
Bass + Leon (Intro and Finishing)
Bass + Bayman (Finishing)
Tina + Zack (Intro and Finishing)
Tina + Leifang (Finishing)
Jann Lee + Ein (Finishing)
Zack + Bayman (Intro and Finishing if Bayman makes the final blow)
