General Strategy
Storm is a character capable of both incredibly powerful rushdown and the most effective runaway and zoning in the game, even independent of the teammates she is paired with. This means her gameplan is very fluid and can change to fit the team's composition or the current game state.
Roundstart
Runaway
If you superjump and hold up to slow Storm's descent, you can mash j.HP to build a lot of meter very fast at an altitude that's very hard for most characters to contest. You can make it even harder for the opponent to stop you by using Typhoon (j.236K), Vertical Typhoon (j.63214K) and Lightning Sphere (j.214P) to stop your descent and hit opponents who try to superjump up to you. Varying when you use your float and airdash can help mixup people trying to catch you. Airdashing upwards near the top of your superjump will push you above the screen, giving you extra time to build meter, while letting go of up as you fall to drop faster can let you touch the ground and superjump again before the opponent ever gets a chance to stop you.
Of note is Storm's Lightning Attack (XHP+LK), an omnidirectional dash attack that she can do up to three times in a row in one jump. Not only can this move be used to go further upwards, but using it to surprise attack an approaching opponent will let you hit confirm into Lightning Storm (j.41236PP) and with extra meter and certain DHCs (Sentinel Drones) this can even lead dead characters.
Fly (j.214KK) isn't as powerful of a option, both in runaway and pressure, as it is for Sentinel because Storm has a slow startup animation tied to her flight that she can't skip. But this isn't that big of an issue due to her already having an overwhelming amount of options in the air.

Picking Teammates
Storm is incredibly malleable so she can fit into many teams as a great character in her own right. Her fantastic DHCs and pretty good assists let her support almost any team you put her into. She benefits from having an anti-air assist (Captain Commando-B, Cable-B) as she can struggle to stop others from getting into the air on her own and assists that support her rushdown (Sentinel-Y, Cyclops-B, Psylocke-A) help her quite a bit.
