Best modes for VHF MS?

Just wondering what the best mode is for MS on VHF?  MS signals may be strong, with Doppler, but fleeting.  

I assume WSPR would be useless as it takes too long. I have no idea about FT8/4 in such conditions. Maybe there is a mode that copes well in these conditions? 

Overnight I was on 50.280 MHz MSK144 RX and this certainly is popular in Europe. This was the Perseid meteor shower. 30 stations from Spain and Italy 🇮🇹 to Sweden were spotted on 6m RX. See map.
