She’s very interesting as a comic book character.
But there are far more “interesting” choices from a gameplay perspective.
Black Widow should be the primary new female fighter from Marvel. Very easy to copy/paste a lot of MVC3 Jill’s moves and make them fit on her, minus the teleport dashing
Black Panther could make up the loss of Wolvy as a claw based fighter, though of course it’d be MUCH different from the dive kicking Wolverine we all love
I don’t think a Marvel sub is needed to replace Deadpool. A character like DMC’s Lady could fill his niche as far as playstyle goes.
I think Gwenpool would be more like a mix between BB Hood & Phoenix Wright instead of a Deadpool clone.
Again, Gwenpool is hilarious, but I’d rather have either of those characters back instead of her.
One of the criteria for the poll in this sub forum is to “use your head” for character poll votes, and unsurprisingly theres some retarded ass character picks going on.
I was thinking about dark stalkers and what chances those characters have. Realistically I’d say for both play style and popularity that bb hood and anakaris have a good chance. Dimitri is very shoto-y and tallarin doesn’t have a very marvel kind of moveset. His one super that changes direction 5 times fits the bill but outside of that it’s just his grab and nunchucks. I don’t know if they’d prioritize something like that over a zoner and…whatever the hell bb’s play style is supposed to be.
BB was kind of a grounded rushdown character with great dashes that could zone at will. To be fair, her utility in MvC2 was pretty specific as she didn’t have the tools to keep up with the god characters.
Anakaris is a strange case in that parts of his moveset were completely redone. He lost his projectile copy and hover mode, but had air versions of Cobra Blow and his command throw plus an airdash. He was actually around the upper part of mid tier in MvC2, and theoretically could have run shit if the top tiers didn’t do some of his stuff better without the trade offs.
I don’t think Jon Talbain would be too grounded for Marvel because of Beast Cannon. That move is basically Storm’s Lightning Attack but bigger. Especially after MvC3, air mobility isn’t quite as big a deal as it used to be. I’m picturing a character that plays like a Felicia/Wolverine hybrid.
Demitri is basically a shoto with a really expensive to animate super. Not a priority.
Victor, Lord Raptor, Huitzil, Donovan, and Jedah all have aspects that would work well in Marvel too, so Capcom has room to get creative.
Man, you talk about Midnight Bliss being expensive to animate. I’d love to see them try to animate Huitzil.
Not really, since Widow’s main form of offense are her gauntlets.
Except that’s not all there is to Black Panther, he uses tech too after all. He also doesn’t fight feral like Wolverine.
Or more likely, they’re fans of the character and everyone has a right to their pick.
Besides, having read her book, there are a lot of creative ways to use her and she wouldn’t have to be like Wade.
Not that i think she’ll make it in, mostly because she’s still rather new. Though remember, most of the characters you mentioned have never been in an MvC game either. Except for Storm anyway.
And some pretty obscure characters have made it in before them already, Like Shuma-Gorath. So how important they might be or might have been doesn’t really matter.
Some of them will be left out in favor of a Shuma-Gorath or a MODOK, again.
Well everyone, the verdict is in. No need for anymore discussion I suppose
We’re not asking the REAL questions though.
With the PS4 and Xbox One do we finally have enough RAM for the Human Torch?!
Heh, i forgot about that. Sadly, that might not be the problem this time.
That said, if any of the members of the F4 make it in, i have to figure it would be him or his sister.
…If RAM isn’t an issue of course . 
I really wanna see how Loki would be utilized here.
Mahvel save me… The PC version of UMvC3 can’t come soon enough…
I’ll be sure to ban you as soon as it comes out.
To be fair, assists force you to think about the game in a completely different way. With the gems, it’s just another resource, like meter. With tagging, it’s a character swap. It’s very easy for a new player to internalize swapping to character B because character A is no longer in play. Assists force you to potentially consider 3 to 4 characters on the screen at the same time, not to mention the 3 different kinds of assists a character could potentially have coming in. From a gameplay perspective, there’s just no way what we’ve seen in MvCI could be more complex than what UMvC3 or MvC2 gameplay offers on the regular.
Would read it… but then I realize it’s written by that cuck bizzaro mike and I don’t want to give him clicks…
When I first played MVC3 I picked Trish/X-23/Haggar. I used Haggar’s Violent Axe to extend combos. I was having fun that way. Then I got interested in the competitive side, and learned the basics of team composition.
Assists ain’t the problem of making a game complex. Casuals don’t need to consider the competitive gameplay to have fun.
I’m envisioning a slow tricky fighter using a spear, with large disjoints but minimal coverage who relies on trickery to get in with body doubles a la Avenger’s movie, a teleporting move kinda like Greninja in Smash where he’s moving secretly while pretending to still be acting normal, and a psuedo anti-air where he raises his spear aloft and it shines in an AoE above his head, with maybe a basic long startup beam to round out the moveset.
Hyper Combos could be a stationary illusion body double that isn’t interrupted by the opponent, so you could keep him close to the opponent for pressure or as a defensive GTFO move keeping him close to you. And/Or a basic combo ender where he stabs the opponent and dumps them on the ground afterwards to be blasted (leaves them hittable by OTG and gives him lots of active frames). LVL3 (if there are any) could be encircling the opponent with Lokis. Opponent looks bewildered, maybe takes a swing at one of them which goes through the illusion, but then that Loki strikes back before they all curb stomp the dude with energy blasts, ending with them kneeling, with all the Lokis into one reforming and then kicking them away.
Loki could get a special Mind Gem power that makes him invisible to boot. Particularly effective with his body doubles
He would have 8 way dashing, but slow movement speed, with a good back dash, but mediocre forward dash.
This is what I’ve been looking forward to
