Joe Zaza makes gambit look like an elite 
Joe Zaza, please do a “teaching gambit” thread =)
Forgot to ask, does tiger knee kinectic cards have any use ? Can you be ahvb after cable blocks a jab cajun slash or jab kinectic card?
What are the properties of the kinectic card and royal flush, sometimes I’ve knocked people out of supers and at other times I was attacking the assist with royal flush while the opponent was jumping towards me but got caught in the royal flush even though they swore they were guarding. Can anyone explain to me these two factors ?
bump
his fk throws pretty good. Its not as good as spirals but its usable/abusable. at least imo.
jab cajun slash is a good poke. sometimes people get cocky and run into it.
Gambit has his strenghts and weaknesses just as any character does. I’ve been expirementing with a few things to see just what his strong points are.
-
His air Kinetic Card has a sort of “spray” effect, similar to Doom’s air photon shot. It’s range is not as distant, however it does cover a decent portion of the lower screen almost in direct relation to the animation of the card-dashes.
-
His projetile assist can work as a projectile and a trap. When the cards connect, you have about just under 1 sec to dash over and launch/set-up. You can use this to bait the opponent. For example, you can dash-jump right over the defender. As you pass over his head, call the assist so that Gambit appears on the side that you were running from. As you land, you have a slight delay before the cards are actually thrown so you can whiff out a move to bait the opponent to follow up. By this time Gambit should appear behind the defender and the cards should be thrown at him in a “cross up”. If the cards connect, go to town. If you’re opponent defended the whole sequence, then just press on. Well, I’m not sure if that’s the safest thing to do but I like to use it with guys who have a fast dash which results in a lenghthy dash-jump (wolverine, cammy).
-
His Kinetic Explosion has a property similar to Mag’s Shockwave. You can only cancel it BEFORE the charges make contact with the defender. Once the charges connect, you cannot cancel reguardless if it hits or blocks.
Hope this helps. I’m still expirementing however. So far the advise on this thread has been helpful. Thanks guys.
I personally like pairing Gambit with Strider Hyato and Jin. I use Jins meter to push the opponent back then pull out gambit to keep them back there by throwing a few cards now and then, until I have a meter, this usually will finish them once I use one meter on them. Then I like to pull out strider in order to get cheap hits on my opponents and finish with gambits meter attacts.
Also can someone tell me how to do his attack where he bounces around the arena and lands on the opponent? I think its called Cajun strike, right?
you’re joking right?
well if you didn’t know, its charge down, for about 2 seconds then motion up, with the start button
charge D, U, start! 
justin wong does pretty well with gambit. he has a good lockdown game with the cards and whenever he gets a hit in he links it to royal flush XX Morigan Soul Eraser. does a lot of damage.
i got all the vids fomr megamands’ thread in the evo forums.
yea, Justin K morrigan/gambit/son son
soul eraser dhc royal flush.
Random combos in the Low Tier thread in the general MvC2 forum. Sorry, too lazy to re-post.
best advice ever:
dont forget to glitch it IF you’re winning =\
Assist…
I was playing Gambit with CapCom assist, and found a really cool combo.
lk, lk, hk, assist, fierce trick card, fierce kinetic card, royal flush.
1 super, 100something damage to 100% stamina.
the HK combos into Commando’s corridor, then the trick card sticks em in the air, then they drop into a second kinetic card, then royal flush for the added ouchies.
I’m using Gambit in my team for a low tier tourney. My team is Cap America/Morrigan/Gambit. Most likely, Gambit is my main assist, I found him very useful to connect some combos with Cap America (some with dmg>100).
With Gambit on top, I’m using him like in mvc1, just filling the super bar and going for Cajun Explosion, trying to connect a combo with Morrigan as AA (lk, lk, morrigan, trick card, royal flush, dhc). Is that ok?
How’s his priorities on j.HP and j.HK? j.HP seems to beat so many things…
Can anyone tell me how to do the glitch?
Great thread, I gotta bump this up. I want to be good with Gambit. My team is currently Gambit/Clops/Tron, I thought about adding either Commando or Morrigan to the team but then I wouldn’t be able to compete in high-tier play.
I’m not trying 2 start an arguement. You’re making it seem like Gambit is trash or something. Yeah I know he can’t go up against the God tiers and shit but 4 you 2 say he’s like Dan that’s insulting. I’ve played against people who play like the pros with God tiers and I still held (hold) my own with Gambit on multiple occasions and I get my respect from players because of the way I use him. I do know however, that he’s not meant 4 tournament play that’s why I understand why you said stick with Cable, Blackheart, and Magneto. Nothing personal but it just comes off like you’re shitting on him.
Do the snap back (X out) by pressing QCF and assist 2 button. After that do Cajun Strike to the left of the screen and Gambit will fly upwards from the screen.
Here’s a corner combo I’ve been doing 4 a while, you can start it anyway you want just make sure that the normals end with HK. The way I do it is LP, LK, LP (MP), LK (MK), HK, quickly do Cajun Slash (HP), quickly press c.LK, c.HP and then do an air combo from there. You can also use the other Cajun Slash (HP+LK version) then finish it with a Royal Flush, must be done with good timing and it might connect depending on the character.
