| 28 | |
| 29 | -->Surrender is your only option. |
| 30 | -->'''Debut:''' ''Captain America Comics'' #1 (March 1941) |
| 31 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BrianBloom |
| 32 | |
| 33 | The sole recipient of the Super Soldier Serum, [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica Steve Rogers']] deep love for his country and his unparalleled sense of justice make him one of the most respected heroes today. He has also been the long-time leader of the Avengers, a group dedicated to keeping the world safe from harm. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | Cap's moveset is cut from a similar cloth as Ryu and Akuma (projectile via his shield, multi-hitting charge in place of a hurricane kick, rising uppercut), but distances himself with his shield toss move pulling opponents towards him and a special movement option to better avoid attacks. He also has an edge over them with his air game, with the aforementioned shield toss and his ''Ultimate''-granted double jump owing to more advanced air combos. |
| 36 | ---- |
| 37 | * AndThisIsFor: If he wins a battle against ComicBook/IronMan, he proclaims "That was for ''ComicBook/{{Civil War|2006}}''". |
| 38 | * ApologeticAttacker: His quote after performing an Assist attack is "Sorry, soldier." |
| 39 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: His DLC costume gives him his Director of SHIELD outfit. |
| 40 | * AvengersAssemble: He yells this when he is the first person picked on a team out of himself, Iron Man, Thor or Hawkeye. Amusingly, if you're doing a challenge that makes every enemy team three copies of the same character, he also says it if you fight three Iron Mans. |
| 41 | * BoomerangComeback: Unlike in the previous games, his shield will automatically fly back towards him after being thrown. |
| 42 | * ButForMeItWasTuesday: In ''Ultimate'', when facing off against Taskmaster, Cap doesn't seem to remember him and asks him who he is. |
| 43 | * CaptainPatriotic: The Trope Codifier, being one of the many superheroes created during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII to boost the Allies' morale. His influence in media stood the test of time. |
| 44 | * ComplimentBackfire: When he references the 1940's warplane, it seems to go over Zero's head, both being fast, fragile and prone to self destructive charges. |
| 45 | * EmpoweredBadassNormal: Well, he used a SuperSerum to become what he is now (he was once weak and limp), but what that serum does is just enhancing his overall power and durability to the peak of human performance. |
| 46 | * ExperiencedProtagonist: He's been kicking ass in the name of freedom since 1941, and hasn't slowed down one bit since then. |
| 47 | ---> I've fought in more wars than you can count. |
| 48 | * FirstNameBasis: He calls Iron Man, Hawkeye, Nova, and Doctor Strange by their true names ("Tony!" "Clint!" "Richie!" and "Stephen!", respectively). |
| 49 | * GratuitousEnglish: In the Japanese version of the game, he uses a lot of English words in his winning speech bubbles, written in English script and all. This doesn't extend to his spoken dialogue, though, as there are no Japanese voices for the Marvel characters. |
| 50 | * TheHeart: It's subtle, but it's still there. The cinematic movies of the game begin [[LetsYouAndHimFight with Marvel characters fighting against Capcom ones]] (along with unexpected alliances like [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Chris Redfield]] saving [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Morrigan]], for example). Cap is the first hero to actually protect guys from the other universe - thus switching the battle to a good guys vs bad guys mode. |
| 51 | * HeroicBuild: The serum Captain America took to become what he is changed his body so that it could reach the peak of human performance, resulting in the muscular physique he has now. |
| 52 | * JackOfAllStats: He is very versatile, deals good damage and can play both offensively or employ keep away tactics, but doesn't really excel in any particular role. |
| 53 | * LagCancel: He can cancel his dash with crouching and then dashing again, making it quicker to approach opponents. |
| 54 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Captain America's iconic shield is obviously his weapopn and used extensively in his entire moveset. |
| 55 | * TheRival: M.O.D.O.K. started out as a strictly Captain America villain. Their animosity towards each other is lampshaded in the former's intro quote, who envisions their confrontation as "the ultimate battle of brains versus brawn". |
| 56 | * ShieldBash: His Charging Star and Stars And Stripes specials, as well as their hyper counterparts, involve charging at his opponents at high speed to bash them with his shield. His Charging Star, in particular, can go through projectiles. |
| 57 | * {{Shoryuken}}: His Stars And Stripes special is an uppercut that hits his opponents with the shield. This also has a hyper variant, which resembles [[Franchise/StreetFighter Ken]]'s Shoryuu Reppa. |
| 58 | * {{Shotoclone}}: His Shield Slash, Stars & Stripes and Charging Star function similarly to Ryu's Hadoken, Shoryuken and Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, respectively. |
| 59 | * SpinningPiledriver: Performs said move in his Final Justice hyper, which [[AwesomenessIsVolatile creates an explosion.]] |
| 60 | * ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks: He launches his shield as a projectile when he performs Shield Slash. It now also hits [[PrecisionGuidedBoomerang upon flying back]]. |

| 64 | !!Wade Winston Wilson / Deadpool |
| 65 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/210px-Deadpool_MvsC3-FTW_6077.PNG]] |
| 66 | --> Check [[ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} me]] out! I'm the ghost of Christmas Kick Your Ass! |
| 67 | -->'''Debut:''' ''The New Mutants'' #98 (February 1991) |
| 68 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/NolanNorth |
| 69 | |
| 70 | After a botched suicide attempt, Wade Wilson was drafted to a secret government training program where medical exams diagnosed him with over 40 cancerous tumors, that couldn't be removed without killing him. To fix this, he volunteered for the Weapon X program to give him a HealingFactor similar to Wolverine's, but it backfired as said healing factor ''accelerated'' the cancer and left him with a horribly disfigured face. He was deemed a failure and sent to Dr. Kilebrew, whose extremely cruel tendencies towards his patients drove him insane. He broke out of the Weapon X labs and became a mercenary, calling himself Deadpool because he always won a game he played with inmates over guessing who would die next. |
| 71 | |
| 72 | Dark backstory aside, good ol' Deadpool is one of Marvel's most recognizable characters thanks to his humorous personality, craziness, wacky antics and fourth wall-obliterating tendencies. He's a complete WildCard, switching allegiances frequently and often talking to two voices inside his head. For his appearance in this game, he continues breaking the fourth wall, and generally jamming as much of his craziness into his moveset and quotes as possible. |
| 73 | |
| 74 | Gameplay-wise, he's pretty good all-around, but he's really good at keeping enemies away with high-priority bullets and bombs. With good partners, he's also good at locking down the opponent using that strategy, and using "his" Shoryuken as a LauncherMove if they get close. |
| 75 | ---- |
| 76 | * AirplaneArms: Deadpool's dash animation has him lunge forward, with both his arms lagging behind. |
| 77 | * AndThisIsFor: |
| 78 | ** When he wins against Arthur, he declares that "This is for lulling me into great side-scrolling adventures [[NintendoHard that were never possible to beat!]]". |
| 79 | ** Due to a programming error, Deadpool's winquote against Spencer has him yell "And THAT'S for pooping on my lawn. I'M the only one who gets to do that!". Obviously, such quote was originally supposed to be for Amaterasu. |
| 80 | * AscendedMeme: |
| 81 | ** He keeps the {{Shoryuken}} he used in his home comic. Unlike the usual Shoryuken, Deadpool's is used as a launcher, so it puts the opponent in a vulnerable position and has quick recovery, despite having almost no horizontal range and very short vertical range. |
| 82 | --> '''Ryu''': You stole my Shoryuken? When did you...!? |
| 83 | ** His win quote against Magneto references the infamous MAHVEL, BAYBEE! video, while his intro quote references the ''other'' notable Magneto line from ''Creator/{{Konami}}'''s [[VideoGame/XMen arcade game]]. |
| 84 | --> [[EvilLaugh HAHAHA!]] Magneto! Welcome TO DIE! |
| 85 | --> [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxAbRmOiqvo&t=03m23s I just beat Mag-freakin'-neto! Where yo curleh mustache at?!]] |
| 86 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He's a batshit-crazy TalkativeLoon whose grasp on reality is... not the strongest, to say the least. |
| 87 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He's goofy as hell to say the least, but extremely deadly regardless. |
| 88 | * BloodKnight: When tagging in after one or both teammates are defeated, he says "Yay! Now it's fighty time!" or "Blood blood blood!", which double as references to the moment he used a {{Shoryuken}} on Kitty Pride. |
| 89 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: |
| 90 | ** His Level 3 Hyper has him beat the opponent with ''the {{HUD}}''. |
| 91 | ** His winpose has him walking up to the camera and talking to the player, like asking if the player remembered to record the fight or complaining to the player about having to jump around while the player sits back and watches. |
| 92 | ** When he's KO'd, he will admonish the player for "pressing the wrong button". |
| 93 | ** When he beats any Street Fighter character, he addresses Capcom, expressing interest to be in the cover for the next ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' game. |
| 94 | ** His intro quote against Dante has him ask how did could enjoy the latter's games without him in them, poking fun at how close the two characters are both in terms of personality and skills. |
| 95 | ** In his ending, he throws a party and says he would invite the player in front of the TV, if it wasn't for the fact that they are already being rewarded by receiving Player Points. |
| 96 | ** In ''Ultimate''[='=]s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP1XlPXMwVY opening movie]], he [[ImplausibleBoardingSkills surfs]] on Phoenix Wright's "Objection!" SpeechBubble. |
| 97 | ** While his friend ComicBook/{{Cable}} didn't return for this game to the dismay of many fans, Deadpool did get a DLC "Cablepool" outfit in ''Ultimate''. When he dons it, he says "And you thought Cable wasn't in this game..." |
| 98 | * CallingYourBathroomBreaks: Does this whenever he tags out. |
| 99 | * CombatPragmatist: Pretty much all the fighters are this to a degree, but only he can level his opponents with the ''heads-up display''. |
| 100 | * CounterAttack: His Level 3 Hyper starts with him doing a SupermodelStrut (complete with [[HeartSymbol heart-shaped bubbles]] and [[WesternAnimation/BettyBoop "Boop boop bee doop!"]]), and if the opponent attacks him, he'll stun them before beating them with his lifebar and Hyper Combo gauge. |
| 101 | * DissonantSerenity: His "Cuttin' Time!" attack has him sing merrily as he slices the opponent. |
| 102 | * EasterEgg: If he tags in and the player doesn't input anything for a bit, Deadpool will start doing a bunch of martial arts poses... before he realizes he's facing the wrong way and turns around. |
| 103 | * EpicFail: When his health is low, using his teleport move can actually KO him, with the game cheering it with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CPIqVL3ZQ4 a Hyper Combo KO announcement]]. |
| 104 | * ExploitingTheFourthWall: As expected of Deadpool, he can use 4th wall elements to attack - in form of his Level 3 Hyper and his taunt. |
| 105 | * ExplosiveOverclocking: In his ending, he throws a party to celebrate his victory over Galactus, and [[spoiler:accidentally ends up wiping Cleveland off the map because he attempted to add a Power Cosmic boost to the DJ booth.]] |
| 106 | * FightingClown: His fighting style is half regular attacks, and half fucking around. |
| 107 | * GangstaStyle: Overlaps with GunsAkimbo in one of his hypers, where he holds his guns this way before unloading several magazines' worth of bullets on them. |
| 108 | * {{Handguns}}: Always carries a pair on him. [[Film/Deadpool2016 Just two guns, two swords, and maximum effort.]] |
| 109 | * HeroicComedicSociopath: Hero? Villain? Who cares! He certainly doesn't. He just loves fighting people, and is incredibly good at it. |
| 110 | ---> Who was I supposed to kill again? EH! Doesn't matter! |
| 111 | * IaijutsuPractitioner: His Katana-Rama is a quick unsheathe-and-resheathe sword attack that fires off a short RazorWind. |
| 112 | * KatanasAreJustBetter: He dual-wields katanas in conjunction with his guns. He lampshades it in one of his win quotes, where he wonders whether to kill his opponent with "the sleek but impersonal firearm" or go with "the cool factor of a nice katana". |
| 113 | * LagCancel: He's unique in that unlike other teleporting characters, he can use his teleport to cancel his other specials. His limit is that said teleport will backfire and explode every third time. |
| 114 | * LargeHam: Nolan North was clearly having a lot of fun in this role. Wade's voice never falls below a hammy yell and he is always shouting ludicrous things at the top of his lungs non-stop. |
| 115 | * MediumAwareness: He can beat his opponent around the head with his own life bar, |
| 116 | * MoonwalkDance: Deadpool moonwalks whenever he walks backwards, as opposed to the other characters. |
| 117 | * MoreDakka: His Hyper Combo, Happy Happy Trigger, involes him spraying a hail of bullets from his dual handguns, probably more so than they can regularly hold, actually. |
| 118 | ---> [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud BANG! BANGBANGBANG! BANGBANGBANGBANG!]] |
| 119 | * NinjaProp: Deadpool is fully aware of the game's design, so he whacks his opponent with his health and super bars in his Level 3 Hyper Combo. |
| 120 | * NoFourthWall: If the fourth wall ever existed with this guy, it's long been vaporized. The vast majority of his quotes directly adress the player or the fact he's in a video game. His level 3 Hyper Combo, appropriately named "4th-Wall Crisis", has him whack the enemy away ''with his health bar and Hyper Combo bar''. |
| 121 | * NoIndoorVoice: He doesn't recite his lines as much as he screams them. |
| 122 | * OwMyBodyPart: One of his damage quotes is "MY KIDNEYS!" |
| 123 | * PracticalTaunt: Deadpool's taunt produces a speech bubble that has a damaging hitbox. |
| 124 | * ShootTheBullet: In the first trailer, Deadpool and Dante draw their guns on each other. Rather than dodge the incoming attacks, they both proceed to unload, with each individual bullet being deflect off its target by an opponent's projectile. |
| 125 | * SlideAttack: His Katana-rama is a move where he slides on the ground through the opponent as he slashes them with his swords. |
| 126 | * SpectacularSpinning: If his "Happy-Happy Trigger" hyper is done in midair, he'll spin while firing diagonally downward. |
| 127 | * SupermodelStrut: {{Parodied|Trope}} in his Level 3 Hyper Combo. He assumes a girlish and comical "sexy" pose before strolling forward while swaying his hips in a feminine fashion, a hand on his waist and a surrounding by a [[PinkIsErotic pink aura]] that has {{Heart Symbol}}s popping out. If he is attacked in this state, he will launch a CounterAttack where [[BreakingTheFourthWall he beats his opponent with his own health and super meter bars]]. |
| 128 | * TakeThat: Towards his infamous InNameOnly portrayal in ''Film/XMenOriginsWolverine'', when he defeats Logan himself: |
| 129 | ---> You see that? ''That's'' how ya beat Wolverine, people. [[SuddenlyShouting AND YOU DON'T EVEN NEED OPTIC BLASTS!!!]] [''laughs derangedly''] |
| 130 | ** Also gives two when facing Spider-Man: |
| 131 | ---> '''Intro:''' Gonna rough you up like [[Theatre/SpiderManTurnOffTheDark a Broadway musical!]] |
| 132 | ---> '''Outro:''' Man, that was ''too'' easy! Maybe it would've helped if you'd ''[[TitleDrop turned off the dark]]''. |
| 133 | * TalkativeLoon: Deadpool never stops talking about the game's mechanics or how he is aware that he is just a fictional character, which other fighters interpret as just another facet of his lunacy. A few like Dr. Strange and Hsien-Ko will tell him to his face that they wish he would just shut up. |
| 134 | * TeleportationWithDrawbacks: He can teleport thanks to his special belt, but the belt will malfunction and the move will backfire on every third attempt, causing an explosion that damages the opponent and Deadpool himself. |
| 135 | * TrickBomb: His Level 3 Hyper Combo involves a [[BlindedByTheLight flashbang grenade]] to blind his opponent. |
| 136 | * TriggerHappy: Most of his moveset revolves around him wildly shooting his revolvers, to the point that he even has a special ''exactly named'' after this, and a hyper named "Happy-Happy Trigger". |
| 137 | ---> HAVE GUN, WILL SHOOT!! |
| 138 | * WolverinePublicity: He's prominently displayed on most of the artwork for the game, and shown opposite [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante]] in the intro. His eventual burst of popularity is lampshaded by ComicBook/SheHulk, who annoyedly points out to Deadpool that in the '80s and early '90s she was very popular and even shared his signature fourth-wall-breaking powers. |
| 139 | * YourMom: When executing some of his attacks, he will sometimes randomly exclaim "Yo momma!" |

| 145 | -->To face [[ComicBook/DoctorDoom Doom]] is to face one's end! |
| 146 | -->'''Debut:''' ''The Fantastic Four'' #5 (July 1962) |
| 147 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/PaulDobson |
| 148 | |
| 149 | Full name Victor von Doom, this EvilOverlord and MadScientist is the Fantastic Four's ArchEnemy, and one of Marvel's most famous villains. |
| 150 | |
| 151 | He used to be an associate of Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic), but when he helped Doom to open an interdimensional rift into hell to rescue the soul of his mother despite Richards' warnings, the portal blew up in Doom's face, scarring him. He [[DisproportionateRetribution blamed Richards for the whole accident]] and [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge swore revenge]], constructing an [[PoweredArmor advanced suit of armor]] that included [[CoolMask an iron mask]] to cover his scar, and became '''Doctor Doom''', then overthrew the previous ruler of Latveria and claimed it as his own. He repeatedly tries to TakeOverTheWorld as well, and with all of his knowledge and powers he could potentially pull it off, but the Fantastic Four always manage to stop him., |
| 152 | |
| 153 | In this game, he strikes a BigBadDuumvirate with Albert Wesker to TakeOverTheWorld. |
| 154 | ---- |
| 155 | * AGodAmI: His intro quote against against [[PhysicalGod Amaterasu, Thor, or Shuma-Gorath]] has him proclaim that "it is Doom who should be worshiped". |
| 156 | * AntiAir: His Sphere Flame hyper goes straight up, multi-hitting the opponent. If it doesn't hit, the sphere explodes and multiple energy shots [[DeathFromAbove rain from above.]] |
| 157 | * BadassArmFold: His IdleAnimation is just him standing in place with his arms crossed, which serves to display that he doesn't consider the other playable characters to be more than just a distraction. |
| 158 | * BadassBookworm: He's a powerful genius, and he loves to make sure everyone knows it. |
| 159 | * BadassCape: He's a badass supervillain, and has the cape to prove it. |
| 160 | * BigBadDuumvirate: With Wesker, at first. It doesn't last, either because he wouldn't want to share control of the two universes with him, was disgusted by his methods, or both. |
| 161 | * CallingYourAttacks: Like most of the Marvel cast, but it gets a bit silly when he even loudly calls out "HIDDEN MISSILES". |
| 162 | * CerebroElectro: Doom is a ScienceWizard and uses lightning magic. |
| 163 | * CoolChair: His throne appears in his intro, Level 3 hyper, and victory pose. |
| 164 | * CoolMask: It wouldn't be Doctor Doom without it. It has an angry expression to symbolize his wrath. It also hides his hideously scarred face... [[TakeOurWordForIt or so he tells us, anyway]]. |
| 165 | * DidYouJustScamCthulhu: Doom's ending has him [[spoiler:steal some of the Power Cosmic from Galactus]]. |
| 166 | * DishingOutDirt: His Molecular Shield special, which lifts several boulders around him and shoots them forwards. |
| 167 | * DivingKick: His "Foot Dive" is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. Dr. Doom dives diagonally forward, with both legs extended, and crushes his opponent under his feet. |
| 168 | * ElectricTorture: His Level 3 hyper conjures up a cage that traps the opponent and electrocutes them, as he enters a SlouchOfVillainy to enjoy the show. |
| 169 | * EnergyWeapon: He can fire a thin green laser from his gun or an array of beams from his hands. |
| 170 | * EvilOverlord: A supervillain who runs his own country, the Eastern European nation of Latveria. |
| 171 | * EvilSoundsDeep: His voice is booming under his armor. |
| 172 | * ExpandingThrownWeapon: Doom's "Molecular Shield" move, which creates a rotating mass of rock-like molecules around him that offers him brief protection and can be hurled at his opponent. |
| 173 | * FantasticRacism: Upon defeating any of the X-Men characters, Doom will disparagingly refer to them as "mutant scum". |
| 174 | * TheFightingNarcissist: One of his victory quotes has him demand that the applause continues for another hour, with execution as punishment for those who disobey. |
| 175 | * {{Flight}}: He's capable of this for a short time thanks to his armor. |
| 176 | * GroundPound: His LauncherMove has him pound the ground, unleashing a wave of energy that propels his opponent into the sky. |
| 177 | * {{Hammerspace}}: He conjures up a lot of his weaponry from out of nowhere, such as a missile launcher from behind his legs. |
| 178 | * HomingProjectile: A variant - his Hidden Missiles will track the enemy's position while [[DeathFromAbove falling from above.]] |
| 179 | * ItsPersonal: His special conversation with Ghost Rider is much more aggressive, even calling the Spirit of Vengeance by his real name. |
| 180 | -->'''Doctor Doom:''' I shall send you back to the Hellfire that spawned you, Blaze. |
| 181 | * LargeHam: He's very fond of delivering hamtastic lines in third person to exclaim how great he is and how inferior to him his enemies are. |
| 182 | * {{Magitek}}: Despite his moveset being largely based on his various gadgets, Dr. Doom is a proficient magic user. This leads him to develop a minor rivalry with Dr. Strange, as the two bicker about who is the better magician during their win quote dialogues. |
| 183 | * NotBigEnoughForTheTwoOfUs: He utters "this dimension is not big enough for the both of us!" as his intro quote against Dormammu. |
| 184 | * PoweredArmor: His suit of armor is packed with high-technology and {{Magitek}} systems, making him a powerful opponent. |
| 185 | * ScienceWizard: Doom is both a brilliant scientist and a powerful sorcerer. |
| 186 | * ShockAndAwe: Has a number of magic attacks with electric effects. |
| 187 | * ShouldersOfDoom: His DLC "Doomwar" outfit has these. |
| 188 | * SpreadShot: His Photon Shot special and Photon Array hyper fan out in multiple directions to hit the opponent. |
| 189 | * ThatMakesMeFeelAngry: When he activates his X-Factor, he exclaims "You have angered Doom!" |
| 190 | * ThirdPersonPerson: As he considers himself a great and powerful ruler, Doom indulges in this, referring to himself almost exclusively by his own last name. |
| 191 | * VillainTeamUp: With Wesker, to take control of both the Marvel and Capcom universes. The alliance is broken in the third animated teaser, though. |
| 192 | * TheVonTropeFamily: His real name is Victor '''von''' Doom. |

| 198 | -->Who dares defy the Dread One? |
| 199 | -->'''Debut:''' ''Strange Tales'' #126 (November 1964) |
| 200 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MichaelTWeiss |
| 201 | |
| 202 | A higher-dimensional energy being, and [[DimensionLord absolute god-tyrant of his own magical universe]], the "Dark Dimension". [[GodOfEvil He wants to conquer all life and afterlife, exterminate any opposing conceptual forces, and rewrite the laws of nature to turn it all into a never-ending torture-camp set up to celebrate the glory of himself.]] |
| 203 | |
| 204 | Due to actually possessing sufficient power and knowledge to potentially pull it off, Dormammu is considered to be "something worse than a demon", and is the archenemy of the hero Doctor Strange, who constantly somehow manages to thwart the entity's chilling mad ambitions. |
| 205 | ---- |
| 206 | * AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, Dormammu is the all-powerful overlord of the Dark Dimension. He's a being of such unimaginable power that even Dr. Strange isn't usually able to defeat him outright, instead relying on trickery and outsmarting him. Here, he can be beat up by regular humans, including [[Franchise/ResidentEvil a police officer]], [[VideoGame/DeadRising a reporter]], [[ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} an archer]], [[Franchise/AceAttorney a lawyer]], and [[VideoGame/FinalFight a pro wrestler-turned mayor]]. |
| 207 | * ArchEnemy: To Dr. Strange. Curiously, he had intro and outro dialogues recorded for going up against him, but for some reason they were DummiedOut. |
| 208 | * BadassArmFold: His idle animation when flying. |
| 209 | * BadassFingersnap: Dormammu snaps his finger to create small burst of energy in his Light attacks. |
| 210 | %%* BadassLongcoat |
| 211 | * CoolChair: Like Doom, his intro has him levitate out of a throne. |
| 212 | * DeathFromAbove: His Liberation attack, which seems to be taken from Mephisto/Blackheart's Armageddon in the past games of the series, summons a meteor shower to strike the opponent from above. |
| 213 | * DiscOneFinalBoss: The earliest trailers implied that he would be the final boss or at least a major antagonist. Galactus ended up taking the role of final boss, with Dormammu being one of his four Heralds. Dr. Doom and Wesker's alliance also takes centre stage in the prequel comic, leaving Dormammu something of a PlotIrrelevantVillain. |
| 214 | * EldritchAbomination: He's a billion-year old immortal member of a race of higher-dimensional mystical energy beings and possesses power enough to threaten the existence of entire universes. |
| 215 | * EvilLaugh: He laughs when performing all his special moves. |
| 216 | %%* EvilSoundsDeep |
| 217 | * EvilVersusEvil: Dormammu's ending in ''Ultimate'' shows him invading Capcom worlds in search of "new opportunities". Akuma confronts him, saying he has no power in that realm. |
| 218 | * EvolvingAttack: His Liberation. Depending on how you use your Dark Spells: Creation & Destruction, the resulting attack will change (1 red-1 blue is different with 2 reds-1 blue, for example). |
| 219 | * ExtremityExtremist: He only uses his hands for his attacks. |
| 220 | * {{Fireballs}}: His Stalking Flare hyper, which can slowly [[HomingProjectile home in on his opponent.]] |
| 221 | * {{Flight}}: He is capable of this, for a short time. |
| 222 | * GodOfEvil: He's a despot god who revels in the suffering of the people he governs. |
| 223 | %%* LargeHam: Typical for godlike villains |
| 224 | * LongRangeFighter: His special moves and hypers are geared towards keeping his enemies at bay. |
| 225 | * MightyGlacier: a long-ranged version. While he moves slowly, his powerful zoning capabilities make sure approaching him is not a walk in the park. |
| 226 | * MiniBoss: One of four characters who can serve as Galactus' Herald. |
| 227 | * MonochromaticEyes: Simple shining orange eyes without pupils. |
| 228 | * MultiversalConqueror: In his ending, he sets out to take over the various Capcom universes, aided by fellow villains Wesker, Firebrand and Akuma, as well as Lord Raptor from ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}''. However, in the revised [=UMC3=] ending, the other villains are actually trying to protect their own worlds from Dormammu, recruiting M. Bison, Wily and Devilotte in an effort to repel the intruder. |
| 229 | * PillarOfLight: His Purification special summons a damaging pillar of dark energy in front of him. |
| 230 | * PlayingWithFire: Wields the Flames of the Faltine, which enable him to unleash a continuous stream of hellish fire (Chaotic Flame) or create a blazing sphere that follows his enemies (Stalking Flare). |
| 231 | * PowerCreepPowerSeep: Canonically, all of the regular characters combined shouldn't even be able to make the guy notice their attacks. He's a higher-dimensional entity. If the game didn't do this, Shuma-Gorath, Dormammu, Phoenix, Galactus, Doctor Strange, Amaterasu, and Morrigan would basically slug it out with the galaxy wiped out around them. |
| 232 | * PowerEchoes: His echoing voice is a sign of his power and otherworldliness. |
| 233 | * PowerGlows: His "Dark Spell: Creation" tints one of his hands blue and his "Dark Spell: Destruction" tints the other one red. |
| 234 | * RedBaron: Refers to himself as the Dread Dormammu. |
| 235 | * RedHerring: Early trailers made it appear as if Dormammu was going to be the main villain and final boss, as he shows up at the very ending of the first trailer to confront the heroes and has a climactic battle against Thor in the fourth one. In reality, the real BigBad is Galactus, and Dormammu is simply one of his four possible heralds. |
| 236 | * SlouchOfVillainy: Like Doom, he greets his foes from his CoolChair. |
| 237 | * SpikesOfDoom: His "Dark Spell: Creation", if used 2 times and then you use Liberation, he can fire out spikes from the ground. |
| 238 | %%* SpikesOfVillainy |
| 239 | * StuffBlowingUp: Using his Liberation after powering it up with "Dark Spell: Destruction" creates a screen-wide explosion. |
| 240 | * TeleportCloak: His teleport move, Mass Change, has him wrap himself in his cloak and reappear somewhere else. |
| 241 | %%* ThisCannotBe: One of his K.O. quotes. |
| 242 | %%* UnrealisticBlackHole: His Dark Hole special. |
| 243 | * YourSoulIsMine: His win quote against Ghost Rider has him claim that Blaze's soul is now his. |

| 249 | -->''[[HulkSpeak YOU MAKE HULK ANGRY!]] [[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry YOU NO LIKE HULK ANGRY]]!!!'' |
| 250 | -->'''Debut:''' ''The Incredible Hulk'' #1 (May 1962) |
| 251 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/FredTatasciore |
| 252 | |
| 253 | A genius scientist, [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk Bruce Banner]] accidentally absorbed huge amounts of gamma radiation during a bomb test. As a result, when his anger or negative emotions reach a boiling point, he transforms into the green-skinned Hulk, complete with incredible power that sets the standard for strength. |
| 254 | ---- |
| 255 | * TheBerserker: As the literal embodiment of Bruce Banner's latent rage, Hulk recklessly throws himself into battle against his opponent while screaming that he is the strongest there is. |
| 256 | * BigDamnHeroes: In the Episode 3 Trailer, he single-handedly saves X-23 and Chris and shifts the battle in the heroes' favour. |
| 257 | * CharacterizationMarchesOn: After several games of using his [[GeniusBruiser Merged Hulk]] persona, he's back to his [[HulkSpeak classic]] Savage Hulk identity. |
| 258 | * DeathFromAbove: Gamma Crush. He [[InASingleBound jumps into space]] and essentially [[MeteorMove grabs a meteor]] to drop on his opponent. |
| 259 | * DishingOutDirt: While he doesn't actually have the ability to manipulate earth, many of his attacks have him use his strength to hurl boulders and create earth waves. |
| 260 | * DumbMuscle: Hulk is just an angry creature with primitive understanding of the world around him. Haggar points out that albeit he is strong, he has no idea how to properly use his power. |
| 261 | * FirstNameBasis: Switch him out with She-Hulk, and he tags her in as "Jen". [[http://screwattack.com/videos/MvC3-Hulk-Funny-Sayings Averted with most of the other characters:]] Iron Man is "Metal Man", Felicia is "Cat Girl", Viewtiful Joe is "Funny Helmet Man", and Amaterasu is "Dog" (among others). And then, he still refers to most of the cast by their actual names like Spider-Man, Dante, and Chun-Li. |
| 262 | * GroundPound: In his Gamma Quake hyper, where he hits the ground so hard that huge chunks of earth erupt from the stage. |
| 263 | * HeroicBuild: Exaggerated. His massive muscles only further approximate his appearance to that of a typical monster. |
| 264 | * HulkSpeak: He's the TropeNamer, after all. One funny thing to notice is that Creator/FredTatasciore uses it here, but not when voicing the same character in ''WesternAnimation/TheAvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes''. |
| 265 | * ImmuneToBullets: He mentions to Chris that all of his weapons do nothing against him. |
| 266 | * ImmuneToFlinching: His standing H is armored for 3 hits. |
| 267 | * IneffectualLoner: All Hulk wants is to be left alone in peace. Unfortunately, nobody will ever just leave him be, and so Hulk Smash. |
| 268 | * LargeHam: Since he's basically powered by UnstoppableRage, Hulk shouts whenever he launches an attack as simple as his basic punch combo. |
| 269 | %%* LikeBrotherAndSister: With his cousin Jen, aka She-Hulk. |
| 270 | * MegatonPunch: His ''Ultimate''-only move, Impact Punch, which wallbounces if {{charged|Attack}}. |
| 271 | * MightyGlacier: He moves and attacks slowly, but hits very hard. |
| 272 | * TheNicknamer: As is typical of Savage Hulk, he's not too good with names and calls other characters based on their physical features: |
| 273 | ** Thor: Goldilocks. |
| 274 | ** Dormammu: Flamehead |
| 275 | ** Wolverine: Little Man |
| 276 | ** Morrigan: Goth Girl |
| 277 | ** ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}: Birdy |
| 278 | ** ComicBook/IronFist: Punching Man |
| 279 | ** Shuma-Gorath: [[DoNotTauntCthulhu Starfish]] |
| 280 | * RivalsTeamUp: Chris. They fight in the Episode 1 trailer but, later, he pulls a BigDamnHeroes moment in Episode 3 to assist him, Arthur, and X-23 against Magneto and Wesker. In his ending, [[spoiler:he helps Chris raid the Mansion and search for Wesker, beating Nemesis to a pulp along the way. ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' never looked so easy]]. |
| 281 | * StormingTheCastle: In his ending, [[spoiler:he storms the ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' mansion along with Chris and beats the tar out of Nemesis.]] |
| 282 | * SuperRugPull: His Gamma Wave and its hyper variant Gamma Tsunami have him pull the arena floor, generating a wave of dirt and rocks to bury his opponent. |
| 283 | * SuperStrength: Obviously. It's ''the Hulk''. As he's keen to remind you, Hulk is strongest one there is. |
| 284 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: After his EnemyMine with Chris, he angrily glares at him before literally clenching his teeth, making it clear that he's not exactly happy about the situation. |
| 285 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: The muscle growth shreds Dr. Banner's clothes whenever he transforms into the Hulk, causing the character to always be portrayed without a shirt on. |

| 291 | --> Battle mode initiated. |
| 292 | -->'''Debut:''' ''Tales of Suspense'' #39 (March 1963) |
| 293 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/EricLoomis |
| 294 | |
| 295 | Captured by a terrorist group in a war-torn region, Tony Stark created a battle suit to help him escape. Afterwards, he improved the battle suit to become ComicBook/IronMan, and has dedicated himself to protecting the peace since. |
| 296 | ---- |
| 297 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: In one of his winquotes, he explains to his opponent that his armor was able to analyze their weaknesses to give him the advantage. |
| 298 | * AvengersAssemble: He yells this when he is the first person picked on a team out of himself, Cap, Thor or Hawkeye. |
| 299 | * {{BFG}}: Lampshaded. He calls his Proton Cannon "the big one" when the hyper combo is activated. |
| 300 | * CaptainPatriotic: Played with. His DLC costume would ''seem'' to make him into this, but it's actually [[ComicBook/DarkAvengers Norman Osborn's Iron Patriot]] armor. |
| 301 | ---> '''Ugh.''' I can ''still'' smell Norman Osborn's hair gel. |
| 302 | * ChestBlaster: The Unibeam fires a blast of concentrated energy from the pentagon in his chest. Iron Avenger (his Level 3 hyper) is an even stronger version that deals a good 50 hits worth of damage. |
| 303 | * ChivalrousPervert: He hits on all the girls [[BestialityIsDepraved sans Amaterasu]] in his pre-fight and win quotes. He also has a special win screen quote should he defeat Morrigan last: |
| 304 | ---> I think we can sort out our differences over dinner. I'll have the best chefs flown in. |
| 305 | ** Concerningly, he also flirts with [[{{Ephebophile}} Tron]] and [[ILoveTheDead Hsien-Ko]]. Perhaps the developers weren't thinking when they did that. |
| 306 | * DoubleJump: Courtesy of the repulsor boosters in his boots. A certain input allows you to extend this to full-on flight. |
| 307 | * FirstNameBasis: When he switches out with Captain America, he yells "Steve!". Also "Logan!" for Wolverine, and "Clint!" for Hawkeye. |
| 308 | * {{Flight}}: He's capable of this for a short time. |
| 309 | %%* GlowingEyesOfDoom: In his Level 3 hyper. |
| 310 | * {{Hammerspace}}: The Proton Cannon is a massive weapon that he can create out of thin air. |
| 311 | * HandBlast: His signature repulsor rays, emitted by holding his hands together above his head like in [=MvC2=]. |
| 312 | * OhCrap: When fighting The Hulk, he really wishes he had come decked out in the Hulkbuster Armor. |
| 313 | * PowerEchoes: He gets a bit of this, mostly due to robotic modulation for his voice while suited-up. |
| 314 | * PoweredArmor: The poster boy of this trope, clad in a suit of powerful high-tech armor that he designed himself to escape captivity from terrorists. The armor in this game is designed after the Extremis suit from the comics. |
| 315 | * ShoulderCannon: Used to fire off his Smart Bombs, as well as a missile in a crouching punch attack. |
| 316 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNNQBAj10n4 His theme]] is a remix of War Machine's from ''[=MvC=]'', which is at the same time a remix of Tony's theme from ''Marvel Super Heroes'', making it ''a rearrangement of a rearrangement''. This dates back to the first ''Marvel vs. Capcom'', where Rhodey took Tony's place due to legal issues (in ''[=MvC2=]'', the two underwent DivergentCharacterEvolution, and Tony's a one-man show again in ''3''). |

| 321 | [[quoteright:231:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/231px-Magento_MvsC3-FTW_3092.PNG]] |
| 322 | --> Learn now... why they call me the "Master of Magnetism"! |
| 323 | -->'''Debut:''' ''The X-Men'' #1 (September 1963) |
| 324 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TomKane |
| 325 | |
| 326 | With almost complete control of magnetism, [[ComicBook/{{Magneto}} Erik Magnus Lehnsherr]], birth name Max Eisenhardt, is one of the most powerful mutants alive. A survivor of the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II, he developed the idea that genetically superior mutants should be the ones to rule over mankind. Fighting for the sake of mutantkind, he is a calculating character who stops at nothing to achieve his goals. |
| 327 | ---- |
| 328 | * AffablyEvil: One of the most likable antagonists in the game, and surprisingly polite in his interactions with a few characters (particularly his fellow X-Men). This gets reflected in his personal ending, where he [[spoiler:converts Galactus' spaceship into a safe haven for mutantkind instead of using it to declare war on his enemies.]] |
| 329 | * AntiVillain: He only wants what's best for mutantkind, but resorts to some truly heinous acts in his quest to protect his kind. Case in point, he joins Victor's LegionOfDoom in this game and attempts to conquer both the Marvel and Capcom universes. |
| 330 | * AscendedMeme: One of his alternate colors is the one from the MAHVEL BAYBEE video. Deadpool also quotes the video when facing Magneto. |
| 331 | * BadassCape: Two of the most recognizable elements of his design are this and his CoolHelmet. |
| 332 | * BattleAura: The power of magnetism lets him glow with purple electricity. In the sprite-based installments of the series, Magneto had a passive aura in his hands during his standing animation. This was actually ''patched'' into later versions of ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' for RuleOfCool. |
| 333 | * CounterAttack: His Force Field special works as this, but also has projectile properties. |
| 334 | * DifficultButAwesome: Much like in ''[=MvC2=]'', he still has his hard-to-execute loop combos. |
| 335 | * EvilLaugh: He laughs if he manages to hit his opponent with his level 3 Hyper Combo, as well as during one of his possible winquotes. |
| 336 | * FirstNameBasis: He calls the X-Men by first name, as a nod to their relatively close association. Magneto has even joined the X-Men more than once, including ''Nation X''. |
| 337 | * {{Flight}}: One of his special moves is the ability to fly through the air for a couple of seconds. Great for extending combos or repositioning, but also makes him unable to block. |
| 338 | * GlassCannon: He has a pretty low 850,000 life, but his loop combos do pretty good damage and he retains much of his speed from ''[=MvC2=]''. |
| 339 | * GravityIsPurple: Magneto's elemental attacks and specials are purple colored, and are far more focused on his gravitational abilities than his signature magnet powers. |
| 340 | * GravityMaster: His special moves focus on his gravitational powers, such as binding his foe to the ground with Hyper Grav or at the start of the Gravity Squeeze hyper combo. In ''Ultimate'', he gains the ability to further attract and repel his opponents. |
| 341 | * GroundPound: In his Magnetic Shockwave hyper, Magneto punches the ground to unleash an electric shockwave that covers the entire screen in front of him. |
| 342 | * HumansAreBastards: The character's most distinguishing trait is his venomous disdain for regular humans. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation This doesn't stop him from being partnered with the likes of Frank West and Phoenix Wright.]] |
| 343 | * InsistentTerminology: A variant; he references the Marvel Universe's definition of mutants [[note]]Mutants have their powers/genetic abnormalities from birth, mutates -- such as Spider-Man and Deadpool -- gain their powers from other sources but were born as normal humans; Wesker falls under the latter category.[[/note]] when addressing Wesker's bioaugmentation, saying that "Mutants are born, not created". |
| 344 | * LongRangeFighter: Downplayed in that, while many of his specials are ranged attacks, he's often used to attack up close. |
| 345 | * OnlySaneMan: The only one out of the fighters who recognizes and prepares to battle Galactus in the ''Ultimate'' intro movie. |
| 346 | * PowerFloats: He never walks, instead using his control over gravity to float over the ground. |
| 347 | * PragmaticVillainy: [[spoiler:His ending has him opt for using Galactus' worldship as a safe home for mutants rather than conquering Earth.]] |
| 348 | %%* SelectiveMagnetism |
| 349 | %%* SlideAttack |
| 350 | * ThinkHappyThoughts: He needs to learn to do this, according to Morrigan (when she wins) at least. |
| 351 | * VisionaryVillain: His desire to change the world into one where mutants can live in peace is subtly referenced in both his generic intro and winquotes. |
| 352 | --> "Allow me to share my dream for this world." |
| 353 | --> "The time for subtlety is passing. Now is the time for change." |
| 354 | * WorthyOpponent: Magneto expresses disappointment that Vergil is not a mutant, as the latter's fighting skill would make a fine addition to his Brotherhood of Mutants. |
| 355 | * YouRemindMeOfX: Twin brothers Dante and Vergil remind Magneto of his own son, Quicksilver, due to their brash and arrogant attitudes and their white hair[[note]]This doubles as a MythologyGag, as one of Dante's Styles in his home games is actually named "Quicksilver"[[/note]]. |
| 356 | * YouWillNotEvadeMe: His Hyper Grav, if it successfully hits the opponent, will drag him/her closer to him. Also, one of his ''Ultimate''-only moves ("Attraction") involves him regularly pulling his enemy closer to him, wherever they may be. |

| 363 | -->'''Debut:''' ''Tales of Suspense'' #94 (October 1967) |
| 364 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/WallyWingert |
| 365 | |
| 366 | Formerly just a regular human, George Tarleton was forced to become a living human experiment and was subsequently turned into ComicBook/{{MODOK}} ([[FunWithAcronyms Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing]][[note]][[DependingOnTheWriter The "M" sometimes stands for "Mobile"]][[/note]]). Calling himself the Scientist Supreme and using his vast intellect and psionic powers, he annihilated all those who were involved in his experiment. |
| 367 | |
| 368 | M.O.D.O.K. has everything you could want in a keepaway-focused character: a barrier wall, lasers, flight in place of a jump, attacks that knock opponents away from him, floating bombs, and special cube traps that let him use enhanced versions of each. |
| 369 | ---- |
| 370 | * AmbidextrousSprite: Despite using 3D models for the game, his flying chair. |
| 371 | * AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Regardless of his [[ButtMonkey treatment]] here, one must remember that M.O.D.O.K. is the leader of A.I.M. |
| 372 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: |
| 373 | --> By my calculations, you'll be dead within seconds! |
| 374 | * AxCrazy: If you think he has evolved beyond the joys of murder, you'd be wrong. The "K" is his name does stand for "Killing", after all, and he repeatedly expresses interest in dissecting his opponents ForScience. |
| 375 | * BadassBoast: A surprising one, delivered to ''Nemesis'' of all people. |
| 376 | --> I've had experiments like you, I call them failures. |
| 377 | * BeehiveBarrier: Whenever he blocks, these appear. |
| 378 | * ButtMonkey: As the Episode 3 trailer shows, he gets his cables cut by X-23's claws, then smacked into oblivion by the Hulk. |
| 379 | * CardCarryingVillain[=/=]FunWithAcronyms: '''M'''obile '''O'''rganism '''D'''esigned '''O'''nly for '''K'''illing. That not enough for you? |
| 380 | * {{Cephalothorax}}: He is basically a giant head with limbs. Other characters mock him by calling him an evil Humpty Dumpty. He actually ''does'' have a body, but it's severely atrophied and hidden within his hoverchair. |
| 381 | * CombatTentacles: The mechanical version, used for his [[ShockAndAwe Killer Illumination]] hyper. |
| 382 | * {{Crossdresser}}: He has an alternate costume that makes him appear as M.O.D.A.M, a make-up wearing female counterpart. The costume still uses his voice, though. |
| 383 | * DeflectorShields: He can produce one. |
| 384 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: When he defeats Amaterasu, Thor, or Shuma-Gorath, he brags that he can add killing a god to his resume. |
| 385 | * DifficultButAwesome: His moves are unorthodox, but he can be a deadly fighter once you master him. As many fans said, his powers are equivalent to trolling. |
| 386 | * DudeLooksLikeALady: Sort of. One of his alternate costumes is patterned after his female counterpart, M.O.D.A.M. [[ViewerGenderConfusion but still looks and sounds like M.O.D.O.K.]] [[{{Gonk}} and is every bit as ugly]]. |
| 387 | * EvilLaugh: Let's just say he does this many times. |
| 388 | ** LaughingMad: One of his winquotes. |
| 389 | * EvilTastesGood: He's got a sweet tooth for murder, it would seem. |
| 390 | --> Death is like candy! |
| 391 | * EvilutionaryBiologist: The leader of an organization of mad scientists, and he mentions to multiple other characters that he plans to dissect them. |
| 392 | * {{Flight}}: M.O.D.O.K. has the longest flight in the game. And where other characters need a special input in order to activate their flight, M.O.D.O.K. can activate his own if you simply press up. |
| 393 | * FauxAffablyEvil: He's genuinely evil and likes to kill, but he has a number of moments that make him look hilarious. He can also be AxCrazy or LaughablyEvil, sometimes both at the same time. |
| 394 | * ForScience: |
| 395 | -->(''after defeating Rocket Raccoon'') I defeated a raccoon! SCIENCE! |
| 396 | * {{Gonk}}: Though it's not as ratcheted up as in the comics, in all fairness. |
| 397 | --> '''Chris''': I've seen some God-forsaken monsters in my time, but you are by far the ugliest. |
| 398 | --> (''Victory screen vs. Shuma Gorath'') And they call ''me'' odd looking. |
| 399 | * HeadBlast: M.O.D.O.K.'s Psionic Blaster is a beam of telepathic energy fired from his forehead. |
| 400 | * HomingProjectile: Subverted with his Balloon Bomb, which is just semi-homing (it will stop moving after some distance), but played straight with his Jamming Bomb which slowly homes in on his opponent. |
| 401 | * IllKillYou |
| 402 | --> ''(intro vs. Rocket Raccoon'') You're cute. Time to die! |
| 403 | * MadScientist: Leads an entire ''organization'' of them. |
| 404 | * MagikarpPower: How his Analyze Cubes work. Each time one successfully hits, his forehead gem begins to [[PowerGlows glow]] and his specials and hypers do more damage and/or gain new properties (his triangular energy barrier grows in size and his smart bombs [[InterfaceScrew mess with your controls]], among others). |
| 405 | ** Also, a Hyper Psionic Blaster fully charged through this method (after 9 hits from Analyze Cubes) can inflict massive damage. |
| 406 | * MechanicallyUnusualFighter: You only need to look at him to guess that he isn't gonna play like a standard fighter. M.O.D.O.K. is an extreme zoner who dominates the battlefield from afar with masses of projectiles and traps, having barely any close-ranged attacks in his moveset. He is incapable of jumping normally (outside of super-jumping to reach launched opponents). Pressing "up" will put him in a permanent flight state, which gives him good aerial mobility. His Analyze Cube ability allows him to level-up his Psionic Blaster attacks with every hit. |
| 407 | * MirrorMatch: Lampshaded. |
| 408 | --> (''to himself'') Never again will I forget to lobotomize one of my clones! |
| 409 | * MonochromaticEyes: Milky white eyes with no visible pupils. One alternate costume makes them [[RedEyesTakeWarning red]]. |
| 410 | * PowerCrystal: On his head, which helps him to harness his psionic abilities. |
| 411 | %%* RedEyesTakeWarning: In one of his alternate color schemes. |
| 412 | * TheRival: Cap (see his section above) and surprisingly, Crimson Viper. |
| 413 | --> '''C. Viper''': [''on her phone''] I've found M.O.D.O.K., the leader of A.I.M... Understood. |
| 414 | * SkewedPriorities: His opposing Galactus was less about preventing the destruction of the planet... and more about acquiring Galactus's hat for himself. He wears it in his ending. |
| 415 | * SoLongSuckers: Every time he tags out. |
| 416 | --> This isn't over! |
| 417 | * {{Troll}}: According to fans, at least, he could give '''''[[VideoGame/{{BlazBlue}} Hazama]]''''' a run for his money. |
| 418 | ** [[AscendedMeme It even tends to show up in some of his quotes]]: |
| 419 | -->'''M.O.D.O.K. (before fighting Nemesis T-Type):''' I've had experiments like you. I call them failures! |

| 440 | * BattleAura: Her second level 1 hyper generates an aura that replenishes her red health quickly. |
| 441 | * BeamSpam: Every normal attack that Dark Phoenix performs launches several wisps of fire at the opponent. Couple this with her other projectiles and... [[BulletHell You know the result]]. |
| 442 | * BlankWhiteEyes: As Dark Phoenix. |
| 443 | * DeathActivatedSuperpower: If she gets [=KO'd=] with five super meters, she'll automatically transform into the Dark Phoenix. |
| 444 | * DeathAsGameMechanic: Dying can be part of your strategy when playing the game as Phoenix. When she is defeated with 5 hyper bars, she'll be revived to full health, transform into Dark Phoenix and become much more powerful. |
| 445 | * DifficultButAwesome: Her health is so low that some level 3 hypers or just a particularly good combo can one-hit kill her. However, her damage output, mix-ups, hypers and special abilities mean that getting in that combo can be pretty difficult. |
| 446 | * FaceHeelTurn: During her ending, [[spoiler:Dark Phoenix completely takes over and proclaims that the other heroes' troubles are just beginning.]] |
| 447 | * {{Fireballs}}: Her TK Shot special fires a sphere of psychokinetic flames from her hand. Dark Phoenix fires two balls simultaneously. |
| 448 | * FirstNameBasis: She calls her X-Men buds (Logan/Wolverine, Laura/X-23, Ororo/Storm, and Erik/Magneto) by name. |
| 449 | * FlashStep: Her Teleport move allows her to teleport in front of, behind, or above her opponent. |
| 450 | * {{Flight}}: She's capable of this for a short time, which gives her formidable mobility when paired with her teleport. |
| 451 | * FragileSpeedster: Until she goes Dark, she has to rely on her ridiculously good mobility and multiple angles of attack, because her health is sub-par. |
| 452 | * GlassCannon: Strong damage, but the lowest health in the entire game. This gets even more pronounced as Dark Phoenix, as her damage output goes up even higher, but her health will constantly drain. |
| 453 | * HealThyself: Her Healing Field hyper quickly restores her red health meter. |
| 454 | * HomingProjectile: The strong version of her TK Shot homes in on opponent. |
| 455 | * LongRangeFighter: She can combo her teleport with TK Shot and TK Trap to avoid her opponent while chiping at their health with projectiles. Dark Phoenix further enforces this by shooting small fiery feathers forward whenever an attack button is pressed. |
| 456 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: Host of the Phoenix Force, a destructive cosmic entity that has decimated entire solar systems in the past. |
| 457 | * PhysicalGod: The Phoenix Force grants her incredible cosmic power in addition to her powerful mutant telepathic abilities, but at the cost of desperately struggling to control them, lest the Dark Phoenix awaken and destroy all around her... |
| 458 | * PlayingWithFire: The Phoenix Force manifests by giving her access to cosmic fire attacks. |
| 459 | --> '''Thor''': Ye be a fiery woman with spirit to match the bravest Asgardian! Alas, your skills fell short. |
| 460 | * PowerGivesYouWings: |
| 461 | ** Her Level 1 Phoenix Inferno gives her fiery wings, which she then shoots forwards to damage her opponent. |
| 462 | ** She sprouts a pair of [[HotWings fiery wings]] upon transforming into Dark Phoenix. |
| 463 | * PsychoticSmirk: As Dark Phoenix, she sports one on the victory screen. |
| 464 | * SayMyName: Her death quote. She cries out for Cyclops. |
| 465 | --> ''Phoenix'': Scott... |
| 466 | %%* SlideAttack |
| 467 | * SplitPersonalityTakeover: In her ending, [[spoiler:the struggle to defeat Galactus puts a strain on Jean, allowing the Dark Phoenix to fully consume her.]] |
| 468 | * SuperpoweredEvilSide: Upon defeat, the [[SuperMode Dark Phoenix]] rises, giving her incredible offensive skills, at the cost of driving her destructively insane. |
| 469 | --> '''Vergil''': There's a darker power that lies dormant in you. Why do you hesitate to embrace it? |
| 470 | * TrapMaster: Her TK Trap special creates a fiery emblem, which hangs in the air for a while before shooting a projectile forward. |
| 471 | * YouRemindMeOfX: She notices some similarities between Morrigan and the X-Men villain Selene, who somewhat resembles a succubus. |
| 472 | --> "You remind me of Selene, maybe that's why I didn't take it easy on you." |

| 478 | --> [[AC:Attention: cease and desist.]] |
| 479 | -->'''Debut:''' ''The X-Men'' #14 (November 1965) |
| 480 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JimWard |
| 481 | |
| 482 | A robot mutant hunter developed by Bolivar Trask, a scientist who felt that mutants were becoming a threat to mankind. Without developing their own artificial intelligence, [[ComicBook/XMen Sentinels]] dutifully obey their orders, no matter who gives them. |
| 483 | ---- |
| 484 | * BreathWeapon: Its standard H attack is a laser which the Sentinel shoots from its mouth. |
| 485 | * {{Flight}}: Capable of this for a short time. |
| 486 | %%* FourFingeredHands |
| 487 | * GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: During its Sentinel Force (and its hyper variant), it does this to call forth missiles. |
| 488 | * HeroKiller: Should the Sentinel win a battle against Magneto or Wolverine, it will proclaim that "the target has been terminated". In the former's case, it will also declare that its next target shall be the leader of the X-Men, Charles Xavier. |
| 489 | * HumongousMecha: [[NotDrawnToScale Smaller than (most of) its comic counterparts]] (especially with his full-sized brothers in the background in the ComicBook/DaysOfFuturePast stage), but still by far the second largest playable character, after ComicBook/{{Galactus}}. His leg even clips through other character models when he calls them in for an assist. |
| 490 | * HunterOfMonsters: Sentinels are machines built with the explicit purpose of hunting down mutants. This leads Magneto to label it as an abomination, and Spencer to call it a failure of human engineering. |
| 491 | --> ''(Victory quote against the X-Men, Magneto and Deadpool[[note]]Who is not a mutant[[/note]])'': [[AC:Mutant entity eliminated. Operation successful.]] |
| 492 | * InvulnerableAttack: Its normal attack can disperse projectiles. Even more fittingly, Hard Drive is ''completely'' invulnerable throughout its duration. If two Sentinels do Hard Drive one after another, the one that did it ''second'' lands a hit or two only at the end. |
| 493 | * KillerRobot: Its main purpose is hunting down and terminating people with latent mutant genes. If the Sentinel meets Nova, it inquires if he is a mutant (he's not), and after the fight will also begin wondering whether it should start killing members of the Nova Corps as well. |
| 494 | * LagCancel: It can cancel its dash with crouching and then dashing again, making it quicker to approach opponents. |
| 495 | * LightningBruiser: Even after having its [[SuperToughness ample supply of health]] reduced in a patch, Sentinel still hits quite hard and can more than keep up with characters thanks to the aforementioned LagCancel. Most of his attacks are fairly slow, however. |
| 496 | * MachineMonotone: Being a robot, it speaks like this. |
| 497 | * {{Nerf}}: Received a severe health nerf (from 1.3 million to around 910k) with the March 22nd, 2011 patch. He now only marginally outdoes Spider-Man, Dante, and several other {{Glass Cannon}}s and {{Fragile Speedster}}s. ''Ultimate'' brings him down even further to 900000. Even with these downgrades, many tier lists have him placed at the top or close to it. |
| 498 | * OminousLatinChanting: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxD0dWMbO5I Its theme.]] |
| 499 | * OriginalGeneration: In a loose sense. The playable Sentinel seen in the ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' series is a unique variant called the COTA-94 model (a reference to its video game debut, ''VideoGame/XMenChildrenOfTheAtom'') and has a large range of hidden weaponry and transforming abilities that ordinary Sentinels aren't capable of. COTA-94 is also [[NotDrawnToScale significantly smaller than most Sentinels]], which are typically around the size of a large building. Some standard-issue Sentinels can be seen in the background of the Days of Future Past stage for comparison. |
| 500 | * PowerEchoes: Sentinels are androids, so their voices are naturally robotic with a reverberating echo. |
| 501 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: It has shining red robot eyes and is certainly a dangerous KillerRobot. |
| 502 | %%* RoboSpeak |
| 503 | * RocketPunch: One of its specials shoots its fist a short distance forward, which the Sentinel then retracts back into its arm socket. |
| 504 | * SecretCharacter: Requires 4000 Player Points to be unlocked in the vanilla version of the game. |
| 505 | * ShockAndAwe: Its Plasma Storm hyper produces an electric SphereOfDestruction between its palms. |
| 506 | * TropeName: Pressing the Taunt button causes the Sentinel to randomly proclaim "Undermine enemy's confidence!" |
| 507 | * ZergRush: Its Sentinel Force special and its Hyper counterpart summon waves of smaller Sentinels to collide with the opponent. |
| 508 | * ZerothLawRebellion: Its ending. [[spoiler:Just like in ''VideoGame/XMenChildrenOfTheAtom'', the Sentinels begin hunting down anything that isn't an ordinary human (including superpowered humans like Ryu and ''Dan'' from the Street Fighter series) and dominate the world.]] Even less happily in Ultimate, [[spoiler:with the Master Mold acquiring Galactus' worldship, it now has the ability to eradicate its targets in other planets and dimensions. The Sentinels themselves even take on an appearance more similar to Galactus himself.]] |

| 514 | -->Today, I'm JudgeJuryAndExecutioner. |
| 515 | -->'''Debut:''' ''Savage She-Hulk'' #1 (February 1980) |
| 516 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MariaCanalsBarrera |
| 517 | |
| 518 | Bruce Banner's (Hulk) cousin. After being gravely injured, [[ComicBook/SheHulk Jennifer Walters]] received a blood transfusion from Banner which allowed her to transform into She-Hulk. Her transformation extends as far as her personality, going from meek and mousy to strong-willed and confident. |
| 519 | ---- |
| 520 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Green skin, just like her cousin. |
| 521 | * AmazonianBeauty: One of her winquotes has She-Hulk refer to herself as "700 pounds of lean, green muscle". |
| 522 | * AscendedExtra: She was one of the frozen warriors in ''VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroes'' before making a playable appearance here. |
| 523 | * AssKicksYou: One her Hyper Combos ends with an earth-shaking butt-drop onto the opponent. |
| 524 | * BoisterousBruiser: Has a lot of fun beating people up and loves boasting about how awesome she is. |
| 525 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: In her interactions with Deadpool, She-Hulk reminds him that she is also capable of breaking the fourth wall. She threatens to beat him up with a health bar, and swears to defeat him in [=MvC4=] if such game is ever made[[note]]Although [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcomInfinite when it was made]], [[HarsherInHindsight neither character was in it]] due to ExecutiveMeddling[[/note]]. |
| 526 | * CarFu: Her Level 3 Hyper, Road Rage (aka Sunday Driver), involves flattening her opponent with a nearby car. Sometimes she'll just let the car go straight, crashing into the enemy as it goes. |
| 527 | ** EveryCarIsAPinto: The car explodes at the end of the move... for no real reason. |
| 528 | * CompositeCharacter: Every She-Hulk costume in the game is Jennifer Walters in personality, but only a few actually represent what she looks like. For the other costumes, Capcom chose Lyra (Hulk's daughter, wearing a Frightful Four uniform), [[ComicBook/UltimateMarvel Ultimate]] She-Hulk (Betty Ross), and Red She-Hulk (Betty Ross of the core universe). |
| 529 | * DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength: Absolutely ''wrecks'' the judge's bench when given her own [[CourtroomAntics court show]], scaring the crap out of [[Franchise/AceAttorney Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth]]. |
| 530 | * FirstNameBasis: When switched-out, she calls Hulk "Bruce", and refers to Iron Man as "Tony". |
| 531 | * FunPersonified: One of the most fun-loving and upbeat characters on the roster. It's hard not to have a good time when she's around. |
| 532 | * GeniusBruiser: She's a very successful lawyer in her civilian identity, making [[Franchise/AceAttorney Phoenix Wright]] her [[WorthyOpponent main rival]] in ''Ultimate''. Also, unlike her cousin ([[SplitPersonality most of the time]]), she retains her full intelligence when in her gamma-powered form. |
| 533 | %%* GoodBadGirl |
| 534 | * HairFlip: Does one after her new lamppost swing special in ''Ultimate''. |
| 535 | * {{Hammerspace}}: Her Level 3 special causes a speeding car to appear regardless of arena, which includes [[Franchise/ResidentEvil an underground Tyrant lab]], [[ComicBook/SpiderMan a rising platform in New York]], the [[AirborneAircraftCarrier SHIELD Helicarrier]], [[VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins a raft floating in a river of lava]], and [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Asgard]]. |
| 536 | * HelloAttorney: Of the AmazonianBeauty variety. She may be a Hulk, but she's a very good-looking one, who happens to be a registered lawyer. Her DLC outfit is even a practical, and yet no less attractive, pantsuit for her to wear into court. |
| 537 | * ImprobableWeaponUser: In ''Ultimate'', she is granted a new special move where she swings a lamppost to hit the opponent, leading to a wall bounce that can extend combos. She also throws a passing speeding car in her Level 3 Hyper. |
| 538 | * LastNameBasis: When switching out, Phoenix Wright calls her "Ms. Walters". |
| 539 | * LeotardOfPower: She wears her iconic purple-and-white swimsuit-looking costume, and as for power, well... she's a ''Hulk''. |
| 540 | * LightningBruiser: Like Hulk, she hits hard. Unlike him, she has a special move to get a running start. |
| 541 | * LikeBrotherAndSister: With the Hulk. The two share a very strong bond with each other, despite being cousins and not siblings. |
| 542 | %%* MartialPacifist |
| 543 | * MediumAwareness: She-Hulk has special dialogue with Deadpool [[LampshadeHanging where she mentions how popular she was in the early '90s, as well as her own habit of breaking the fourth wall]]. In another quote, she threatens to kick Deadpool's butt should there ever be a ''Marvel vs. Capcom 4''. |
| 544 | * MoreDeadlyThanTheMale: Lampshaded in her interactions with Hulk, when she states that the female is the deadlier of the species. |
| 545 | * NotDrawnToScale: In a group render, they have her basically being the same height as Trish, Chun-Li, Jill Valentine, and Crimson Viper. |
| 546 | * OneWomanWail: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKdxCFxKkYM Her theme.]] |
| 547 | %%* SlideAttack: That got {{Nerf}}ed in Ultimate. |
| 548 | * StatuesqueStunner: She isn't just the tallest of the ladies, she's one of the tallest characters in the game, ''period''. And she looks no less fine because of it. |
| 549 | * {{Stripperific}}: Her LeotardOfPower. |
| 550 | * WrestlerInAllOfUs: Compared to her cousin, she's more of a grappler than a bruiser. She uses a clothesline, elbow drop, dropkick, and Senton Bomb. |
| 551 | * WrittenSoundEffect: Many of her special attacks cause onomatopoeias such as KRACK!, WHAM! and WHUNK! to appear on the screen. |

| 556 | [[quoteright:251:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/251px-Shuma-Gorath_MvsC3-FTW_5798.PNG]] |
| 557 | --> Embrace... CHAOS! |
| 558 | -->'''Debut:''' ''Marvel Premiere'' #5 (November 1972) |
| 559 | -->'''Voiced by''': Creator/PaulDobson |
| 560 | |
| 561 | God of another dimension. As he will assume the form of whatever it is that people fear, he has no true form. Having taken a liking to Earth, he has tried to rule over the planet many times since the prehistoric age, but has usually been thwarted by a shaman or magic user, such as Doctor Strange. |
| 562 | ---- |
| 563 | * AccidentalHero: In his ending, he defeats Galactus and becomes a popular Japanese game show presenter. |
| 564 | * AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Quite a drastic one. In the comics, Shuma-Gorath is a KnightOfCerebus whose presence in a story usually indicates that ''shit is really going down''. He's a godlike EldritchAbomination who only cares about spreading chaos and destruction throughout the cosmos, and there's certainly nothing lighthearted about him. The ''Capcom Vs.'' series gives him a comedic characterisation and his threat level is considerably reduced, since his canonical power would dwarf every FinalBoss in the series. |
| 565 | * AdaptationalWimp: Again, in the comics he's an all-powerful EldritchAbomination who, under normal circumstances, could win any fight in this game with the blink of an eye. Here, he's a regular-sized squid man whose attacks basically extend to hitting people with his tentacles and shooting a laser from his eye. |
| 566 | * AffablyEvil: Capcom's developers often interpret him this way in spite of his [[KnightOfCerebus usual characterisation in the comics]]. After his debut in the series, in which his ending was [[MultiversalConqueror fitting of his status]], almost all of Shuma Gorath's subsequent endings consists of him doing something not-evil to outright good; and in this instalment things were no different, with him [[RefugeInAudacity becoming a Japanese game show host]]. |
| 567 | * AscendedExtra: Shuma-Gorath is likely the most obscure character Capcom have ever adapted to the series, as he only made a small handful of appearances in ''ComicBook/DoctorStrange'' issues and never appeared in any other media. Nevertheless, Capcom seem to have grown very attached to the character as he has been playable in a whopping five instalments of the ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' series (on top of cameo appearances in other titles). Their strange love for Shuma is such that Capcom actually rebelled against Marvel as they insisted on including him in ''[=MVC3=]'' even though Marvel were against it, until Marvel conceded by allowing him to be DLC. |
| 568 | * BadassArmFold: At the start of his victory pose, he crosses two of his tentacles, looking pretty pleased with himself. |
| 569 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: His victory pose involves him running at the camera and jumping towards it. |
| 570 | * CatchPhrase: His phrase "Waste of flesh" has stuck with him in each of the games he has been in. |
| 571 | * CombatTentacles: He fights mainly by swinging his tentacles at the opponents. The developers stated that this is why he made the cut over Doctor Strange in the vanilla version, as Capcom Japan wanted something more creative than a "guy with a cape". |
| 572 | * TheComicallySerious: In his victory quote against Deadpool, he says that he does not appreciate being called "calamari" and asks what a "dipping sauce" is, in a completely serious tone. |
| 573 | * DownloadableContent: Initially, for the [=PS3=] version. This caused him and fellow DLC character Jill Valentine to be TemporaryOnlineContent when Capcom's license with Marvel expired, but since then a [=PS4=] and Steam port was released and announced with both DLC characters included by default, averting both tropes. |
| 574 | * DramaPreservingHandicap: In terms of canon PowerLevels, Shuma-Gorath is, by far, the most powerful character in the game. He's more powerful than Galactus, the game's FinalBoss. Fellow dimensional entity Dormammu, who would otherwise be the uncontested holder without him, is canonically considered to be "nothing" compared to Shuma to the point where even ''he'' doesn't dare trifle with him or invade the Chaos Dimension, and for further perspective Dormammu is more powerful than ''Odin''. Not only is PowerCreepPowerSeep in play, but the game provides a reason for why he can lose: He's outside the Chaos Dimension, where he's weaker. Presumably, this is how anyone can actually beat him. |
| 575 | -->'''Shuma-Gorath:''' Imagine if you faced me in my own Chaos Dimension, fool! I am omnipotent there. |
| 576 | * EvilLaugh: Sometimes he introduces himself before a match with cackling laughter. |
| 577 | * EvilTastesGood: One of his intro quotes has him state that his opponent's fear tastes delicious. |
| 578 | * ExtraEyes: One of his costumes is based on Quoggoth, an EldritchAbomination with countless eyes. |
| 579 | * EyeBeam: He can fire blasts from his eyes as a regular attack, special move, and hyper. |
| 580 | * FantasticRacism: He despises Vergil for being a half-demon, calling him an embarrassment to demons everywhere. |
| 581 | * HeelFaceTurn: Shuma's ending involves him [[spoiler:becoming the unlikely savior of the Earth, even though he intended to conquer it. He eventually accepts this and gets his own game show.]] |
| 582 | * IllKillYou: If he faces Vergil, he will threaten to eviscerate the half-demon. |
| 583 | %%* LargeHam |
| 584 | * MultiversalConqueror: If he wins against Dormammu or Dr. Strange, he will claim their dimensions as his own. |
| 585 | * NotDrawnToScale: In the ''Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' intro trailer, Shuma-Gorath is shown to be huge. Big enough to break through an entire building. Big enough for one of his tentacles to be able to completely flatten Chris. Big enough for Felicia to look like an insect on his head. In-game? He meets eye to torso with most of the cast. The size presented in the intro is far closer to the size he is in the comics. |
| 586 | * {{Oculothorax}}: His main distinguishing feature besides his tentacles is his giant singular red eye in the centre of his body. |
| 587 | %%* PowerEchoes |
| 588 | * PlotIrrelevantVillain: As usual in this series, Shuma-Gorath has no impact on the main villain's plans (in this case, Galactus). |
| 589 | * PowerCreepPowerSeep: Canonically, he would likely be the most powerful playable character in the game, above even the Phoenix Force or a fully powered Galactus, and being the only Doctor Strange enemy who likely exceeds Dormammu. Shuma's only weakness in the comics is being magically banished by high-level beings. Any punch or kick to him he would scoff at. His power (and size) is also limited directly by how much influence he holds over that dimension. He doesn't hold much sway over Earth's dimension, so it's very possible that he's already at his full strength. |
| 590 | * PowerGlows: If you look carefully, there's a red glow underneath Shuma's body when he's on the ground. |
| 591 | * RedBaron: The Lord of Chaos. |
| 592 | * SmugSuper: Even with only one eye and no other facial features, you can tell he's a smug bastard. He's the only character who seems to go out of his way to strike poses after he attacks, whether this be his BadassArmFold or his B-Boy stance. |
| 593 | * UnskilledButStrong: If his bio's statistics are to be believed, at least. His fighting ability is very low, while strength, speed and stamina are maxed out, with energy projection being one bar away from its maximum as well. |
| 594 | * WalkingWasteland: Wherever he steps, a small red aura is left behind. |
| 595 | * VillainousCrush: He proposes to Hsien-Ko in his winquote, offering her control over many dimensions as a dowry. |
| 596 | * YouWillBeAssimilated: One of his generic winquotes has him state that the world will be devoured by chaos, after which everything will become a part of him. |

| 604 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JoshKeaton |
| 605 | |
| 606 | While attending a public science exhibit, young Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider; this granted him special abilities, and he became the hero ComicBook/SpiderMan. When his beloved uncle was killed by a criminal Peter could have apprehended but chose not to, he swore to live by the creed of "With great power there must also come great responsibility." |
| 607 | ---- |
| 608 | * AllWebbedUp: He has multiple moves that trap his opponent in webbing, including his Web Ball, Web Throw, Ultimate Web Throw, and Maximum Spider. |
| 609 | * BitingTheHandHumor: |
| 610 | ** InUniverse: in his intro against [[BigRedDevil Firebrand]], Spider-Man asks if the demon has any relation to his boss, J. Jonah Jameson. He also asks Ghost Rider if he'd be interested in harvesting JJJ's soul. |
| 611 | ** When defeating Firebrand, he has this to say: |
| 612 | --> You know, you look kind of like [[ComicBook/{{Mephisto}} the guy]] who [[ComicBook/OneMoreDay ruined my marriage]]. |
| 613 | * BuildingSwing: His Web Swing special move has Spider-Man shoot a string upwards, which he then uses to propel himself towards his opponent. |
| 614 | * ComesGreatResponsibility: |
| 615 | ** Spider-Man chastises Wesker in one of his winquotes, saying that the latter has a great power, but is not being very responsible with it. |
| 616 | ** Spoofed in one of his intro quotes, where he exclaims that "With a great power comes a great beatdown!" |
| 617 | ** One of his standard winquotes has him say that "Sometimes with a great power comes the great responsibility to beat the bejeezus out of somebody." |
| 618 | * DivingKick: His Maximum Spider hyper combo has him entangle his opponent in the air with a giant web, after which he delivers a powerful kick from above to smash them back to the ground. |
| 619 | * DownerEnding: His ending, PlayedForLaughs. [[spoiler:After risking his neck to fight Galactus, something he shouldn't be able to do, he tries to sell the pictures to [[DaCheif J. Jonah Jameson]], [[UngratefulBastard who promptly shoots it down because it makes Spidey look heroic]], causing him to question why he even bothers to save people if he doesn't even get respect after saving two different worlds nearly single-handedly.]] |
| 620 | * FirstNameBasis: Calls Wesker "Albert". |
| 621 | * FragileSpeedster: A really quick and agile character, but at the cost of lower health and defense. |
| 622 | * GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: The SuperMovePortraitAttack for his Crawler Assault has him pointing to his opponent before beating them down. |
| 623 | * MirrorMatch: Lampshaded. His winquote against an opposing Spider-Man has him wonder whether that was [[ComicBook/TheCloneSaga a clone]] or [[ComicBook/SecretInvasion a Skrull]]. |
| 624 | * TheNicknamer: He has special tag names for several possible team members: "Maggie!" (Magneto), "Wolvie!" (Wolverine), "Shellhead!" (Iron Man), "Doomsy!" (Dr. Doom), "Hulkster!" (The Hulk), "Tasky!" (Taskmaster) and "[[ComicStrip/DennisTheMenaceUS Mr. Wilson!]]" (Deadpool) are some of them. |
| 625 | * RapidFireFisticuffs: His Crawler Assault hyper has Spider-Man punch his opponents several times in quick succession, producing red and blue blurs with each strike. |
| 626 | * TheRival: To Taskmaster. There's an achievement for winning an online match for beating the latter with Spidey (or the other way around). Ironically, Spidey apparently [[UnknownRival has no idea who Tasky is]] in their intro conversation. |
| 627 | * {{Shoryuken}}: His Spider Sting is a jumping uppercut that can be followed up with a punch that knocks his opponent right back down to Earth. |
| 628 | * WaxingLyrical: This intro line: |
| 629 | --> [[WesternAnimation/SpiderMan1967 Look out! Here comes the Spider-Man!]] |
| 630 | * YouRemindMeOfX: His winquote against Firebrand has him compare the latter with "the guy who [[ComicBook/OneMoreDay ruined (his) marriage]]" (ComicBook/{{Mephisto}}). |

| 641 | Though she survived the ordeal, [[ComicBook/{{Storm|MarvelComics}} Ororo Munroe]]'s parents died when a plane crashed into their home. Being buried under rubble proved a traumatic experience that would leave her with severe claustrophobia. Orphaned, she became a street thief in order to get by. She was later recruited by Charles Xavier, and decided to put her powers to use for good as a member of the ComicBook/XMen. |
| 642 | ---- |
| 643 | * ElementalPowers: Her Hyper Combos can summon an [[AnIcePerson ice storm]], [[BlowYouAway a group of tornadoes]] and [[ShockAndAwe a lightning field]]. |
| 644 | * FlyingFirepower: One of her specials grants her temporary {{Flight}}. The others are projectiles where she conjures lightning bolts and gusts of wind to strike from afar. |
| 645 | * GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: She starts her Hailstorm hyper by pointing her index finger at her opponent, directing the icicles she summons to strike there. |
| 646 | * HappilyMarried: Frequently references her husband, ComicBook/BlackPanther, during and after the fight. Her ending also shows her in Wakanda with him. |
| 647 | * HappyRain: She enjoys some in her VictoryPose with slight RedemptionInTheRain overtones. |
| 648 | * KickChick: An honorable mention. Most of her normal attacks involve kicks accompanied by [[BlowYouAway wind gusts]] or [[ShockAndAwe lightning bursts.]] |
| 649 | * LeotardOfPower: Her iconic black swimsuit-like costume, accompanied by an arm-cape and long leather boots. |
| 650 | %%* LongRangeFighter: Downplayed; same case as Magneto. |
| 651 | * MartialPacifist: Storm treasures peace, and many of her winquotes have her attempting to reason with her defeated opponents. However, she is canonically one of the most powerful members of the X-Men and proves to be a force to be reckoned with when she actualy joins the battle. |
| 652 | --> "This battle could have been avoided. Next time, we must seek a peaceful solution." |
| 653 | * MonochromaticEyes: Her pupils are white and only slightly darker than her sclera. |
| 654 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: She is every weather-related natural disaster crammed into a single person. This is best showcased in her Hailstorm hyper combo, where she rains giant icicles upon the entire field. |
| 655 | * PowerFloats: In her default stance, Storm levitates above the ground by riding on air currents. |
| 656 | * RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: The Queen of Wakanda, and a loyal and powerful member of the X-Men. |
| 657 | * WeatherManipulation: Her iconic mutation. All her basic attacks are punches or kicks empowered by whirlwinds or electricity, while her specials have her conjuring storms to cause damage on a larger scale. |

| 666 | |
| 667 | Kl'rt is a genetically-engineered super soldier created by the Skrulls to defeat the ComicBook/FantasticFour, who stopped their invasion of Earth. His pride and tendency to look down on others is not unique to him, but a characteristic of the Skrull race in general. |
| 668 | ---- |
| 669 | * AllYourPowersCombined: He has the combined abilities of the ComicBook/FantasticFour, including Invisible Woman's DeflectorShields, the Thing's [[MadeOfIron durability]] and [[DishingOutDirt stone hands]], the Human Torch's [[PlayingWithFire pyrokinesis]] and Mr. Fantastic's [[RubberMan elasticity]]. |
| 670 | %%* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: His ending. |
| 671 | %%* AxCrazy |
| 672 | %%* BigNo: His death cry. |
| 673 | * {{Bowdlerise}}: His "He loves you!" line from Vanilla being removed in ''Ultimate'', as the line is in reference to the Secret Invasion storyline, a religiously motivated invasion Super Skrull did not support (he is not overflowing with love for the Earth creatures). |
| 674 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: His winpose is stomping on the camera, [[ScreenTap causing the lens to shatter.]] |
| 675 | * ChargedAttack: His Stone Smite is a charged version of his standing heavy attack. His crouching heavy can also be charged. |
| 676 | %%* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder |
| 677 | * TheEmpire: A lot of his dialogue revolves around how he fights for the glory of the Skrull Empire, and his loyalty to it. |
| 678 | %%* EvilLaugh: During some of his attacks. |
| 679 | * KickThemWhileTheyAreDown: His Worm Squash special, which can only hit a downed opponent. While other fighters have OTG-hitting attacks, he takes this trope literally. |
| 680 | * LagCancel: He can cancel his dash with crouching and then dashing again, making it quicker to approach opponents. |
| 681 | %%* LargeHam |
| 682 | %%* ManipulativeBastard |
| 683 | %%* MetronomicManMashing: His Elastic Slam. |
| 684 | * NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: His Level 3 hyper is a rapid fire series of slams from his stretchy, flaming, Thing-powered fists. |
| 685 | * OutOfCharacterMoment: His Level 2 hyper originally had a soundbite of him saying "He loves you", the ArcWords of the invading Skrulls in ''ComicBook/SecretInvasion''. However, in the comic, K'lrt was actually ''against'' the invasion and never said it. The quote was later patched out. |
| 686 | * PowerEchoes: His voice has an alien-sounding echoey filter to it, and he is certainly powerful. |
| 687 | * PowerGlows: If you look closely, Kl'rt continually gives off small sparkles. |
| 688 | * PunyEarthlings: He has nothing but scorn for his human opponents. |
| 689 | * RapidFireFisticuffs: His Tenderizer special has him repeatedly slam his stretchy arms on the opponent at a ridiculous speed. |
| 690 | * SpectacularSpinning: His Skrull Torch hyper involves him being WreathedInFlames and then spinning wildly forward like a torpedo, which is somewhat similar to [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII M. Bison]]'s Psycho Crusher (especially its super variant). However, Skrull Torch can actually be controlled. |
| 691 | %%* SpinAttack: His Orbital Grudge. |
| 692 | * YouAreACreditToYourRace: After defeating Ryu, he says he considers his abilities "not bad, for a human". |
| 693 | * YouWillNotEvadeMe: His Elastic Slam starts with him grabbing his enemy with his long arms before he [[MetronomicManMashing starts smashing them into the ground]], complete with the famous "Come here!" quote. |

| 702 | |
| 703 | Tony Masters learned many moves by watching videos of heroes in action, and used his photographic reflexes to copy them and make them his own. Considering himself a businessman, ComicBook/{{Taskmaster}} opened a mercenary school for training criminals in the fighting arts. |
| 704 | ---- |
| 705 | * AllYourPowersCombined: True to character, he borrows some of his moves from other characters. Taskmaster brings Hawkeye's famed archery skills in tow, perfectly duplicates Spider-Man's Web Swing, has a CoolSword courtesy of Black Knight, and has "shield skills just like Cap's!" |
| 706 | * AndNinetyNineCents: One of his victory quote has him offering to enroll the opponents in his mercenary training program in exchange for $99,999.99. |
| 707 | %%* BladeSpam: In his Aegis Counter hyper. |
| 708 | * BowAndSwordInAccord: His two main weapons are a sword and a bow, which he mastered by copying the skills of Black Knight and Hawkeye, respectively. |
| 709 | * ChargedAttack: He can charge his arrow attack for a delayed fire and higher damage. |
| 710 | * CombatPragmatist: Doesn't have any scruples with shooting an opponent with his handgun when all else fails. |
| 711 | * CoolMask: It looks like a skull; and also [[ExpressiveMask reflects his expressions]]. |
| 712 | * CounterAttack: As both a special (the heavy version acts more like a AttackReflector) and a hyper. |
| 713 | * CutLexLuthorACheck: [[spoiler:In his ending, he expands his training program, puts out a series of exercise tapes, and a line of health food products.]] |
| 714 | * DeathFromAbove: He can aim his shot upward, and then multiple arrows will rain from above. He can also aim his hyper version of the special upward, and it becomes a literal RainOfArrows. In midair, he can also aim his special and hyper versions downward. |
| 715 | * ExpressiveMask: The mouth on his skull mask moves along with his dialogue. This is something that originated in this game, but some later depictions of him have done this as well, including some comics. |

| 720 | * LaughablyEvil: Invoked in-universe. Taskmaster's Arcade ending shows that the fame he's earned by defeating Galactus has gotten to his head, inspiring him to record a comical and over-the-top commercial for his mercenary training classes. His dialogue implies that most viewers burst into laughter after watching the advertisement, though his profits have been so substantial that he doesn't care. |
| 721 | * MalevolentMaskedMan: A supervillain who wears a sinister-looking skull mask. |
| 722 | * MoneyDearBoy: {{Invoked|Trope}}. He's a mercenary by trade, and many of his intros mention that he's being paid for the current fight. |
| 723 | * MoreDakka: One of his hypers, though using arrows instead of bullets. |
| 724 | * TheMusketeer: He has both melee and ranged attack prowess with his weapons. |
| 725 | * OddNameOut: Of all the characters in the game that use an alias, only C. Viper's and Taskmaster's (Anthony Masters) aren't used in the dialogue. |
| 726 | * OnlyInItForTheMoney: His entire motivation. Even referenced in his ending. |
| 727 | --> (''to [[BloodKnight Ryu, Akuma]], or Tron'') I do this for the cash, not for the thrills. |
| 728 | * PowerCopying: This is Taskmaster's gimmick, just like in the comics. In game, he has Spider-Man's Web Swing and Captain America's Charging Star. Sharp-eyed viewers will also realize a majority of his normal inputs are also taken from other characters. |
| 729 | * PunchClockVillain: He does villainous things just because he's paid enough. In battle, he's quite friendly and talkative to the heroes. |
| 730 | * SecretCharacter: Requires 8000 Player Points to unlock. |
| 731 | * SoundtrackDissonance: He has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHZWZ7RzE-U a pretty heroic sounding theme]], despite the fact that he's a [[PunchClockVillain mostly]] villainous mercenary. |
| 732 | * SwordPointing: Does this in his winning pose, aimed [[BreakingTheFourthWall at the camera]]. |
| 733 | * TwinkleSmile: Done during said winning pose. |
| 734 | * WorthyOpponent: The only person he really hates is Deadpool, and that's only because he's [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} so erratic]] that Taskmaster can't copy his style. |

| 743 | |
| 744 | [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor]] is the son of Odin, ruler of Asgard, the home of the gods. Known as the strongest warrior in Asgard, his prideful ways were reformed after spending time living as a human. Currently, he is a member of the Earth's mightiest heroes, the Avengers. |
| 745 | ---- |
| 746 | * AscendedExtra: Thor had a cameo in ''War of the Gems'', is present in many of the endings as one of the frozen warriors in ''VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroes'', and was an AssistCharacter in the first ''[=MvC=]'' before finally becoming a playable character in this game. |
| 747 | * BadassCape: A long red one. |
| 748 | * ChargedAttack: All of his specials and hypers (except for the grappling ones) can be charged. |
| 749 | * ChickMagnet: In Hsien-Ko's arcade mode ending, she and her sister Mei-Ling end up fighting over Thor. Chun-Li's win quote against him also has her admit that Thor, being [[{{Hunk}} tall, blonde and handsome]], is exactly her type, though she isn't a fan of him carrying that hammer everywhere. |
| 750 | * CombatCompliment: He is polite and respectful to many opponents after beating them. |
| 751 | * CoolHelmet: Adorned with MercurysWings. |
| 752 | * {{Flight}}: He's capable of this, for a short time. |
| 753 | * GameplayAndStorySegregation: His bio lists his speed as 7, the maximum. Gameplay wise, he's a MightyGlacier and has the highest health in the game (at 1,250,000). |
| 754 | * GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfwoLXEk9QI his command taunt]], he points at his opponent while swinging Mjolnir in his other hand, delivering a long speech that fills the hyper meter for as long as it is performed. |
| 755 | --> Heed my words, evildoers! If thou dost wish to challenge the Odinson, thou will face the divine power of mighty Mjölnir! ''Never'' shall the god of thunder relent! |
| 756 | --> Behold, I am Thor, son of Odin, and defender of Asgard! If thou are foolish enough to challenge Thor, you will find Mjölnir powerful enough to ''BREAK YOUR SKULL!'' |
| 757 | * GroundPound: Done with his hammer in his Mighty Smash special and Mighty Thunder hyper. |
| 758 | * HeroicBuild: Incredibly muscular, as befitting both a superhero and a god. |
| 759 | * LargeHam: So much that Haggar thinks he would make for a great pro wrestler. |
| 760 | * LetsYouAndHimFight: He believes that he's tricked by Loki when he encounters Hulk, Iron Man, or [[MirrorMatch himself]]. |
| 761 | * MadeOfIron: With 1250k HP, he has the most health in the game. |
| 762 | * MightyGlacier: Among the slowest characters in the game, but his attacks can hit rather hard. |
| 763 | * PhysicalGod: The Norse God of Thunder, and one of the strongest superheroes in the Marvel Universe. |
| 764 | * RousingSpeech: He has a special move called [[LargeHam "Mighty Speech"]], which fills the hyper meter for as long as Thor keeps up his discourse. |
| 765 | * ShockAndAwe: As the Nordic god of lightning, it's unsurprising that most of Thor's special moves have him manipulating lightning in some fashion to strike his opponent with. |
| 766 | * SlideAttack: His crouching H attack is one. |
| 767 | * SpinningPiledriver: The end of his Mighty Hurricane Hyper has him grab the opponent by the face and spin them in the air before slamming them to the ground. |
| 768 | * StabTheSky: In his Mighty Tornado hyper, he lifts Mjölnir above his head to summon a twister around him. |
| 769 | * ThemeNaming: All of his attacks have the word "Mighty" in them. |
| 770 | * WorthyOpponent: His intro quote against Captain America has him declare how much he respects his fellow avenger. He also comments that Morrigan would make a fine replacement for Hela, the Goddess of Death. |
| 771 | * YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe: Forsooth! 'Tis but a trademark of Mighty Thor to speaketh in yon manner. |

| 781 | Beneath [[ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} James "Logan" Howlett's]] gruff and crude exterior lies a noble spirit who genuinely treasures his comrades. However, in the face of his enemies, he is merciless, often employing extreme measures in his methods. |
| 782 | ---- |
| 783 | * AudibleSharpness: You can hear sounds of metal scraping whenever he attacks with his claws. |
| 784 | * BadassBoast: His quotes when against Ghost Rider: |
| 785 | --> (''start of line-up'') You really think your Hellfire's gonna scare the guy who beat the devil? |
| 786 | --> (''after winning'') I've been to Hell and back, bub. You don't stand a chance! |
| 787 | * BattleAura: During his Berserker Charge hyper. |
| 788 | * TheBerserker: If it wasn't apparent by the fact that 90% of his move list starts with the word "BERSERKER", looking at his idle pose for one second is all it takes for anyone unfamiliar with Logan to realize he is a [[PintSizePowerHouse small man]] brimming with enough rage to make even [[UnstoppableRage Hulk]] seem irritated at best. |
| 789 | * BladeSpam: His Berserker Barrage and its hyper variant, as well as Weapon X. ''Ultimate'' gave him a new move named Berserker Rage. |
| 790 | %%* BloodKnight |
| 791 | * ButtonMashing: His throw, Berserker Barrage, and Tornado Claw can score more hits if the attack button is mashed. |
| 792 | * DivingKick: One of his command inputs in the air has him rush downwards with a kick. It's great at keeping combos going, since it bounces them upwards slightly and opens them up for more aerial attacks. |
| 793 | * FirstNameBasis: Refers to X-23 by her first name, Laura, when switching out with her. Does the same for his fellow X-Men Phoenix (Jean) and Storm (Ororo), as well as Magneto (Erik). |
| 794 | * FlashStep: His Berserker Claw starts with this. |
| 795 | * GlassCannon: Wolverine hits pretty hard and can combo the opponent for days, but he has below-average health to compensate for this. |
| 796 | * HealingFactor: His famous mutant ability, which is present in the game, as he can recover small bits of health at a time if he isn't attacked long enough. |
| 797 | * PintSizedPowerHouse: Wolverine only stands at 5'3, meaning he only reaches the chest level of most of the cast. Make no mistake though, he will tear you apart with ease. |
| 798 | * TheRival: Wolverine becomes Vergil's rival in ''Ultimate'', as the two are shown going against each other in the game's opening cutscene. The winner is revealed to be [[spoiler:Vergil, who uses the Muramasa Blade to cancel Wolverine's healing factor]]. |
| 799 | * {{Shoryuken}}: His Tornado Claw. |
| 800 | * ShutUpHannibal: When Magneto boasts about his magnetism powers, his response is basically this: |
| 801 | -->Sorry, Erik, you just ain't gonna win this. |
| 802 | * SuperMode: Berserker Charge. |
| 803 | * ToTheTuneOf: Wolverine's theme and the theme song of ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF_Bd4J-xgw Compare.]] |
| 804 | * UnskilledButStrong: Ryu notes that he fights like a wild animal. It doesn't make him any less dangerous an opponent. |
| 805 | * WolverineClaws: As to be expected from the TropeNamer, after all. |
| 806 | * WolverinePublicity: He ''is'' the TropeNamer and it applies here as much as anywhere as Wolverine is the only Marvel representative to appear in ''every'' Capcom-produced Marvel fighting game (with the exception of ''Infinite'', [[OvershadowedByControversy a fact that caused much outcry on its own]]) dating all the way back to ''VideoGame/XMenChildrenOfTheAtom''. He is essentially to the series what Ryu is to the Capcom cast (although he doesn't have a second version of himself in this game with a different moveset like he did in ''2''). One of his new win quotes in ''Ultimate'' even [[LampshadeHanging acknowledges it]]: |

| 820 | ---- |
| 821 | * AudibleSharpness: Much like Wolverine, her blades make a sharp metallic sound whenever she attacks. |
| 822 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: In one of her pre-battle quotes, she claims to have already identified seventeen ways to beat her opponent. |
| 823 | * BladeSpam: In her Weapon X Prime hyper, X-23 rushes her opponent and performs a barrage of melee attacks for a soft knockdown. |
| 824 | %%* BloodKnight |
| 825 | * ChargedAttack: Her Neck Slice, Ankle Slice, and Decapitating Slice can be charged to increase distance and hit [=OTG=]. |

| 827 | * FirstNameBasis: When she calls Wolvie in, she yells "Logan!". |
| 828 | * FragileSpeedster: Has only 825,000 health but good mobility and very fast combos. |
| 829 | * HellBentForLeather: Dressed in a leather tube top and tight pants. |
| 830 | * {{Invisibility}}: Her Level 3 hyper turns her invisible, which is great for mindgames. However, its main purpose is to grant her access to a special grab, which she can perform by pressing the Special button when in close range. It's implied by the animations that she's meant to have dug beneath the stage to strike quickly from below, especially since invisibility is not an ability she normally has, but the actual mechanics don't reflect that. |
| 831 | * OppositeSexClone: Of Wolverine. He eventually adopted her as his daughter. |
| 832 | * RollingAttack: Her Rage Trigger hyper involves her doing a rolling slash twice before doing a somersault kick. |
| 833 | * ShadowArchetype: Of Wolverine. She admits herself that she is the second best there is at what she does, and wants to be the #1. |
| 834 | * SlideAttack: Her Ankle Slicer special has her sliding into the ground to strike at her opponent's feet with her hand claws. |
| 835 | * WhatWouldXDo: When she activates X-Factor, she asks: "What would Wolvie do?" |
| 836 | * WolverineClaws: As a clone of the Trope Namer, she naturally has the same mutation. However, due to a defect in the [=DNA=] sample, she only has two claws in her arms, and an additional pair that protude from her feet. |
| 837 | * YouRemindMeOfX: Amaterasu reminds her of Wolfsbane, a fellow X-Men who can transform into a wolf. |

| 850 | The sole survivor of the universe before the Big Bang, Galan was recreated into a "galactic ravager" by the sentience of the previous universe. In order for the giant-sized goliath to survive, ComicBook/{{Galactus}} feeds off the energy of living planets, which are located by his herald the Silver Surfer. |
| 851 | ---- |
| 852 | * AdaptationalVillainy: In normal Marvel canon, Galactus is by and large a neutral character. Yes he eats planets, but he only does it out of necessity and only attacks if he's provoked. In this game, however, Galactus is actively seeking out the destruction of the Earths because the alliance of the Marvel and Capcom villains pissed him off, and his general demeanor in the game is very aggressive as he bears a permanent mean mug and sneers at all of the characters. |
| 853 | * BeamSpam: Galactus' more impressive attacks involve firing massive lasers from his eyes and fingertips. One of his hypers covers the entire screen, forcing the player to spam Advancing Guards to minimize the damage taken. |
| 854 | * BigBad: Galactus intends to destroy the Marvel and Capcom universes, forcing heroes and villains from both worlds to join forces in an effort to repel him. His presence is felt even outside of Arcade Mode, as Heroes and Heralds revolves around fighting his minions and freeing the game's stages from his influence. |
| 855 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: He makes his entrance by ripping apart the victory screen of the previous battle. And if you try again with another team after a game over, it's the "Hero Select" screen that he rips down. |
| 856 | * CoolHelmet: Galactus' most recognizable physical trait is his massive, highly stylized purple helmet. M.O.D.O.K. admits in a victory quote that he's had his eye on Galactus' helmet the entire time. [[BrickJoke His ending features him putting it on and asking his AIM subordinates how he looks]]. |
| 857 | * TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: The titular fate of two worlds refers to Galactus consuming both the Marvel and Capcom universes. In his ending, he is seen shattering the two Earths with his hands. |
| 858 | * EvilSoundsDeep: Galactus has a gruff voice that makes him more intimidating. |
| 859 | * EvilIsBigger: Galactus is the main antagonist of the game and towers above the playable cast. During the final battle, he is only seen from the torso and up. |
| 860 | * EyeBeam: His hyper move has him fire lasers from his eyes and fingers, covering the entire screen. It depletes 70% of the character's health should it land all hits. |
| 861 | * FinalBoss: He is the final opponent the player must defeat in Arcade Mode. |
| 862 | * FingerGun: A shot from one of his fingers equals 30 hits. Exaggerated when he uses all of his left fingers to [[BeamSpam fire multiple lasers]]. |
| 863 | * FingerPokeOfDoom: His heavy attack is a finger flick that causes a Snapback. |
| 864 | * ImportedAlienPhlebotinum: Defeating him usually leads to an ending where the victor takes his Worldship Taa II, which is bigger than the ''solar system'', and using it to advance their goals in some way. Magneto turns it into a sanctuary for mutants, while the Master Mold would use it to expand its reach across the multiverse. |
| 865 | * LeaningOnTheFourthWall: One of his quotes before he attacks is "This game is over". |
| 866 | * NonstandardGameOver: If you lose to him, instead of "K.O." you get "[[ItsAWonderfulFailure EARTH K.O.]]", letting you know that your loss has doomed the entire planet. Should you not continue, you get a special ending sequence that doubles as Galactus's personal ending. You're also rewarded with some unlockable goodies related to him, such as his musical themes. In ''Ultimate'', you can get his ending and unlockables via Galactus Mode. |
| 867 | * OldSaveBonus: You unlock Galactus Mode on ''Ultimate'' straight away if you have data from vanilla ''[=MvC3=]'' on your hard drive. Otherwise, you have to obtain 30000 player points. |
| 868 | * OneHitKill: One of his attacks has him raise his hands slowly, charging a ton of energy before slamming it down on you. You can stop it by inflicting enough damage before he finishes charging, but if you don't, you can kiss your current character bye-bye. |
| 869 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: Galactus' main goal is to destroy the two Earths. He accomplishes this feat in his ending, where the planets crumble after he drains their energy into himself. |
| 870 | * PlanetEater: The dude has eaten the Skrulls' planet, and now he threatens to eat both the Capcom and Marvel worlds. |
| 871 | --> (''to Super-Skrull'') I remember your homeworld. It was ''delicious''. |
| 872 | * PowerEchoes: Galactus' otherworldly nature is emphasized by the fact his voice has an audible reverb whenever he speaks. |
| 873 | * PromotedToPlayable: Although he simply served the role of final boss in the original game, he is made playable in ''Ultimate'' via an unlockable Galactus Mode. |
| 874 | * ReminiscingAboutYourVictims: If Super-Skrull is leading the team in the battle against Galactus, he says this (specifically, about his planet). |
| 875 | * SoundtrackDissonance: If he wins the final fight, the same triumphant theme plays, even as the world is being destroyed. |
| 876 | * UnskilledButStrong: He has no real combat abilities (he telegraphs every attack by at least half a second, and his attacks are: Smash you, shoot cosmic rays, or fire more cosmic rays). But he makes up for this by every attack doing massive amounts of damage, even blocked, and being hard to or even impossible to dodge. This gets [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in his character bio, in which all of his stats are at Max Level, except for fighting ability. |
| 877 | * VillainProtagonist: Galactus Mode lets the player control Galactus in his mission to destroy the two Earths. |
