Because maybe someone on the dev team likes Gill? There doesn't need to be a logical reason for choosing Gill specifically -- I just wouldn't be surprised to see a Street Fighter villain, and we know that Gill very nearly made the cut for the previous MvC. He's also not playable in SFV (yet), and his inclusion would help differentiate the two rosters.

Personally I don't want SF since they already got a fighting game full of them.
But i'm camp Juri if we had to see another SF character. Give you a female and a anti-hero/villain depending on which version they choose.
But he almost made it into MVC3 when Nitsuma and co were on the game. Apparently none of them are even touching this one. So I wonder if such cuts are even being considered still.
I'd think said group on the game now is more starting with their own slate if anything. Since we're getting stuff like Monster Hunter who by MVC3 info was a no chance in hell character back then.
Next Year DLC should be Gill, Donovan, and Meio to piss off everyone here.
I hope so I can't believe he hasn't made it yet.

That's weird that you didn't think about C. Viper whom made to MVC3 roster which is like two years after SFIV's debut.
But I did. I'm actually with Munch in this overall, if I was in charge there would be no more SF chars. Hell there would be no SF5 chars at all, they have their own game damn it >_<
Also that Juri picture is barely SFW
C. Viper is more likely to come back since she has a boatload of animations that can be recycled, and I don't think we'd get two SFIV reps.

Then do you realize that it was just nonsense right? The developers would do whatever they wants with the characters. It don't matters how old the characters are, at long they prove something unique and interesting to the battle.
I'm okay with Gill being in the game. He's pretty much Phoenix function at the point!
This is exactly why she won't make it in lol. Maybe marvel 3 era but not in the age of #ESPORTS.

Her outfit isn't even bad. Morrigan shows off more and she's in the game.
Hell she's in Esports right now.

As someone who loves Viper, I don't ever see her returning.

I'm not saying anything about the developers or their reasons. I said I think it's weird ppl (us, the players, the viewers) since they can play/watch them in another modern game. It's just my opinion dude, this isn't even a discussion, its opinion lol. I think it's weird, you don't.
I also think it's weird people like pineapple on pizza.
Oh and for the record, I don't care who makes it in or doesn't. Do I have preferences? Sure. But I'm not fussed either way, especially before I play the characters. I learned that one from MH, where there was a bunch if heroes I initially went "ewww that one?" Because I didn't care for them in the comics and then their gameplay was great and they became faves.

A buxom succubus and a self-harming Grim Reaper are in the game.

me too.
Honestly, I understand why people don't want any street fighters because they want the slots to be available for their favorite characters.

IMO Juri's SFV Outfit is her best look. Beside's she'd totally get either or as a DLC costume.
Both toned down.
You only say that because you play on PC with dem Juri mods, I'm on to you :3
I don't even remember Gill in SF3 tbh. I know he ressurects and is half red and half blue... that's it
Gonna check some Gill videos now actually.
Edit: oh yeah he had the whole fire and ice theme. Dat angel wing super tho, there's your level 3 right there

It would be interesting if plans changed from the little we know of the Zip Leak. We are missing a Capcom character technically and it's not out of the realm of possibility for Venom or Winter Soldier to push back. With a Marvel female rep getting the fast track into Season 1 to help with the whole lack of female characters and the maybe it's there maybe it's not parity rule.
They're demoing Sigma and black panther there so I imagine that will be the focus. Japan also doesn't give a fuck about marvel so I don't see any major news coming out.
I hate how she's so much more... buxom in SFV for no reason.

The Story mode video I was watching got taken down. 
There's quite a lot of 1v1 and 2v1's in the story mode. I wonder if a 1v1 or Skullgirls style team selection mode might be coming

I know, that's why I wonder. I mean they're demoing those characters at TGS in the first place, so why wouldn't they show more.
I just don't see how Venom is new when Thanos isn't and I'm pretty sure they've labeled Thanos as returning. If it's agent Venom or some shit that's such wack ass cop out.

Well from what we know. Potentially she wasn't gonna have that black shirt under the suit at first. So that probably played a factor in her new design. Glad capcom decided against that.
Thanks for the data! All makes sense to me. Happy it doesn't look like anyone is a stupidly low health glass canon, nor does anyone have a dumb amount of health.

Did you get to see the hunter?
Ryce posted a couple pages back that it seems like they do consider Thanos new.
Of course. These characters are just functions

Marvel should be caring when they do stuff like Women of Power and all the recent things they try to teach in a lot of their latest comics.

I honestly don't care about any DLC until they add Magneto to this.
Maybe Asura though.

It was terrible quality, and I was worried it might get taken down/I'd break some sort of rule by posting it if I did. Sorry.
If we're speculating again, here's my predictions
Valkanda Pack
Monster Hunter, Black Panther, Valkanda Gates stage
Xgard pack
Sigma, Loki (maybe Female Loki?)/Hela/other Thor character,Abel City II Stage
New Metro City Pack
Venom/Winter Soldier (both fit) or maybe a Defender, Gill? Symbiote Invasion stage
or
Lady,
Yes, I did get to see the Hunter. She was pretty cool. Hope she appears again in later parts but I doubt it.
hmm...I don't know if I can get this to work but I'll see what I can do about showing the footage

Death's "Stage" from the cinematic that I never got to see if it was an actual Story mode stage because I got cut off

Loki and Black Widow are probably the two biggest oddities when it comes to not being in the base roster marvel side.

100% agree. Juri's aesthetic was being very sleek and petite except her calves, which were emphasized to both highlight her kicks and balance her largely modeled feet.
She still has a sleek outfit now, but her implants ruin the very slender silhouette she used to have.

tbh I would consider Starlord the biggest oddity, then maybe Daredevil..
