My friends and I started playing MVC2 again. I forgot how awesome this game is!
I love the super fast action, mega combo specials and the huge character selection.
Im just trying out characters for now, I do have some favorites but cant decide which are best because I quite often still get owned.

My picks:
- Sakura
- Strider
- Jill
- Captain America
- Hayoto
- Sonson

Im playing it on the Dreamcast btw, I dont know if the xbox/ps2 version has more/other characters.

With what team do you play?

 

[Kabuki Waq]

ryu ken Akuma

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

ryu ken Akuma

It was kind of neat in part 1 when Ryu was pratically all three!! A crap load of super combos variations of his specials and moves at your disposal!!

 

[Link316]

Jill, Hulk & Juggernaut

 

[RyuHayate]

Ryu, Hayato, and Strider

 

[beanoboy7]

Cable
Iron Man
Mega Man

 

[Pack of Wild Rats]

It's impossible to find this game for a decent price now.

 

[sprsk]

juggernaut blackheart and megaman

 

[AniHawk]

Ryu, Cable, Cyclops

Triple beam combo ftw

 

[Mr Jared]

Tron Bonne, Projectile Assist
Magneto, Projectile Assist
Dr. Doom, Projectile Assist

or

Magneto, Projectile Assist
Sentinel, Depends
Iron Man, Repulsar Assist

EAST COAAAAAST DOOOOM~

MvC2 is fun but a year after it's arcade release I had to stop. It got too freaking ridiculous and then everyone realized that only about 13 characters are actually worth using.

 

[MarkMan]

Magneto, Sentinel, Storm

 

[TheMissingLink]

Guile, Cable, Sentinel

and when just goofing off my favorite team to play is:

Sakura, Akuma, Megaman

 

[8bit]

Cable, War Machine & Wolverine.

 

[LuCkymoON]

Guile, Sentinel, Psylock

 

[shibbs]

Anyone got some cool combo movies? Cant find much on video google, except for this..

[robot]

God this game is fun as hell, wished I picked up either the PS2 or Xbox version when they came out.

 

[Attack You]

1.) Jill, Felicia, Juggernaut
2.) Strider, Hulk, Gambit
3.) Dan, Dan, Dan (preferably vs. Dan, Dan, Dan)

[Sullen]

If I want to be a cheap jerk (but a winner!) I pick:

1.) Cable
2.) Magneto
3.) Storm

If I'm just playing for fun I pick:

1.) Blackheart
2.) Spiral
3.) Morrigan

But really when I'm just playing for fun I will pick and choose from everyone. The game has so many cool characters that there are dozens of different teams I enjoy.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Jin, Spiral, Sentinal.


Baiting them with Jin's pressure only to let loose the Blodia Punch when they called in Assist to counter me, (thus activating the "blockbuster glitch").

 

[Shouta]

Ruby Heart, Doom, Black Heart
Hayato, Sentinel, Captain Commando
Venom, Sentinel, Jin,
Silver Samurai, Jin, Psylocke

 

[acidviper]

If there ever was a pickup and play game that needed internet play - not the Japanese phone play - this is it.

Cyclops, Cable, Sentinnel.

 

[Andrew2]

Spider MAN
Mega Man
Jill

 

[GotchaForce]

Spidey
Venom

Spider-Man's aerial combos are great.

 

[Big Icarus]

Sakura, Strider, Mega Man.

 

[evil ways]

The "Favorite characters" team:

The "Serious competition" team:

Magneto

[Suburban Cowboy]

"MvC2" is a code word for smoking pot amongst certain circles of friends.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

Usually I choose:

Dr. Doom
Magneto
Iron Man

But I sometimes I like to sub in:

Captain America
Spiderman
Wolverine
Venom

 

[djtiesto]

Cable / Iron Man / either Hayato, Charlie, or BBHood

 

[aechris]

Dan
Captain Commando (L-trigger select)
Jin Saotome (L-trigger select)

Can't beat a team of pink-wearing losers!

I loved this team because I spent the time to get good with all three; such an awesome way to humiliate people, haha.

 

[Deadly Monk]

Cable
Magneto
Psylocke

or

Cable
Iron Man
Psylocke

Best combos in the game. End of story.

(Unlimited combo is so easy with these pairs)

 

[Grimlock]

Felicia, Chun-Li, and Morrigan. I call 'em the "Dear God! I have to get laid!" team.

 

[Ganondorf>Link]

Jin
Ken
Hayato

 

[MarkRyan]

If I'm playing for fun, Magneto (A) / Iron Man (B) / Sentinel (A).

If I'm playing for real, Magneto (A) / Strider (who cares) / Doom (B).

 

[Fatghost]

I'm partial to Hulk, Strider and Jill Valentine, or Hulk, Strider and Venom.

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

spiderman, cammy/chun li, rogue

 

[shibbs]

I think I'll try out Magneto, I never really play with him. Same goes for Psylock and Guile.

 

[elektrotal]

in marvel vs capcom, i liked metal zangief and shadow charlie.

 

[BudokaiMR2]

Spiderman, Strider, Jin

I would use Akuma quite often too.

 

[evil ways]

I think I'll try out Magneto, I never really play with him. Same goes for Psylock and Guile.

Magneto and Psylocke are great due to their speed and ability to air combo into a super move. As for Guile, I liked him in the beginning cause he's strong, plus he's got that great ability to easily cancel his quick, medium punch pokes right into his ground supers.

 

[renvi]

MAGNETO
JILL
RYU

 

[Mr. Rellik]

Capcom's Vs. series are like the old Broderick movie, War Games. The only way to win is not to play

3s for life.

 

[Cafeman]

"My friends and I started playing MVC2 again. I forgot how awesome this game is!"
