(there's so many possible characters!) Magik Scarlet Witch Maximo Nightcrawler Mr. Sinister Cammy Palico Darkhawk Agent Venom Adam Warlock Namor Vanessa Z. Schneider Harman Smith Moon Knight Lady Elsa Bloodstone Black Cat
Small problem, Matt. Sparda isn't a villain. We've also never fought any weird version of him in any game unless you count the Arkham fight, which you shouldn't. I'm not saying you should swap him with Vergil. I'd recommend Credo Angelo from DMC4, as his boss fight is similar to Vergil's from DMC1.
Not bad choices, some other characters I would have gone with, not including anyone suggested in Max’s video: Star Force Mega Man Mega Man ZX (essentially replaces Zero) June from Star Gladiator Junpei Todoroki from Tech Romancer Lou or Silva from Three Wonders Shang Chi The Maker (aka Ultimate universe Reed Richards that turned evil and has multiverse powers) Nico Minoru The Scorpion from Saturday Night Slam Masters Luke Masamune Date from Sengoku Basara Chuck Greene Hit-Monkey Lady Bullseye Quake Brother Voodoo
What if we game every character an "echo" character similar to Smash bros to expand the roster without too many changes? That way we can practically double the roster, and also add back some old favourites that were practically clones anyway. That way we can have Ryu to go with Ken, Venom to go with Spiderman, and etc.
True but we'll get over it (sorta) especially if you brought back Cyclops in the form of assists but this is not what this roster is for and I'm thinking too much about MvC4.
Hell its not like theres not cool alt version cyclopi that are both more modern and pulls too with cooler movesets. Put "Cyclops Was Right" Cyclops in. Fuck, put PHEONIX FORCE CYCLOPS in this thing.
The trailer begins with footage from a totally real X-Men COTA with Sentry as a super secret character, then transitions to MSH, X-Men vs SF, MSH vs SF, MvC1, MvC2, MvC3, Infinite, and then shows his current model in the new game. Lovely.

No Ryu is just a blasphemy. I don't care about playing Ryu in a versus game, but him not being here is just chaos. You don't gotta do the boy dirty like that. +10k for Regina though. Also, Onimusha star Jean Reno
To be fair, America did Rye-U dirty in 95 and 96 with the Street Fighter cartoon given how Ken got more care compared to him. Though if I could fix this, give Ken an install where he fights like Ryu (also a Violent Ken install).
@@TevorTheThird True but (and sorry to go Rufus for a moment BTW) that argument doesn't work so well in Japan when Phoenix Wright is Ryuichi Naruhodou and his name doesn't really clash with Ryu compared to Ryu who IMO should just be renamed Ryuu if that was an issue.

10:30 They didn't just buy the rights, Neil Gaiman (who created the character) sued Todd McFarlane for the rights and gave, and got Marvel to fund the lawsuit by writing 1602 for them in exchange. Because Todd refused to pay him royalties. 😅
Sadly, the whole "Neil Gaiman made her!" bit of trivia has gotten a whole lot less fun lately. I'd probably swap her with, like, Valkyrie at this point. Maybe Lady Sif or Jane Foster Thor.
I would never play as Ryu in a Street Fighter in, conservatively, one million years. Least interesting character on the roster.

I’d want Nightcrawler to be there somewhere. One of the key characters of X-Men’s redesign in 1975, he’s one of the best characters not to get featured enough in the animated series (gratefully rectified in 97, complete with a long-overdue opening titles inclusion). Super agile, teleportation as not only a moveset but a feature of normals (particularly throws). Also could employ his swordsmanship and tail for agility and mobility. Most importantly, his name is essentially a synonym for “Darkstalker” so any opportunity to get more “Darkstalkers” into the game is a move I want to see. Btw, great job including Talbain who apparently was one slot away from being included in the UMvC3 roster before time ran out; Kung-Fu Werewolves should always have high priority.
My only problem with the Marvel roster is that some of the characters, Elektra Daredevil, God Emperor Dr. Doom, Beta Ray Bill, I feel should be just skins with the exception of Elektra with her Daredevil outfit being an alternate costume.
They could literally pull an Injustice and have alternate skin characters have their own VA with dialogue so you could have both Murdock and Elektra Daredevil
@user-tr1ui4fx1g a lot of people forget that popular fan favorites and legacy characters should make it and not fill half the roster with MCU and obscure characters. Daredevil and Punisher have waited long enough. Nightcrawler, being a fan favorite X-Men, not in a game is a crime!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt like Max's side for the Marvel roster was the most white bread stuff imaginable. I don't hate the X-man, but LORD, does Max do tricks on it whenever they're mentioned in a mvc game. Edit: Not eve 10 minutes in, and you already sold me on the roster when you added Robbie Reyes. Dude doesn't get enough appreciation as Ghost Rider
I would be very happy with this lineup. A big danger the next MvC faces is trying to bring back too many characters out of obligation. This lineup still has me going, “wait, who?”, where discovery is still part of the fun.
I feel like Kamala Ms. Marvel would have to be in it with how she's no doubt the most recent 'iconic' character they got. Plus, her shapeshifting could make for a really fun and distinct moveset compared to all those flying dudes. And on the Capcom side, Asura would just be real cool to see.
@alexandrecoene9024 God PLEASE let her have an embiggening focused moveset instead of the MCU forcefield nonsense Marvel keep trying to make happen in the comics...
@@ItsTheFizzI think her moveset should be focused more on her original powers but she could still have moves using her new ones. Just for skills they can do that her stretching can’t though like projectiles and a shield for her block.
@@Rough_EstimatesReed would play very differently from Kamala. Reed tends to stretch his entire body more while Kamala only really stretches her limbs with her shapeshifting focusing more on embiggening. And if they wanted they could throw in Dhalsim and have three very different stretchy characters.
My friends and I were doing our own list and someone suggested Kingpin but with Sinister Six moves/assists. Electro fires a beam of electricity at the opponent, Vulture flies across the top of the screen slashing any airborne characters, Rhino does a shoulder charge on the ground slamming the opponent into the wall/air, Scorpion sprays his acid and poisons the opponent/the ground in a spot, Green Goblin flies across the screen with a pumpkin bombing run and Doc Oc grabs the opponent and either slams them onto the ground and holds them in place.
Have to say, this roster is pretty sweet in my book. Aside from some staples, Marvel has some characters I should know about while having some cool moves for MvC (also Blade, Punisher and Kingpin) while Capcom has some cool and unexpected choices like Tiffany, Cyber Blue and Ema Skye that would definitely work in this game. I don't see any bad choices in my book as I'm glad certain other Marvel and Capcom characters are getting spotlight while keeping certain staples. As for DLC, favorites have to be Apocalypse, Squirrel Girl, Dr. Wily and Edgeworth.
I wouldn't be surprised if in a hypothetical Marvel vs Capcom 4 includes Jeff the Land Shark as a joke fighter as well as Moon Girl with Devil Dinosaur
Psylocke would be tough. Post Krakoa, Betsy and Kwannon are back in their original bodies, so if you go with the classic design it’s not Betsy and if you go Betsy, it’s Captain Britain.
To be fair, few people playing MvC2 ever knew Psylocke as 'Betsy', so you could probably get away with putting Kwannon and just ignoring the elephant in the room.
I think the design was the main reason Psylocke stayed popular anyway, the vast majority of people would just recognize Kwannon's design anyway and I doubt it would super matter. Kwannon even took the name Psylocke, it's fine
Ok to clarify about Angela what happened was that she was made by Neil Gaimen when he worked on the Spawn comics, but there was a legal dispite between Neil and Todd McFarlane over who owned the characters and thusly was owed the profits made from toys, and Neil teamed up with Marvel to take down Todd, and now she's a Marvel character
Some marvel characters that haven't been featured in game and weren't bought up in the video but would work great in an MvC game: Graviton, Doctor Octopus, Shocker, Electro, Prowler, Yondu, Whiplash, Emma Frost, Sunspot, Dani Moonstar, Lady Deathstrike, Madame Hydra.... Those are the ones i thought of right off the top of my head.
I have been working on my dream roster, I'd want the game to be MvC1 style 2v2 with assist strikers, and I wanted to have a decent mix of old and new, and also not go super obvious. I also went very conservative with base roster size, I realized I really couldn't envision a full moveset for a lot of characters so I went with the striker route (MK1 is doing well with that) so that's why it's small. --- PLAYABLE --- MARVEL: Beta Ray Bill, War Machine, Jubilee, Vision, Groot & Rocket, Psylocke, Iceman, Kang, Juggernaut, Baron Zemo, Enchantress, Blackheart CAPCOM: Regina, Lt. Kurosawa, Mech Zangief, Ruby Heart, Cammy (Cannon Spike), Ken, Mega Man, Astaroth, M. Bison, Dr. Wily, Valgas, Jedah --- ASSISTS --- MARVEL: Spider-Gwen, Bishop, Sabertooth, Sue Storm, Xemnu, Impossible Man, Gladiator, Nimrod, Awesome Andy, Jack of Hearts, Bi-Beast, Colossus, Spiral, U.S. Agent, Deadpool (as Dan) CAPCOM: Fiorayne, Cyber Akuma, Batsu, Alien Green, Hayato, Rose, Saki, Hauzer, Palicoes, Demitri, Urien, Mai Ling, Devilotte, Krauser, Pyron I'd have Kang and Bison as arcade bosses, with Super Adaptoid and Twelve (X.C.O.P.Y) respectively as mirrors of your first pick, and either Mangog or White Fatalis as your giant final boss depending on what side you pick first. The story leads were The Beyonder and Ingrid, they wouldn't be playable but would gather the characters Secret Wars-Style and would reward the player for defeating the anomaly or whatever arcade story magic that was causing crossover chaos.
this is the best mvc4 roster video I've seen i would probably still cutdown on SF reps and include asura from asura's wrath and substitute the onimusha protag's appearance to that one from the 4th game
You leaned a bit hard into the chaos for my taste but I appreciate seeing someone else seeing the value of separating the roster from previous games in order to give it value outside of competition. MVC2 roster is vastly different from UMVC3 and plays different too. I hope MVC4 is the same! People forget these games should be platforms to introduce people to new stuff as well.
This list was refreshing/interesting. Too many list feel like a commercial for upcoming products along with "staple" characters/people's mains than a celebration of both brands. Vile is an awesome pick for a megaman villain. Though I wonder which version they will pick. Magma Dragoon would be my other pick for mega man x villain. If we get firebrand again i hope he is based off his demon's crest incarnation where he has elemental gargoyle powers.
Ill play Man-thing. I dont know shit about him, but i would easily play man-thing! He looks dope. Then, I'd proceed to learn everything about him, Ala Shuma-Gorath. Then, when I feel like i discovered him myself, I will proceed to talk myself out of convos at parties... because Im really into hiw man-thing plays now.
Son of a gun. He chose Zack and Wiki. I'd go them too as a joke character. Great minds and all that Other characters I'd consider include - - Palico - Vanessa (PN03) - Someone from Killer 7 - Ibuki - Dr Wily Marvel? - Miles Morales -
After how much the Part 4 Nirvana stuff in Asura's Wrath changed your opinion on the game, really surprised you didn't include him here, even as DLC or an honorable mention,
I would like to suggest another sword wielding character for Capcom: Maximo from Maximo: Ghosts to Glory and VS Army of Zin. Either to replace Seig from Chaos Legion or as a DLC character. He's technically from Ghosts N' Goblins and he's not Arthur
I do like the idea of Edgeworth being in and being more offensive than Phoenix Wright was It would be something like putting Zero in over Megaman I think it would be interesting
This is definitely a roster that many of people wouldn't have thought of, but it still feels pretty solid and plausible. I wouldnt really be opposed to a game with this roster
Ema Skye is very unexpected but not unwelcome. I've always wanted Simon Blackquill or Franziska von Karma for another Ace Attorney rep personally though maybe the former's move set potential has too much overlap with Strider?
Honestly there`s so many different and great versions of these chartacters that I`d love to see Capcom implement a variation mechanic like MKX, where each style would correspond to a different character - or maybe even echo fighters, Smash style. So you know, you could get Peter Parker and Miles, Johnny Blaze and Robbie Reyes, Mega Man and X, so on and so forth.
Bucky is DLC in MVCI so there is a gun using Marvel character in the games. I respect the Angela pick btw, she's an interesting piece of comic trivia. Cosigned on Regina too, she deserves a shot after all these years.
Black cat and SpiderGwen, especially after three last spider verse movie. She's an actual great character that marvel has come up with in the last 10-20 years. Characters I definitely don't want: Captain Marvel or Ms. Marvel (kamala khan). OG Ms. Marvel with the black outfit and sash would be fine, just not the Captain variety or the Kamala Khan version.
I like this roster way more than Max’s, though Ema on the base roster while Edgeworth is relegated to *DLC* is WILD I know this seems like a pipe dream but I feel like we could actually get a big roster like this if Capcom focused on utilizing our current gen technology on providing lots of content instead of using it to add fidelity to each character’s individual eyebrow hairs
Yeah, while Vile could fit fairly well as an MvC moveset, it feels really basic to have the X games (plus Wily) be the only Mega Man characters in the roster, especially after Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite had three X characters and gave them story spotlight. While the MMZ version of Zero has Vs. series history with SNK, I think it's honestly prime time for the RPGs to get their full fighting game dues. Bass.EXE, Colonel.EXE, Star Force Mega Man, Harp Note, if you wanted to go weird, NumberMan.EXE or Duo. That said, for Zero/ZX love, there could be Copy X, Harpuia, Omega, Pandora, Aile, or Ashe. Matt seemed SO CLOSE by picking Command Mission X, but if they really wanted to do a fresh roster, they should use a wholly new "Mega Man" for the Vs. series.
Jon Talbain would be an absolute blast to play as in a Marvel VS Capcom setting, using Beast Cannons to navigate the stage, Million Flicker to deflect projectiles and control space, Climb Lasers for Anti Air, Dragon Cannon, Mirage Double and Moment Slice being his Hyper Combos, in other words, basically, I want the VGExiles version of Jon Talbain in a playable form, also get Ed Bosco to voice him.
Probably the best one of these I've seen someone do. There are definitely snubs (where's Asura) and characters I'm personally kind of over (Felicia) but I would be so hype for this roster overall, Matt definitely understands that the main hype of crossover rosters is seeing characters that you haven't already seen crossover a billion times. Sparda might be the coolest pick I've seen anyone make ever, what a cool idea.
for me an often overlooked character that would be super awesome, especially moveset wise, would be Mysterio fake clones of himself, illusions, could summon stuff, fly (you know hed have a nasty tri-dash) great cinematic super potential not to mention hed probably have some sick voice lines hes a little silly sure but he screams marvel vs capcom to me and i can see him fitting in so easily
I feel like now we need a Max vs. Matt crossover video where they argue back and forth and make a roster that isn't too basic and vanilla, and one that isn't so out there.
Here's some honorable mentions I was CLOSE to putting in, or per your comments, are SUPER good suggestions I would have considered if I had just remembered them. (there's so many possible characters!)

Scarlet Witch
Maximo

I'm surprised asura from asura's wraith was not mentioned on video or here, he would be the perfect fit

Btw, great job including Talbain who apparently was one slot away from being included in the UMvC3 roster before time ran out; Kung-Fu Werewolves should always have high priority.
My only problem with the Marvel roster is that some of the characters, Elektra Daredevil, God Emperor Dr. Doom, Beta Ray Bill, I feel should be just skins with the exception of Elektra with her Daredevil outfit being an alternate costume.
They could literally pull an Injustice and have alternate skin characters have their own VA with dialogue so you could have both Murdock and Elektra Daredevil
I'd be so legit upset if Electra daredevil made it into a game before daredevil did.
@Kenpachi546 probably the best feature to come out of injustice ngl
@@Kenpachi546 I don't know how different Elektra is to Murdock when it comes to moves, I'd imagine she would fight much different.
@user-tr1ui4fx1g a lot of people forget that popular fan favorites and legacy characters should make it and not fill half the roster with MCU and obscure characters. Daredevil and Punisher have waited long enough. Nightcrawler, being a fan favorite X-Men, not in a game is a crime!
Jeff the Land Shark or we riot!
Success!
I think Franziska Von Karma is the Ace Attorney character best suited for combat with her zoning whip
I was super close to putting her in.
She was also considered for TvC. So she's got some minor legacy with Capcom's Vs. series.
I think Franziska could be KOF Whip's rival in Capcom vs. SNK 3.
You’ve got amazing tastes in Villains, Onslaught, Pyron, freaking Vile?! I would totally play your roster!
I like your roster more than Max's pick.
Hear me out, Marvel vs Capcom 4: Horsemen of Apocalypse. Apocalypse is the big boss again with four Capcom villains as his horsemen
Also horsemen are M. Bison: Conquest, Wesker: Pestilence, Vergil: Death & Bass.EXE: War
I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt like Max's side for the Marvel roster was the most white bread stuff imaginable. I don't hate the X-man, but LORD, does Max do tricks on it whenever they're mentioned in a mvc game.
Edit: Not eve 10 minutes in, and you already sold me on the roster when you added Robbie Reyes. Dude doesn't get enough appreciation as Ghost Rider
Man-Thing, Carnage, Kingpin, Poison, Vile, and Ema Skye?
You cooked so hard with this list sir.
Vile being here makes this automatically the best fan roster
Man, I’d love to see Moon Knight in one of these games.
CHAOS LEGION MENTIONED?!?!?!
Thank you Matt for making me think of Chaos Legion for my designated three minutes per decade.
I would be very happy with this lineup. A big danger the next MvC faces is trying to bring back too many characters out of obligation.
This lineup still has me going, “wait, who?”, where discovery is still part of the fun.
Matty this roster is absolutely BASED. I love it.
BILL OVER THOR IS BASED
I feel like Kamala Ms. Marvel would have to be in it with how she's no doubt the most recent 'iconic' character they got. Plus, her shapeshifting could make for a really fun and distinct moveset compared to all those flying dudes. And on the Capcom side, Asura would just be real cool to see.
@alexandrecoene9024 God PLEASE let her have an embiggening focused moveset instead of the MCU forcefield nonsense Marvel keep trying to make happen in the comics...
Big yikes, Reed Richards over that idea
We really need Fingoria in the next Marvel vs. Capcom game, she would be so quirky and relatable, you guys😂
@@ItsTheFizzI think her moveset should be focused more on her original powers but she could still have moves using her new ones. Just for skills they can do that her stretching can’t though like projectiles and a shield for her block.
@@Rough_EstimatesReed would play very differently from Kamala. Reed tends to stretch his entire body more while Kamala only really stretches her limbs with her shapeshifting focusing more on embiggening.
And if they wanted they could throw in Dhalsim and have three very different stretchy characters.
My friends and I were doing our own list and someone suggested Kingpin but with Sinister Six moves/assists. Electro fires a beam of electricity at the opponent, Vulture flies across the top of the screen slashing any airborne characters, Rhino does a shoulder charge on the ground slamming the opponent into the wall/air, Scorpion sprays his acid and poisons the opponent/the ground in a spot, Green Goblin flies across the screen with a pumpkin bombing run and Doc Oc grabs the opponent and either slams them onto the ground and holds them in place.
What if, Linn Kurosawa was on both the Capcom and Marvel roster?
I like the idea of Beta ray bill, nice touch!
Have to say, this roster is pretty sweet in my book. Aside from some staples, Marvel has some characters I should know about while having some cool moves for MvC (also Blade, Punisher and Kingpin) while Capcom has some cool and unexpected choices like Tiffany, Cyber Blue and Ema Skye that would definitely work in this game. I don't see any bad choices in my book as I'm glad certain other Marvel and Capcom characters are getting spotlight while keeping certain staples.
As for DLC, favorites have to be Apocalypse, Squirrel Girl, Dr. Wily and Edgeworth.
Unrealistic, but they should do an "everyone's here" approach and just add some new characters.
I've been saying do MvC2 with extra bonus DLC for years.
I wouldn't be surprised if in a hypothetical Marvel vs Capcom 4 includes Jeff the Land Shark as a joke fighter as well as Moon Girl with Devil Dinosaur
Psylocke would be tough. Post Krakoa, Betsy and Kwannon are back in their original bodies, so if you go with the classic design it’s not Betsy and if you go Betsy, it’s Captain Britain.
To be fair, few people playing MvC2 ever knew Psylocke as 'Betsy', so you could probably get away with putting Kwannon and just ignoring the elephant in the room.
Honestly, with how FG works, they can just put Psylocke, original design, and not even call her by her civilian name.
I think the design was the main reason Psylocke stayed popular anyway, the vast majority of people would just recognize Kwannon's design anyway and I doubt it would super matter. Kwannon even took the name Psylocke, it's fine
i'm pretty sure people just want kwannon then, hell i didn't even knew they were two people and Kwanon just has the superior design
Vile?! Ok, this game NEEDS to happen.
Matt choosing Beta Ray Bill over Thor and Elektra Daredevil is why I love him
Ok to clarify about Angela what happened was that she was made by Neil Gaimen when he worked on the Spawn comics, but there was a legal dispite between Neil and Todd McFarlane over who owned the characters and thusly was owed the profits made from toys, and Neil teamed up with Marvel to take down Todd, and now she's a Marvel character
I think, if there is MvC4, the 2 new characters that have to be in it are Daredevil and Ms Marvel, both would fit in soooooo well
It would be insane to make a new MvC and not have Kamala Kahn in there, I agree. You get real wild with her stretchy abilities
Scarlet Witch and Jubilee for me personally
@@squallleonhart9387 Also good
Other dream rosters rely too much on nostalgia or play it too safe with obvious choices.
Matt pull out sleepwalker.
Sentry and Knull all the way. We can dream. I can imagine Sentry becoming something like Phoenix (and the Void after dying with max hyper)
Ryu is feeling the Kyo Erasure Syndrome.
I like seeing this kind of roster more than those "realistic" or "perfect" rosters, because these ones are not only more interesting and diverse, but they feel more personal too. My roster's a mix of both, I took inspiration fromca bunch of different lists I saw on youtube, took some characters I liked, and made this:

That's it, that's a total of 104 characters, I don't think ALL of them would be in, but I organized things in a way so that, even when taking out batches of characters, we still end up with a solid roster. I wanted to cover as many sides of Marvel and Capcom as possible, and I think it came out pretty good
If there was a "Ultimate Version" with new characters, then these could be the ones:
1 - Iron Fist - Defenders
2 - Sandman - Spiderverse +

1 - Black Bolt - Inhumans +
2 - Kang - FF +
3 - Howard o Pato - Guardians +
4 - Angela - Image Comics +
5 - Magik - X-MEN +
(or a new popular character)
1 - Jack - Power Stone +
(or a new popular character)
2 - Solo - Megaman +
3 - Arthur - Ghosts'n'Goblins
4 - Akechi - Onimusha +
5 - Amingo - MvC
Some marvel characters that haven't been featured in game and weren't bought up in the video but would work great in an MvC game: Graviton, Doctor Octopus, Shocker, Electro, Prowler, Yondu, Whiplash, Emma Frost, Sunspot, Dani Moonstar, Lady Deathstrike, Madame Hydra.... Those are the ones i thought of right off the top of my head.
I have been working on my dream roster, I'd want the game to be MvC1 style 2v2 with assist strikers, and I wanted to have a decent mix of old and new, and also not go super obvious. I also went very conservative with base roster size, I realized I really couldn't envision a full moveset for a lot of characters so I went with the striker route (MK1 is doing well with that) so that's why it's small.
--- PLAYABLE ---
MARVEL: Beta Ray Bill, War Machine, Jubilee, Vision, Groot & Rocket, Psylocke, Iceman, Kang, Juggernaut, Baron Zemo, Enchantress, Blackheart
CAPCOM: Regina, Lt. Kurosawa, Mech Zangief, Ruby Heart, Cammy (Cannon Spike), Ken, Mega Man, Astaroth, M. Bison, Dr. Wily, Valgas, Jedah
--- ASSISTS ---
MARVEL: Spider-Gwen, Bishop, Sabertooth, Sue Storm, Xemnu, Impossible Man, Gladiator, Nimrod, Awesome Andy, Jack of Hearts, Bi-Beast, Colossus, Spiral, U.S. Agent, Deadpool (as Dan)
CAPCOM: Fiorayne, Cyber Akuma, Batsu, Alien Green, Hayato, Rose, Saki, Hauzer, Palicoes, Demitri, Urien, Mai Ling, Devilotte, Krauser, Pyron
I'd have Kang and Bison as arcade bosses, with Super Adaptoid and Twelve (X.C.O.P.Y) respectively as mirrors of your first pick, and either Mangog or White Fatalis as your giant final boss depending on what side you pick first.
The story leads were The Beyonder and Ingrid, they wouldn't be playable but would gather the characters Secret Wars-Style and would reward the player for defeating the anomaly or whatever arcade story magic that was causing crossover chaos.
this is the best mvc4 roster video I've seen i would probably still cutdown on SF reps and include asura from asura's wrath and substitute the onimusha protag's appearance to that one from the 4th game
You leaned a bit hard into the chaos for my taste but I appreciate seeing someone else seeing the value of separating the roster from previous games in order to give it value outside of competition.
MVC2 roster is vastly different from UMVC3 and plays different too. I hope MVC4 is the same! People forget these games should be platforms to introduce people to new stuff as well.
This list is so nuts you can’t help but love it
This list was refreshing/interesting. Too many list feel like a commercial for upcoming products along with "staple" characters/people's mains than a celebration of both brands. Vile is an awesome pick for a megaman villain. Though I wonder which version they will pick. Magma Dragoon would be my other pick for mega man x villain. If we get firebrand again i hope he is based off his demon's crest incarnation where he has elemental gargoyle powers.
Ill play Man-thing. I dont know shit about him, but i would easily play man-thing! He looks dope.
Then, I'd proceed to learn everything about him, Ala Shuma-Gorath.
Then, when I feel like i discovered him myself, I will proceed to talk myself out of convos at parties... because Im really into hiw man-thing plays now.
You Predicted Ryu Erasure in City of the Wolf.
They just going with the popular choice. Natural conclusion.
Son of a gun. He chose Zack and Wiki. I'd go them too as a joke character. Great minds and all that
Other characters I'd consider include -
- Palico
- Vanessa (PN03)
- Someone from Killer 7
- Ibuki
- Dr Wily
Marvel?
- Miles Morales
-
I find your lack of Cyclops disturbing Mcmuscles
After how much the Part 4 Nirvana stuff in Asura's Wrath changed your opinion on the game, really surprised you didn't include him here, even as DLC or an honorable mention,
I would love Kingpin having a special of him making a phone call/sign and having Bullseye shoot the other player from outside the screen
Matt is so good for Man-Thing! He could have a command grab super, because “whatever knows fear, burns at the Man-Thing’s touch!”
@@OverlordNico McMuscles loves a grappler.
I would like to suggest another sword wielding character for Capcom: Maximo from Maximo: Ghosts to Glory and VS Army of Zin. Either to replace Seig from Chaos Legion or as a DLC character. He's technically from Ghosts N' Goblins and he's not Arthur
100% on board with Beta Ray Bill. One of the most underrated Marvel characters of all time.
OMG Sentry too??? I think we're the same person lol
I’m gonna be honest, I love it. But omg people would lose their minds with no Ryu and no Morrigan
ok wait you lost me at dudley
nevermind you brought me back with domino
what a fun roster, exactly the super deep cut freakshow I was hoping to see! Would love if they did even a fifth of these picks, but time will tell.
I do like the idea of Edgeworth being in and being more offensive than Phoenix Wright was
It would be something like putting Zero in over Megaman I think it would be interesting
The weird ventriloquist guy and his puppet from Phoenix Wright was the first character that came to mind and I don’t know why 😂
Potential intro and outro dialogue against the characters??
@@dnmstarsi Oooh, yes!
This is definitely a roster that many of people wouldn't have thought of, but it still feels pretty solid and plausible. I wouldnt really be opposed to a game with this roster
Ema Skye is very unexpected but not unwelcome. I've always wanted Simon Blackquill or Franziska von Karma for another Ace Attorney rep personally though maybe the former's move set potential has too much overlap with Strider?
As great as both would be, no knull and carnage can exist without venom
Honestly there`s so many different and great versions of these chartacters that I`d love to see Capcom implement a variation mechanic like MKX, where each style would correspond to a different character - or maybe even echo fighters, Smash style. So you know, you could get Peter Parker and Miles, Johnny Blaze and Robbie Reyes, Mega Man and X, so on and so forth.
Ryu not coming back is a take and a half
Onslaught, Pyron, Vile and many other villains sold me on your roster!
Jon Talbain on this list, hell fucking yeah, another W for Talbainerssss
22:00 A Marvel vs Capcom game set on Battleworld releasing before the Secret Wars movie is actually inspired.
Bucky is DLC in MVCI so there is a gun using Marvel character in the games. I respect the Angela pick btw, she's an interesting piece of comic trivia. Cosigned on Regina too, she deserves a shot after all these years.
I legit want to see Felicia Hardy, AKA Black Cat.
Imagine her being a jinx character being able to reverse your controls or disabled Supers
Black cat and SpiderGwen, especially after three last spider verse movie. She's an actual great character that marvel has come up with in the last 10-20 years.
Characters I definitely don't want: Captain Marvel or Ms. Marvel (kamala khan). OG Ms. Marvel with the black outfit and sash would be fine, just not the Captain variety or the Kamala Khan version.
I only disagree about not having Deadpool. It is a must have due his popularity.
I like this roster way more than Max’s, though Ema on the base roster while Edgeworth is relegated to *DLC* is WILD
I know this seems like a pipe dream but I feel like we could actually get a big roster like this if Capcom focused on utilizing our current gen technology on providing lots of content instead of using it to add fidelity to each character’s individual eyebrow hairs
I get wanting the Punisher, but I think Elsa Bloodstone would be a cool Marvel gun user also.
Definitely would love Punisher on the roster
I would also like some more Mega Man representation from the GBA and DS franchises. Even Zero's MMZ incarnation barely gets recognition
Yeah, while Vile could fit fairly well as an MvC moveset, it feels really basic to have the X games (plus Wily) be the only Mega Man characters in the roster, especially after Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite had three X characters and gave them story spotlight. While the MMZ version of Zero has Vs. series history with SNK, I think it's honestly prime time for the RPGs to get their full fighting game dues. Bass.EXE, Colonel.EXE, Star Force Mega Man, Harp Note, if you wanted to go weird, NumberMan.EXE or Duo. That said, for Zero/ZX love, there could be Copy X, Harpuia, Omega, Pandora, Aile, or Ashe.
Matt seemed SO CLOSE by picking Command Mission X, but if they really wanted to do a fresh roster, they should use a wholly new "Mega Man" for the Vs. series.
The moment they gave Lady Dee a moveset for Mercenaries... she became perfect to meet Blade in MVC.
Jon Talbain would be an absolute blast to play as in a Marvel VS Capcom setting, using Beast Cannons to navigate the stage, Million Flicker to deflect projectiles and control space, Climb Lasers for Anti Air, Dragon Cannon, Mirage Double and Moment Slice being his Hyper Combos, in other words, basically, I want the VGExiles version of Jon Talbain in a playable form, also get Ed Bosco to voice him.
Matt I highly recommend you check out X Lives of Wolverine if you want to read a rad story in the modern day featuring Omega Red!
Probably the best one of these I've seen someone do. There are definitely snubs (where's Asura) and characters I'm personally kind of over (Felicia) but I would be so hype for this roster overall, Matt definitely understands that the main hype of crossover rosters is seeing characters that you haven't already seen crossover a billion times. Sparda might be the coolest pick I've seen anyone make ever, what a cool idea.
for me an often overlooked character that would be super awesome, especially moveset wise, would be Mysterio
fake clones of himself, illusions, could summon stuff, fly (you know hed have a nasty tri-dash) great cinematic super potential not to mention hed probably have some sick voice lines
hes a little silly sure but he screams marvel vs capcom to me and i can see him fitting in so easily
Daniel Warren Johnson beta ray bill not only fighting with stormbreaker but doing wrestling moves as well would be a dream come true for me
I feel like now we need a Max vs. Matt crossover video where they argue back and forth and make a roster that isn't too basic and vanilla, and one that isn't so out there.
insanity
