Basic Moves
Chain Combos
Chain Combos can be made by hitting the basic attacks in order: Light, then Medium, and finally Hard. Depending on the character, additional combos can be created by stringing together crouching and jumping attacks, or reversing from Medium attacks to Light attacks.
Air Combos
Air Combos are performed by launching the enemy into the air and quickly tapping up. From here you can execute a combo in a similar manner to on the ground. However, because they will fall quickly you must be extra swift with your attacks. Hitting the basics of Light to Medium to Hard will be a quick bet for getting in hits.
Special Moves
Special Moves are attacks and moves specific to each character. Everyone has a range of attacks from projectiles and anti-air to grapples and counters. Check out each character's page to see a list of their special moves.
Hyper Combos
Hyper combos are similar to special moves but require one to three hyper gauges to be performed. They typically use the same motions of special moves, but require pressing two attack buttons at the same time. Depending on the character's assist, they can also unleash a quick hyper by hitting both Partner buttons. Hypers are powerful and a great means of dealing pain to the opponent, however they can still be blocked like any other move to reduce the damage. It's best to leave hypers ready to hit the enemy when they are stunned from another attack, especially a long chain combo.
Throw
Throws can be done by moving close to the enemy and hitting Hard attack along with either back or forward. Throws are deadly in that they can bypass an enemy's guard. To avoid being thrown yourself, input the throw command just before you are thrown to escape.
Snap Back
Snap Backs can be used from a quarter circle forward and either of the partner buttons. It will also use up a hyper gauge bar. If done correctly it will send the opponent flying off screen and summon one of his other teammates. If the partner one button is used, the enemy's first partner will appear, while partner two buttons sends in the second partner. This will also stop the enemy from calling in allies or using assists for a short time.
Guard
Guarding is the basic defense for resisting attacks. Holding back can be used to reduce damage from standing, crouching, and jumping positions. It can be used to block off multi-hit hypers or stop powerful grapple hypers.
Advancing Guard
Advancing Guard can be used while guarding close range attacks. Press two attack buttons while guarding to send the enemy back. This is great for creating distance and interrupting opponent combos.
Crossover Assist
Prior to starting the match you can pick from a list of Crossover Assists. By tapping the Partner button you can call in one of your allies during the fight. They will use a special move before leaping back. Keep in mind however that they can be attacked while on screen, making assists somewhat punishable.
Crossover Counter
Crossover Counters combine assists and guarding to make a great counter attack. While guarding an enemy attack, press forward and a partner button to switch out character and come in with a potent special move. While this can be brutal to the enemy, you will now be playing as one of your reserve team.
Team Hyper Combo
Team Hyper Combos can be performed by inputting another hyper command while the first one is still being used. This will switch out the current character and bring in one of the other team members. This will of course require at least two hyper bars, or three if you wish to use all three characters. You'll want to time in calling in an ally to just before the attack ends, as this will maximize the number of hits and overall damage. Keep in mind that some hypers finish to quickly too be chained in this way.
Crossover Combination
Crossover Combinations uses all three members by hitting both Partner buttons. Crossover Combinations are similar to Team Hyper Combos, but instead of each team member attacking one at a time, all three will use their hypers at once. You will need to store up two gauges to use two characters, and three to use the whole team. It's best to use hypers that won't conflict each other, and instead build off one another. If you use an area attack such as Kikosho, try pairing it with another similar move such as Lightning Storm.
Team Aerial Combo
During an Aerial Combo you can send the enemy flying by hitting the special button along with a direction. Pressing forward or back will deal a small amount of damage, pressing up will increase the damage, and pressing down will slam them and gain a hyper combo gauge. You'll want to mix up your attacks to avoid being countered.
Team Aerial Counter
If you are caught in a Team Aerial Combo you can break free and damage the enemy by inputting the same command as the enemy. If they try to send you upward, counter by pressing up and special. Remember that forward for them is back for you, so press the stick in the same direction that they are.
X-Factor
X-Factor can be used per match by pressing all three attacks along with the special/launcher button. X-Factor can be used to boost damage, pile on defenses and restore lost life. The more teammates that are dead, the stronger and longer lasting X-Factor will be. It's best to wait on using X-Factor until two team members are down.
Power Ups and Debuffs
Some hypers and specials don't cause direct damage, instead they power up your character or hinder the enemy from reaching their full potential. Some moves such as Thor's Mighty Speech will fill the hyper gauge, while others like Arthur's Gold Armor will boost all of his skills for a short time. Among the negative stats in the game include dizzy, slow, disable jump, and confusion.
Ryu
Ryu is a staple character of the Street Fighter series and a basis for many other fighters' move sets. His special moves allow for strong projectiles, quick anti-air attacks, and ease of combos. His hypers are powered up versions of his specials. His Shinku Hadoken can be shot vertically or horizontally by pressing in a direction during the hyper's start-up animation. It can be further adjusted during the move itself by pointing in the desired direct, though the movement is slow.- Stamina: 1,000,000

Morrigan
Morrigan is one of the main characters of Darkstalkers. Although she posses both a fireball and rising uppercut, she plays very little like Ryu. Using the Hard versions of her Soul Fist allows her to fire in alternate directions (Upward while on the ground, forward in the air). Her Dark Harmonizer assist allows her to boost the hyper combo meter quickly. While most of her hypers are offensive, Astral Vision will instead make a mirror image of Morrigan on the other side of the enemy. This clone will mirror all attacks and inputs, but will also be stunned by hits the real Morrigan takes.- Stamina: 950,000

Chris
Chris is star of the Resident Evil series, and makes his fighting game debut here. He uses different types of weapons and grenades as his special moves. Switching between Light, Medium, and Hard will cause Chris to draw a different weapon from machineguns to land mines. He can also move into a prone position that will allow instant pistol fire from Hard attacks. Additionally, he also has access to several special punch combos that can be stringed together for good damage.- Stamina: 1,100,000

Dante
Dante is the main character of Devil May Cry. He has very powerful and useful assists in the form of Jam Session and Crystal. Dante has a huge array of specials that can be performed by using Light, Medium, or Hard after the command. Further, he can cancel out of nearly all of these moves to add in powerful follow ups such as Fireworks and Million Carats. His huge arsenal of close range sword attacks and long range gunfire provides Dante with a lot of option and variety, making it difficult to prepare for. His Devil Trigger is a buff that gives around a 15% damage boost. It further gives him access to two special moves that can only be used during Devil Trigger mode.- Stamina: 900,000

Felicia
Felicia is yet another Darkstalkers character. Several of her moves require following-up from a Rolling Buckler to produce more hits and damage. Her Hard Delta Kick has a long range, almost enough to over shoot enemies or miss a few hits if they are at the wrong distance. Her EX Charge allows for quick restoration of the hyper combo meter, but leaves her vulnerable during the animation. Kitty's Helper will call in a smaller cat girl that will leap each time Felicia make an attack, however this buff will disappear if you tag her out.- Stamina: 875,000

Trish
Trish is yet another new comer from the Devil My Cry games. Her main moves consist of the Trick traps that can be used to bait or surprise enemies, and several ranged attacks. The amount of bolts fired from Low Voltage increase when using Light, Medium or Hard. Switch signs can be used to slow down Round-Trip, adding in more hits and damage as it returns back to Trish. Round Harvest is a powered up version of Round-Trip that tracks the enemy. However, it quickly exits the hyper animation, making difficult to chain team hyper combos.- Stamina: 850,000

Chun-Li
Chun-Li is another star of the Street fighter series. Unlike Ryu and other characters projectiles, Chun-Li's Kikoken crosses a longer distance the slower it travels; using it with a Light command will cause it to cross a long distance at a slow rate, while a Hard will allow it to move quickly over a very short range. When used as an assist Chun-Li will opt for the Light Kikoken. Despite being the hyper version of her fireball, Chun-Li's Kikosho fires in an area of effect bubble rather than as a projectile or beam. For Crossover combinations you may want to consider pairing it with other circular burst attacks such as Super-Skrull's Inferno.- Stamina: 850,000

Equipping each of these items changes the attacks and special moves available to you at a given time.

Viewtiful Joe
Joe has several moves that can be charged by holding down the attack button. In some cases this can increase the damage output, increase the move's distance, while other times it will simply delay the attack. His Air Joe move differs from other rapid tap attack in that it requires being in the air and will not continue upon reaching the ground. Unlike most massive projectile hypers that hit many times, Desperado only fires a single power shot.- Stamina: 950,000

Tron
Tron has several powerful multi-hit attacks just in her basic standing and crouching attacks. She can even unleash a constant projectile attack--throwing boulders--from her command standing Hard. In addition she is reasonably tough with a bonus amount of stamina. Her Beacon Bomb doesn't actually combo on its own, but can be used quickly in succession while the enemy is stunned.- Stamina: 1,200,000

Wesker
Wesker relies on quick strings of deceptive attacks and elusive escapes. He can whip out his pistol during Hard command attacks while standing, crouching, and even jumping. His Phantom Move can be used to teleport all over the area; Light will bring him closer to the enemy, Medium will cause a retreat, and Heavy will warp him right above the opponent. This can be a great means for getting a jump on the enemy. His Tiger Uppercut is a counter attack that can punish attacks or reflect projectiles (the Hard version). His Rhino Charge is also a counter that requires the enemy to be making an attack in order to take damage.- Stamina: 1,100,000

Arthur
Arthur can make use of Gold armor to give himself a 20% defense boost and change the effects of several of his attacks. Scatter Crossbow for instance will gain an additional third hit. Other attacks will actually deal fewer hits but cause more damage, such as Lance Toss. When using gold Armor a meter will appear just above the hyper combo gauge. When this depletes Arthur's armor will break and he will instead take a 30% defense penalty. Gold Armor can be used again to restore him back to normal. Because of this, it's best to wait on changing armors until either you have a second bar or are able to call in a partner to build your gauge. Better yet, he will retain his boosts when being called in to assist, making him a very powerful reserve partner.- Stamina: 800,000

Spencer
Spencer combines an interesting blend of having a range grapple. He can use Wire Grapple to clutch an enemy in front or above of him and follow up with an attack, or simply drag them closer. Jaw Breaker and Smash Kick are also very power close range throws that can be used. Following-Up with Smash Kick very quickly can cause a Critical Smash for bonus damage. His Bionic Lancer will launch enemies into the air, so for team hyper combos its best used with attacks that will also hit vertically or at an angle, such as Zero's Rekkoha.- Stamina: 1,050,000

Zero
Zero can make use of several projectile attacks, including both the Hadangeki sword beam and his charged Hyper Zero Blaster. The latter can be held on during other moves, including supers. His Hienkyaku can be used to travel close, behind, or even above the enemy quickly. His Sougenmu will create a Zero clone that will mirror all of his actions. You can even use this hyper combo and switch Zero out. Each time he is used as an assist the Sougenmu double will also appear to deal extra punishment.- Stamina: 800,000

Haggar
Haggar is rather durable with an increased amount of stamina. His attacks use a series of grapples and close range hits to deal brutal damage. Because both his specials and a few hypers require grappling an enemy, they are difficult to combo or link into team hypers. However, the sheer amount of damage can out weight the number of hits.- Stamina: 1,200,000

Akuma
Akuma is boss from the Street Fighter series. He is the first character unlocked by acquiring player points. Akuma is similar to Ryu, but sacrifices stamina for more deadly offense options. His Zanku Hadoken fires at an angle rather than horizontally. His Hyakkishu allows for quick leaps and a diverse amount of follow-ups. Ashura Senku will quickly advance Akuma either closer or further from the enemy, and can be a great way to get behind them. The Ungyo version of his hypers can be achieved by holding down the Hard attack during the attack animation. This will turn the projectile into a single focused beam, rather than a series of multiple fireballs.- Stamina: 800,000

Hsien-Ko
Hsien-Ko is the third member of the Darkstalkers. She is the third character unlocked by gaining player points. Anki Hou will toss out random objects that can cause various damage or even cause a dizzy effect; in some rare cases it will also launch timed bombs. Senpu Bu can be used over and over, but due to the fact that it will likely send Hsien Ko to the other side of the enemy, you will have to constantly reverse the motion. Henkyo Ki fires a projectile, but can also be used to absorb or reflect some enemy projectiles; however some range attacks such as Deadpool's Trigger Happy can't be blocked in this way.- Stamina: 900,000

Wolverine
Wolverine is among the most popular X-men. His attacks are all about rush downs and closing the distance with the enemy. Drill Claw is a great way to get up close and personal. Fatal Claw can be tricky to use, as it attacks in an "X" shaped burst around Wolverine; it can be used easier as an anti-air move.- Stamina: 950,000

Hulk
Hulk has a high amount of defense, allowing him to survive some deadly attacks. His Hard attacks are nothing to scoff at either. His big advantage is being able to string together Gamma Charges. For his normal Gamma Chare, a Light attack will add a second horizontal attack, Medium will turn it into an anti-air, and Hard will provide an escape. For his anti-air Gamma Charge Light will perform a second anti-air, Medium will attack forward, and Hard will slam in a downward angle. To mix things even further Hulk has access to three different team hyper combos, allowing for a lot of versatility with his partners.- Stamina: 1,200,000

Deadpool
Deadpool can use different levels of Light, Medium and Hard to change the properties of his Trigger Happy and Ninja Gift attacks. These can range from fire from an angle, to tossing out grenades. With his TELEPORT the attack command will correspond to his position on screen and not the distance from the enemy. Light attack will send him to the left of the screen, Medium to the center, and Hard to the right. Every third TELEPORT will cause a failure that will both damage Deadpool and the enemy.- Stamina: 900,000

Captain America's Shield Slash can hit twice: once when coming towards the enemy and a second time on the return. Charging Star can be a good way of rushing down the enemy and Stars & Stripes is Captain America's anti-air. Despite the name, Backflip will actually send Captain America closer to the enemy instead of being used as a retreat. However, it can also be used to get behind the opponent.- Stamina: 1,050,000

Super-Skrull
Super-Skrull has incredible means of rushing down and chipping away at the enemy. Tenderizer is excellent for adding in hits or forcing the enemy into the defensive. Orbital Grudge is also great for rushing the enemy. Much like Deadpool's TELEPORT, Super-Skrull's Meteor Smash doesn't factor in the position from the enemy; instead Light will cause a land on the left, Medium in the center, and Hard to the right. Inferno is a very powerful attack with good range and should be paired with other area burst hypers.- Stamina: 1,000,000

Thor
Thor is rather slow but makes up for it will strong attacks and the second highest stamina in the game. Several of his attacks require getting very close to the enemy, but he doesn't have extra means of getting in close. His Mighty Speech can be used to quickly fill the hyper combo gauge, but can be risky if the enemy can still attack.- Stamina: 1,250,000

Dormammu
Dormammu can mix together up to three spells. He can store three Destructions, three Creations, or a two-to-one combination. Dormammu can also use Liberation to launch these stored spells early, although they will be some what weaker. A full powered Creation doesn't do much damage, but can be used to cripple the enemy's movement options. Because casting spells will likely interrupt combos, it's best to store the spells before starting a serious chain of attacks.- Stamina: 1,000,000

X-23
While X-23 is a clone of Wolverine in the Marvel comics, she plays nothing like him in this game. She is still a rush down character, but has even more options while both on the ground and in the air. All three of her Slice attacks can be charged up for extra power and speed. Mirage Feint can be used to get in close or even behind the enemy. Silent Kill will first turn X-23 invisible, allowing for some extra attacks. However, it's the deadly finisher used with the Special/Launcher button that will really hurt the enemy.- Stamina: 850,000

Spider-Man
Like many other character, Spider-Man takes several cues from Ryu. Spider-Man has access to a projectile in the form of Web Ball and an anti-air uppercut with Spider sting. This uppercut can be further followed up with a Spider-Bite that will do extra damage and slam down the opponent. Ultimate Web Throw can be hard to use as the enemy must already be in the air for it to work- Stamina: 900,000

M.O.D.O.K.
M.O.D.O.K. can use Analyze Cube to store up Psionic Energy. This energy can be used to power up other moves such as Psionic High Blast, Jamming Bomb and even a powered Barrier. Pressing back and the Special button will launch a large shield that can block nearly every projectile. This can turn M.O.D.O.K. into the ultimate turtling character. Place up a Psionic barrier and send out bombs and blasts. If the enemy stays away, use Analyze Cube to restore energy and grab them with Killer Illumination when they get close. Barrier can also be used to protect enemy via assist, or even ones that linger after M.O.D.O.K. tags out.- Stamina: 950,000

Magneto
Magneto has access to quite a plethora of ranged attacks. His Electromagnetic Disruptor fires a quick beam of energy, while his Magnetic Blast is a specific air attack that is one of the only moves that uses a downward quarter circle. Force Field is also a good counter that can deal damage or absorb projectiles. He has some excellent assists that can be paired with many other attacks such as Storm's Whirlwind and Double Typhoon.- Stamina: 850,000

She-Hulk
She-Hulk's moves require quite a lot of set ups that can take time. To counter act this start off with a Heavy Strike that will cause the enemy to become dizzy. Nearly all of her specials stem from Runner's Start and either Chariot or Catapult. Likewise, She-Hulk can gain more hits from Emerald Cannon by adding in Emerald Impulse and Emerald Disaster. Road Rage can be used at a distance if you want to use the car as a sort of projectile. However, it's only at close range that it will result in heavy damage.- Stamina: 1,150,000

Storm uses a number of ranged attacks. However, some of them are either slow on their own or require a few seconds to fire. She does have the advantage of being able to use nearly all of her abilities in the air. Lightning Storm attacks in a large circular burst, and while it doesn't do a huge amount of hits it can be used to great effect in crossover combinations with other similar attacks such as Super-Skrull's Inferno.- Stamina: 850,000

Phoenix
Phoenix is the game's glass cannon: she can use very deadly attacks but has among the worst stamina of any fighter. She has only the third of the life of beefy characters such as Thor and Hulk. This can be very risky when the enemy has access to even level 1 hypers. However, Dark Phoenix Rising is very powerful. If you manage to store five hyper gauges when Phoenix dies, she will automatically be reborn as Dark Phoenix. She takes constant healable damage and her attacks get a damage boost. The best options are to put up Healing Field quickly and let loose an X-Factor. In this state she can kill most opponents with one hyper or a good combo. Remember though: Healing Field only works while the enemy is inside the bubble.- Stamina: 420,000

Sentinel
Sentinel is the second character unlocked with player points. He is a powerhouse with the highest stamina in the game and very deadly attacks. Both his standing and crouching Hard attacks fire a five hit projectile that can be great against unsuspecting enemies; it is however a little slow. His standing attacks can be hard to combo, so consider starting from a crouching position. His large stature also makes him susceptible to attacks that might pass over other characters. Most of his specials are short to medium range, so you'll want to close the distance as much as possible. However, Hard Drive works best when hitting an already airborne enemy from a medium distance.- Stamina: 1,300,000

Taskmaster is the fourth character gain from player points. He using a large series of counters and follow-ups to punish the enemy. His entire series of Head Butt attacks require his Sword Master attacks to be blocked. His Aim Master attacks can be altered with the various attack buttons: Light for forward, Medium for angled, and Heavy for straight above. Legion Arrow also works in the same manner: Light + Medium will fire forward, Light + Medium will fire at an angle, and Medium + Heavy will shoot upward.- Stamina: 1,100,000

Against Galactus
In the seventh round of Arcade mode you will face against Galactus and his Heralds. You will first face off a dual combo of Wesker, Doctor Doom, Dormammu, and/or Akuma (if he's been unlocked). You will always fight one Capcom and one Marvel rep. You can only directly fight the first enemy that appears, which can be deadly if the second member gets behind you. Recklessly calling in assists or switching partners can be risky as you can easily be sandwiched between combos and hypers. Thankfully the Heralds share one life bar, making them easy targets to large scale hypers. Moves such as Iron Man's Proton Cannon and Super-Skrull's Inferno can quickly chip off these minions.
After taking out the goons you'll face Galactus right away. There will be no health restore or revival of fallen allies. On the plus side you will retain any built up hyper bars. At first Galactus will swing his fists a few times. Block these hits and when he finally stops, hit him hard with chain combos and level one hypers. He'll also attempt to Snap back with the flick of his finger. If a weakened teammate comes in, guard for as much as you can before tagging out when it's safe. If he pushes you back, quickly rush back to him by tapping forward or pressing two attacks.
As Galactus takes more damage he may enter the background. From here he will likely grasp you between his palms. Mash the attack buttons and stick to get out quickly. He may also shoot out a huge wave of lasers. Even while blocking this can deal out a combo worth hundreds of hits. If you can, try to leap up into the air before this can hit you. Galactus will let up every few seconds, allowing for a quick series of level one hypers to finish him off.
