You can also combo into his Royal Flush from his launcher. When he knocks the opponent is in the air, Gambit hurls his stall straight up in the air at the start of his super, knocking them down into the barrage of cards being thrown from the super. I always loved that inclusion of the staff lol

When he does royal flush, the staff has a hit box. If I remember correctly, you can launch the opponent and go into the super and the staff will knock them back down. I might be confusing this with MVC1 but I think it works in this game.
Great video! As an added bonus for his supers - You can actually hit someone with his staff when he throws it in the air for the royal flush. I believe it will knock them into his cards. You can also choose which side to do the Cajon explosion, though it's risky because he will flip to the other side of the screen and can get hit while doing so.
My favorite feature of Gambit's is that if you launcher into Royal Flush, his staff will knock the opponent down into the super, albeit for reduced damage. Still, style points and awesome character design.
everyone thinks that when they start out and it never lasts that long. plus a lot of what you’re seeing on screen is assists doing the work and your scouting out an opening, that’s it. just play the game, you won’t not have fun
This is why back then, there were fighting game players and then there were MvC players. MvC players were always in a different class. Just like how anime game fighters were.
Idk Y I watch your channel, I don't give a damn about fighting videos games or tournaments, but I find myself coming back time and time again. I think that's a testament to the way you present such in depth information in an easy to understand way. Well done big guy.
Don't forget: During startup on Royal Flush, Gambit throws his rod up into the air and can cause knockdown into the super attack if opponents attempt to jump over the initial attack and over him (or behind if you're unlucky). Might be useful if your opponent avoids a ground-based DHC or you believe Cajun Explosion won't hit or push back on position.
You can even combo the stick part from the launcher too if you really want and I think maybe from a DHC from a hyper has the opponent directly above you point character too. ( Examples maybe (Haven't played it in years , unsure if they connect , or just fly out of the combo and the stick misses : Jin's Ulimate Cyclone , Sakura's vertical super hurricane hyper , Dr Doom's Sphere flame , Akuma's vertical rising Hurricane hyper ... etc ...)

Yes, I love this Marvel vs Capcom 2 content, I'm just now getting into this game, so it's great timing. I really hope to see more of these kinds of videos!
I would love a vid on Hayato and Silver Samurai! Jmcrofts vids are always fun, I love that he’s not afraid to show his losses and that’s it’s all fun, unlike some content creators who only show matches against scrubs that are clueless
I second the Silver Samurai video! He was a staple in my low tier team. His chip is GOD LIKE, and he builds super really quick. Pair him with Doom rocks assist, you can do a simple block string into Doom, then do his projectile which I think does just as much (if not more) damage when you block it. Plus you can change the direction of it once you've thrown it, so you can arch it up to stop jump outs and stuff. It's seriously Strider/Doom level chip. Then when you build enough meter, his lightning super fills the whole screen and has super fast start up. I switch it up and do a block string into a sweep with Doom assist once I have super, and if I catch them with a sweep, immediately cancel into lightning super (and MASH!!!). Silver Samurai doesn't get near enough credit I think.
I think he's beloved since he's always been pretty good in the vs. Game. I remember running Charlie and Gambit for scoops to combos and such in xmen vs SF etc.
My go-to Gambit is projectile type/Ruby Heart on anti-air/ War Machine also anti-air. The reason for this is they are all fun to play, have tricky flexibility to keep people guessing, and the assists all hold enemies in place, setting up War Machine's jumping infinite, allowing all of his super missiles to hit instead of juggling, and Incredible DHC matchups. Cajun Strike while Repulsor Blast is on-screen might not phase the CPU but is sure as hell tricks live opponents.
Me and my opponent were both down to a sliver of health, he jumped in to try and cross me up, I did the Royal Flush. When activated Gambit throws his staff into the air before throwing the cards, that staff saved the match for me, that was the most stylish and dopest finish I have ever performed!
Whoa, I love playing fighting games, but I did not know that its like rocket science, I'm a Gmabit fan, I love using him in X-men VS Street Fighter and MVC1 he is top tier in that series
heya jmcrofts, good shit as always! Just a little tip if you didn't know, when you're doing Doom's air combo into super, if you dash up just before you do the super, it won't combo, but all of the finger lasers hit the blocking character, which does just as much (if not more) damage than if they didn't block. Plus if you do it on an assist character (at 12:57 in your video), has the added bonus of resetting the combo, and doing hella damage to them.
Man it was so hype playing as all my favorite marvel superheroes in a single game as a young kid it blew my mind I still remember my first time seeing my brother playing it in the arcades with his iceman sentinel magneto team lol
Don’t preach the old texts to me. I was there when they were written. Everyone slept on gambit and doom back in the day, those two plus black heart were my team, and they are a nasty ass combo
I remember playing this when I was younger I always used gambit cause I love gambit and now seeing how you guys play makes me nervous I need to get good lol
Enjoyed the video. My experience has shown me, most players stick to top tier characters and usually don't play well outside of moved to keep you at a distance.
Gambit is good in every MVC game! 😁 *Kinetic Card!* While Gambit is low/mid-tier in MvC2, his 2D sprite is always top-tier. Exploring the lower-tier characters of MvC2 never gets old to me. Great video man! 🔥
I absolutely appreciate that you explained why players always swap in tournament. I realized it while you were explaining it but I never knew this. J played this game of dreamcast and was never aware of this interaction. So for almost 2 decades I've been wondering why do players do that. Thank you
Watch that combo video for MVC2 Justin just put up. There's some seriously insane Gambit tech and infinites in there that might put some new life into this character when MVC2 gets re-released
Gambit is absolutely one of the best characters in Marvel vs. Capcom 2. And he's personally one of my favorites of All-time in Marvel vs. Capcom games!!!
One thing you forgot to mention that is also good is gambits cajun strike. The light one comes out quick and it is also one of his assits. His cajun strike has three different variations and you can even do an otg combo with it
His power is called Kinetic energy. Which he can tranfer into anything and make it an explosive. He uses cards because his power can tranfer to them the fastest...and it looks cool.
@@devinewynder5443 Mostly he uses cards because it's a cheap, compact and lightweight conduit for kinetic energy that can be re-supplied pretty much anywhere.
You can combo crouched hard punch and then Royal flush. Or kinetic card with hard punch+ kinetic card with soft punch+ Royal flush (if you're in one screen corner and the enemy in the other one).
You can actually flip behind them with Cajun explosion… depending on what direction you input. It’s the original command and then the direction you want gambit to flip.
I'm surprised he didn't mention that during his Royal Flush, Gambit's stick hits on the way up and perfectly smacks the opponent into his card barrage.
Hey guys, I never comment on any RUclips videos but I want to leave this info here in case some don't know about it. Like this if you find it helpful. Gambit will do his mid level bow staff combo attack (the one the computer player does and you can't and probably the most useful one) if you input shoryuken motion and HP + LK simultaneously. Cheers!
Great video! Gambit is a great mid tier with great hitboxes. One thing regarding the switch glitch, the normal comes out on the 2nd possible frame if held. The same normal manually timed can beat a switch glitch.
Royal Flush is slow if you are not right next to them. If you are though the stick hits the enemy as he casts which will ensure you connect. you can also hit with the stick as an anti air and bounce people into it.
Love this analysis please do more!! I watched and never played MvC2 being young and broke. So this is sort of the next best thing lol (huge fan of UMVC3 watched plenty of tourney play on that)
Lol i personally think tiers ruin the game cause people would only play the 'top tiers' and just forget about everybody else, i can't tell u how many times i have fought msp today
It's important to note that encouraging people to pick any character to like is a good thing, but also that if they want to get good with a lower tier character (depending on the game), how good they can get is limited.
The tiers exist for a reason. Low/mid tier character have to work harder for the win because they have less tools than top/high tiers. Let me put it to you this way. Top tiers have a gun, mid tiers have a sword and low tiers have a stick. Sure they can all kill u but how much work do they all have to put in to get the kill.
I don't know if you know this, but at least in X-Men vs. Street fighter, you can combo into his Royal flush by doing his launcher into Royal Flush. the stick thrown upward will knock them back down right into the Royal Flush. I assume it's the same in this game too.
When gambit performs hes Royal Flush super he also throw is staff in the air and knocks the opponent down if they are in the air ... they will get hit with a few cards but you can combo in another super.
Gambit, Strider, Wolverine was one of my go to. Silver samurai and Jin were also some of my dudes. Shit i miss this game. And my bro with who i was playing it.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)

Top tiers have a gun, mid tiers have a sword and low tiers have a stick. Sure they can all kill u but how much work do they all have to put in to get the kill.
Tiers are real.
Then get bodied because the characters you like get bodied by Cable.

Tronne Bonne's laugh and pose when she does her assist cracks me up
I really love gambit using royalX card throw.Anti air and follow up combo air is great and with Ken I think it is pretty perfect both.
Amazing we have new MVC2 content in 2021
this is going to be a great series
Such a good character dude. I always use him
It’d be cool to see a video like this about megaman in mvc2!
Strider combos are insane too. I have seen people using gambit, strider & magneto. For me i like using guile, iceman & storm
The best part of the X-Men cartoon is when Gambit says anything.
Man I can beat the breaks off someone with Gambit.One of my favorite comic characters.
I don't know if you know this, but at least in X-Men vs. Street fighter, you can combo into his Royal flush by doing his launcher into Royal Flush. the stick thrown upward will knock them back down right into the Royal Flush. I assume it's the same in this game too.
You can use his Cajun explosion on the other side of the screen just aim behind the opponent
One thing I didn't see mentioned about his Cajun explosion super is that it can be used to cross up too, since it can be done to either wall
I can never forget the Gambit Glitch XD
Nice, gambit was one of the best in the first game.SOLD.
When gambit performs hes Royal Flush super he also throw is staff in the air and knocks the opponent down if they are in the air ... they will get hit with a few cards but you can combo in another super.
Love this mvc2 content. Mvci is currently on Xbox game pass. Game got no love but I’m loving it too rn
Gambit, Strider, Wolverine was one of my go to. Silver samurai and Jin were also some of my dudes. Shit i miss this game. And my bro with who i was playing it.
I main Gambit since the first marvel he good
Think just i found my last character for my team Gambit/Storm/Cyclops.
Also can we talk about his cape idle animation oh my godness
Lets be honest we only pick Gambit when we feelin ourselves
Marvel vs Capcom 2 is a magical game. How many other franchises converted 3d characters into amazing sprites? Such a fun game
I'd like to see a video on shuma-gorath! My favorite character!
