Morrigan

Grade: S+



Pros: Amazing defensive normals against rush down characters, Fireball is very good to throw out as a defensive tool, Astral Vision is amazing and very hard for characters to stop the fireballs from behind.

Very good air mobility.



Cons: Poor ground mobility and has no dash there, loses if you can bait her to push block which causes her to do a back dash fly. Combos are not very damaging.

Vergil

Grade: S+

Probably the best X Factor 3 comeback in the game. Helm Breaker very strong priority which has the highest success rate for "Happy Birthdays." And Round trip glitch pressure too strong.



Cons: Low health and bad air mobility when not in Devil Trigger. Also relies too much on meter.

Hey guys, this time this tier list will consist of the cast in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Now before I start I just want to say this is my opinion on all these characters and anyone can disagree or agree.In the partner section, the people listed there can be an assist that would be helpful or they can use the assist to help their game. For example: Wolverine loves Tatsu assist but Akuma loves Dr. Doom assist. You might see a lot of Doctor Dooms, Vergils in those sections, just a heads up. =pI will have a grade system running from S+, S, S-, A+, A, A- B+, B, B-, C+ C, C- and D with S+ being highest and D being lowest.Hit the link below to check out the list.
