Introduction

image:MvC2cyclops.png

This character, though not a god-tier character, is extremely solid in both ranged and close-up gameplay. Coupled with characters like Sentinel, his anti-air assist is among the best in the game, and his zoning is solid.

If you like Captain Commando's assist, then this character is very similar in respects to assist use, but has a better combo game, and builds meter incredibly fast, having the use of a double-jump and two roundhouse variations.

Note that his infinite is partially broken on the Xbox 360 and PS3 version.

The Basics

You can beat most noobs via running away and throwing out Optic Blasts and Optic Bullets until you have levels. When you have levels, use Mega Optic Blast to chip. If they get close, doublejump away and mash sjHK as you go to get more meter. This beats most low tier teams pretty easily.
