Introduction

High Speed Venom (ハイスピードヴェノム, Hai Supīdo Venomu) (also known as Red Venom or Hyper Venom), or simply Dash Venom is a secret character in Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes. He is an orange colored Venom, resembling Carnage. When confronted as a CPU opponent during Arcade Mode, Hi-Speed Venom is introduced by Onslaught before the battle begins. In the Japanese version, Onslaught refers to him as his "servant" and orders him to destroy everything and to bring desperation equally to all of humanity. In the English version, he shouts at the player to "witness the might of Onslaught unleashed!".

This lines of dialogue imply Hi-Speed Venom is a clone of the real Venom created by Onslaught's psychic powers.

Hi-Speed Venom's ending, just like those of the other Marvel secret characters in the game, is him simply doing his character select animation in front of the Hyper Combo background while the text "Congratulations! You've defeated the game with a secret character!" appears underneath him.

Venom embodies the Glass Cannon archetype, hell i'd even go on my way to call him a Straw Nuke. He has access to not only an easy Infinite and alot of combo variety, he also has access to a plethora of big normals, big damage tools and not to mention his speed, making him on-par with Wolverine in terms of mobility and agility. It all comes with a price though, with how much damage he deals, they made him have a huge downside which is him taking twice as much damage compared to the other cast members of the game, a character like this requires a good foundation of game knowledge, fundamentals, and execution because despite his infinite being easy to do, once u drop it? Unless you will do a grab reset or a reset of some form, you will eat a nasty punish that could cost your character being dead.

	Divine	USA	Kailera/GGPO/Fightcade 1/2	Youtube: [1] Fightcade: [2]	The most dominant Red Venom main out there, he also has a really nasty Wolverine that can kill you in one juggle in the corner. This savage is also responsible for recording a good amount of game footage from the early days pre-dating 2004. Status: Retired
	silent-ninja	USA	Fightcade 1-2/GGPO	FightCade: [3] Youtube: [4]	Another player who's been a force to be reckoned with from the GGPO days. He's more known for his Wolverine though but this man has always been killing it with his Red Venom. Definitely worth watching. Status: Inactive
	Sinister Cow/rainJP	USA	GGPO/Fightcade 1/2	FightCade: [5]	Another great player of the GGPO era, he had alot of alts during the GGPO era and due to GGPO being gone, I couldn't grab any but he mainly uses rainJP on Fightcade. Status: Somewhat active
	Anzures/-Anz	USA	Kailera/GGPO/Fightcade 1/2	Youtube: [6] Fightcade: [7] [8]	Venom/Red Venom Artistrocrat, despite him being known for his Venom, his Red Venom is no joke due to all the knowledge he has got from playing Venom, playing Red Venom for him feels more like a breeze for One Hit Kills.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Huge Damage Potential Has one of the easiest and most consistent Infinites Fast Mobility Big normals that can be used for keeping out or converting to combos Builds meter easily with his combos and could also convert to another Infinite from super Is on-par with Wolverine once played right

Steep Learning Curve He Takes More Damage than the rest of the cast Supers are pretty unsafe without an assist, a confirm or Duo Needs a good sense of fundamentals and game knowledge to utilize properly Relies on Execution and Good Gameplan - You can say he's an easy character or he requires no execution in which I disagree, because the moment you drop his combo or Infinite without resetting is the moment where u will see Red Venom shattering to pieces. You want everything to go run-on-the-mill with Red Venom because once you do a simple mistep like let's say you doing an Airdash j.mk then you getting punished with a Colossus assist. The moment you get hit is when the character usually dies. Red Venom takes so much damage to the point where a Wolverine magic series combo to OTG Grab Reset is considered a ToD against Red Venom, that is how much damage he takes, which is why it takes time to learn him.

Due to this normal being very fast and building quite a bit of meter, you can use it similarly to how Cyclops uses his j.HK to build meter in MvC2.
