Introduction
Want to use the Infinity Gauntlet to perfectly balance your opponent's face? Pick this guy!
Previously, Thanos appeared as a boss in Marvel Super Heroes, but he got screwed up in the transition to MVC2. He doesn’t have all the ridiculous moves he had when he was a boss in MSH, but he does have most of the same super moves. He's considered to be a low-mid tier character in this game, despite how powerful he is in the comics. That said, he's still strong if used right.
Thanos is best used as a middle or an anchor due to his reliance on meter. He does amazing damage, but really needs super levels to be effective. His mobility is also rather limited, and he cannot air throw, unlike everyone else. He’s also the only character in the game with a run instead of a dash.
TODO- Frame data, missing images like taunts and assists, move commentaries, other missing data
Thanos wields the Infinity Gauntlet to squash enemies with his selection of powerful super moves. While he does great damage with his whole kit, his biggest weaknesses are his lack of mobility and his heavy reliance on meter.

The Basics
Thanos needs levels to be effective. His normals are good, for the most part, but his supers allow him to disregard his mediocre mobility with massive hitboxes that can pin your opponent down for big damage. If you need more meter, though, your options are limited. You may be able to superjump and Titan Crush around for a while to build a little meter, but that doesn't build much. As such, consider having a battery first, and using Thanos-A to set up great combos.
Advanced Strategy
Fun Stuff
Gauntlet Power glitch
Do the Gauntlet Power super but DHC out before it leaves his hand. (This is a 3-4 frame window: it has to be done very very quickly.) It won't leave but will instead stick to him.
