Everyone rumored, no one believed. This is the comeback we were all waiting for.
Everyone rumored, no one believed.


Roll, truly the last Ultimate All-Star of our time, finally emerges from Mega Man's shadow in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. Going from a virtually unplayable clone of her brother in Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (with very poor sprite quality compared to the rest of the cast, might I add), so bad that even Servbot is more viable (since he's at least so small that he's hard to combo), Roll has been promoted to the CvS2 Zangief
The comeback we were all yearning for.
 
Roll, truly the last and greatest Ultimate All-Star of our time, finally emerges from her brother's shadow in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. Going from a virtually unplayable clone of Mega Man in Marvel vs. Capcom 2, so bad that even Servbot is more viable, Roll has been given her own original moveset based around her lethal housekeeping skills and her hi-tech broom.
 
Roll is a unique character in TvC.  She's used mostly on anchor due to her strong assist and ability to control neutral with her notorious {{TvC-Colors|red|j.C}}.  She can do situationally very high damage with 2 separate power up mechanics, but can have problems converting off of some hits.  She is also the undisputed ruler of unburstable damage, with a number of OTG hits that can not be escaped.
 
{{ProConTable
|pros=
* Small body privilege
* Relaunches from anywhere on the screen
* Healing
* Can pump out unburstable damage when needed
* Good DHCs
* Splash powerup gives her an insane damage boost
* Assist is annoyingly good
* Can wavedash her air dash
|cons=
* Normals are a little stubby
* Can't convert off {{TvC-Colors|red|j.C}} normally like the rest of the cast
* Despite her overhead being good her followup options are limited unless she gambles on baroque
* Health isn't lowest but is down there

=Move List=
=Move List=
===Normal Moves===
*'''5a''' - An extremely fast little slap poke.  These will come out basically as fast as you can mash.  While it's probably the fastest poke in the game, it has really sad range. Use it to harass people, or even as a reversal at close range, it can really surprise people.
*'''5b''' - Roll sweeps twice with her broom.  This move is interesting because it gives roll a lot of frame advantage even if you don't cancel it.  So much, in fact, that you can link it into itself, along with other things such as j.a, which leads into an infinite on Tekkaman.
*'''5c''' - A single, slower broom sweep. It's combo filler, but unlike in CGoH, it gives you enough frames to combo into launcher.
*'''2a''' - Roll kicks out in front of her with a pretty standard crouching poke kick.  Slower, but longer range than 5a.
*'''2b''' - Roll lays down and kicks both legs out in front of her.  This attack is really good for a couple reasons. It moves forwards a long ways, it comes out fast, and roll lays down almost flat on the ground, making it very easy to go around any standing attacks or even certain crouching attacks.
*'''2c''' - Roll takes her broom and smacks the legs out from under your opponent.  This move is good to start sweep combos, but has a nice long disjointed hit box over the broom so you're pretty safe to poke with this attack as long as you space it right.
===Command Normals===
*'''6b''' - Roll jumps up and hits the enemy over the head with her broom. While you cannot ground combo with this normal move, you can use this to trick your enemy into landing either a Roll Broom Swing (236A/B/C) or one of her supers.
*'''3c''' - She takes the broom and smacks upwards, launching. Like the 2c, it's a little slow, but she hides behind the broom, so it can be good as an anti-air.
===Special Moves===
*'''Roll Broom Swing''' - ''236A/B/C (this move can also be done in the air)'': Roll takes her broom and smacks the enemy. If the enemy hits, the enemy will fly slightly fly in the air. This special move causes knockdown. Each version launches the enemy in the air at different heights. The A version will launch the enemy slightly above Roll's head, the B version will launch the enemy slightly below Roll's normal jump height, and the C version will launch the enemy at Roll's normal jump height. You can use this special move in both her ground and air combos. If you use this special during an air combo, it is possible to juggle your enemy to continue a few extra sets of air combos (this can only be done in the corner, and timing must be exact). Roll Broom Swing does 2,800 Billion Damage. However, when Roll uses her powered up version of Roll Broom Swing (see Roll Power Up! special move for more information below), Roll Broom Swing will now bounce the enemy (all three versions) off the wall (i.e. wall bounce effect), and her damage output increases. Powered up A version of Roll Broom Swing does 4,000 Billion Damage, powered up B version of Roll Broom Swing does 4,400 Billion Damage, and powered up C version of Roll Broom Swing does 4,800 Billion Damage. You can use the powered up version of this special in both ground and air combos (and to continue either your ground or air combo).
*'''Roll Splash''' - ''623A/B/C'': Roll takes a bucket full of water and throws the water at her enemy. If you do not hit the enemy with this special move, a water puddle will form. The water puddle will last around 7 second until it dissipates. Each version travels its own distance. The A version will travel less than half-way across the screen, the B version travels half way across the screen, and the C version travels almost all the way across the screen. If an enemy walks or lands on the water puddle, it will cause the enemy to slip (causing a knockdown). If the enemy is lying on the ground, you can use Roll Splash to add another hit. If the enemy is close to you when you use Roll Splash, regardless which version you use, you will cause the enemy to stagger. You cannot use this in a ground combo; however, after you use this special, you can follow up this special with a ground combo. The powered up version of this special (see Roll Power Up! special move for more information below), regardless which version you use (A/B/C), will make Roll throw the water at her enemy. The water travels all the way across the screen, does 3 hits, and does around 6,100 Billion Damage. You cannot combo into the powered up version of Roll Splash unless you Baroque a move beforehand (in which it gives you the ability to combo with powered up Water Splash).
*'''Roll Power Up!''' - ''214A/B/C'': Roll's broom lights up, increasing her power (damage output) for all of her normal and special moves. Roll Broom Swing, Roll Mop Up (including the follow-up, "fire scrub" special), and Roll Splash's properties change. For more information on the property changes on all of her special moves, read the appropriate special move. You can use Roll Power Up! more than once; however, you cannot power up Roll Power Up! with another Roll Power Up!. The only thing you're doing in that case is resetting the Roll Power Up!, and potentially leaving yourself open for attack.
*'''Roll Mop Up''' - ''Charge back (2) for 2 seconds, then press forward (6)+A/B/C'': Roll dashes across the screen with her broom. Each version travels its own distance, does a number of hits, and has its own damage output differences. The A version travels 2/3rds across the screen, does 5 hits, and does around 0,360 Billion Damage. The B version travels all the way across the screen, does 7 hits, and does around 0,950 Billion Damage. The C version travels all the way across the screen, does 9 hits, and does around 1,700 Billion Damage. The powered up version of Roll Mop Up travels the same distance as the normal version; however, the number of hits and damage output is different for each version. The A version does 8 hits, and does around 1,560 Billion Damage. The B version does 12 hits, and does around 2,780 Billion Damage. The C version does 16 hits, and does around 4,050 Billion Damage. Roll Mop Up special (both normal and powered up versions) is great to use either when the enemy is standing or is laying on the ground. You can cancel this special into her Roll Mop Up Turbo super for additional damage.
**During Roll Mop Up, ''press A/B/C rapidly'' to "'''fire scrub'''" the enemy: Roll takes her broom and literally scrubs the enemy with her broom so hard, that her broom fires up (while the powered up version catches the enemy in fire). Each version does its own number of hits and damage output. The A version does 11 hits and does around 3,680 Billion Damage. The B version does 15 hits and does around 4,200 Billion Damage. The C version does around 20 hits and does around 4,760 Billion Damage. The powered up version can go up to 36 hits and around 9,060 Billion Damage. This is a great special to use to either end your ground combo (or air combo if you time the j.C at the end when you land, you can do Roll Mop Up -> "fire scrub" follow up)
===Super Moves===
*'''Roll Mop Up Turbo''' - ''Charge back (2) for 2 seconds, then press forward (6)+Any two attack buttons'': Roll runs at the enemy with her broom, hitting their feet as she charges across the screen. She ends her super by hitting the enemy with her broom right in the enemy's face. This super does 16 hits and does around 17,350 Billion Damage. This is great to use at the end of either your ground or air combo (if you time the j.C at the end when you land, you can do Roll Mop Up Turbo). This super, just like her Roll Mop Up special move, can hit the enemy while the enemy is laying on the ground. However, the last hit (the broom smack in the face) will miss the enemy (i.e. whiff).
*'''Roll Down Time''' - ''214+Any two attack buttons'': An energy ball drops from the sky, landing on a kneeling Roll. If the energy ball hits Roll, she will regain some of her health back (with a cool effect of the old school Mega Man life bar popping up underneath Roll's life bar). If the enemy is hit by the energy ball, the enemy will be in a stagger state (and does no damage). The neat thing about this super is that if you do a Team Hyper Combo (and time this correctly), you can actually heal your partner! Play around and see what you can come up with.
*'''Oh. No. You. Didn't! (Level 3 Super)''' - ''623+Any two attack buttons'': Roll takes her broom, and scrubs the ground so hard that she starts a fire. If the enemy is hit by this (either while the enemy is standing or when the enemy is in the air), the enemy will dance in pain (because the enemy's rear end is on fire); while the enemy is dancing around (on fire and in pain, of course), Roll takes out a huge bucket of water, dumps out the water, creating a huge wave. The super ends with the enemy being hit by the huge wave. This super can be used in both a ground and air combo (if timed correctly). You can use this super while the enemy is laying the ground; however, you will not get the super's animation. Instead, you will do only 8 hits, and around 7,100 Billion Damage.
===Assist Attack===
*'''Roll Splash B''' - The normal properties of her Assist is the same as the special. You can use her assist as part of your ground or air combo, or to even create mix-ups.


=The Basics=
{{TvCOverviewHeader
Roll is certainly a strange character, and while many will assume she's still a joke character, even after playing her for a bit, this is because Roll has many advantages that probably aren't immediately obvious to a new player, whereas pretty much all her faults are.
|header=Normal Moves
First and foremost to note is her biggest offensive strength: Roll is the undisputed crownless queen of non-megacrashable, on-the-ground damage. Her biggest defensive strength, in lieu of Servbot, is her relatively small hitbox, primarily when she's crouching, making her hard to hit. She also has one of the best projectiles in the game, which when powered up basically becomes a Unibeam.

However, if the super hits OTG, it is unsafe on hit, so make sure it either kills or you have something safe to DHC into. If you begin this super on top of one of Roll's puddles, the puddle is consumed, instantly granting Roll all 5 levels of her damage increase, a 50% damage increase for the rest of the match.

Introduction

Everyone rumored, no one believed.

The comeback we were all yearning for.

Roll, truly the last and greatest Ultimate All-Star of our time, finally emerges from her brother's shadow in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. Going from a virtually unplayable clone of Mega Man in Marvel vs. Capcom 2, so bad that even Servbot is more viable, Roll has been given her own original moveset based around her lethal housekeeping skills and her hi-tech broom.

Roll is a unique character in TvC. She's used mostly on anchor due to her strong assist and ability to control neutral with her notorious j.C. She can do situationally very high damage with 2 separate power up mechanics, but can have problems converting off of some hits. She is also the undisputed ruler of unburstable damage, with a number of OTG hits that can not be escaped.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Small body privilege
  • Relaunches from anywhere on the screen
  • Healing
  • Can pump out unburstable damage when needed
  • Good DHCs
  • Splash powerup gives her an insane damage boost
  • Assist is annoyingly good
  • Can wavedash her air dash
  • Normals are a little stubby
  • Can't convert off j.C normally like the rest of the cast
  • Despite her overhead being good her followup options are limited unless she gambles on baroque
  • Health isn't lowest but is down there

5 12 - - 640 Overhead A high-priority poke with the handle of Roll's broom. This cancels into itself and can combo into charged j.236A for a wall bounce and a combo when hit air-to-air. It can also be used as an instant overhead, where it combos into uncharged j.236A.

7 5 - - 1120 Overhead A downward-angled kick, relatively fast but mostly used for combo filler.

Properties Notes
11 8 - - 2240 Overhead A cornerstone of Roll's game. This move has very high priority with fast startup for a j.C and a massive disjointed hitbox. Since it knocks down air-to-air, you can usually convert some sort of OTG sweep off of it. It has relatively short hitstun for a j.C, making it difficult to combo off of normally. Roll players should get used to up-canceling it into j.A to reliably convert off of IAD j.C.

8/10/12 - - - 4400 Projectile Reflect The charged version of the broom swing functions similarly, but adds a wall bounce effect to the hit. This is useful for converting combos such as off of 6B or 2C.

29 - - - 1200(640) Projectile The same move as Roll's assist. Difficult to combo into or out of, not very useful as a neutral tool. However, sweeping up the puddles produced by this can give a damage boost.

29 - - - 6136 Projectile The powered-up version of Roll's splash attack goes full screen in a straight line, hitting enemies multiple times if it hits. Although neither are particularly useful, this feels worse than the uncharged version.

17/19/22 - - - 359(1516)/949(2151)/1722(3014) - Roll's signature move, she moves forward across the screen, hitting many times. Mostly used for its OTG properties. If you mash the button that you used to initiate the sweep, Roll will stop in place and sweep furiously at the ground. The numbers in parentheses show the mashed damage numbers. If the Mop Up travels over a puddle, it will consume it, granting Roll a 10% damage boost for the rest of the match, stacking up to 5 times for a total 50% (!) damage boost.

Properties Notes

1+6 - - - 15783 - The super version of Roll's signature Mop Up special. The Mop Up Turbo does a large amount of damage and has some unique properties. If it hits a standing opponent and the last hit connects in the corner, you can follow up with a 2nd Mop Up Turbo OTG, essentially linking the super into itself. However, if the super hits OTG, it is unsafe on hit, so make sure it either kills or you have something safe to DHC into. If you begin this super on top of one of Roll's puddles, the puddle is consumed, instantly granting Roll all 5 levels of her damage increase, a 50% damage increase for the rest of the match.

1+12 23 59 - 0 - Roll summons an orb, which descends from the top of the screen to her position. If it touches Roll or another robot, it heals them, but if it contacts a human character, it will stagger them, regardless of if they are a partner or not.

Properties Notes

3+3 - - - 16560 - Roll's level 3, she sweeps in front of her, making a small fire which is the hitbox of this attack. If the enemy is hit by this fire, they are ignited, staggering away, as Roll dumps a huge bucket of water on their head to put the fire out. This move can hit OTG, but will not trigger the cinematic, doing significantly less damage.
