This warrior values strength over all else, going so far as to abandon his own humanity as a means to obtain more. It is thought that the Buddhist beads around his neck represent warriors who have fallen before him.

Akuma

Akumaface.jpg

In a nutshell
Akuma has appeared in every "versus" game (you could play Ryu in Akuma mode in MvC1), but in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 he gets some extra juice. Akuma has one of the fastest beams in the game, and a versatile set of moves that allow him to put together some flashy combos. He has a few unorthodox angles of attack that may surprise opponents, but his average speed and poor range on most of his normal attacks limit his capabilities. You will need to plan your attacks carefully to make this low health, high damage character work. His level 3, the Shun Goku Satsu, is the most damaging Level 3 hyper in the game. He also has one of only two high hitting assists in the entire game.

Strategy

Tips and Tricks

  • Throws are an important part of Akuma's game. Off of any throw, front or back, air or ground, you can instantly do an air Charged Messatsu Gouhado with {{#motion: d df f uf + atk + atk}}. This will OTG for big damage.
  • Akuma's teleport is extremely useful, especially when combined with assists that hit repeatedly as he passes through you and changes sides.
  • Akuma's overhead Chop can be special cancelled, which means you can score a launcher with the {{#motion: s}} button into huge damage.
