Story

Kenuichio Harada, better known as Silver Samurai, is a mutant with the ability to create tachyon fields, and focus them onto anything. Generally he puts this on his sword, allowing it to cut through almost anything. He is a sometimes foe-sometimes friend of the X-Men, and Wolverine in particular.

In Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Silver Samurai is a very flexible character with a great projectile, good mixup, an instant overhead, and one of the best supers in the entire game. With just one meter, you can hard punish any bad assist call, and the super is 100% safe on block. Generally, Silver Samurai fits with any team. He loves having meter, and has two decent assists, though generally he needs an assist to do anything special. He also has the most supers of any character in the game, but most of them are not that useful.

Gameplay

Silver Samurai is a flexible fighter who can do a lot with very little. Even having just one bar is enough to get your opponent to rethink calling assists. He also has good health, and great chip damage.

Moves List

Normal Moves

Standing Normals

Light Punch
5LP //

A quick slash.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
4	5	3	20	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Chain, Special, Super	-	-	-
Very long recovery for a light attack. On the last active frame, the hitbox changes to the one in the second image, this takes 2 frames. (Note the thin, tiny hitboxes - this is a running theme with this character.)

Light Punch
5LP (delay), LP // (delay)

Another quick slash.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
4	2	4	18	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Chain, Special, Super	-	-	-
Very long recovery for a light attack. This attack does not come out on hit by mashing, you must intentionally delay your input. This will come out by pressing LP twice, even if the first hit whiffs. On the last active frame, the hitbox changes to the one in the second image, this takes 3 frames.

Medium Punch
5MP //

One slash.

Two slashes.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
5, 3	8	2, 2	34	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Special, Super	-	-	-
Mainly used as a move with more hitstun to confirm into his specials or supers.

Heavy Punch
5HP //

A big slash.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
10	11	2	45*	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Special, Super	-	-	-
A swing of his sword upward. The asterisk in the recovery field denotes that this move has a special property, it can be crouch cancelled to shorten the recovery to just 12 frames. On the last active frame, the hitbox changes to the one in the second image, this takes 1 frame.

Heavy Punch
5HP, 5HP// ,

A followup slash that knocks down.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
10	9	4	40	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Special, Super	-	-	-
A swing of his sword at the opponents feet. This knocks down on hit, but even though it looks like it hits low, it does not. Cannot be crouch cancelled, so recovery is static.

Light Kick
5LK //

A quick poke forward.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
4	4	4	16	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Chain, Special, Super	-	-	-
Very long recovery for a light attack. On the last active frame, the hitbox changes to the one in the second image, this takes 3 frames.

Medium Kick
5MK // ,

Another quick poke forward.

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
7	9	5	22	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Special, Super	-	-	-
Another quick stab, mainly used as combo filler. On the last active frame, the hitbox changes to the one in the second image, this takes 4 frames. This is actually so slow that LK > MK from long range isn't a combo, while it is a combo at close range.

Heavy Kick
5HK //

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
13	15	1	31	HL
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	Special, Super	-	-	-
One of the more bizarre moves in Silver Samurai's movekit, he leaps forward and attacks overhead with a stab (though it can be blocked low or high). This does put him airborne, but it can still be special and super cancelled, including before when the hitbox comes out.
