Overview Combos Strategy/Counterstrategy Resources Data

Introduction

Johnny Blaze was a stunt motorcyclist who forfeited his soul in a deal with demons from the underworld. As Ghost Rider, he channels the powers of Zarathos to spew hellfire and fly around on his cool motorcycle.

In UMvC3, Ghost Rider is a keepaway-focused character. Rather than relying heavily on projectiles like most other zoning characters, Ghost Rider zones out opponents with the incredible range on most of his H and S attacks. Although he is very immobile, Ghost Rider can force enemies to come to him (literally, using 214L), and can convert stray hits from long-range pokes into big damage.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Long ranged heavy normals and jumping S allows Ghost Rider to pester his opponents at almost full screen length and convert into full combos.
Easily the best snapback in the game, with 2 frame startup and reaching about 3/4 screen distance. Raw DHC's used to get another character out can often be punished by Ghost Rider to get that character back on the field for one less meter used than his opponent.
Although he favors that point position very much, Ghost Rider offers good support value. Chain of Rebuttal causes a wallbounce, allowing pick ups from anywhere on screen (including as a crossover counter where it's notably stupid), Hellfire and Heartless Spire are good OTG options for characters who need it, and Spirit of Vengeance is a fast travelling, hyper armor induced, OTG hitting freight train, making it a viable DHC option for getting out of precarious situations or long ranged pick ups.
Ghost Rider benefits more than anyone from smart pushblocking. Pushing your opponents away with good timing and then interrupting them from half the screen away into a full combo is a luxury only he posseses.
Surprisingly, he can handle many popular top tier match-ups fairly well. Characters like Wolverine and Nova can struggle to get in against him immensely, Doom has very few counters to effective zoning, and even Vergil can have trouble getting started thanks to Ghost Rider's amazing snapback.

Incredibly limited movement options. He has no air dash, no air specials for stalling, no unique movement options, etc. He's heavily reliant on his normal dash, which is very mediocre.
Because of his long ranged and slow normals, Ghost Rider can struggle mixing his opponents up from up close. His incoming mix is limited to simple cross ups with 5M and 2M and screen tears with 623+M.
Because his primary keepaway tools are physical hits and not projectiles, Ghost Rider ironically struggles against other keepaway characters running a more fireball-focused gameplan.
Possibly the lowest damage output out of the whole roster. You'll be lucky if you kill an 800K health character from a single touch. Most of his combos end in resets, which Ghost Rider does have the tools to use competently, but two touch characters do not thrive in a one touch game. He absolutely needs a damage engine behind him for strong DHCs.
Limited defensive options thanks to slow normals and Spirit of Vengeance having slow start up. If overwhelmed, it's not uncommon to spend X-Factor to guard cancel and dump 3 meters into Penance Stare (41236XX).

Move List

Assists

Chain Rebuttal
Assist A

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
50,000 x3	39	7	120, 90
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-	-	Mid
THC Hyper: Hellfire Maelstrom. Chain Rebuttal is a horizontal coverage assist with decent range. It has faster startup than many common beam assists, and can be used as a counter-call to punish assists such as Plasma Beam or Sentinel Force. As a Wallbounce assist, it has useful application as a combo extension tool, and can also be used to more reliably convert instant overheads or other awkward hits.

Heartless Spire
Assist B

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
35,000 x3	39	32	117, 87
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-	-	Mid	, , Priority: Low, Beam Durability: 5 per frame for 3 frames
THC Hyper: Hellfire Maelstrom. Creates a stationary beam projectile that can be used defensively to negate incoming projectiles from the opponent, as it has a pretty significant amount of total durability. Although it hits OTG, Spire tends to knock opponents quite high into the air, which makes it harder to use for combos than his Y assist, Hellfire.

Hellfire (L)
Assist Y

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
20,000 x10	44	28	109, 79
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-	-	Mid	, Priority: Low, Beam Durability: 5 per frame for 10 frames
THC Hyper: Hellfire Maelstrom. Standard OTG assist for relaunches comparable to Wesker's Samurai Edge or Deadpool's Katana-Rama. Causes a significant amount of total hitstun or blockstun, but scales combos heavily due to its high hit count.

Ground Normals

Stand Light
5L

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
55,000	7	3	12
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+1	-1	Mid	-
Unremarkable jab. It is a little slower than most other character's 5L attacks, so Ghost Rider struggles in up-close scramble situations.

Stand Medium
5M

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
75,000	10	3	16
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+2	0	Mid	-
5M moves Ghost Rider a significant distance forward during its startup. Ghost Rider can kara-cancel this attack (or 2M) into specials or hypers in order to effectively extend their range. This is mainly useful for his Penance Stare level 3 command grab, but could also be used to hit characters who are standing just out of range of Chain of Rebuttal (623L), for example. Note that due to Ghost Rider's magic series type, he cannot chain this attack into H normals, and most go directly into a launcher or special attack.

Stand Heavy
5H

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
90,000	15	4	27
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-5	-7	Mid	-
5H is a massive range poke and general keepaway tool, which covers up to 75% of the way across the screen. Although it is slightly minus on hit or block, 5H has several cancel options that are significantly more advantageous, including its dedicated Rage Whip followup (5H > H). Thus, 5H provides a lot of potential reward for low risk, and is a good option almost any time that both Ghost Rider and his opponent are on the ground. This attack can whiff inconsistently against certain characters during their reeling hitstun animation, especially smaller bodies like Zero and Wolverine.

Crouching Light
2L

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
45,000	7	3	13
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
0	-2	Low	-
Similar to Ghost Rider's 5L, 2L is a standard light normal that is noticeably slower than average.

Crouching Medium
2M

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
80,000	12	4	15
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+2	0	Mid	-
Advancing shoulder check attack. This move advances Ghost Rider forward during the startup, similar to 5M. In fact, this move actually travels even further than 5M, making it an excellent kara-cancel tool. Note that due to Ghost Rider's magic series type, he cannot chain this attack into H normals, and most go directly into a launcher or special attack.

Crouching Heavy
2H

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
80,000	17	4	28
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-	-8	Low	,
Long range poke attack comparable to 5H in range. It is a little slower and loses the Rage Whip follow-up in exchange for hitting :ow. Because Ghost Rider has access to both this move and his long-reaching overhead j.5S, he can run a moderately effective high/low game even at long range.

Launcher/Special
S

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
100,000	15	6	25
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
Launch	-7	Mid	,
As with Ghost Rider's other H and S attacks, 5S has exceptional range. It hits a significant distance ahead of him, as well as above him. Unfortunately, Ghost Rider's aerial options are very poor, so he gets significantly less reward off landing this than most characters would.

Aerial Normals

Jumping Light
j.5L

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
55,000	7	3	16
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+14	+12	OH	-
Is too slow and has too small of a hitbox to have any notable use.

Jumping Medium
j.5M

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
78,000	10	5	23
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+18	+16	OH	-
Can be used as a fuzzy-guard instant overhead against normal-sized characters, and works naturally as an instant overhead against big body characters. Also against large bodies, Ghost Rider can solo convert this instant overhead with j.5M > j.5S, land, 5L. Against normal-sized characters, the j.5S will whiff, and Ghost Rider needs assists or X-Factor to confirm this hit. Besides this use, j.5M is mostly air combo filler.

Jumping Heavy
j.5H

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
90,000	17	3	31
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+21	+19	OH	, except for TACs
Ghost Rider swings his chain, covering a large area in front of him, as well as above him. This is a solid air-to-air option, since opponents will often try to approach Ghost Rider from above. Unfortunately, j.5H does not chain into j.5S, and thus this move has no cancel options at all except for TACs. This move should be omitted from air combos and generally avoided, for this reason.

Jumping Special
j.5S

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
50,000 x3	15	10	36
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+21	+18	OH
One of Ghost Rider's best keepaway tools. A downward-angled chain attack with similar range and speed to 5H. Hits three times, each with a significant amount of hitstop, which makes confirming very easy. This move can be used at the start of a jump as a fairly fast overhead even from range, or used while falling in order to follow up with other attacks upon landing. j.5S has a blind spot immediately below Ghost Rider which normal-sized opponents can use to evade it.

Command Normals

Rage Whip
5H > H (on contact)

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
95,000	5	3	18
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+5	+3	Mid	-
Follow-up attack for Ghost Rider's 5H, which is significantly more advantageous on block. Pulls opponents slightly closer on contact, which can be useful to ensure that special moves such as 623L or 214L connect properly. In particular, 5H > H xx 623X is a relatively safe sequence that Ghost Rider can throw out to get a little free chip damage on block, or start a combo on hit.

Heartless Spire
4H

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
35,000 x3	15	32	25
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
+6	+4	Mid	, , Priority: Low, Beam Durability: 5 per frame for 3 frames
Creates an eruption in front of Ghost Rider, acting as a sort of defensive wall. Spire has enough durability to destroy most non-hyper projectiles that enter its range, and so it can be used to cover him against fireball pressure for a time. Hits OTG, but Ghost Rider needs assists in order to convert further.

Special Moves

Hellfire
236X

	On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
	-1	-3	Mid	Priority: Low, Beam Durability: 5 per frame for 10 frames
Ghost Rider spews flame from his mouth, creating a ball of flame directly in front of him. H version is angled upwards, M appears directly in front of him, and L is aimed down towards the ground. Deals pretty significant chip, but opponents can pushblock early to avoid the vast majority of it. Hellfire is primarily used for the OTG property on the L version, in order to end combos with a pickup into Hellfire Maelstrom.

Chain of Rebuttal
"Eat chain"
623L

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
50,000 x3	15	7	29
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-	-8	Mid
Important combo tool for Ghost Rider. Usually, you want to hitconfirm his keepaway normals into this special in order to start a combo. Ghost Rider can always pick up the Wallbounce from any screen position with 5H > H into another special move.

Chain of Punishment
"Eat chain"
623M

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
50,000 x3	15	7	29
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-	-8	Mid
Almost identical to 623L, except aimed diagonally upwards instead of straight ahead. This move is mainly useful if the opponent has already been knocked in the air by assist hits. As a raw anti-air, it is quite slow, and difficult to connect.

Judgement Strike
"Eat (lots of) chain"
623H

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
25,000 x10	25	-	30
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties
-5	-7	Mid	Priority: Low, Durability: 5 per projectile
Unlike the L and M versions, 623H fires a shotgun blast of projectiles which travel almost fullscreen before dissipating. This move does not combo from 5H > H like the other Chain specials, and in general has limited combo use. Instead, Judgement Strike is primarily a keepaway and chip damage tool.

	-	-22	Mid
Although not a throw, this move starts a throw-like animation on hit where both Ghost Rider and his opponent are invulnerable to outside effects. This can be utilized to evade assist attacks from the opponent if you manage to catch the point character. L version pulls the opponent immediately in front of Ghost Rider, where he can follow up with any of his OTG attacks. H version deals a significant amount of damage but ends with the opponent on the ground a significant distance away. However, Ghost Rider can still combo after 214H with Spirit of Vengeance (623XX).

Ghost Rider drives his motorcycle across the stage. Pressing L, M, H, S or no button causes different enders to this hyper, changing its recovery and properties. Ghost Rider can extend after this hyper when pairing the correct ender with certain assists. This move can not be X-Factor canceled while Ghost Rider is on the motorcycle, only after he hops off.

-	-	Throw	Invuln until frame 10,
Highly damaging command grab. It can also be used as a reversal due to its invulnerability and fast startup, or used to punish otherwise safe attacks as a X-Factor Guard Cancel. 5M or 2M can be kara-canceled into this hyper in order to extend its range. In particular, a dash > 5M > 63214XX sequence allows Ghost Rider to suddenly grab opponents from about 3/4s screen distance, making it a serious threat on the ground. This move leaves the opponent in a crumple state afterwards, allowing Ghost Rider a full combo afterwards. Despite being a command grab, this hyper does not apply throw scaling, so the following combo can hit for full damage.

Universal Mechanics

Ground Throw
6H, 4H

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery
80,000	1	1	-
On Hit	On Block	Guard	Properties

Team Position

Ghost Rider is usually picked as a Point character. As a zoning character, he is very reliant on assists to cover the holes in his defense, to convert off hits from range, and to extend his otherwise short combos. His effectiveness declines rapidly if he only has access to one or no assists. He also makes a very poor anchor, as although he can zone enemies out for a long time, he does not deal a threatening amount of chip, and has almost no mixup game.

Notable Synergies

Arthur: Despite being a keepaway character himself, Ghost Rider struggles against the projectiles of other zoning-heavy characters, since his chain won't clash with them. Arthur's assist represents a great way to deal with that problem. This is especially true if you can upgrade Arthur to Golden Armor, which improves the durability on his Dagger Toss assist.

Players to Watch: Sacktap (Ghost Rider/Arthur/Haggar)

Doctor Doom: As one would expect, Doom provides a lot of support potential with either Plasma Beam or Hidden Missiles assist. With Hidden Missiles, Ghost Rider can be covered from above, protecting the large deadzone in his keepaway game. He can also call it before a 623XX hyper and then continue to combo afterwards, an extension unique to this shell. With Plasma Beam, Ghost Rider can call Doom during many of his keepaway options, such as a retreating j.5S, and either keep pressure on block or convert into a combo on hit.

Players to Watch: IGT (Ghost Rider/Skrull/Doom)

Haggar: Haggar's Lariat is one of the few properly invincible assists in the game, and serves as an excellent "get off me" assist for someone like Ghost Rider, whose up-close attacks are very slow. Lariat can also be used to extend combos after OTG 4H, making it doubly useful. Additionally, while Ghost Rider's DHC options are usually quite poor, Spirit of Vengence > Giant Haggar Press connects in the corner for very big damage.

Players to Watch: Sacktap (Ghost Rider/Arthur/Haggar)

Other Players to Watch: JakoMan (Ghost Rider/Felicia/Nemesis)

Combos

Solo Combos

5H > H xx 623L, 5H > H xx 214L, 236L xx 236XX (623,000 damage for 1 bar, builds ~0.5 bar)

Basic solo confirm off 5H. Without assists or X-Factor support, this is close to the best he can do.

63214XX, reposition, 2H xx 623L, jump, j.5M > j.5M > j.5S, land, 5H > 5S sjc. j.5M > j.5M > j.5S, land, 236L xx 236XX(967,000 damage for 4 bars, builds ~0.5 bar)

Ghost Rider has a simple jump loop extension he can perform after a 623L near the corner, but getting the spacing correct for it to work can be tough. The crumple state caused by Penance Stare gives you time to set up the proper spacing.

X-Factor Combos

-

Sample Team Combos

5H > H xx 623L, 5H > H xx 214L, 4H+A (Haggar Assist - Lariat), 5H xx 214L, 236L xx 236XX (673,000 for 1 bar, builds about 0.8 bars of meter)

Ghost Rider can not solo pickup after OTG 4H, and many assists hit too low to connect properly here. Haggar's lariat assist hits high enough and juggles long enough for Ghost Rider to get this minor extension on his basic combo.

5H > H xx 623L, 5H > H xx 214H, Assist (Doom - Hidden Missiles) + 623XX > M, assist hits, 214L, 236L xx 236XX (796,000 for 2 bars, builds ~0.9 bars of meter)

Spirit of Vengeance hyper can be followed up afterwards using certain assists that hit late, with Hidden Missiles likely being the easiest. This allows Ghost Rider to double-super for a pretty significant increase in damage.

5H > H xx 623L, 5H > H (Call Assist - Sentinel Force) xx 214L, (assist hits twice), 623M (assist hits again), 214L, 236L xx 236XX (700,000 for 1 bar, builds ~0.9 bars of meter)

Alternate extension using another common assist. This only works properly close to the corner, otherwise the 623M will knock the opponent too far away to do anything useful.
