In Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Gambit is a tricky and wildly fun character with an emphasis on good spacing and zoning with his normals and his Kinetic Card and Trick Card specials. Gambit has decent mobility, with a good ground dash and specials that allow him to jump off of the wall for mixups. His card specials are pretty good at controlling space, Kinetic Card for ground control and Trick Card for air control. Gambit also a great team player. He has a fantastic assist in his (alpha) assist, acting as a pseudo-capture state and allowing for some conversions and setups that would otherwise be impossible. He also has a relatively safe DHC in his Cajun Explosion super, and a fantastic damage DHC with his Royal Flush super.

Gambit is a tricky and wildly fun character with an emphasis on good spacing and zoning with his normals and his Kinetic Card and Trick Card specials. He has high damage combo conversions on point with cards and supers, and his fast ground movement - combined with Cajun Strike - makes him tricky to pin down. He is also an excellent team player, with his α-assist being a projectile that causes a pseudo-capture state, letting some characters get conversions that would otherwise be totally impossible. If you like throwing cards, nice normals, and the best damn cape animation in the business, then try your luck with Gambit.
Gambit is not without flaws though. His universal mobility is a little lacking, with his air mobility being a notable weak point. His defense is also a little lacking, with no invincible move of any kind. Lastly, while he's decent, there are plenty of characters who do what he does, just better. Regardless, Gambit is one of the most memorable and flashy characters in Marvel 2, and certainly worth a shot. If you like throwing cards, nice normals, and the best damn cape animation in the business, then try your luck with Gambit.

Story

Remy LeBeau, known by his alias of Gambit, is a mutant from the X-Men comics by Marvel. A smooth talker and a well known thief, Gambit has the ability to charge objects with kinetic energy, causing them to explode. He is an anti-hero character, sometimes working with the X-Men and sometimes working against them.

Gameplay

Gambit is a tricky and wildly fun character with an emphasis on good spacing and zoning with his normals and his Kinetic Card and Trick Card specials. He has high damage combo conversions on point with cards and supers, and his fast ground movement - combined with Cajun Strike - makes him tricky to pin down. He is also an excellent team player, with his α-assist being a projectile that causes a pseudo-capture state, letting some characters get conversions that would otherwise be totally impossible. If you like throwing cards, nice normals, and the best damn cape animation in the business, then try your luck with Gambit.

"Don't mess with the Cajun!"

Gambit is a slippery character with an emphasis on zoning and playing with his throwing card specials. He generally does well in the middle slot, as he has a good assist with a strong safe DHC.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • High Damage: Gambit has excellent damage on point with the right connects, getting a couple of cards into his Royal Flush super can do outstanding damage for one bar.
  • Great Grounded Movement: Gambit's fast ground dash and Cajun Strike special allow him to zip across the screen to run away or approach.
  • Team Player: Gambit's α-assist is a fantastic assist that allows for wonderful synergies. He also has a safe DHC in his Cajun Explosion.
  • Inconsistent Combos: Gambit's combos, especially with cards, are a little tricky to land, and his Royal Flush super can do wildly different amounts of damage depending on where it connects on the opponent.
  • Meter Usage: Both supers are slow, and while one is a bit better for spamming, you still have to be careful as to when you decide to use it.
  • Weird Air Normals: Gambit has a very high launcher, and his air normals have some strange hitboxes, making air chains a little trickier than usual to do.
