== Story ==
== Introduction ==
Robert "Bobby" Drake, known by his hero alias Iceman, is a character from the X-Men series by Marvel. A mutant with the ability to lower his internal body temperature to absolute zero nearly instantly, Iceman can freeze both himself and the air around him, as well as manipulate water.
Piotr Rasputin, better known by his alias of Colossus, is a character from the X-Men series by Marvel. A Russian mutant with the ability to turn his body into metal which grants him superhuman strength and endurance, Colossus fights alongside the X-Men as a gentle giant with the metaphorical "big stick" to back it up.


In Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Iceman is an accessible, simple, yet agile keepaway and zoning character who heavily leans on his solid normals and his Ice Beam special move for chipping and zoning. His normals are solid, with good range and speed. His main game is chipping while controlling the screen, as many of his specials do great damage even on block. An interesting thing to note about Iceman is that he takes zero chip damage from any energy based attacks, which does allow him to avoid many chip kill scenarios from some characters in the game. He's no slouch on hit though, as he can do great amounts of damage with a simple air combo into his super.
In Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Colossus is a character that embodies a few simple concepts: big, slow, and hard-hitting. His normals are excellent and many of them have fantastic range for their speed. Much of the match will be spent abusing these large normals, combined with his simple special moves, Giant Swing, a hitgrab that can be snuck in at the end of blockstrings, and Power Tackle, a projectile armored rush attack that does a hearty chunk of Soviet approved damage. His supers are simple but effective. Super Dive is a strange two hitting super that requires some setup, while Super Armor grants Colossus unlimited hyper armor for a few seconds, allowing him to truck through literally anything.


Unfortunately, Iceman is held back by the same thing that makes him so accessible in the first place. He doesn't have a lot of "ace in the hole" type setups or moves, which relegates him to a very predictable playstyle. In addition, with his movement being so poor, he doesn't have a great way to chase turtles or get away from rushdown. His specials and super (no "s", he only has one) are very simple, which again makes him a bit less flexible than most.
The problem with Colossus is the same problem that haunts the big bodies of this game, they're easy to mixup due to their large hurtboxes, and they're pretty limited movement-wise. Colossus does make up for this somewhat with his great assist and truly eye-watering damage, but there's a reason he sits in the upper mid-tiers on most lists. Regardless, Colossus is a pretty simple character that makes great use of his toolkit to bully the opponent. If you're looking for a simple, hard-hitting character that wants to control the screen and then kill an opponent in one combo, then Colossus is your comrade.


Still, Iceman is a good and easy character to pick up and play, with just enough tech to keep you interested. If you want to control the screen and play a long, slow game, then chill out with Iceman.

{{Content Box|content='''Iceman''' is a zoning and keepaway character who can use his large normals and great specials to chip the opponent down from afar. His main strengths are great normals and solid special moves but his weaknesses are his simplicity and no real way to change his playstyle.

*'''Simple:''' Iceman is a very easy character to pick up and play, and has a streamlined toolkit for easy understanding.
* Is in MvC2
*'''Zoning:''' Iceman is more than capable of zoning out characters due to his large normals and great specials.
*'''Solo Damage:''' Iceman can do great damage with an air combo into his super, off a hit or his punch throw.
*'''No Chip on Energy Attacks:''' Hadokens, beams, and Hyper Vipers do nothing to Iceman on block, as he takes no chip damage from any energy based attacks.

*'''Simple:''' Simplicity is both helpful and hurtful, as it makes you more predictable.
* Is in MvC2
*'''Poor Air Mobility:''' Iceman doesn't have a lot of ways to alter his momentum in the air.
*'''Lack of Mixup:''' Outside of low/throw, Iceman has very little in the way of opening his opponent up.

  |description= Iceman's Projectile assist is his most popular assist choice, and for good reason. Ice Beam is already an excellent special move in a lot of regards, and having it as an assist only makes it better because now he's not even as open when he does it! Really solid choice that any character would like to have.

  |description= Iceman's Variety assist is a little more niche compared to his Projectile and Balance assists. It has some pretty long startup, and not a whole lot of blockstun. It COULD be used like an additional hit to stop people from jumping away from your point character, but that's not as common of a situation as full screen chip and space control. Worth a shot, but don't feel bad if you can't get it to work with your team.

  |description= Iceman's Balance assist might be a bit worse than Projectile simply because of just how long the startup of LK Avalanche is as a Variable Counter. You want something fast or big to get someone off of you, preferably both, and it has neither. Most people stick with Projectile for the added utility of the Variable Counter.

  |description= Iceman shoots a beam of frigid energy from his hands. Quite literally half your gameplan is this move. This special move is one of Iceman's key moves in gameplay, and many of his great pokes can be cancelled into this for even further screen coverage. Air versions will make you pause briefly in midair, giving some stall potential. Multihit makes it break armor, decent damage, and GREAT chip damage, this is a move you're going to want to do a LOT.

  |description= Iceman summons a massive chunk of ice, then drops it onto the opponent. The LK version drops the chunk straight down, while HK puts it at a downward angle away from Iceman. Does a good chunk of damage as any boulder should and has a big hitbox, but the recovery can be a little long so this one sees just a bit less use. Still nice for screen control, but use more sparingly than Ice Beam.

|description= Iceman freezes a chunk of ice to his hand. This is a powerup special. After this special is completed, the next three punch normals that Iceman lands will do 33% more damage. This has an unlimited time limit, and the buff does not go away when you whiff. It does decrease by one hit when your attack is blocked, however. You have full access to your toolkit while this is active, so if you have a bit of downtime, or your opponent is turtling up, there's no good reason to not be doing this for a free damage buff.

This can do really good damage when mashed fully, and can set up for DHCs with it's drag down property in the air. However, if you're looking for solo damage, a neat trick is to kara cancel Ice Beam into Arctic Attack, which will freeze you in place as you do the super, leading to much higher damage. Doesn't do as much chip as you'd like sometimes, but it's still a good one to have!

Introduction

Piotr Rasputin, better known by his alias of Colossus, is a character from the X-Men series by Marvel. A Russian mutant with the ability to turn his body into metal which grants him superhuman strength and endurance, Colossus fights alongside the X-Men as a gentle giant with the metaphorical "big stick" to back it up.

In Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Colossus is a character that embodies a few simple concepts: big, slow, and hard-hitting. His normals are excellent and many of them have fantastic range for their speed. Much of the match will be spent abusing these large normals, combined with his simple special moves, Giant Swing, a hitgrab that can be snuck in at the end of blockstrings, and Power Tackle, a projectile armored rush attack that does a hearty chunk of Soviet approved damage. His supers are simple but effective. Super Dive is a strange two hitting super that requires some setup, while Super Armor grants Colossus unlimited hyper armor for a few seconds, allowing him to truck through literally anything.

The problem with Colossus is the same problem that haunts the big bodies of this game, they're easy to mixup due to their large hurtboxes, and they're pretty limited movement-wise. Colossus does make up for this somewhat with his great assist and truly eye-watering damage, but there's a reason he sits in the upper mid-tiers on most lists. Regardless, Colossus is a pretty simple character that makes great use of his toolkit to bully the opponent. If you're looking for a simple, hard-hitting character that wants to control the screen and then kill an opponent in one combo, then Colossus is your comrade.
