| ==Introduction==
| |
| Alex from ''Street Fighter III'' comes to ''Tatsunoko vs Capcom'' with a not-so-great rendition of Jazzy NYC. He’s the same grappler you expect, and notably, the only small character with a snapback. Lacking projectiles and a double jump, Alex may struggle in certain matchups, but once he gets going, he can wipe out entire characters with ease.

| * The only non-giant character with a snapback.
| | | {{TvC-Colors|blue|Light Attack (A):}} |
| * Insane damage output, especially when boosted by Baroque—can wipe out most characters with just 20% Baroque.
| | || {{TvC-Colors|blue|Blue}} |
| * Benefits greatly from the VAR system, receiving both damage and meter boosts, plus a height damage boost.
| | |- |
| * Decent anti-air options.
| | | {{TvC-Colors|yellow|Medium Attack (B):}} |
| * Standing overhead that leads into multiple combo routes.
| | || {{TvC-Colors|yellow|Yellow}} |
| * Excellent giant killer.

| * Struggles against zoning despite the ability to nullify fireballs.
| | || Inputs |
| * Has only one super that is truly worthwhile.
| | || Notes |
| * Limited ways to close the gap—opponents can often interrupt or stop his approach. Strong fundamentals and meter management are crucial.
