Marvel Super Heroes/Blackheart

Introduction

In the comics, Blackheart is son of the demon Lord Mephisto. He's clashed with such heroes as Daredevil, Ghost Rider, and Spider-Man.

In the game, Blackheart is a character with tools best suited to zoning. His HP and HK attacks cover a lot of screen space and his Inferno move covers the height of the screen.

Moves List

Dash

• forward,forward or back,back

Blackheart's ground dash is special in that he travels through the ground during it, which can avoid some attacks.
If he is standing next to his opponent, he will end up on the other side of them when the dash ends.
You may also press 3 Punches + the desired direction instead of double tapping a direction to initiate the dash.

Air Dash

• while airborne, forward,forward or back,back

Blackheart can air dash forwards or backwards. You may also press 3 Punches + the desired direction instead of double tapping a direction to initiate the air dash.
Doing either HP or HK in the air forfeits your ability to airdash.

Throw

• forward + MP/MK or HP/HK

Normal Moves
