Marvel VS Capcom: Infinite/X

X

The long-awaited Maverick Hunter is here! Vs. series veteran and Mega Man X deuteragonist Zero may have gotten here first, but X is nonetheless ready to prove he's just as capable. Hailing from the futuristic era of 21XX, X is the creation of brilliant roboticist Dr. Light and the first robot in the world of Mega Man that can think for himself, and defends the world from evil robots known as Mavericks that have gone haywire. Much like his older brother, X gains new weapons from each Maverick he defeats, and is ready to bring his varied arsenal to bear in Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite.

In a nutshell
X is a character that relies on his projectiles to keep the opponent at bay and create opportunities to cover his partners tag-in. His Mega Buster can be charged for a strong projectile that cannot be reflected and has additional follow ups, including a far reaching overhead attack. He also has the ability to chain his special attacks together twice in succession making it difficult for the opponent to approach him. If that's not enough, X can power himself up with the ever strong Armor of Light which grants X more powerful versions of his attacks. Pick X if you like a character who holds their own as a zoner and supports your team through heavy projectile use.

Unique Trait

Maverick Weapon Rekka: X has the ability to chain Maverick weapon specials twice in succession to create unique zoning patterns. The second weapon fired, colloquially referred to as an "EX" version, will be a stronger version of that weapon.

Normals

Standing Light Punch	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	300	Mid	5	2	11	-2	-1
	X's shortest-ranged grounded normal. Can chain into itself and crouching light punch.

Standing Heavy Punch	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	Mid	9	5	26	-5	-10
	X takes a small step forward when using this move.

Standing Light Kick	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	500	Mid	8	4	19	1	-4
	Has noticeably more reach than standing light punch and standing heavy punch. X takes a small step forward when using this move.

Standing Heavy Kick	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	Mid	14	4	21	0	-5
	Has noticeably more reach than standing heavy punch. X takes a large step forward when using this move.

Crouching Light Punch	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	300	Mid	6	3	9	0	-1
	Can chain into itself and standing light punch. Has somewhat more reach than crouching light punch.

Crouching Heavy Punch	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	Mid	10	8	23	22	-10	Launch
	X's launcher. X takes a large step forward when using this move.

Crouching Light Kick	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	500	Low	7	3	26	-5	-10
	X's fastest low. Has noticeably more reach than crouching light punch, but can't chain into itself like the light punches can.

Crouching Heavy Kick	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	Low	14	4	21	43	-16	Hard Knockdown
	X's sweep. X takes a large step forward when using this move. This is X's longest-reaching grounded normal, and an important part of his combo game, as the combo possibilities on airborne opponents are quite different from grounded ones, so for certain Maverick Weapon combos, you'll want to be juggling your opponent rather than hitting them on the ground.

Jumping Light Punch j.	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	300	High	5	8	7	-	-
	X's fastest air normal, but also the one with the poorest reach.

Jumping Heavy Punch j.	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	High	9	8	21	-	-
	Is somewhat faster than j.HK, and has very slightly more horizontal reach, but moderately worse vertical reach.

Jumping Light Kick j.	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	500	High	8	3	26	-	-
	This normal's combination of speed and angle makes it a suitable air-to-air attack. It's also able to hit the tallest characters in the game crouching when done instantly from a short hop, creating instant overhead mix-ups.

Jumping Heavy Kick j.	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	High	12	4	25	-	-	Ground Bounce & Hard Knockdown (Air Combo only)
	This has the longest downward reach of any of X's air normals, making it perfect for using during air dash approaches vs. an opponent.

Command Normals

Buster Blow	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	Mid	8	4	28	-8	-13	Jump-Cancellable
	This move is jump-cancellable, leading to normal jump loops and other combos near ground level.

Shoulder Tackle	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	750	Mid	19	3	27	-6	-11	Wall Bounce (vs. airborne)
	A slow, solidly higher-damage normal to throw into grounded strings, as well as causing a wall bounce that can be used for certain corner combos.

Point Blank Buster j.	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	700	High	14	8	17	-	-
	Halts your aerial trajectory.

Misc

Throw or	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	1000	Throw	3	1	-
	Additional damage scales by 50%. Forward throw can be combo'd off of solo when your opponent is cornered by dashing up and using a light attack to OTG. Back throw can be combo'd off of solo when your back is in the corner, though the follow-ups are highly restrictive. Tagging makes comboing off of either of these easier, though the window off of back throw is still fairly tight.

Air Throw or	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	1000	Throw	3	1	-
	Additional damage scales by 50%. Neither can be combo'd off of solo, under any circumstances. Forward air throw can barely be combo'd off of with an immediate tag into a fast normal (the tag itself won't hit) in the corner. Back air throw, starting with your back to the corner, has a much more generous window to tag in and combo off of it, and this time the tag itself does connect.

Tag	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block	Properties
	500		6	8	44	+33	+28
	Hit/Block adv is dependent on when you your tag-in

Specials

	X's primary projectile special. The charged versions have multiple hits, and so cannot be reflected by advancing guard. The level 2 version knocks down, allowing a confirm into Full-Power Charged Shot, and the level 3 version sends them flying before knocking them down, allowing many follow-ups.
