Marvel vs Capcom 2/Dan

Introduction

MvC2 is an interesting game for Dan, as he isn't the worst character in the game, despite his joke status. That being said, he's still not very good. If you want to play Dan to any serious effect, you need to learn to use his Dankūkyaku.

Colors

First row: LP, HP, A1. Second row: LK, HK, A2.

Gadouken

Not bad, can be used up close.

Can be used as a "get off me". Close range, and with the possibility of complete invincibility. Dan's best assist.

Easily his worst assist. High start up and recovery, low damage. Don't use.

Extras

Hidden Intro

Hold down LP before the match starts, and instead of the usual intro animation, Dan will fall to the ground and lose his sandals. This is carried over from MSHvSF, without the explosion.

Taunt Super Finish Screen

If you kill them with Premium (either on point or with Dan as an assist), you will get a Super Finish screen.
