Character Overview

Roll is Mega Man's little sister. She is a robot designed by Dr. Light, and was not designed for fighting.

First seen in the VS series in Marvel vs. Capcom as a secret character. Roll returns in this game and has often been called the worst character in the game, owning her own special lowly, "Roll Tier" in the Marvel tiers.

TO-DO: Add frame data, as well as missing sprites

Gameplay

Mega Man is a zoner with that has many different projectiles. His main strengths lies in his Buster shot.

Strengths	Weaknesses
Double Jump: She has a double jump, that's pretty cool. Small Body: She is tiny, so she is harder to combo.	Poor range: Her standard buttons are absolutely tiny, making it difficult to even hit other characters. Weak Damage: When she does get a hit, she can't convert into damage solo, even with meter. Zero Health: 137% damage modifier. Tied for the worst in the game, she cannot take hits.

Special Moves

Specials

Roll Buster
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
Does half the damage that Mega Man's Buster does even though it's a special motion. Makes Roll float upwards in the air, giving it extremely long recovery...

Weapon Activation
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
Activates weapon. Default weapon is Rockball.

Flowers
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
Throws a flower bouquet into the air and it slowly floats down.

Summon Rockball Power-Up
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
The Rockball drops in front of you. You can then kick it, and it will bounce around the screen for about 3 seconds or until it hits the opponent. Rockball is very useful both to help stop rushdown and to set up better trapping/zoning.

Summon Leaf Shield Power-Up
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
The Leaf Shield forms around you and serves as one-hit full armor. You can then fire it straight-forward (in the air as well) using QCB+P (weapon activation), and can do up to 6 non-chipping hits. The Leaf Shield goes away after about 5 seconds even if not fired.

Summon Tornado Hold Power-Up
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
The Tornado Hold OTGs. It does no damage if blocked. It can cancel some projectiles. LP does a close range Tornado, the FP does it farther away. The spacing is obviously very important.

Hyper Combos

Hyper Roll
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
Hyper Roll is pretty much her only useful super, but it's simply a nerfed non-chipping version of Hyper Mega Man.

Beat Plane
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
Roll's Beat Plane cannot be started from the air - it is ground only, for no good reason. You can use the Plane for limited extra mobility at crucial points, but it's generally useless as anything other than chip. Ending it by moving to the far side of the screen as close to the ground as possible is usually the safest. You can counter an anticipated guard cancelled punishment by putting spaces between the bullets. You can be hit out of the Beat Plane by almost any move, and it does not have invulernable start-up. Sentinel can fly above the Beat Plane and you will not be able to reach him. Mash kicks for bombs, punches for bullets, can move plane in any direction.

Rush Drill
+

Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard
-	-	-	-	-
Special Property	Cancel	Adv. Hit	Adv. Guard	Adv. Pushblock
-	-	-	-	-
Mash to drill faster, can move forward/backward or jump. The drill is invincible once started. It also has very bad start-up and recovery.
