The Timer
The Timer is the same thing that you know from practically every Fighting Game in existence. The Timer starts at 99 at the beginning of a Round and counts down to 00, although not in real time. Each tick of the Timer in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 lasts about 2 real seconds. Once the Timer reaches zero, whichever team has the most combined total of health left in all three Life Meters wins the game. If both characters have the exact same amount of Life left, the game is considered a draw and both players "lose." There is no sudden death, and the game ends for both players. Also, any Red Health is ignored when determining who has won.
