UMVC3/Vergil

Vergil

TBW

In a nutshell

Vergil, the brother of Dante in Devil May Cry, is a high-damage mixup character. Boasting some of the longest combos in the game, as well as the most powerful Hyper in the game, Vergil is a combo-crazy maniac when on the field. However, he must be played carefully, as many of his normal attacks are easily punished and his overall health is relatively low. Technical players will have a new friend in Vergil.
