Marvel VS Capcom: Infinite/Thanos

Thanos

One of the most iconic Marvel villains from both film and comics alike, Thanos is a godlike being boasting a vast array of abilities; telekinesis, teleportation, energy projection, as well as superhuman strength and intelligence, and even an inability to die of hunger or old age. While this all makes Thanos a potent foe for the various comic heroes he clashes with, he is perhaps most famous for the storylines where he seeks the powerful cosmic artifact known as the Infinity Gauntlet, leading to him wiping out half of all life in the universe in an attempt to bring balance to it once he gets his hands on the Infinity Stones that power the Infinity Gauntlet.
In a nutshell
The Mad Titan is a heavy-hitting character with projectiles, armored overheads, a projectile counter, air dashes and a teleport; a shockingly versatile toolkit for an archetype so usually built around limitations. Thanos can keep opponents guessing with his offense, and create mix ups with a tracking teleport that not even characters at super jump height can avoid. He also does heavy damage and is a great character to pair with anyone who struggles in that category. His projectile counter is also a strong way to stop zoners, with a huge hitbox that hits nearly full screen. Pick Thanos if you want a character who'll live long, hit hard, and can still manuever around the screen and open opponents up.

Unique Trait

Hand of a God: Thanos has a wide array of attacks, but his strength is derived primarily from his punch command normals, which allow him to extend his combos past their limit and grant huge damage. Many of his advanced combos will take advantage of these attacks, some of which have deceptively long range.
