Colossus moves and strategies: Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Last updated on Aug. 3, 2009
Special Moves
(Rotate 360) (Can also be done in the air)
• Giant Swing •
Colossus dashes forward his hand out, if he catches the other player he'll begin to spin them around. If you rotate the joystick 360 degrees multiple times, you'll increase the damage of this move.
The Hard Punch Giant Swing has slightly more range than the Light attack. This move can be blocked.
(Can also be done in the air)
• Power Tackle •
Makes you dash forward and if you land this attack it will knock your enemy back a ways. This blows through some projectiles and is wicked easy to combo into.
The Light Kick Power Tackle travels straight across the screen, regardless if you do it in the air or not.
A Hard Kick Power Tackle on the ground travels diagonally up-towards, which works as anti air. While jumping, it flies diagonally down-towards, and it will even slide along the ground for a short distance.
Hyper (Super) Moves
or
(To do an early dive)
• Super Dive •
Colossus jumps up into the air and does a head dive at his enemy. If you don't press down + an attack button to make him dive faster, this attack won't connect unless the other fighter is around full-screen's distance.
• Super Armor •
Most attacks will not stagger Colossus when he has Super Armor, which lasts for about 10 seconds.
This allows him to rush down his opponent, and even if they try to sweep him or do most attacks, he can simply walk through them or suffer very little push back for being hit, but he still takes damage while this is active.
Command Normals
(In the air)
• Slide Body Press •

Giant Swing = coolest super move ever
Not too good, though

His super is good if you know how to do it you can deal massive damage.

Roundhouse launcher,and air combo: Jab,Short,Jab,Short-Power Tackle->Super Dive. 98 damage against Cable. Be sure to hold down and drum any attack button to pull off the quick dive as early as possible. In the corner, you can pull off four attacks during the air combo and follow up with the power tackle -> Super Dive which will connect going up and down for 128 damage against Cable. It's worth a shot against a blocked/missed switch out character. This combo is only good against cable, cyclops, cpt commando sized characters though...

Collosus' Hyper Moves are actually pretty useful as surprise attacks.

I like to use Colossus when I see people go for the lame OTG combos (primarily most Jill and Guile players you'll find online). His super armor will frustrate the hell out of them. Back him up with a Sentinel or Doom assist for extra frustration. =)
