Spencer Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Moves, Combos, Strategy Guide

I'm willing to bet his armor piercer will be his best assist, if it's the same as his actual armor piercer it will get you a wall bounce, setting up a free hyper combo. And if anyone knows the control scheme for the direction he shoots his wire would you please put it here in the comments? Thanks.

Of all the chars we've seen so far... Spencer looks the worst. Obviously we need hands on for awhile to make that an accurate statement... but he just seems to be missing something.

@thawk

How in the world does he look the worst? In the few videos he's been shown he's held his own, he's even dominated in one. I'm guessing you haven't seen much by him... :|

#3 I think he will be one of those technical characters that are really hard to play. He won't be ncecessarily weak but if you don't know how to utilize his arm it will be difficult to play him strong. I'd say he's an expert character.

He just does'nt look easy to pick up and play.

Spencer is lame. Waste. He had potential...capcom did not deliver.

Oh man, Spencer is my favourite videogame character EVER. I'm gonna main him SOOOOOO BADLY.

But is kinda dissapointing that he has just 2 Hypers... it would be great if he had a third Hyper... Maybe he has and it wasn't shown :D (I HOPE SO)
Anyways, i'm gonna kick asses playing as him >:D

BIONIC AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARM!!

@#5

I wish I had a dollar for every time someone said one of the only decent capcom characters was a waste.

Screw the haters, this dude is gonna be my main :P and it's nice to finally see his controls specified :)

I blame Spencer for taking Frank Wests' slot.

THawk said on February 7, 2011 at 10:42 a.m.

lol now Frank would have been a wasted spot. Capcom at least got that right.

I'm okay with Spencer but i would have preferred the old school Bionic Commando though

xShonuffx said on February 11, 2011 at 3:53 a.m.

My biggest problem is that he only has 2 Hypers. Whats up with that? Not even a Level 3?

ON GROUND

Light attack is straight forward
Medium is diagonal up
Heavy is straight up

iN AIR

Light is straight forward
Medium is diagonal down
Heavy is straight down

And trust me, he doesn't need three hypers. He's that good!

Gotta understand that spencer here deals a ton of damage fast! Light - Medium - Hard - C.Hard xx Armor Piercer (wall bounce) to Bionic Lancer and OTG with air Medium Wire Grapple is already a good 70% for half the cast!

I enjoy playing as Spencer and it's a bonus that he is my favorite Capcom character.
As far as MvC3 I think he has alot of potential especial if you can move around the screen well using S+L. He has decent vitality, and pretty good strength. I find that he has alot of potential when using wire action airborne. His Bionic Lancer seems to be his more reliable Hyper Combo a as well as being Easier to utilize in a combo or when worked into a Team Hyper Combo. As far as normal strings; he proves weak.

JaazzRap said on November 16, 2012 at 10:15 a.m.

My favorite character in the game, Spencer is so epic!!!!!!!!!!

JiCi said on January 11, 2013 at 7:31 a.m.

Wow, lackluster much?

How come he doesn't have a special attack where he just shoot his hand out like a projectile? and how come he has no firearms either?
