A helpful analysis of Taskmaster in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 was posted by Sumoslamman. This takes a closer look at his normals, specials and other attacks after careful inspection of his gameplay videos.First impession: While Taskmaster looks like he has a fairly linear playstyle, that may not be such a bad thing, especially for beginners. With sick normal range, a projectile counter, physical counter, a meaty launcher and a hard hitting hyper, I think we can expect some mean play from this masked marauder. To the training room!
Normals
This is where Taskmaster shines, or rather his sword does. The range on his normal sword-based attacks is simply staggering. If you watch Video 2 and pause at just the right frame around 2:20, just as Taskmaster tags in, you’ll notice his aerial sword slash reaches the middle of the screen! Not only that but it hits twice (Video 2 – 1:27)! Also, his low medium has sick range too and can lead into some disgusting launcher, and probable aerial Mighty Swing shenanigans (Video 1 – :23).
As always, you can find a full index of these pieces here on the EventHubs.com forums, in case you missed any or want to look over them again.
(Sumo is a pimp, plz do Arthur/Viewtiful Joe/Deadpool
....and Frank West. What do you mean he's not in the game? *Laughing Hysterically, turns into sobbing*)

My girlfriend threatens to break my dick off if I agree to the fact that I'm a pimp (but I am) so thanks for noticing bro. Hehe, we shall see who I do next but I can guarantee you Deadpool won't be it! Thanks for the read!
(Wow, it's cool - you can just be Sumo Slamman' then. But I kinda wonder what your gf will do if she finds out about that title o-0)
Taskmaster existed before Skeletor. If anything Skeletor looks like Taskmaster ;).
Here's another vote for a Deadpool analysis! If not then I'd be cool with a Trish or Wesker analysis.

Wesker analysis is already up on the site.
Taskmaster is my main!
