Opinion: Top 10 Marvel characters that need to be in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite

5. Vision

The holder of the mind gem, Vision is the most powerful Avenger there currently is. The only one able of lifting Thor's hammer, Vision also has the ability to shapeshift himself and phase through objects. This could make teleporting quite easy, and the mind gem could shoot a giant beam as a super. Add all of this to super strength, super speed and the ability to fly, and Vision could be the best all-around character in the game.
4. Black Bolt
The leader of The Inhumans, Black Bolt, fought Thanos and just barely lost. He has the ability to unleash a supersonic scream that can destroy entire planets. His full name Blackagar Boltagon, he can also fly, create force fields and has a super punch that leaves him very briefly incapacitated. With the Inhumans getting their own TV series and IMAX theater film in addition to the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show, Black Bolt would make a great addition.

3. Adam Warlock

Warlock is the holder of the soul gem in the Marvel comics and the primary hero who defeated Thanos and the Infinity gauntlet. He's been teased in the films multiple times with his cocoon appearing in Guardians of the Galaxy. Writings on the white board of the psychiatric hospital in Thor The Dark World had references to Earth 616, the comic series about Adam Warlock himself. With no known holder of the soul gem currently in the MCU and only rumors, Adam Warlock could not only make an appearance in Infinity War (which is likely) but is also the most powerful good guy in the MCU.

2. Loki

Not too many Marvel villains stand out, but Loki is a perfect choice. He can create multiple images of himself, blast energy beams from his staff. He uses deception really over a lot of combat, but that opens up a lot of possibilities for various attacks. His ability to change costumes and appearances could play into it as well, opening up the option to use the powers of whatever he transforms into it.

1. Green Goblin

I know Spider-Man is getting a new film with new villains, but the Green Goblin is perhaps the most famous Spider-Man villain of all. The options he has are endless with the ability to fly on his platform. His pumpkin ball bombs would be great as you could have some explode while others act as a force field to hold enemies in place for juggle combos. Using them in the air would be great and make Goblin an incredibly versatile character
As noted above, there are a number of other characters from Marvel you could include, but we gave preference to those making their debut in the series. Villains like Doctor Octopus were considered as well as good guys like The Punisher and Black Widow, but we felt it best to vary up the competition as best as possible.
Let us know which ones you think should be in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite below and what your favorite are. Remember to read our Top 10 Capcom characters as well!

With Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite focusing on the expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe and television series, it seemed appropriate to take a look at some of the characters that Capcom could choose for the game. These 10 Marvel characters need to be in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite  and they are listed iin no particular order.

Of course, there are going to be more than 10 that can fit, so if we missed your favorite be sure to let us know at the end.

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will release on PS4, Xbox One and PC in 2017.

10. Daredevil

With the expansion of Netflix's Marvel franchise into the Defenders, Daredevil is a perfect choice for MvC: Infinite. His fighting prowess as well as ability to use different weapons make him a great pick as a debut character. Daredevil can absolutely handle himself as we've seen, and he would most likely be one of the best combo characters in the game. Who knows, maybe he can even summon Stick for a helper move from the corner.

9. Black Panther

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is going to have a huge impact on MvC: Infinite. With many classic characters already in the game, Black Panther would be amazing. The ability to use his Vibranium suit with martial arts skills and claws would surely be fun to watch. With X-men characters being removed from the game, Black Panther could become a more advanced Wolverine in MvC: Infinite

8. Iron Fist

If Daredevil is in it, we have to have the immortal Iron Fist. His martial arts skills aren't the only reason Iron Fist should be in the game, but also his ability to summon a dragon aura across the entire screen screams for him to be included in the game. Whether it's a giant dragon or multiple dragons surrounding him in a combo, Danny Rand would be a perfect fit for the game.

7. Ant-Man

The ability to both shrink and grow in size just makes Scott Lang a necessary addition to MvC: Infinite. Imagine the combos and super moves he could pull off. Giant man smashing Ryu into the ground or Ant-Man getting into someone's outfit before growing back to normal size. A character of a lot of ability, Ant-Man making his debut in the game would make for some great team-ups with other characters. He could even summon the Wasp to help out as a team-up move.

6. Blade

The daywalker making his debut in MvC: Infinite would be awesome. With rumors of a Netflix series on the way, along with three great Wesley Snipes films, Blade has a huge amount of potential for the game. Whether it's fighting hand to hand, swords, or even summoning some undead creatures to help him, Blade would be able to walk through pretty much any character in the game. Who knows, maybe we can get Wesley to voice the character as well.
