    You all know what I mean. Sure, there are a lot of characters in MVC2, but much like in Street Fighter, I predict that one character or one team will be predominant online and mishandled by scrubs. My guesses?
    A: An all Shoto team of Ryu, Ken, and Akuma
    B. Cable. Why? He has a gun. And he's top tier.
    C: I imagine people will use a lot of Spiderman and Wolverine, but that seems fairly obvious.

    What are your predictions? We have until Wednesday to guess.

    Of course you do. But I'm talking about all those other Kens. You don't use the Shoryuken every 3 seconds.

    Everyone is probably going to use Storm, Sentinel, and Magneto.

    EDIT:   Shit, forgot to post this.

    There will be no "Kens." The majority of the people who are going to buy this game have already played the older version. So they will use whatever characters they used some time ago.

    Holy shit. That is perhaps the greatest piece of logic ever conceived on these forums. A high five to you sir.

    @JJOR64:

    They probably would, many of them not even realising that Psylocke is stronger lol.

    But yeah, it will probably be Ken, Ryu and either Cyclops (pew pew pew) or Wolverine (lol I luff Hugh JAckman loslolsolololol) or possibly Spiderman, Venom, someone stupidly well recognised like that.

    Mines probably going to be Cable, Charlie and random, I like picking megaman, sentinal, felicia, juggernaught, magneto, etc so expect one of those on the end. Occasionally i'll mix things up a bit though.

    Servbot x3 for the win.

    Seeing as how many people picked Cable when I played in the arcade, I suspect that you'll see him quite a bit.

    It'll pretty much come down to Magneto/Storm/Sentinel being the "Ken" team, and Cable will be the "Ken" character used in all kinds of whacky team set-ups.

    Cable, Iron Man, and the Sentinel.  Any guys whos super is some sort of direct huge ass beam.  Cable is just a ridiculous character, every regular move he has is powerful or leads to a 5 hit combo.

    Storm, Cable, Sentinel and Magneto seem to end up together.  If you see one you'll probably see the other.

    I haven't encountered the SF4 Ken effect yet.  I don't play ranked matches though.

    **
    Actually that's not true.  Guile + anyone who's big and dashes is hard to beat.  Guile can combo two sweeps into a super move that's insanely strong.  If you're crouch blocking when juggernaut comes in then Guile starts the combo with an overhead attack and you're caught.  If you do a standing block to avoid Juggernaut, Guile can just do the sweeps alone and you're stuck in a super combo.  Constantly jumping to avoid it does really work since the other character is usually anti-air.
