Actually
Wolverine will kick almost anyone's ass in the Capcom vs. series. This started out as a Ryu vs. Ken post, but since you brought it up, there are others that are good, too.
Wolverine's weapon X is one of the most powerful supers in the game, and will go through any projectile (even Ryu's "big one" :biggrin
. It also comes out lightning fast, virtually teleporting him across the screen. His dash is one of the most effective in the game, and he's in your face and starting a combo before you even knew what hit you. Berserker barrage X also does excellent damage when you put it into a combo, and it initiates the "flying screen," giving you a chance for even more hits. Wolverine's drill claw has excellent recovery time, can be done in the air (even to change direction mid-flight), and can be done in any direction. His slide can go under anyone's projectile (except for Ryu's
). His fierce throw is also very difficult to tech hit out of, and he can strong throw in the air. Overall, I would have to say that Wolverine is perhaps the easiest out of all the characters to do combos with. Unfortunately, that also makes ppl refer to him as a "button-smasher" character, although I disagree.
