[quote name='Dr Mario Kart']When you kill a character, can you get anything for free (guaranteed) on the new character as they appear? Like an air throw, or command ground throw.[/QUOTE]
Not from what I could tell, but I didn't mess around with it too much.
A few other things that spring to mind..
+ RANDOM but if anyone has buttons plugged on their stick, it could kinda stink. My friend was unable to pick the 4th color for certain characters because he has RB plugged on his stick. This included Black and White Deadpool and Mango Sentinel.
+ Tron Bonne has great animations. Was never a big Tron player before so I can't comment on her effectiveness... I couldn't do ANYTHING with her.
+ Doom seems more combo friendly now.
+ I didn't play as Zero, Morrigan or Magneto... yeah I know I didn't play as Mag

ing Neto. I had him on my team once but we got a time over.
+ I couldn't get any advanced combos using OTG pick-ups or X-Factor to work, so it isn't easy as it would appear to be in videos.
+ Dante has some strong juggles that are really easy. Stuff like W M H LAUNCH W M H QCF+H (that spinning move you may have seen in videos) QCF+2xATK.
+ MODOK is goofy as hell to play. He feels really weird and will take some serious commitment. In terms of a keep away character, he would appear to me to be better than Arthur, but it is VERY early.
+ X-23 is great. She is very fast and has great supers. Her DP motion +2xATK super is similar to Wolvie's from MvC2, but comes out very fast. I was able to punish things like crouching H attack on sight with it.
+ Akuma takes a lot, but deals a lot. Pro-Tip: you do his shadow-dash move with the Special Button now... this took me awhile to figure out (and a bunch of wasted meter).
+ Those tag-in juggles that are in all the videos are as easy as they look. I was doing them effectively in like the 2nd or 3rd match I played.
+ Chris is surprisingly strong. I was surprised at the damage you can get just from doing a simple combo into his punch special into super.
+ Spencer will take a lot of time to learn. He is fun though. His QCB+2xATK super is only one powerful hit, which will be useful early in combos because it won't set the damage scaling up high like many supers do.
+ Skrull is one of my favorite new characters. Great supers, powerful attacks, lots of useful stuff. He will be a popular choice.
+ Wesker is going to be great. Lots of options, tons of mobility, damaging combos, a useful level 3, counters, teleport. He will be good.
+ I wasn't feeling the dog at all, although it has pretty cool alts. I couldn't figure anything out with it. It looks great in action though, graphics wise.
+ My boy Sentinel feels really different. Not much to say that you can't get from watching the videos. I wish he had a level 3. I noticed that some versions of Rocket Punch don't travel full-screen anymore.
