Hint: Strategy against Onslaught: Information in this section was contributed
by Ludo Bogaerts.
Small form: Use small characters to duck under his Mega-Optic
Blast. Characters such as Mega Man and Wolverine should do fine.
An easier way is to use Chun-Li or Ryu. Duck and press MP
followed by HK. This will stun him. Repeat until he is
defeated. As for partners, use the ones that use dashing attacks
and lasers which hit three times or more.
Larger form: Aim for the head , try to get two hits maximum. This
will probably stun him. Ryu's Air Hadoken super works well, as
well as Wolverine's Fatal Claw super and Mega Man's Hyper Mega-Man
super (or his jumping HP). Chun-Li 's Kikou-Shou works best when
you are at level 3. Use three of those supers to hit him hard
. You must position yourself below his head, though.
Hint: Blow up Tyrant: Note: You must have a level two super bar and Jill
must be out for this trick. Use her Tyrant Super. Right before
Tyrant leaves use her Rocket Launcher Super. If timed correctly
you will blow up Tyrant in a very humorous fashion. Note: Blowing
up Tyrant gives no extra bonuses, damage, or points.

Glitch: Frozen opponent: Select Spider Man and Venom as your characters. Then,
build up the super meter until it reaches two or max. When the
super meter reaches two or max, perform the super where two fighters
come up at the same time. Once the timer is activated for the
super, have Venom grab the opponent (Forward + HP).
The opponent should be covered in the web. Then, have Spider Man
do a web ball (Down, Down/Forward, Forward
+ Punch) before the opponent breaks free. If done correctly,
the opponent should not move at all. You can build up your super
meter, taunt, or do whatever until time runs out. They will stay
frozen until they get hit. Note: If you are player one and you
did this to player two, player two will not be able to move until
you hit him.
