+INTRO & COPYRIGHT+
Here I am once more bringing you a guide for a game I've really been into for
the past weeks: Marvel vs Capcom 3. Although I will go over what certain terms
and controls mean, this guide won't be about the whole game. This guide is
strictly about that smack talkin' cool demon hunter from Devil May Cry (Read:
my second favorite character outside this game)! I've played DMC3 a lot back in
the day, so excuse me if I post random trivia lol. I should point out i'm no
expert at all, so please excuse the countless info I may get wrong. Not only is
some of this based on my own experience in the online world, but also some of
this stuff is things found from matches I've watched from around the net, and
frame data from the official guide itself.
If you would like to add anything to the guide (Please Do! There's gotta be
SOMETHING wrong), or if you want to send a thanks, email me at
[email protected] or comment on my blog. Make sure you put 'Dante
Guide' in your email title or most of the time I won't open it.

crossups will be a guarantee hit.
(Down/2) Normal Crouching. Obviously you're not blocking here so you can still

REAL NAME: Dante
OCCUPATION: Devil Hunter
WEAPONS: While best known for his large sword Rebellion and his personally
hand-crafted guns Ebony and Ivory, he can use weapons from any place and time -
- shotguns, dual swords, nunchaku, rocket launchers, etc.
ABILITIES: In addition to his large sword and handguns, he can transform into a
demon through his Devil Trigger ability. While transformed, he gains access to
new powers.
FIRST APPEARANCE: Devil May Cry (2001)
PROFILE: Half-man half-demon born from the legendary devil knight Sparda and
his human wife Eva. When he was still young, his mother was killed in a demon
attack. To hunt down those responsible, he became a Devil Hunter and opened up
a shop named "Devil May Cry."
TIP: For those wondering 'why doesn't he have a Devil Trigger model in model
viewer', just press back while in Model Viewer. This works for Phoenix (Dark
Phoenix) and Arthur (King's Armor).

When you pick up Dante, the first thing you'll notice is almost every different
strength of attacks will do a completely different move. Dante by far has the
most moves in the game, which gives him a ton of options and combo
opportunities. Plus, his normal attacks have a TON of range. With all of his
moves, you'd think he would automatically be the best character in the game
right? Not quite.
One hard thing about Dante is you want to get great with him, you have to
really learn how to control your button pressing. Dante is all about move
cancelling, so if you're like me at times and subconsciously mash a button
without knowing it you're gonna have trouble. Since mashing randomly can bring
out a plethora of moves without even meaning to, you have to have complete
control over what you're doing.
Dante's keepaway game isn't the greatest other. Sure, his pistol attacks are
great for people without projectiles, but a lot of his own projectiles can get
beat out pretty damn easily by others.
Lastly, Dante is the Ryu of MvC3, even more so than Ryu himself! What I mean by
that is he's without question the most used character online and tournament
wise (but mostly online), just like in SSF4. You won't ever have a problem
getting practice against this guy, so after a while he will seem rather easy to
beat.
So basically, Dante is a hard character to learn (the hardest in the game imo).
His strength lies in his mix-ups, his range on his normals, and move cancelling
into some really hardcore Devil May Cry 3 type combos!
STRENGTHS
---------
+ 40+ moves which gives him a lot of options
+ Highly impressive combos
+ Amazing range on normals
WEAKNESSES
----------
+ Keepaway is pretty weak compared to others.
+ Low health
+ To do heavy damage, needs to do a lot of move cancelling combos.

The only normal of his that isn't a sword attack, Dante shoots at the
opponent's feet with Ivory (the grey pistol). This can be comboed into just
about anything he pleases, so this is by far he best combo starter.
______________________________________________________________________________

Dante will do a sweeping slash with Rebellion that wont trip people like most

Grd = Until Grounded
DMC fans will recognize this as his Helm Breaker attack from DMC3 and DMC4.
Dante delivers a rather high priority sword strike down to the ground. This
attack is the one you'll probably see most Dante players online use after a
teleport.
TRIVIA: His air normals are the same as the attack 'Aerial Rave' from DMC3.

[DANTE-1.3]
_______________________________________________________________________________
This section will go over the various attacks Dante can do regarding his
pistols Ebony & Ivory, and what things that they can extend into.
_____________________________________________________________________________
|Command \ Damage \ Start up \Act. \ Rec. \ Adv. on Hit \ Adv. if Guarded \
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
| s.H xx | 70,000 \ 13 \ 3(19) \ 16 \ +10 \ +7 |
| HH | +68,600 \ \ 7~21 \ \ \ |
.----------------------------------------------------------------------------.
Dante will cancel his standing heavy attack into fullscreen straight gunfire
from his two pistols Ebony & Ivory. A good move from far away, but even some
medium sized characters can duck under it since Dante aims way too high. This
move is not really a threat and easy to see coming because if you see someone
constantly doing standing heavy attacks, they're more than likely trying to do
this. H can be mashed to add more hits.
______________
| Weasel Shot \____________________________________________________________
| s.H xx | 104,100 \ 13 \2~3(15) \ 13 \ +15 \ +13 |
| Backwards + H | -154,100 \ \ 7~39 \ \ ~+18 \ ~+17 |
.-------------------------------------------------------------------------.
Dante jumps backwards slightly and aims down at an angle shooting, similar to
Amaterasu's Cold Star. Covered with a beam assist, this is great for locking
down anyone trying to get close to you. The only problem with this move is it
can't be cancelled into anything. H can be mashed to add more hits.
______________
| Cold Shower \_________________________________________________________
| DF/3 + HH | 47,500 \ 11 \ 5~15 \ 22 \ 0 \ -1 |
| | -85,900 \ \ \ \ \ |
.----------------------------------------------------------------------.
Similar to 'Wild Stomp' from DMC3 but without the ending kick, Dante aims
downward while standing and showers the ground with gunfire. OTG-Capable, and
is the basis of a lot of his advanced combos. H can be mashed to add more hits.
____________________________________________________________________________
| S xx H | 122,700 \ 11 \ 2~3(10) \ 21 \ -+10 \ -16 |
| | -226,100 \ \ 5-49 \ \ \ ~-60 |
.--------------------------------------------------------------------------.
After the Launcher, Dante will juggle the opponent in the air with Ebony and
Ivory. Like Weasel Shot it's not hyper-cancellable, but unlike Weasel Shot it
can actually cancel into Stinger and Prop Shredder. Even with that, this is
probably the most unneeded Ebony & Ivory attack he has. You won't be using this
a lot. H can be mashed to add more hits.
_______________________________________________________________________
| HH | 47,500 \ 16 \ 8~68 \ Ground \ - \ - |
| (Air Only) | -162,400 \ \ \ \ \ |
.---------------------------------------------------------------------.
This attack is the same as 'Rainstorm' from DMC2 up until DMC4, the one attack
where he will spin in the air shooting downwards. While it is OTG capable, Cold
Shower is much better as you can cancel it into a super. One good use the move
has is you jump over...say Iron Man's Proton Cannon, and you know you'll fall
into it before it finishes and you want to avoid chip damage, this can be used
to extend your airtime. This move can be cancelled into Killer Bee (QCF+L).
__________
| Stinger \____________________________________________________________________
| Forward + H | 80,000 \ 19 \ 6 \ 24 \ -2 \ -3 |
.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------.
Just like his crouching heavy and Forward + H, Dante does the same stinger move
but with a few differences. The biggest one is the fact it causes wall bounce
if the opponent is caught with Cold Shower in the air, and then cancelled into
this.
________________
| Prop Shredder \_________________________________________________________
| S button | 104,100 \ 13 \2-3(15) \ 13 \ +15 \ +13 |
| | -154,100 \ \ 7-21 \ \ ~+18 \ ~+17 |
.-------------------------------------------------------------------------.
Dante spins his sword around in front of him, just like in DMC3. Prop Shredder
has a LOT of hidden range on it. The only real flaw is this attack can ONLY be
done after:
- Cold Shower
- s.H xx HH
- S xx H
Prop Shredder can only be cancelled into Dante's teleport or a super jump.
~~~Frame Data~~~
You're probably wondering right now: WTF is all the other stuff next to damage?
Well, that is what the fighting game community calls 'Frame Data'. What this
basically tells you is how long a move takes before it comes out (Start Up),
how long the hitbox of the move will stay open for damage (Active), how long
you will be open once the moves does come out (Recovery), and other important
things to know. Going on about Frame Data is outside the bounds of this guide,
so links explaining it will be provided in the 'Final' section :).

With the devil gun Artemis, Dante will unleash an orb of energy that homes in
on the opponent, not matter where they are on the screen!
Unfortunately, this is the only strength it has. It takes Dante a bit to
actually pull the gun out to shoot, and then it takes another bit for the
homing orb to actually fire at the opponent. So as you can tell, this a VERY
slow attack that really shouldn't be used at all. The speed is terrible, plus
the orbs can be beaten out by most other projectiles. If you have to use this,
use it when a opponent is basically full-screen away.
Multi-Lock can be charged up to 5 hits. While charging, Dante can move however
he wishes, but he can't block or teleport (teleporting cancels out the move).

.-----------------------------------------------------------------.
The much better alternate to Multi-Lock, Acid Rain is where Dante will shoot 3
orbs in the sky, and then they will 'rain' down in the area all around Dante.
It's way weaker than a full charged Multi-lock, but much faster and better for
combos. If done at the right time, this move can hit mostly beam characters
right of their supers.

Dante will take out the Devil Arm Cerberus and strike the ground with it,
causing 4 large ice spikes to come out of the ground. It can be a little slow
coming out, but nowhere near as slow as Multi-lock, and the added fact this
move has amazing range on it. The only thing with this move is the fact that if
done on a blocking opponent who likes to advance guard, you can kiss this
goodbye. Dante gets pushed back almost full-screen.

Doing the same as Crystal, Dante will strike the ground with Cerberus, but now
he himself will be surrounded by ice spikes. The better of the 2 for OTG combos
and as an anti-air, the attack doesn't even have close to the forward range
Crystal has.

Dante implants Lady's (DMC3/4 character) rocket launcher, Kalina Ann, into the
ground and fires off 8 mini rockets that home in on the opponent. Can actually
be used as a good keep-away move if the opponent is full-screen away since it's
faster than Multi-Lock, BUT it can be punished hard by characters such as Ryu
or Akuma with fast full-screen beam hypers. The only real flaw with this attack
is the homing isn't nearly as good as Multi-Lock.

.-------------------------------------------------------------------.
Dante will fire a bayonet grapple from Kalina Ann that grabs the opponent full-
screen away. Like a lot of other moves from not only Dante but anyone else,
this wont hit small crouching characters (Amaterasu says hi). A pattern you
probably noticed is the cancelled version of Dante's attacks are better for
combos. Here is no different, as this puts the opponent in the air in front of
Dante just right.

A move where Dante will slide on his knees 'rock-star' style while strumming
Nevan. One of Dante's best rush moves, as it comes out extremely fast and can
combo from and into a LOT of things, but is mostly used to link into Fireworks.

Dante will spin around in a wide circle in the air with Cerberus. Another rush
move, unwary players can be crossed up with this move in the corner. If done at
the right time, it is possible to jump over some projectiles attacks to hit to
opponent before they can recover.

Dante's strongest but slowest rush attack, Dante will rush forward with the
twin blades Agni & Rudra, as he swings them criss-cross in front of him. In
order for the move to go in the full 6 hit combo, the first hit HAS to connect.
If blocked, Dante is left extremely wide open for punish unless cancelled into
a super or X-factor.

This move can only be used by pressing Heavy Attack during:
- Reverb Shock
- Revolver
- Jet Stream
After these attacks, Dante with swing around his sawn-off shotgun (no, it
doesn't have a special name, just shotgun) nunchaku style and fire up to 4
times. This is a great ender, as it can be linked into either one of Dante's
supers. Great chipper, very easy to mash out, and it protects Dante for a bit
if his attacks are blocked.

This move can only be used by pressing Special attack during:

With up to 40+ moves, Dante is bound to have at least ONE that's useless. Crazy
Dance is that move. After the 3 attacks mentioned above, Dante will do the same
Crazy Dance combo from DMC3. Sure, it's stronger than fireworks, but the timing
on getting this move out is extremely strict. It can't be mashed out like
fireworks can, plus the fact it can't even be cancelled into a super. Forget
this move and use the MUCH better alternate.

An extension to Twister, Dante spins in the air while holding Agni & Rudra
under him, just like a ceiling fan. Only use this if Twister connects, as the
recovery period for this is pretty long.

Dante strikes the ground with his fist while wearing the gauntlet weapon
Beowulf, creating a small explosion of light. In just about every Dante combo
video, you will see this move used a lot, and for good reason. It's OTG capable
and easy to cancel into a jump for more combo madness.

One of my favorite special attacks in the game, Dante will rapidly kick the
opponent Chun-Li style, 'stinging' them, then finishes up with a overhead axe
kick. Outside of canceling from Volcano, there really is no use for this move.

An Anti-Air attack, similar to Reverb Shock Dante will slide forward on his
knees, creating a pillar of electricity that hits all the way to the top of the
screen. The recovery is pretty nasty if missed though. Think of it like this:
Someone running away from you while in the air? Jam Session. Someone running
away from you while on the ground and cornered? Reverb shock.

Dante will take Beowulf out again and kick downward at a 45% angle. Sadly
though, you cannot jump cancel this move like in DMC3. If the opponent in the
air and this move connects, this cause a ground bounce just like Sky Dance only
more consistently. A dangerous move against Haggar and Thor, ONLY use this in
combos as Dante can be thrown out of the recovery if blocked.

One of Dante's better attacks for outside of combos, he will do a downward
overhead swing using both hands. If your opponent is doing any air move, super
or not, this WILL blow through it since this move makes Dante invincible 100%!
The thing is though this move is short, so the invincibility isn't long at all.

Basically an extended version of The Hammer in terms of controlling space but
without the invincibility, Dante takes Nevan out once more and strums it to
create a projectile that shoots at an angle a little higher than Killer Bee.
Meant for controlling jumpers, the recovery period of this move is quick enough
where you can air-dash afterwards and combo with Air M.

A move you WILL see a lot of online, Dante with use Agni and Rudra and spins
downward, ending with a cross slash on the ground. Damage is GREAT for some of
Dante's more devastating combos, but outside of that the recovery is
horrendous.
This move CAN ground bounce leading into more Dante shenanigans, but it only
does it IF the last hit connects or if the opponent hasn't been bounced once
already. If you're not sure if that last hit will connect, it's better off to
cancel into the Million Dollars hyper.

Dante's teleport move taken from his 'Trickster' style in DMC3 and 4, it's
practically impossible to run from Dante since Air Trick makes Dante appear
always above the opponent. The flaw here is obvious though: He appears in the
same place every single time, so it's very predictable and punishable if done
without assist help.

Dante reels back a bit holding Rebellion, and then swings it across the ground,
creating a small shockwave. I guess Capcom really tried to get almost every
move Dante had in DMC3 in this game, even if they would be bad. The start-up is
very long, so it's practically useless in combos. Another move I haven't tested
much at all to be honest.

Dante's command jump. At first glance you'll probably think 'oh it's just a
regular UF/9 jump, why is it its own move', that's because it IS just a regular
jump.
....outside of combos. With this 'normal jump', Bold Move can easily be one of
Dante's most deadly combo assets. The overall idea is Bold Move is used to
cancel from any normal attack that can't be done with a regular jump. Dante's
possibilities extend greatly, as he can go into any of his air attacks, air
dash forward and continue combos, or air dash back if one of your normals are
blocked. Check out the finals section below for a video link on Bold
Cancelling, a technique used to cancel an non-cancellable attack (Example:
Stinger) into a special move (Example: Volcano)
---Assists---
Alpha Assist: Jam Session
+ Does Dante's DP + H move with the purple guitar weapon Nevan. A GREAT anti
air assist, but it can also be used to extend combos. His best assist imo.

Dante's hyper of choice, he will continually shoot both Ebony and Ivory it a
stream in front of him, ending with a charged shot.
For non-jumpers, this a GREAT keep-away move, as it goes full screen. Usually
though, it's a lot better to end combos with it since it's not exactly the
strongest super on its own. One problem with this super is when it's blocked.
Before the final shot, Dante pauses a bit to charge, and the opponent is pretty
much free to do anything. I recommend having Dante as first or second since in
the event this happens, you can DHC into your next characters super.

This super morphs Dante into his Rebellion Devil Trigger from DMC3. Dante gains
even MORE moves (only 3 though), a regeneration factor that heals red life, and
15% damage boost. Other than those bonuses, DT Dante plays exactly the same as
regular Dante. The only flaw is the fact it lasts a very short time.

Dante's flying state. If you need a good 'get away from me' tactic, this is the
one to do it. Unlike Phoenix or Dormammu, Dante can't teleport during flight
(Special button stops it), so outside of running away Air Raid is only

In DT form, Dante will fire electricity downwards at about a 45 degree angle.

In DT form, Dante will spiral forward (just like Psycho Crusher) while covered
in electricity. If your opponent is doing any air move, super or not, this
WILL blow through it since this move makes Dante invincible 100%! The thing is
though this move is short, so the invincibility isn't long at all. Like almost

Dante's level 3 hyper attack. If the first stinger connects, Dante will go into
4 rapid stinger attacks, ending with a final one that explodes the opponent
with demonic energy. Good power for a level 3, and it has slightly more range
than a Forward + H Stinger. If you're looking for great start-up invincibility
and an unscaled damage super, this is the move to go with. Regarding combos,
there really isn't much difference at all. Million Dollars works just as fine,
plus it costs less meter.

if you want you can relax a little and wait until the final shot before doing

time the button press, just hold the assist button down then let go

but in a real match this causes you to switch characters. It's better
now to go ahead and learn the timing of the button press than using

As soon as Stinger connects, quickly cancel into Bold Move and go from there.

REQUESTS

I'm going to try something a little different here. If you see anything in this
guide (or my Phoenix/Spencer guides) that you would like to see covered, you
are welcome to email me with 'Guide Requests: Character name here'. As long as
it relates to the character in the game then I can see what I can do. I won't
take requests regarding character history for 2 reasons: One is that's not the
overall focus of this guide, and two is when it comes to Spencer or most
certainly Phoenix, I really don't know much at all since I'm not a comic reader
or Bionic Commando player. Dante is the only one where I know a lot about
concerning his history.
This section is mostly videos link to various videos I've found around the net
regarding a character. Unless stated otherwise by myself or a email, I will
always give credit to the person who made them. If anyone has a problem with
it, just PM me on gamefaqs or email me and i'll take it down
I want to point out I am not a expert, or am I associated with any of the
people's videos that I linked here. I'm just someone who's a fan of Dante and
wanted to do my own thing for him based on what I've experienced.
Once again, I stress for emails regarding updates to this guide. Since I've
only been to one fighting tournament in my life (SSF4, Carolina Gaming Summit
2011), I'm strictly an online warrior. I would love to go to more tournaments
and get some experience, but that's just not an option for me since 95% of them
are out of state.
Also, a little thanks Brady Games Official Marvel vs Capcom 3 strategy Guide,
any site that hosts this faq, Shoryuken.com, Eventhubs.com, to people who makes
the videos and tutorials for this character, and to Capcom and Marvel for
joining forces once again to bring you...this wonderful game!
