Story[]

X-Men vs. Street Fighter[]

Birdie tells Sabretooth that the mission is complete and that everyone has been defeated. Sabretooth tells her otherwise. He still wants to defeat Wolverine.

Gameplay[]

Special Attacks[]

  • Berserker Claw: Sabretooth dashes forward doing a fast swipe with his claw. The Light Punch version does less damage and has less range, but a much faster start up time. The damage difference on a Light Berserker Claw compared to Hard isn't very much, and it's range is still fairly good regardless, so it's typically better to use most times in combos.
  • Wild Fang: A jump grab attack. Sabretooth jumps in the air with his claw out and if he touches an enemy he'll do a flip throw. This works even if your opponent is airborne. Your Wild Fang can be blocked though.
  • Armed Birdie: Sabretooth calls out Birdie whom pulls out a big gun and pops a few shots off. Light Kick makes them come out directly forward while Hard Kick arcs slightly up while traveling forward.

Hyper Combos[]

  • Berserker Claw X: A souped up version of the Berserker Claw with a large amount of start up time. It's really hard to consistently combo into this without some help, but the damage on it is good.
  • Weapon X Dash: Another improved version of one of Sabretooth's normal attacks, this time it's the Wild Fang. Again, Sabretooth jumps forward with his claw out and if he connects with his enemy, grounded or airborne, he'll do a series of attacks. This can also be blocked.
  • Heavy Armed Birdie: A very damaging attack if it hits or is blocked. Again, like the normal version Sabretooth calls out Birdie who shoots a ton of bullets out in a wide range area. A ton of start up time on this, making it all but impossible to combo with, but a great move if you land it. The wide range area of this Hyper Combo is reduced however in Marvel vs. Capcom 2.
