Sigma (Marvel vs. Capcom)

==Summary==
Sigma is a primary antagonist from the Marvel vs. Capcom series. Created by reverse-engineering Mega Man X, Sigma once protected humanity against Mavericks, the Reploids who malfunctioned and became a threat to humanity. One day, however, Zero's stasis pod was unearthed, and he awakened in an out-of-control state, having been infected with a mysterious virus. Zero eventually overcame this virus, but Sigma did not. Corrupted, Sigma became the instigator of numerous Maverick uprisings.
Upon meeting Ultron, the two form an alliance, sharing the same goal of destroying all biological life. They create a plan to betray Thanos and take the Infinity Gems for themselves, using the Space and Reality Gems to merge the Marvel and Capcom worlds into one.
Once Thanos is brought into Sigma's lab, the two initiate their plan. Uploading the Maverick's consciousness into his own using the Reality Stone, Ultron, Sigma, and his virus become one, and Ultron-Sigma is born.

*Arc Divide: Sigma swings his beam sword, leaving behind a stationary dimensional rift that lingers throughout the battlefield for a brief period of time. Depending on attack strength, the dimensional rift will either linger in front of Sigma or linger in the air, making for a good anti-air attack. The rift's range is also dependent on attack strength.
**Second Divide: Sigma follows up with another Arc Divide after the first. Just like the initial attack, the position and range of the rifts are dependent on attack strength.
*Straight Divide: Sigma charges towards his opponent with a shoulder tackle before sending them flying with a slash. Depending on attack strength, he will either charge diagonally upwards or charge straight, which causes the opponent to wall bounce. This attack can also be performed mid-air, where Sigma will either charge diagonally downwards or straight depending on attack strength.

*Mirage Claw: Sigma grabs the opponent before slamming them to the ground with a low arching slash. Depending on attack strength, the opponent will either be sent flying away from Sigma, or they will ground bounce near him, allowing for a follow-up attack.
*Counter Teleport: Sigma holds out his beam sword, waiting for the opponent to strike. When hit with a projectile, the sword will reflect it back at the opponent. When hit with a physical attack, Sigma will teleport above and/or behind the opponent, striking them with a low arching aerial slash.
