Nobody seems to have a huge problem with the idea, so I think I'll add Thanos and Darkseid to the roster and bump the total up to
This will be the last time that I increase the base roster, though - both because I don't want to move the goalposts too much, and because 52 is a significant number for DC.
Anyone who had Darkseid in their vote (myself, Speed Weed , @Darkonedagger, Qwerty UIOP , Tankman from Newgrounds ), feel free to change your vote to someone else. (in most of these cases, I doubt that it will have much of an impact since the rest of you had Darkseid in third, but as we saw with the Spider-Man villains round, one point can make a difference) I'm going to edit my original post.

Marvel vs. Capcom character:
Rogue
I feel like a few more X-Men couldn't hurt, and Rogue's powers seem like they'd lend themselves well to a fighting game. (she can absorb the abilities of others, which could be her unique ability) For the sake of our hypothetical programmers, she'd probably gain a few abilities that overlap with each other depending on who she's fighting, so she'd get eye beams if she absorbed the powers of Cyclops/Darkseid/Superman, a heavy punch with plenty of super armour if she absorbed the Thing/the Hulk/Wonder Woman, a counter if she absorbed the powers of someone skill-based like Batman/Nightwing/Daredevil/Captain America/Black Panther/Ra's/Deadpool, etc., and maybe a few unique actions for characters like Wolverine or Magneto)
Rogue started out as a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, though after an encounter with Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel where she drained too much from her and absorbed her psyche, she eventually joined the X-Men and became a hero. She's a well-known member of the team (in part due to the 90's cartoon), and one of the prime examples of some people seeing their mutations as a curse. (she can't make direct contact with another human being)

I'll come up with a Thor moveset later tonight.
