Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Cassie Cage

[Cassie Cage]

Name: Cassandra Carlton Cage

First Appearance: Mortal Kombat X (2015)

Occupation: Special Forces Sargent

Abilities: Good in special forces training; good in handling guns and has inherited her father’s Shadow Techniques but hasn’t mastered them yet.

Weapons: Guns and drone.

Bio: Cassandra Carlton Cage, the daughter of Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade, has a lot to live up to. Her parents were among the few kombatants to survive the wars against Outworld and Netherrealm, and were instrumental to Earthrealm's victories. Cassie is as strong-willed--and occasionally hotheaded--as her mother; and quick-witted as her beloved father, which makes her popular among her Special Forces unit. But these traits hide a seed of self-doubt cultivated by the demanding nature of her commanding officer: Sonya.

Intro: Cassie is seen being lowered by a rope from an offscreen helicopter while hanging upside from it as she aims her gun at the foe. She gets off and turns around, getting into her stance while her drone BLB-118 hovers by her

Cassie will bring out her two pistols and fires them at the foe a few times
Light has her firing both pistols downwards at an angle which hits off the ground.

Medium has her firing them both forwards which reaches a fullscreen distance but can easily be crouched under by most characters

Heavy has her firing upwards at an angle which is a decent anti-air attack.

This attack can be charged by holding down the button, as Cassie’s guns will begin to glow greener and green. When she fires them she only fires one shot each but they do great damage and can pierce through blocking.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Attack (During Dual Wield, Ground Only): BLB-118 Bullet Ricochet

Cassie will fire one pistol at her drone which the bullet fired will bounce
Light has the bullet ricochet downwards at an angle, Medium hits straight forward and Heavy is aimed upwards at an angle which can knock foes out of the sky.

This is a quick sniping too just in case the dodges the regular Dual Wield special move and while it only does one hit of damage; it does cause a small decent amount of hit stun.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Special (During Dual Wield, Ground Only): BLB-118 Energy Bounce

Cassie will fire her gun at her drone which creates a field of green energy to transform the bullet into a green energy projectile so it can quickly shoot the foe with it.

The projectile comes out in an arc that hits overhead and causes a ground bounce but even if it misses the foe; it will cause a small shockwave on the ground where it lands, tripping up the foe if they are too close to it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Forward-Down-Forward-Light (Can also be done in the air):  Up Glow Kick

Cassie will glow green while jumping up into the air to deliver an upward angled kick that knocks the foe into the air with her, making this essentially an uppercut attack and is a good anti-air as well.

Pressing Light again during this move has Cassie suddenly doing a dive kick towards the ground that pushes the opponent down and causes a ground bounce.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Forward-Down-Forward-Medium: Flippin’ Out

Cassie will suddenly leap high into the air forward with both guns drawn, flipping over to fire straight down onto the foe below her before landing.

She will only fire straight down soon as the foe is below her, this attack ends with the two switching sides and foe and it causes a ground bounce afterwards.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Forward-Down-Forward-Heavy: Shoulder Tackle

Cassie will suddenly dash at the foe while she is surrounded in a green aura, she has armor while doing this and while it’s a simple forward shove, it does decent damage that knocks the foe backwards.

Pressing Heavy again has her follow-up by lunging at the foe, pins them to the ground and then punches them in the face twice before glowing green to deliver a third stronger punch to them before rolling off. This grounds the foe meaning only an OTG attack can be followed-up with afterwards.

What is great is the follow-up is a command grab so even if Cassie misses or gets her first attack blocked; the lunging forward could catch the foe off guard.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Down-Backward-Light: Kneecappin’  

Cassie will suddenly bend down before firing a single pistol at the foe’s knees. This is a low shot projectile that reaches fullscreen, trips the foe and since Cassie is ducking while doing this move she will avoid most attacks.

Pressing Light again has her fire another shot that knocks the foe up into the air before quickly firing another to have them be knocked into the air more which involves them landing close to Cassie, setting them up for a juggling combo afterwards.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Down-Backward-Medium: Flying GLow Kick

Cassie will grab onto her drone before having it rush at the foe as she delivers a flying kick while she glows green.

This attack comes out quick, reaches nearly fullscreen, she can dodge low attacks and it causes a wall bounce
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Down-Backward-Heavy: Ball Buster  

Cassie will suddenly bend down to deliver a strong kick in between the foe’s legs, coming out quick, able to pass through most physical attacks and it causes the foe to be stunned and left open for attack afterwards.

Pressing Heavy again has her follow-up by punching the foe between the legs as well, causing a hard knockdown.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Down-Backward-Special: Control BLB-118

Cassie will bring out her phone to take control of her drone which the player can use to move around freely for a few seconds as Cassie stands there, but she is left open for attack while doing this so to get out quickly; the player needs to press special to get out or have BLB-118 do one of the three attacks it can do, so it can only attack once before but each one of it’s attacks is very useful.

How it attacks depends on the button pressed:
 
Light: BLB-118 will shoot a thin laser at the foe’s position, it only goes in a straight line so it can be dodged if the foe moves out the way in time but it comes out very quick and since it targets the foe’s position; it can be a good anti-air and it hits off the ground.

Medium: Has a bursting sphere of energy go off around it which stuns the foe on contact, leaving them stunned in place where they have been hit which sets them up for a combo.

Heavy: Has it drop a green energy bomb below it which hits low, hits off the ground and causes a ground bounce.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Backward-Down-Backward-Attack: Air Assault

Cassie will call out a missile to be dropped on the ground in front of her, instantly exploding on contact and knocking the foe away.

However it is a delayed attack as it takes a few seconds for the missile to drop.

Light has her call one close in front of her, Medium has her call one just a little bit farther and Heavy has her call one to land on the very far end of the screen.

This attack hits overhead and hits off the ground.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Half Circle Backwards-Attack (Ground Only): BLB-118 Escape

Cassie will grab her drone and glows green as the two speed away into the air, a simple get-away move that depends on button pressed.

Light has her fly upwards at an angle backwards, Medium has her be pulled upwards and Heavy has her be pulled upwards at an angle forwards.  

After the move is finished; Cassie will be released into the air, allowing her to follow-up with any air normals or air specials of the player’s choice
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Half Circle Backwards-Attack (Air Only): Power Slam

Cassie will grab the opponent in the air; flip them over and then pushes them to the ground with her feet as they fall.

The Light and Medium versions put the foe into a hard knockdown while Heavy causes a ground bounce.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[HYPER COMBOS]

Down-Forward-Attack X2: Air Raid

Cassie will say “Fire on my command!” as she orders a rain of missiles to explode across the ground in front for her in a row.

Similar to one of Magneto’s hyper combos; this attack pushes the foe across and it hits off the ground.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Down-Backward-Attack X2: Selfie Surprise

Cassie will say “Here, come here a second.” As she rushes forward with a dashing kick attack.
If she connects she’ll do some kicks, punches, punches the opponent in the groin and then punching the foe hard in the jaw.

Before the opponent falls to the floor she grabs the opponent, gets her phone and flashes a selfie with the opponent (in which the flash itself somewhat causes small damage) and then punches the opponent away afterwards which knocks the opponent far.
------------------------------------------
Forward-Down-Forward-Attack X2 (Level 3, can also be done in the air): Pissed AF

Cassie will say “Guess playtime is over now!” as she jumps into the air to deliver a downward diving kick while she glows green (if she is already in the air, the jump is skipped), if she connects with the foe; a cutscene will occur.

NOTE: From this point on almost every hit Cassie makes on the opponent is played in slow motion with the opponent’s grunts also in slow motion while the sounds of bones breaking and stuff is heard but not seen.

Cassie will first do a couple of punches to the foe’s face with her green glowing fists before taking out one of her pistols and smacks them across the face with.

She will then smack one of her pistols downwards before aiming both of her pistols downwards to shoot them both through the knees, doing great damage.

Lastly she will grab the foe with one hand to pull them in so she can press her pistol into their chest and starts firing a bunch of rounds, the last one causing the foe to go into slow motion and be knocked back, doing instant heavy damage thus ending the super.

However if this move is used on the last opponent and if the opponents health completely depletes by the end of this super, the move will instead end darkly.

The background turns black and the announcer suddenly shouts out “Finish him/her!” as the foe is knocked back by the end of the move.

Cassie rushes at the foe with both pistols drawn and firing all over the foe’s chest before she gets close enough to then deliver a strong upwards kick between the foe’s legs, launching them high into the sky before they drop to the ground with a loud thud.

Cassie smirks as BLB-118 floats besides her as they both look down onto the foe as the announcer says:

Cassie Cage Wins! FATALITY!”

------------------------------------------
Victory Pose: Cassie will BLB-118 hover around her before it hovers down in front of her for her to lean on, blowing a bubble and posing similar to her official MK11 render
