Gambit
"Style is everything and you don't got none, mon ami!"

Gambit is simply a great combo character. In addition to his great speed, he's got awesome range and power. Basically, just keep dashing and jumping in on your opponent with Gambit. He's great at offense against anybody and his defense is great for the characters which are faster than him.

Magic Series
Ground Magic: ZigZag
Air Magic: ZigZag
Super Jump Magic: ZigZag
Strikes: S.Fierce
Knockdowns: C.Roundhouse
Air Launcher: C.Fierce
AC Finishers: Fierce, Roundhouse Forward Air Throw

Special Comments
Gambit's launcher is extremely powerful. It sends all of his opponents sky high so he has to jump up quite high before he can start attacking. His Fierce Cajun Slash and his Royal Flush super will both OTG a knocked down opponent, so learn how to cancel his C.Roundhouse well with those moves. His Fierce throw will easily allow him to OTG his opponents if done in a corner.

Combos
Easy Combos
1) D.S.Short, S.Roundhouse --> Jab-Kinetic Card
2) C.Roundhouse --> Fierce-Cajun Slash or Royal Flush(OTG)
3) J.Fierce \/ S.Roundhouse --> Jab-Cajun Slash
4) J.Fierce, J.Roundhouse \/ Jab-Cajun Slash
5) Helper Attack, Royal Flush

Harder Combos
1) J.Fierce, J.Roundhouse \/ D.S.Short, S.Roundhouse --> Jab-Kinetic Card
2) D.S.Jab, S.Short, S.Forward, S.Roundhouse --> Jab-Cajun Slash
3) J.Fierce, J.Roundhouse \/ D.S.Short, C.Roundhouse --> Fierce-Cajun Slash (OTG)
4) J.Fierce \/ D.C.Jab, C.Short, C.Fierce /\ SJ.Jab, SJ.Short, SJ. Strong, SJ.Forward --> AC Finisher
5) J.Fierce \/ D.C.Short, C.Strong, C.Roundhouse --> Royal Flush(OTG)
Gambit's most painful combo so far. Be quick when cancelling into the Royal Flush or it'll miss.

6) In Corner: Fierce Throw, C.Short(OTG), C.Fierce /\ SJ.Jab, SJ.Short, SJ. Strong, SJ.Forward --> AC Finisher
I love this combo. I only use it on Wolverine though. Just throw them. It'll be impossible to avoid the OTG combo unless they roll. Have fun!

7) J.Fierce, J.Roundhouse \/ D.S.Short, C.Fierce --> Royal Flush
You must be right next to your opponent after launching them in order for the Royal Flush to connect. Gambit's staff will knock them down into the cards.

8) J.Short, J.Forward, J.Fierce\/ D.S.Short, S.Roundhouse --> Jab-Kinetic Card, D.C.Short, C.Fierce /\ SJ.Short, SJ.Forward --> AC Finisher
When the kinetic card hits, immediately dash in and OTG into the air combo. You can pull off a Royal Flush instead of the air combo if you want to stick a super in there.
