Top Ten Marvel Ultimate Alliance Characters

10. Doctor Strange
While lacking in physical attacks, Doctor Strange makes up for it with his energy attacks--most specifically, his Falteen Flame, which is capable of both damaging enemies within a large radius, but also absorbing the health of his enemies and distributing it to the rest of his team. Doctor Strange is also one of the superheroes who can fly and glide. His other magical abilities include a variety of projectiles.
9. Ghost Rider
Ghost Rider has great close-up attacks and a variety of distant attacks thanks to his weapon, the chain. His chain also turns out to be among the more powerful weapons. His power, the Ravaging Flame, causes enemies to combust, while his special power, Fiendish Chain, throws his enemies into the air. Chain Flechette, although lacking in power, is a good projectile. 
8. Silver Surfer
Silver Surfer is able to move quickly and can also fly. He has the ability to heal his team. Although some of his special powers do little damage or defense and are mostly for show, his extreme special, Galactic Might, damages nearby enemies and heals his teammates, similarly to Doctor Strange’s Falteen Flame.
7. Ms. Marvel
Ms. Marvel is a well-rounded character, as she has both powerful and quick attacks. She is able to fly as well, and has a wide range of close attacks, projectiles, and team boosts. Some projectile attacks of hers does not have the range that others do, however. Her special, Explosive Touch, doubles as a team boost because it recharges her teammates’ energy levels.
6. Spider-Woman
Spider-Woman is fast and can fly. Her projectile, Spider’s Blood, bounces off walls, therefore making it effective, especially in a crowded room. She has a good range for attacks, although she specializes in projectile and energy-based attacks. Her team boosts, Attract and Metabolic Aura, heal the team and advance her powers. The only drawback is that there is some delay in the execution of some of her projectiles, which can also leave her briefly vulnerable.
5. Thor
Thor has strong attacks, great specials, and the ability to fly. When he grabs onto his enemies his attacks become even more devastating. Although Mjolnir, his hammer, prevents Thor from performing too many distance attacks, his special attacks can wipe out enemies easily. In particular, the Wrath of Gods can bring lightning down from the sky to strike opponents as well as to heal his teammates.
4. Iron Man
Iron Man is a very strong character with very powerful attacks. His combination of powers, which include a radial attack which can clear groups of surrounding enemies, a strong projectile, and an uppercut, which when charged, can take out an enemy with a single blow, all make him incredibly devastating. His suit gives him the capability to ascend into the air instead of double jumping.
3. Wolverine
Wolverine is strong, agile, and has both powerful close range attacks as well as specials. He lacks distant moves; however, he easily makes up for it through his Berserker mode. In this mode, his strength increases, and he is able to use a new variety of special attacks that cannot be used when in his normal mode. Wolverine is a highly recommended character for beginning players.
2. Captain America
Cap does not have any specific superpowers or any ways to fire projectiles, but that does not stop him from being an absolute powerhouse anyway. He has a good combination of close and long range attacks, and he does not really have too many drawbacks. Being a super soldier means he is at the peak of physical strength and speed for a human, so naturally he would be among the powerhouses of the team.
1. Deadpool

Deadpool is both powerful and quick, with a teleporting maneuver that replaces his double jump. This is especially useful when trying to go from one spot to another more quickly. The only downside to his attacks are that there are a slight delay in execution, but that is not too much of a price to pay for the Merc with a Mouth on the team. Deadpool’s wisecracks and one-liners help to make him both a useful asset as well as an amusing one.
