Servbot, known as Kobun in Japan, is a character from the Mega Man series by Capcom. They are a group of 41 small, indestructible robots made by Tron Bonne to do her bidding.

Servbot is a playable character in Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes.

Profile[]

Personality[]

Servbots are similar in appearance to LEGO minifigures and are often referred to by the fandom as "Lego People" for that reason. They also serve as the comic relief throughout the Legends series. During their adventures in The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, the Servbots don't seem to realise (or perhaps care) that they're stealing or doing anything wrong. Rather, they probably see their missions as just playing or simply doing anything they can to make Tron happy. They are unconditionally loyal and will gladly do anything for Tron, in contrast to the disloyal and double dealing Birdbots.

Story[]

Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes[]

MvC2 end 07

Servbots with Zangief and Iceman.

Servbots, alongside their creator, Tron, are among the heroes and villains gathered by Ruby Heart, they help in the battle against Abyss, by either fighting alongside Tron directly or on their own. After the battle, on Ruby Heart's ship, they can be seen getting along with Zangief and Iceman, much to Tron's slight surprise.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds[]

Servbots, no longer playable on their own, fight alongside Tron in the battle against Galactus to save the Earth. After the battle, Servbots come along with Tron as she asks Mega Man Volnutt out on a date with her new reprogrammed Sentinel she assigned as Servbot #42.

Gameplay[]

Servbots accompany Tron in Marvel vs. Capcom 2 as well as Marvel vs. Capcom 3 in several of her special moves, including her Hyper Combos King Servbot and Lunch Rush. As an individual selectable character, he is incredibly hard to hit due to his diminutive size (Servbot is, indeed, the smallest character in the game), and some attacks will miss him completely. A good example is Venom's Venom Web and most of Abyss' second form's moves, which Servbot is immune to. As such, Servbot is considered the smallest unmodified character to ever appear in a fighting game. A few of his Hyper Combos are also moderately powerful. The Servbot also has the lowest offense and defense of any other character in Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and can be defeated quite easily. Servbots can also be seen extensively in the background of Tron Bonne's stage in Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Special Attacks[]

  • Servbot Fire: Servbot will eat curry and then release a flame from his mouth. Holding Punch while executing this will result in Servbot charging up his fire attack, giving you a larger flame when you finally release the button. If you wait too long though, he'll just release the flame automatically and it will be as if you hadn't charged it up at all. Light Punch sends the flame straight ahead, while Hard Punch goes diagonally up-forward, which works as anti-air. The graphics of the flames are the same as Yoga Flame and Yoga Blast respectively.
  • Supporting Attack: Depending on the button you press, Servbot will summon another Servbot that does the following thing.
    • Light Punch: A fast moving Servbot comes out with a lunch tray and attacks.
    • Hard Punch: Two Servbots come out and one gets chucked at your enemy. If it hits he'll grab on and you'll have a brief period of time where you can combo the other player.
    • Light Kick: A helicopter Servbot comes down from the ceiling directly above you. Then he arcs down-foward for a short distance. This can hit multiple times.
    • Hard Kick: An anti-air move. Sends another helicopter Servbot that swoops down and then arcs back up, which should catch an aerial opponent.
  • Servbot Machine: Creates a robot which Servbot jumps into and drives forward hitting multiple times. The Hard Kick version does more damage, travels further forward, plus hits more. If it misses, Servbot is dizzied and left vulnerable to attacks.
  • Paper Airplane: Servbot will throw a paper airplane to his opponent. Holding down the Taunt button will make this fly until you release the button, or it travels almost full-screen's distance. The paper airplane will sit there for a brief moment and then explode. This doesn't get into a hittable state until the explosion happens, so it's possible to throw this past your enemy.

γ Balance Servbot Fire Servbot Fire Lunch Rush

Hyper Combos[]

  • Lunch Rush (Level 1): Servbot will summon a bunch of Servbots to attack the opponent. Depending on Servbot's assist type, the attack is different:
    • α: A bunch of Servbots run out holding trays stampeding the other player.
    • β: A series of Servbots with helicopters will appear and fall where the opponent is. This does more damage and hits more depending on how far the opponent is from the corner, similar to Hulk's Gamma Wave and Venom's Death Bite.
    • γ: Similar to the α version, but some of the Servbots now jump, making this attack more effective due to covering a larger area of the screen.
  • King Servbot (Level 1): Servbot grows a lot bigger with the help of some friends and proceeds to smash his enemy with a hammer. After you do this, you can control your Left and Right movements and pressing an attack key will make you smash down with your hammer, which can combo multiple times if you mash the attack buttons.

Trivia[]

  • Servbot starts releasing smoke when low on health, which happens similarly in Mega Man Legends after they are attacked enough.
    • Upon defeat, Servbot blows up and leaves behind Zenny, which are refractor shards that serve as the game's global currency.
  • It is possible that the Servbot that is playable in Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is either Servbot #1 or the vaguely mentioned Servbot #41, though Capcom has yet to confirm this.
