The undisputed best characters in MvC2 are Storm, Sentinel, Cable, and Magneto.
Others like Cyclops, Strider w/Dr Doom, Mega Man, Rogue, Blackheart, Spiral, Iron Man, Ken, and Captain Commando are pretty good too, but not as good as those 4.
Check out shoryuken.com's MvC2 section, they have alot of good info there.

Ubersaurus is correct. The god tier as they're called. They throw the game off balance completely.
The top tier below them is made up of Cyclops, Commando, Doom, Blackheart. Debatably Dhalsim, Iron Man, Spiral as well.
Everyone else is the normal tier, except for Dan, Roll, and Servbot, the bottom tier. The normal tier can all be used great, believe it or not, but the upper tiers have moves and such that make them better, so if you put someone of the same skill against someone else of the same skill, most of the time, the upper tiers will win out.
As far as your team, you must whore out Spidey's Capture assist and Ken's AC->Hurricane Kick, the bugged one that autoresets for huge damage. Only way you'll win.

All you need to know is that MvC2 is primarily a team absed game. Certain characters are really good with certain assists, like strider and dr doom's anti air assist. Others are just plain good from their assists, like captain commando's anti air.

Dhalsim-Great character, hard to master.
Cable-Easy to get hooked on. Great to use once mastered.
Dr. Doom- Seems like a poor mans Cable to me.
Iron Man-Easy to use, Nice projectile attacks like Cable and DR. doom. (better than War Machine)
Juggernaut/Hulk- Cool because they can take a ton of blows and keep moving. Can Inflict major pain. I don't really care for these two.
Dan- Total sweetness. Good luck using him though.
Cyclops-Seems to me like he is a cross between Dr. Doom and a Wolverine character.
Gambit-Good character to have to "keep away" and use with certain three character supers.
Wolverine/Sabertooth- Kinda powerful and quick. sometimes fun to use.
Strider/Jin- Fastest mofo's in the game. Super cool combos.
That Cactus guy and the alien/teethy thing that change shape are to me the most under rated characters in the game.
Spider-Man- I love his combos and juggle strings. To me he is a good charcter.
Captain America-Cyclops without the projectiles.
I love this game!
Especially since there are some many charters to cater to a players strong point. I have seen tons of different combinations of characters. Just practice untill you find the combo YOU like.

True, but when you're asking about the tiers in the game, the simple fact is alot of characters can't hang with the top 4 and the undercard guys. MvC2 is all about controlling space and mobility, if you ask me. Cable is a beast because of how easy he can punish ANYTHING you do, and for big damage as well. Storm, Sentinel, and Magneto can get around the screen very easily, due to speed and the nature of their various moves. Dr Doom's pink lasers don't do much damage, but in the air, they cover ALOT of space(Doom's best feature is his AA assist, though),Megaman can spam the screen with one button fireballs, Iron Man has a pretty easily set up infinite, Captain Commando's anti air assist is pretty buff, Strider has amazing lockdown ability with Doom backing him up, etc.
I use Hulk, and well, Hulk sucks ass. he can't move anywhere, he's just not quick enough to get around the top characters. Juggernaut is the same way, but when you do his power up glitch he gets a little better.
To be honest, I don't like MvC2. It's got too much stupid stuff in it for me to really enjoy playing it. Doesn't mean I don't know a few things about it :P
