Spiral is probably among the lesser-know supervillains of the X-Men. I think the reason why she and Psylocke were part of the 3 ladies picked for this game is because both of them are actually archenemies, and that Spiral had a big role of changing Psylocke's appearance in the comics.
Wielding six stretchy arms, a floaty jump, and teleportation powers, Spiral feels like a female Dhalsim in this game, which is likely another reason why Capcom picked her.
Spiral has A LOT of different specials. Two of her most well-known attacks in this game are the Dancing Swords and the Spiral Buster. After summoning those swords, you can input different normal attacks and commands to determine how Spiral launches those swords at her foe.
Her Spiral Buster makes her grab her opponent and toss them from way high up. This is both her normal punch grab, and an "Up, Down" command grab. If you time the command grab version right, you can buffer a Super Jump into it!
Spiral also has the ability to increase her attack power by flashing red, and increase her speed (or decrease her animation frames) by flashing white. She can also make herself invisible.
On the defensive, Spiral can teleport somewhere near her opponent, and will escape from throws this way, too. She can also switch places with her foe, even while they're in the middle of doing an attack or a taunt (see Juggernaut).
Her Super Attack is to smack the hell out of her opponent by transforming into every other character in the entire game with each attack. First, like Shuma-Gorath's Chaos Dimension in Marvel Super Heroes, Spiral makes herself flash in a rainbow, then you have to use a punch up close to unleash the All-Star asskicking! You'll see different moves and finishers from it depending on where it was activated while Spiral was standing, crouching, or jumping.

In the end, after defeating Magneto, Spiral explained that it was to save her broadcasting company, Mojo T.V. Magneto is not amused that he's about to lose so much he worked for just for that sport. Spiral then teleports out of the exploding Avalon and lets Magneto die in it.
She returns to Mojo World to report to her boss, Mojo, himself. After her experience with fighting the Earth's mutants, Spiral suggests a new T.V. series called "The Fall of Earth".
Mojo LOVES that idea, as they both believe that could run for 5 seasons! 5 seasons of mayhem, misery, and no mercy!

...Rita and Mojo here are pretty quirky about their evilness, aren't they?
