1) Better fighting game:
UMVC3. Besides Marvel vs. Capcom being my 2nd favorite game franchise (Street Fighter is #1), I like the variety in characters and fighting styles, the fast-paced gameplay, the ability to form a team of 3 (can't stress that enough), and the over-the-top visual style and combos.
2) Better representation of characters:
This I will give to Injustice. Because UMVC3 has so many characters, they have to balance it in a way that anyone could be anyone. Phoenix Wright is not beating Dormammu. In Injustice however, even when you're using your best character (say Deathstroke), there is some intimidation when you're facing a character that, from a comic standpoint, you would lose against, especially since they at least made the powerhouses a bit stronger than the normals (i.e., Bat Family). I especially think the moveset is very accurate for each character.
3) Which game do I personally prefer?
Well I kinda answered this already, but UMVC3. Although it lacks astoryline, there's still a lot of content and the gameplay is entertaining enough that I've wasted hours just in practice mode alone.
