5) For those people who love to be cheap...
1) The Game in itself
The game in itself as a whole is really pretty good, and very under-
advertised for it's entire package. I recommend this game highly, to any
fighter who ever wanted to change the characters of the game in a slight
detail, and to those who want to be perfectionists {or cheap fighters} against
someone else.
2) The Originality
Where else can you find a game with 2 different {and I mean different}
modes of play? A childish, item-based fighting {the RPG style part} and a
touchy, adult {not adult rated, just adult characters} technical fighting
mode? With 2 hidden characters in each mode, and PLENTY of possibilities of
this game, no wonder it's original. Or else I wouldn't be stressing the issue
now would I? One more thing...this is a game where you spend hours {with a
memory card} building up your character, just so you can play your {built up}
character, against his newbie character....that one will leave a mark :-)
3) The Character
This Guide is for the Child, item-based mode...where Shouryu looks like a
native American in a bright yellow suit. Ok, ok so he looks bad, but still...
a master at this character can be hard to beat {if you throw a few of those
cheap skills that everyone loves to do, but everyone else hates to be done to}
he's got throws, he's got power attacks, and a good first 2 special attacks.
Not to mention he has decent item capabilities. He's a good character for
those who aren't into the super-power, or super-quick fighting. He is a
character designed for people who sneak in a few hits at a time, and for those
people who just love to keep their opponent on the ground.
4) Basics
Ok, the basics...can't have a good character without basics... {ok you can,
but shhhh..no one knows that}
The most useful basic moves, and why, and how... {in no particular order}
{using default controller settings}
A) Toward+ B Rising Knee. Great if your in close and you want to grab a
few
extra hits once he/she is airborne. If someone's running towards you, hit `em
with this before they can block.
B) Run, Then Down + C-Down Lunging Sweep. If your running, often
opponent will be guarding up {or not at all} you can run, sweep him/her off
his/her feet then hit `em when they are down {little cheap thing}
C) Punch (x4) Then C-Down 4-hit punch combo then back breaker... useful
because even if they block the punches...they can't block the slam! :-)
5) For those People Who love to be cheap!
A) See the basics section...pretty much the whole thing.
B) Back Then Forward + C-down {and if they blocked} Forward Then Back + C-
Down Lunging attack, then Face-First Slam. The Slam only Works when your
close... and if they blocked the lunging attack, you'll be close enough! So
slam `em face first before they counter attack. {may take practice}
C) Hit `em when their down! When opponent is lying on the ground, just hit
toward + C-Down... Extra damage.
D) {When opponent is running} Forward + C-Down. Lunging Drop Kick.
Opponent won't have time to stop running and block. Then hit `em when their
down.
E) C-Left {After opponent blocked part of a combo} You'll do your regular
spinning attack, they'll probably block it...but it hurts `em anyway :-)
F) Up + C-Left {when opponent is standing} They won't have a chance to dodge
before doing multiple kick attack.
G) {If you hit their minds' eye spot} Up + C-left {quickly!} should hit it
before they recover
H) when opponent is doing a combo Back + C-Down Backflip, Should smash `em
in the head and knock `em to the ground.
I) When opponent jumps at you... {good timing here} Up + C-Down Up-
Backflip Should kick the opponent right out of the sky.
So a combination between all of `em should make you a cheap fighter that no
one will like because they can't hurt you very often.
Legal Stuff- If you want to use this, PLEASE, and I mean please, inform me and
give me some credit for writing this. Otherwise I don't mind, after all, I'm
not the one who made it up, I just use the game and write what I think.
