Oh blimey yeah, sorry! I'm glad Ninja's getting some infamy, he's long deserved a little more spotlight.

I've been messing around with Yaksha and Kunoichi a lot the past few days. Wasn't sold on some of the formers special moves (namely special movement). But never mind. Used correctly they are all good, even for time attack.BIL wrote:Raiden is the "playable boss" character in scale terms, but I think Yaksha looks even wilder with the wicked tentacles of ripping doom & XTREEM mobility.

There's some pretty fun time attack competition going on. The game is well balanced so characters tend to use their full kits in runs (at least for now). Ninja is by far the most popular character on the boards and everyone else is working hard to keep them away from the top
Also raiden cleaning up stage 1. Ninja and Raiden are seem the most straight forward to play for 1CC and time in a way. But the others may have more potential in the end.

Looking totally ED-209 From Hell in that Raiden replay! Love the preemptive grenade to the intruding Katana. I also dig how exploding fuel tanks seemingly aren't full-screen bombs any more - looks nastier and punchier, limiting the blast zone to the explosion itself.
Also lmao. Random stream:

Looks like he's not quite as vulnerable to crouch P now! Or maybe it's just bad execution, streamer was getting his ass handed to him.
