    As someone who loves Shovel Knight and the Ori games, I adore how these two play in Rivals since they feel like they were pulled right from the source material.

    my only problem with Wrastor is that i am very used to doing all my aerial attacks with my C stick (on GameCube controller)
    i have R set to jump and Z to shorthop, and i always use R+C stick to do aerials because i tend to misinput with control stick + a, so i always forget he has non-strongs in the air as well

    I'm no expert but if you are planning to pick a character that relies heavily on gimmicks like elliana or sylvanos pick them first, they just became harder to pick after you experience other characters, but beware that your fundamentals will be lacking with these characters as to compare with more fundamentals base characters like ranno or zetterburn.

      @@blyg9992 yeah, i guess that's why it's kinda stuck as a relatively small game. Hope it branches out to a bigger audience in the future tho because it's really the only other decent platform fighter other than smash
