    Good job making a compilation. But i must say i dont agree with this idea of obscure... because to me a good part (maybe most) of these chars arent obscure, especially from new age (2010s) fgs. Meanwhile there are chars from old fgs, some that were even famous in the past, but just because they died long ago they must enter the zone of obscurity. Like anyone from Last Blade besides Hibiki, early Fatal Fury chars who were forgotten and never got in KoF, etc...

    You're supposed to use the invisibility with Twleve. It's extremely obvious the developers balanced Twelve's damage output around the ability to attack unseen. His grab is for facilitating the ability to become invisible unpunished.

    • @dirgenmeister4018
      @dirgenmeister4018 8 місяців тому +1

      invisibility doesnt last that long and youre giving up oki for the ability to push a very brief mixup. the problem with 12 having such low damage is that they have to win 10 times where a better character needs to only win 4 times to end the game. 12 having invisibility doesnt fix that problem

    • @yourdagan
      @yourdagan 8 місяців тому

      @@dirgenmeister4018 It lasts long enough to get several hits in.
      What Oki? People premise Twelve's bottom tiering on his ability to do little to nothing, especially at close range. He's clearly also designed to function well outside of close-range.
      You are in fact giving up the Invisibility mechanic he was built around for nigh worthless oki. It's not a "very brief mixup", it's your opponent being incapable of seeing what you're doing or where exactly you are for like 6 seconds. And you're trying to tell me that on any other character, this ability would be insignificant.
      But do just repeat the talking point of the clip, which completely omits that his taunt could even be a factor. I invite you to look up the player '12 Mania' on UA-cam for a demonstration of exactly how gamechanging his taunt can be / is for him.
