Kevin and Gato are the easiest to abuse. Both have solid combos that are easy as hell.

For kevin you have to get breaking his :qcf:+K and cancelling his :qcb:+P with :D: After that, it's just abusive. His supers can combo into eachother and out of the break move.

A really simple Kevin combo is jumping :C:, crouching :C:, :qcf::D:, break (:A:+:B:), :qcf::qcf::B:, :qcf::qcf::B:, :qcb::B: (charge for a second). It's just punch, punch, special, super, super, special. It will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and it's really easy to do.

Gato's :qcb:+K is amazing. If you're fast enough you can use either :A: or :C: to "cancel" it (not a real cancel, you just won't move off the ground). The :B: attack out of that move can be done twice in a row, then followed up with his K super really easily.

Both Gato and Kevin have really easy combos, and can gain meter extremely fast. By far my favorite characters.

But for some reason, I still thnk B. Jenet is the best in that game. She just has so much going for her.

When you get the timing down, and some practice in.. Try out grant. He has a great game against almost everyone.

She's great as a rush down or as a turtle.... Shoe FTW :buttrock:

Once you get her standing :C: to :A:+:C:+:down: feint cancel it's pretty easy to pull off some major damage...

Last night I was working on :qcf::D: (br) :up:,:down:,:D::D::D: to :qcf::qcf::B:/:D:... it's soooooo beastly.

there is a really, really good thread on SRK about MOTW that I can't recommend enough. it's helped me out a ton.

But honestly top to bottom the roster is very solid with Kevin on top... command Grab WFT!!!

I've played against you DJDelly with my Jenet late last year on 2DF. I think you were using Rock and Marco at the time.

I played as rock (poorly) for years. switched to B about a year ago and haven't really looked back.

Marco is fun, but I have a hell of a time breaking his dp...

LOL! I know what you mean on Marco's dp break. It's funny because that's the only break I can't do stand alone. You should play me some Jenet mirror matches one day. I won't disappoint.

from what I remember, his is kinda random for the break? I remember the timing being really off. it's the only one that's just not normal.

Watching the japanese players break it stand alone twice in a roll is amazing. I only break it off a meaty f+A or sD, dp+C. I guess you could consider his dp break as a just frame.

isn't the timing different for :B: & :D:, if you hit, and if you miss?
