It's really easy to look like you know what you are doing with Karin, unless you're trying to use Kanzuki-Ryu Hokojutsu Seppo. Then you look like you're trying to bait / be a jackass
My wins (literally 5-6 whole matches out of 20 or so) have come down to:
1. Landing a Grurren Ken to Critical Art after being punished for using a V - Reversal ( yay for the same inputs!)
2. Executing my critical art as hard as I could after buffering the move from a V - Trigger
3. Simply catching an opening with a critical art
4. My opponent forgets to block and I mixed up a few moves here and there
5. Being on the right side of split second by a hair rock paper scissors move clash... twice
I'm super glad this game has V triggers. Gives me a moment to breath/think.
MOMENTUM IS REAL IN THIS GAME.
By the way - activating Karin's V trigger right after Birdies = possibly broken as hell. He seems completely open to
brutal punishment while breathing fire.
