dang this dude gave a shot out to lightning bolt? sick
The idea of making combos a bit easier actually reminds me of my experience with Skullgirls. I picked it up recently, went into Training Mode to try out a few characters, and discovered that it’s very easy to chain a couple lights into a medium or two and into a heavy. I’m very much a noob when it comes to fighting games, but I felt like I had discovered a really strong beginner’s combo all on my own.
