finally someone uses kensou

Even though he was so interesting, what with rekkas and the revival of his older moves, he had so few ways to break down guards that a lot of people didn't use him. Hopefully with the addition of the throw in console, more people will explore what can be done with Kensou. I know I will check it out -

Being a Joe player from back in the day, I wish he had his old finishers to his Bakuretsuken > fairly safe overhead or kick after confirm. Was great being able to use the overhead after the minimum amount of punches as a surprise - I remember being able to super-cancel that in a few of the previous KOFs.

I agree that he's decent in XIII, but given the priority/range on his normals, it takes a darn good amount of skill to play him effectively. Have not seen anyone dominate consistently with him other than Haregoro... Also from what I've seen in console videos, what they did with Tiger Knee is just right IMO (quick with  or a bit more invincible with  ,but not crackingly so as we saw in XII).

I'm happy Mai was improved, but it REALLY would have been nice if she was given an additional special
Not something like an anti-air like she had in other renditions as that would totally change her play style, maybe a throw or a launcher with the fan.
