Gameplay Notes
Less combo friendly, having one of lowest damage outputs to most her MaxCancel combos (due to damage scaling from her DM) and she even lost her anti-air from her repertoire makes even the most diehard Mai fans cringe when they first tryout XIII Mai. It's almost easy to chalk her off as fan-service for the "No Mai, No buy" XII complainers.
Mai XIII however, really belongs to this growing list of revamped (and refreshing) characters such as Ralf, Chin, and even Kensou. Once mastered, she's really a deadly weapon
