Samurai Shodown IV
« on: April 14, 2014, 11:08:18 AM »
Let's get a discussion going about Samurai Shodown IV! Even though it seems to be the game in the series with the least amount of exposure and representation, it somehow manages to be one of (if not the best) in the entire franchise. You know the drill; general strategies, character strategies/match-ups, match, and tournament footage all belong here. Let's show some love for SSIV, people!

Aesthetically, I think it's the best SS. I think it edges out the other games to be my favorite. It's been a while since I've played it, but my mains are still Kazuki, Galford, Charlotte, and occasionally Shizumaru and Genjuro.

Care to share some info/strategies for Shizamaru and Genjuro? Also, if there's a giant compendium of knowledge laying around on the internet somewhere for this game that I'm not aware of, please don't refrain from sharing. I main Genjuro myself, but I'm not particularly good considering I don't have anyone who enjoys the game as much as I do to play with.
