This video has my most-liked recent Kula. Know why? Because she was a great anchor to keep the guys AWESOME ATHENA in play!
Really, It was great to finally see another Athena use HD mode, effective run away/zoning, and solid use of her swift, high-priority normals. I think you could even see the Athena-inspired playstyle coming through in the player's Kula, as they tended to use normals and solid zoning tools more than the average Kula player. His Kyo wasn't a slouch either; I doubt we've ever seen a XIII player use the
,
link/trap/pressure so effectively. ALso really good at maintaining lockdown with Kyo's jumping
.
Watching Athena VS Kim begin in such a cautions manner; They both acted as if the other was K' or Raiden! Like they knew one slip-up could spell the end. It was great to see the talents of lesser-seen characters respected like that. Really gave off the feeling that anyone in the game is a serious threat when used right.
