XV Broken/Omega Rugal: Difference between revisions
After some labbing I find rugal's meterless damage is good enough. So I re-evaluated some stuff here. |

* '''Slow''': While Rugal often has good options for punishing his opponents and keeping on the pressure, he's also very slow and can be punished by reactive opponents. He wants opponents to come to him, meaning if the opponent gets a life lead it can be difficult for Rugal to mount a comeback. | * '''Slow''': While Rugal often has good options for punishing his opponents and keeping on the pressure, he's also very slow and can be punished by reactive opponents.

One of the most legendary fighting game bosses of all time finally makes his return! Omega Rugal is a solid midrange defensive character with a suite of strong normals and specials. Rugal excels at the midrange poking game, with great normals like f.A, f.C, 2B, 2D and an incredible jump CD. He has generous hitconfirms windows off of 6B, cl.D and cl.C, which he can use to combo into a number of powerful special moves. If Rugal has meter, he can burn it to go into one of several wonderful EX special moves that give him ample opportunities for comboing midscreen and in the corner. His best feature is his defensive play- Rugal has two fireballs that cover different angles, a fullscreen laser super that can be used as a punish, a reflector for returning projectiles in fireball wars, and one of the best DPs in the game with an EX version that sends people completely fullscreen. And if people somehow get past all of that, he also has a rushing hitgrab super that drags his unfortunate foes all the way to the corner on hit. This combined with his poking normals can make him very hard to approach, especially if the Rugal player varies up their options consistently.

While Rugal's options are all pretty solid, they tend to be quite slow and committal, or downright weird. This makes him susceptible to being counterpoked quite a bit, and he will rqeuire a bit more labbing than other characters just to figure out what move to use where in what situation. This becomes worse when taking his confirms into consideration, as he requires himself to be very close in order to get off his highest damage combos and best pressure strings. However, that's where the downsides end. Overall, Rugal is a great pick for new players who want to learn KOF fundamentals while also being a great pick for veterans who seek a specialist character. His high reward off of solid neutral control, fantastic meter gain, and good pressure up close make him a viable pick for any position on any team. | ||

One of the most legendary fighting game bosses of all time finally makes his return! Omega Rugal is a solid midrange defensive character with a suite of strong normals and specials. Rugal excels at the midrange poking game, with great normals like f.A, f.C, 2B, 2D and an incredible jump CD. He has generous hitconfirms windows off of 6B, cl.D and cl.C, which he can use to combo into a number of powerful special moves. If Rugal has meter, he can burn it to go into one of several wonderful EX special moves that give him ample opportunities for comboing midscreen and in the corner. His best feature is his defensive play- Rugal has two fireballs that cover different angles, a fullscreen laser super that can be used as a punish, a reflector for returning projectiles in fireball wars, and one of the best DPs in the game with an EX version that sends people completely fullscreen. And if people somehow get past all of that, he also has a rushing hitgrab super that drags his unfortunate foes all the way to the corner on hit. This combined with his poking normals can make him very hard to approach, especially if the Rugal player varies up their options consistently. Rugal's two biggest weaknesses are speed and confirms.
