The King of Fighters XIII/Vice
Gameplay Overview
Vice is a character that heavily relies on close range combat and grappling. She can quickly pull the opponent towards her with Deicide and follow-up with her command grab Gore Fest or just a standard combo in general. She can punish opponents that are in the middle of a evasive roll or just crouching with her Splash move. From a physical attacking stand point she can use her Mayhem attack to quickly knock opponents to the ground and still follow-up with Splash, but from a grappling POV she can use her air DM Overkill or her ground DM Negative Gain. Her Neo Max Awakening Blood is great for catching opponents off guard because of it's speed, and her HD combos revolve around her using Mayhem and Deicide. Due to her demanding play-style she'll feel welcome with any player that is looking for a bit of a challenge.

Special Moves
Deicide = hcf+K - Vice swipes her arm towards the ground really fast, when it connects with the opponent she retracts her arm to normal length pulling the opponent into close range for a possible follow-up combo.
- Both versions go half a screen's length although the D version she takes a step forward
- B version can be comboed into but the only follow up are her command throws
- D version cannot be combo into due to the slower start up but can comboed out of into A Mayhem, Gorefest or Negative Gain DM
(EX) = hcf+BD - Faster and has more invincible start-up.
- It can also pull opponents forward that are still in hit-stun or a juggled state otherwise known as an "anywhere juggle" move
- Can be followed up with a standing D
- Hit Detection: High/EX: Mid/Low
- Damage: 0
Gore Fest = hcb f+P - Vice grabs her opponent then rushes forward dragging them across the ground then throws them into the air.

- Hit Detection: Close/High
- Damage: 100/150
Mayhem = qcb+P - Vice does a charging shoulder tackle that knocks the opponent down on contact.

Desperation Moves

Neomax
Awakening Blood = qcb hcf+AC - Vice undresses her top revealing an Orochi birthmark on her right shoulder, she then suddenly disappears while laughing causing a giant snake-like eye to appear then a bloody snake coil flies across the screen quickly running the opponent over, it always appears from behind Vice making it extremely useful to use while cornered, it can also be used to punish jump-in
