Roo's unlockable moves are terrible.

Maybe I'm missing something, but they just seem straight up awful to me. No combo potential, no OTGs, no damage. They're straight downgrades to his default moveset.

He has low dmg but truly i smell a good combo potential.
When i tried to unlock him by doing the first stage, i litterally blocked the first boss with 2-3 moves.
And he got an OTG btw. ( -> -> X)

HAHA are you kidding me i just played with him. His gatling kick and spinning kick are OP as hell. Tbh ALL the characters are OP at this point. This game, you can literally just spam your way through. Expect some major nerfs soon.

his default moveset is objectively better than those moves though. He has WAY higher damage output, more invincibility, bigger combos. His unlockable moves are absolutely awful.

What awfull?? Wth are you talking about.
His handbrake (default) does no hit/dmg on its first frames. You also move through them like a ghost. How is that better than gatling kick lol at least you can group/corner enemies with gatlingkick.
I think every character has 1 or more new moves that arent good enough for your liking. Doesnt mean it cant be used for a good combo.
What do you think about Estel? Too short range? Difficult to combo? Well i was doing good with Estel on survival having great fun
I think most people complain too fast. The dlc just got out lol
You didnt even knew about Roo 24 hours ago. You cant play with the moves so its the characters to blame and not you right...

Gatling kick has less range and less combo potential than his original blitz move. Not to mention his original Blitz Move picks up off the ground, the kicks do not.

There is nothing about his alternative moves that make them worth using over his original moves. Everything is better about the originals.

Also yes, I know he's got an OTG. He has multiple. I never said he didn't. His UNLOCKABLE moves don't.

This post is purely about his alternate moves. His base moveset is very good and strong with a lot of combo potential, damage, etc. Just the alternatives you can unlock suck in comparison.

But its actually with every character tbh. They all have 1 or few moves that doesnt really work well. Especially with Cherry, imo i think her default moveset is just perfect.

Actually, you can see the OPness more in Mania (+) than everywhere else.

Imo, Mania is like a giant punching ball area.
Mania+ is kinda like a faster giant punching ball area.
(Sor3 'hardest difficulty looked like Mania + and damned it was hard and fun xD)

So far I've found Blaze 4 having really good alternative moves, aside the replacement for her defensive special her alternate blitz, forward special, and aerial special are really good and give a lot of damage potential and crowd control. But yeah for the rest of the cast I've only seen myself replacing 1 move usually with the alternate move set, their base move set for most of the characters is more well rounded.

I can't wait to see Roo Mania+ perfect playthroughs.
