Kirehashi
Now THIS is the sucky style of Reptile (not Crab! grin). While it does have a couple of low attacks they can be seen coming and his b+4 popup is incredibly slow. His three (well, sort of 4) combos aren't too effective, though 2, 2, can be used to knock the opponent down and then you can switch (that's the fastest combo in this style).
His impale, as with all, is only useful after the opponent performs a long recovering move sad.
Overall, I would give them, 5/10 or 2.5/5 if they're all out of five now grin.

Greetings all,

Nice to see it's been updated ;). You're welcome by the way, I like doing things like these grin.

Anyway, here we go!

* Hung gar: 3,70 (good mixes but a bit slow, saved by its branches)
* Crab: 3,95 (fast and decent but linear, hard to be creative with this style)
* Kirehashi: 4,80 (sorry gotta disagree Timsmk ;) - manic and powerful, short lag time)
* Shuai shiao: 3,65 (straightforward and decent but lacks diversity)
* Wrestling: 4,00 (has some nasty tricks up its sleeve but a little slow)
* Ninjitsu: 2,90 (weak and uncreative, saved by its relative speed and a decent brancher)
* Sambo: 3,30 (okay in speed and power but is lacking in several departments, frustratingly difficult to master for what it's worth)
* Pulse blade: 3,10 (only good for its range and it's okay pop-up attack)
* Leopard: 3,95 (many fast attacks, more low hitters would have made it better)
* Fu jow pai: 4,45 (decent overall but made great by its quick neijin)
* Kama: 4,25 (tricky, good mid hitters)
* Oni: 3,00 (okay but is made rather superfluous by the very similar Netherealm)
* Iron club: 2,95 (saved by its power)
* Eagle claw: 4,40 (is okay, actually, in spite of what others think; good combo options once her pop-up connects)
* Ba gua: 2,45 (possibly the worst unarmed style in the game)
* Steel fans: 4,85 (very good style when used correctly, one of the only armed styles which should be used as main style)
* Mantis: 4,75 (overall good, jack of all trades, master in none)
* Shaolin fist: 4,60 (makes a powerful impression)
* Broadsword: 4,60 (elegant and surprising but can be broken easily)
* Straight sword: 4,75 (very useful and quick armed style)

I believe I had them all now :).

Table is now complete and updated!
VainQueur thank you ever so much for your input!
you will be recognised in my website.
My style list is complete, when i get time, i'll print it out and use it for my website, i will be rounding the numbers off, anything like 4.5 will get a 5 etc.
my website wont be complete for a while, but if you guys continue to rate a style, i will update the table accordingly.

You're very welcome :).

I have a small suggestion though. Wouldn't it be more accurate to keep the scores as 4,4 or 4,2 instead of rounding them? A score out of 5 is pretty averaged out already.

Just a suggestion though, do with it what you like!

Peace,

Sonya's Kenpo is actually just as useful as Tae Kwon Do when playing as her, imo! The sweep, the axe kick and the back kick she does are brilliant and are excellent when fighting the com! I give the style a 4. I can't remeber if I did Kenpo before, if I did, this is my final score for it!

Sorry its been so long Nindz, been meaning to do more reviews but as you know I haven't been playing MKDA much!

I agree. Kenpo is just as good and powerfull. I always use it to attack first and win. The kicks U talked about are exelent attacks, it gives u a lot of chances to strike with other combos.

Kenpo is, imo, *very* punishable. TKD is much better because it has quick low attacks and better mixups.
