How do you get around the rock/paper/scissors character selection?
Player 1 picks his zoning scorpion while player 2 goes for rush down
version of scorpion, it will still be a bad match up for one of the
guys regardless.
Tools of the characters, match-up exp and lastly the skill level and
execution will be the deciding factor.
To me the understanding of a balance fighting is to make every
character the same...
