[@WackyModder84]

The General is known far-and-wide as The Hardest Fighting Game Boss to date for a reason. This dude has a fireball as big as himself, both a normal one AND a triple one that goes in 3 directions which blocks you from jumping; Which btw, his fireballs also ABSORB projectiles. A slide-kick that hits 3 times and is safe on block. Normals have insane priority with almost no delay whatsoever. And a teleport that's almost instantaneous with no recovery; One that he often follows up with a grab immediately afterwards. There is absolutely no screwing around with The General.

It's not hardest but broken. From criminal developer who didn't know how to make fighting game or porposely make it so to steal your money. If such developer or any supporting console/game store did that today. They would get sue and such game wouldn't be remembered as legendary game like this.

Here's a thought.. most people use wulong to beat him.. just dp move.. you're not trying to hit him with the dp move.. but as soon as you land from the dp move, you do a low sweep.. 9 times out of 10, general will just stand there as you miss and will still be standing as you go for the low sweep..

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

There's a strict AI flaw with every character. But WuLong and Gekkou have the easiest time exploiting him. That being said, even Parace L'Sia can be exploited. And considering the lack of comeback mechanics and choices you have in Kaiser Knuckle makes it harder than Parace. But she is a close 2nd I think or End of Deathbringer and maybe Chizuru from Aquapazza

lool great video. So, same suggestion as before, Parace L'sia from Arcana Heart 3 Love Max. She's Trial 10 in trial mode or the final boss of Score Attack. I think Trial Mode is harder. Even as someone who competes in that game, it's like...luck basically. There's one way I know of to cheese it with a certain character/arcana combo but I don't think it's something you'll find on accident and you're locked out of changing characters in trial mode

[@rna151]

That slide's an interesting move. It's a knockdown on hit but on block it can keep hitting you for at least three times. Ie, the extra hits are pretty much only there to punish you if you think that, just maybe, you can punish the slide.
