My take away from this is that no matter what soul calibur he's in Zasalamel has the best super. Whether he's banishing you to the shadow realm in 4 or freezing you in time and snapping his fingers in 6 he's just got so much style with his super.

I remember how I never play any tutorials so all I knew was buttons, a few combos, and that tilting while pressing the buttons did different moves in this game. Also doing every throw animation i could. And I returned a few years later with a revolutionary idea of pressing two buttons at once, and it was a whole new world. I'm still about at that skill level honestly.

Amy is Raphael's adopted daughter, who became a vampire like him when she treated the wounds he received from Soul Edge, absorbing his corrupted blood. He named his sword after her when she saved his life when they first met.

[@Amesang]

It's been so long since I played _SCIV_ that I barely remember any of these… so I'm gonna default to Seong Mi-na 'cause she's my "heart and soul girl." =3 Although I do recall Taki's was cool. (Granted, I remember Critical Finishing an online opponent in the first round as Siegfried 'cause he just kept blocking _everything._ Damn.) *Eᴅɪᴛ:* Oh, God, I just remembered… when Raphael does his Critical Finish on Amy, doesn't he say, _"ah, sweet nectar?!"_ *Eᴅɪᴛ²:* Seeing Xianghua's Critical Finish again reminded me of the D&D archmage I had recreated with her style-performing a "full-round attack" with a mithral longsword and ending with a quickened _fireball_ modified into a 5-ft. diameter via "mastery of shaping" and dealing lightning damage via "mastery of elements." Granted when _V_ came out I swapped out Xianghua/Leixia's style with Viola's crystal ball…

Setsuka - one slash=8.5 Amy - Slash and multiple fast stabs=4 What?

[@Righteous_Rojin]

Amy's CF is Raphael's recycled B-throw from SC2. Not creative. Setsuka's CF is flashy and unique. It has impact. Makes you feel like that character was decisively sliced in half.

[@michaelpopowich5095]

Yeah Amy's can be a little underwhelming until you realize how much pain the opponent must be in not to mention how fast this critical finish is it takes about 2 seconds you might think that's a little too fast but then you count how many hits Amy lands 20 total and using physics she hit about 10 of these strikes in 1 second flat and depending on RNG you might hear a different voice line after instead of her saying "Pathetic..." She very rarely might say this instead: "Does it hurt?" Which is also used by Ivy in her Critical Finish as well so alongside giving you multiple puncture wounds including a stab between the eyes by saying those words she literally disrespects your corpse by insulting you after the final strike! Enough that in reality it is quite truly fatal and very disrespectful but still very brutal
