Chillin' with Krillin: Krillin General Discussion

I hope I'm not the only person on TYM playing Krillin, because I think he's fun as hell. Just some stuff I noticed that didn't seem to get a lot of pre-release coverage:

Destructo Disk does the most chip damage out of anything in the game from what I've seen. 5 disks just melt through a hit bar, blocking or not.

You can control his ki blast by hitting the ki button again. So you hit it again mid flight and it will curve at that point. Don't hit anything for a straight blast.

He is the baldest character in the cast. He beats out Nappa because he doesn't have any facial hair.

So let's talk Krillin. Anyone have a good assist pairing with him? If anyone on the cast has a low for their assist, that could give you some hella dirt off of his afterimage fake-out

So something neat I noticed last night. You can curve a ki blast right after the first orb hits. So you can get a hit to secure your chance to get in and the 2nd orb will come in to make sure you stay safe on block or can get an extra hit in a combo to do things you couldn't otherwise. Not me, but here's a combo vid that utilizes some of that

Krillin is the light. I'm glad there are people here who have embraced it.

although I have a buns team with Krillin/Trunks/Teen Gohan, Krillin has been invaluable in finishing off opponents and giving me broke healing.

VERY SICK TECH! Krillin is an interesting character with more control than what we all thought. And his jump medium is 2 hits like Piccolo's which has potential to do some damage! What other teammates would go good with Mr. Krill da Trill ?Question mark?

Right now, I'm eyeing 18 (she has a special with him, they must have intended for them to work together) and maybe Kid Buu for his assist. The rock assist has uses, but I don't see Krillin as much other than a point character. I'm also a giant scrub, so take that with a grain of salt
