Let’s see whose fire burns hotter
After watching this I just thought what if he had a move that goes forward in time. Like skip 5 seconds in the timer so that the player wins via time out, lol.
Stupid and unbalaced by sounds funny

All too easy...

UltraDavid talks about it here. Lost Time & Spare Time. 2 slot move. If theres less than 30 seconds on the clock it goes to 10 seconds so they still have a short amount of time to come back and its not an instant win if you have life lead but still very nutty. Geras is so sick

ball roll enjoyer.
Great info. I've seen these matches on K&M's breakdowns and your gameplay inspires me to give this character a go at some point. Good stuff.

Its Game Over, Man
I initially had no interest in using Geras, but I might have to give that a second thought now.

I wonder what his frame data is for when he cancels a string using Stepping It Back. Hopefully it's enough to warrant its meter cost.

Nice write up, I have no plans on using Geras but he's a cool character for sure. I can tell he's going to be one of those annoying characters to deal with in the right hands.
