Dead-u Spike-u? I'll miss the loop being original, a fatal for 5.5k, and cool looking. R.I.P. Combo originality. At least it might not be a rediculously tight 66~5A follow up mid-screen.
Also, when playing a puppet character, it's usually important to learn resets, especially if the character's damage isn't necessarily the best. From what I've seen, you'll just have to be smarter when playing him.
