The King of Fighters 2003/Ash

Introduction

Ash Crimson is one of best characters excluding bosses of game. Although Ash crimson possesses a smaller move set he makes up for it with his interesting command normals that have some unique advantageous properties.

He also has great availability for tag combos that could become being extremely effective when paired with the right partners or more specifically (if nothing else) the other two members of his team; Shen Woo and Duo Lon.

His special moves work much like the mechanics of Leona's or M. Bison's special moves, requiring you to hold down a directional.

For most characters this would mean a lack in pressure game but with Ash, you can combo into the special moves using a chain of normals, command and then specials in chronological order.

This way you deal the most damage possible with out backing off, especially if your opponent is cornered.

If nothing else you can use his Vendemiaire in the corner much like you would with Chris' "Shishi wo Kamu Honoo" canceling from one of his close normals.
