Senkyutai is an issue here because 100 Kicks is beaten by it, and he can counter most jump ins with it as well as balloon. Use fireballs to keep him at bay, and crouching hard punch to counter his jump ins. | |||

Introduction
THE 'NOV.
Karnov is Data East's flagship character, and his powerful is *nearly* unmatched in FHD. His invincible balloon, high damage output and doable infinites make him a strong contender in this game. He is often thought to be unbeatable, but the more you play him you will recognize the weakness of Karnov....

Special Moves
Fireball
- Quarter Circle Forward + Punch
Slightly slow recovery, traverses full screen. Incorporate this into your ground game and be sure to try the slide glitch... Your opponent might have trouble blocking ;)
Fire Breath
- Forward, Forward + Any button
Better up close than Fireball, this attack stays out longer. Karnov also recovers pretty much right after the fire dissapates, so don't worry about getting punished. A solid way to help keep an opponent locked down, especially in the corner.
Super 100-Kick
- Charge Back, Forward + Kick
Balloon Attack
- (In Air)Forward, Down-Forward, Down, Down-Back, Back, Up-Forward + Punch
This is the one. Incredible invincibility, stays out forever. Experiment with this for crossup fun and lock down shenanigans. If you want to play Karnov you will need to be able to effectively use this move.
Super Move
Karnov does not have a super move

Vs. Mizoguchi Makoto:
Vs. Ray McDougal:
Do not brainlessly spam balloon. Ray has the edge here with Wheel Kick. You will also not be using close fireballs / flame breath for this same reason. Ray's fireball is incredibly fast, so use balloon to float over those. Just be careful to never enter wheel kick range. (Need more info)
