Introduction
That missionary over there is Leopold Goenitz, a well known character from the KoF series(With his first appearance being on the '96 edition). Why is he well known? I'll just say one thing. Koko desu ka? Never heard of it? Play KoF '96, he is in there to say that "beautiful" thing for you. He is a cool character here, with decent moves(And many nerfs, obviously). Now for his pros and cons.
Goenitz's Good and Bad Things
Good Things:
- He is fun to play;
- Had good and damaging Normals for poking;
- Still can do the Tornado Spam thing(Koko Desu Ka?), which are great for his keepaway game;
- The tornados can negate normal and Super projectiles;
- Can juggle the opponent on the corner with his DP anti-air;
- Has a Super Grab;
- Can teleport and had faster startup than KoF '96;
- His Exceed(s) looks safe to use;
- His Exceed(s) has startup invincibility(And has two versions, see below);
- One of the Exceed's versions will act as an overhead.
Bad Things:
- He is a little hard to master;
- Doesn't have Command Moves(They could help him on combos);
- Got many nerfs on moves startup in general(He was a boss);
- The Tornados can be unsafe on block at short distance;
- Doesn't have many anti air options;
- He isn't hard to counter on air;
- Doesn't have many combo options;
- Has poor MAXIMUM Mode strategies/combos;
- Has low stamina (its a zoning and rushdown character of course).
How to select Goenitz
Oh, can't select him? No worries. Just do these inputs below while you're on the character select screen, and you'll be fine.
(While Holding Start) Down(3x), Right, Down, Left(3x)
Again, no worries. Do these before the timer reaches zero(0). If you want to use him online, you can download Fightcade, there is a bootleg that lets you use the sub-bosses without cheats(That includes Goenitz).
