>>38985930In terms of fighting games, it really doesn't add anything but crutches to combat weaknesses.
This is supposed to be tekken skinned as pokemon, the fighters themselves should be balanced around their own strengths and weaknesses, not around what a support class can cover them up for. If they wanted a support mechanic they could've at least took the skullgirls route and allow a binded support move from another fighter. Would add even more depth and choice to the game while still balancing around the fighter's moves themselves.
