Gai Tendo/Move List

Overview

Gai-sprite1

Gai is a Rushdown Character, specialising in close-range combos and pinpointing gaps in an opponent's defense with the sheer amount of options at his disposal, not unlike Ángel or Nelson. While his Special Moves are combo-based, two of his three Supers are installs, which buff his combo capabilities and make them easier to pull off.
