4.

+ Great character models.
+ Tower of the Lost Souls is fun, but infuriating.

- Kilik still broken
-Apprentice also broken

- Laggy online
- Not very revolutionary, just evolutionary
- Limited movesets
- Character customization sucks
- Install required, otherwise each match takes like 10 seconds to load
- Ivy's boobs aren't big enough

How are they broken? neither are top tier, apprentice is one of the worst character in the game actually. The only reason Kilik is consider cheap is because the online is so laggy that he gets an unfair advantage due to his rang. Thats not his fault thats poor netcoding.

Kiliks range + combos can be spammed constantly (just a quick google brings up plenty of results). The apprentice shouldn't have been added in because 1.) Doesnt fit the theme and 2.) his force attacks can be spammed, and he's a lot faster than a lot of characters, making playing against him a bitch.

I hated this one. SC2 was a solid 8, this is just trash.

Spamming is cheap but its only fustration for casual player that haven't dig deeper into the strats. Kilik is mid tier because while he is a excellent fighter, all his moves are predictable and telegraphed. He is not even in the same league as Tier 1 characters like Sophi & Cassi or Hilde 'the ring out queen'.

And as for Apprentice, yes I agree that he doesn't fit the theme, but he is by no ways broken. He is in fact one of the worst character in the game with virtually no mixup game and those horrible limitation due to force power recharge. The only one who is more of a Joke character than him is Yoda (and to a lesser extend Vader), who is even more pathetically weak.

edit: Btw, I loved SC2 as well, it was my favourite fighting game of the PS2 era and gave me lots of fond memory. Even with my preference for it though, I know that SC4 is a more balanced fighter. SC2's extra character were REALLY broken with Necro leading the pack as an almost godly frame advantage whore and Talim back then could make some fight virtually impossible.
