---1. Strength---
Rudolf is one of the fastest characters in the game. he has a high attack speed, is a medium range attacker and has lots of skills. He is the only character that can mirror image into other characters and so he can use their combos. Rudolf also has the ability to clone himself and his duplicates can help him fight.
---2. Advantage Position---
Rudolf is best used in a left-right position. His ninja-stars can be aimed slightly up and down along the z-axis. try not to stand in an up-down position. This prevents him from attacking the opponent. If the opponent is in an up-down position with u, at the right position, ^JA can hit him and he would go into Dance-of-pain.
---3. Recommended Combo---
Rudolf doesn't have many combos on his own, and it is recommended that you transform and use the other characters' combos.
[3.1] ninja star rain + transform. {50% hp give-or-take}
When u're at the correct distance,
AAA, (pause) D>A, * walk > a small bit AA, (i)/(ii)
(i) G, AAAADJA
(ii) A {super punch}
(*) if the character moves away/presses D here, just continue to hit him with the ninja stars till he falls down.
[3.2]4x4 star transformation hp}
When you and the enemy are both touching the z-axis (either top or bottom), this combo is the best. Use when you are at about deep's sword's hitting range or you could walk nearer to the enemy when he is in DoP
AAA, #(pause until he is just almost out of DoP) D>AAAA, A, G AAAADJA
The D>A stars don't have to be controlled towards the enemy. it is possible to make all 5 stars hit him but it has a high chance of making the enemy fall. Best of rudolf's transforming combos.
[3.3] Using weapons
A, (go to # (above))
Rudolf should only use weapons if the player wants to use melee attacks
[3.4] All other character combos when he is transformed
---4. Technique---
[4.1] Transforming Dragon-Punch
After grabbing Davis, AAAADJAD^A*
Preview:
This only works with Davis. I've tried all other characters but it's not possible to hit them when u transform into them.
(*) If Davis flips back over here, hit him with DVAJA or DVAD^A If you have enough mp.
[4.2] Attack of the clones.
After you are able to transform into someone, and create clones, when your clones are present and u press DJA, your clones will also transform into that character. This is useful coz the computer can use other character's to deal damage better than rudolf.
[4.3] Invisible mirror-image.
When you can transform into someone, pressing D^J,DJA will let you be the other character while you're still invisible for that moment. This is very useful if u can transform into Woody as you can do D^J, DJA, D^JD>J. This is making yourself invisible, transforming into Woody, teleporting next to your enemy then tiger dashing.
[4.4] Distractions.
Your clones can be good distractions to the enemy coz he'll have to deal with them too if they are spawned successfully. Only use them if you have low hp and are far away from the enemy coz if u use it when u have a lot of hp, you wouldn't be ale to recharge your mp fast enough and would run out of it to throw your ninnja stars. And if you use it near your enemy he'll hit you when u're spawning them.
---5. Weaknesses---
[5.1]
Rudolf is very slow when doing D^J and DVJ and can easily be hit while doing it.
[5.2]
Rudolf's clones only have 10HP and can be easily killed with 1 hit.
[5.3]
If you don't let Rudolf transform into you, he is very weak and can't do good combos.
---6. Not Recommended---
D^J and DVJ unless you really need to and have low mp. Also, don't try to lure people to the edge of the z-axis to do that 4x4 star stransformation.
