1. Why play Blanka?
-------------------
Blanka isn't the #1 top tier "on paper" character in EX2,
but as in most fighting games any character can be deadly depending
on who's behind the controller. Another reason to play Blanka is for
the nostalgia. He was in the entire SF2 series and many people played
him. So playing him in EX2 continues that saga.
You might also want to play him because, with a few exceptions,
is mostly a charge character and may be easier to play then a fireball
motion based character such as Ryu or Kairi.

Special Move Comments

Blanka Ball
-----------

This is Blanka's signature move. It comes out pretty fast, does
average damage, but all 3 versions can be countered by your opponent before
it
either hits them or they block it. An interesting property of the Blanka
Ball
is that if you start the Blanka Ball and your opponent gets up, if the
"back"
of the ball is near the opponents front side, they will get hit by the ball
resulting in a "cross up" Blanka Ball. Unfortunately Blanka remains turned
around when he lands and your opponent can do what they want with you.

Jab Blanka Ball: Travels a short distance.The damage is low and is only
useful in tricking
your opponent into getting caught in a Bite or charging your super meter
from far away. If
blocked, the recovery is very short.

Strong Blanka Ball: Has the same stipulations as the jab version but
travels farther and
takes a longer time to recover.

Fierce Blanka Ball: Travels just short of the entire length of the screen.
Useful in
getting close to your opponent quickly if you're on the other side of the
screen. If you've
knocked down your opponent or they are in the air and they aren't in the
corner, you can use
this version to get on the other side of them. This is also the version that
you will want
to use in combos.
