UKYO- Easy: Most of the time, he will just stand idle as you lay waste into him with your chain. *To prevent this, keep a safe distance from him and you will be fine. As you know by now, it can change the fate of the match very rapidly. The only reason heвЂ™s not a вЂњvery easyвЂќ character is that he can also land chain attacks on you. For the ball, as soon as it starts, give him the chain without hesitation. For the teleport, block and then give him the chain. If you see a puff of smoke, heвЂ™s either going to teleport above you, or roll at you in a ball. From here, he will walk right into your chain attack, or roll into it. The reason for this is that 9/10 times he will go for a weak punch attack at the beginning of the round, leaving him wide open. ALWAYS start the round by jumping toward him (diagonal up right position on the D-pad/analog stick) and using your bouncing attack. Just like Kyoshiro, if she starts evading, go for the bouncing attack.Д®ARTHQUAKE- Easy: As daunting as he may seem, heвЂ™s actually a cinch. DonвЂ™t get too close as her sword does have a decent reach. In this case, use the bouncing attack to end him.Д¬HARLOTTE- Easy: She will normally fall right into your chain.

If you face him at a higher level, he may jump when you use your chain. KYOSHIRO- Easy: He is a slow character with attacks that donвЂ™t deal much damage at all. When you see him vanish into a puff of smoke, block (hold the direction opposite to where you're facing ) and hit him with your chain. He will teleport and come down in front of you.

GALFORD- Very easy: His attacks are limited. You should be able to stun her with your chain and finish her off quickly. NOTE 2: This is all based around the aforementioned вЂEarthquake spamming method.вЂ™Д¬HAM CHAM- Very easy: A weak character. Easy=I beat them many times without strugglingвЂ¦ Very hard=I struggled to beat them nearly every time. NOTE 1: The difficulty is based on how many tries it took me to successfully beat a character. Here is a list of each opponent, and his/her difficulty, along with the strategies I used. This bounce attack was the ONLY way I was able to beat some of the higher level characters, as well as barely manage to finish off Mizuki (the final boss). If you find this happening, the safest thing to do is retreat (<, < or double tap the BACK direction to evade the enemy) and either A) let the timer run out IF you have more health than the AI or B) use Earthquake's 'bouncing attack' this is done by jumping and pressing Down+RB while in the air**Credit goes to Wanderer128 for this correction. When enemies start to jump over Earthquake's chain weapon attack, it is very easy to become trapped in a corner or worse, an enemy's POW combo. This is an excellent move because it has a long reach and deals significant damage even when itвЂ™s blocked.ДЄfter the first four fights, the AI just seems to ramp up ridiculously at times. Some people like >+LB, I find that it didnвЂ™t connect as easily and the opponent usually blocked it. When I refer to the вЂchainвЂ™ itвЂ™s herein referring to this method. The first four or so characters are easily defeated using the 'Earthquake spamming method' (DOWN on the D-pad/analog stick + LB + ). I found this achievement tough because of the AI getting harder and smarter the farther you get, not being able to lose a round ( you CANNOT save yourself from a loss with a second controller), and fighting the opponents in a random order each time: you canвЂ™t preordain the order a la Street Fighter II HFвЂ¦ I will share my personal experience and provide what little tips I can, as I feel there isn't a whole lot of information about this game. According to another achievement website, some gamers have earned this with relative ease others have had multiple trials without success. This is not (necessarily) an easy achievement. While this will help, the game (as with many 'old school' games) will still present a challenge.

To start: Make sure to set the game difficult to EASY.
