We’re back to normal battles, and today marks the beginning of X-Men week, where I’ll be fighting members of the X-Men. And who better to start off with than the man who’s the best there is at what he does, Wolverine, and not just one Wolverine, two Wolverines. This also marks the debut of the EOF screenpack, which I'll be using from now on.
In Match 1, I’ll be fighting Bone Claw Wolverine, the version of Wolverine without his adamantium skin, made by Vyn. He’s a pretty decent challenge, as his tendency to spam the berserker barrage and tornado claw will lock you in the corner, but these moves are quite slow, leaving him open for attacks from Chun-Li, and I had to time them in order to get some damage off.

In Match 2, I fight Wolvenom, who is a version of Wolverine fused with a symbiote. This version is made by Dark Talbain and Cray with an AI Patch from Colosse. He’s got a couple of tricks up his sleeve, such as a counter move, quick attacks and specials that can catch you off guard if you’re not careful. With Orie, I had to catch him off guard and put the pressure on him.

Match 3 is a doubles match, where I play as Orie and fight alongside Chun-Li in fighting both Wolverines. Both Wolverines can chain you in between their moves and cause a lot of damage. I had to catch these two in between their attacks and cause some damage to the two of them.
