Hi Everyone,

I realised the other day that some people might not know about how the advance combos work, so I will be busy creating some combo guides! I have created 3 so far:

Byron Move List
Simon Move List
And Finally Vinssou Move List

More to come, but have fun with these, they do not list every combo because it would be a very long guide, but it gives you a lot of good moves and combos to check out and help you get past the 99 and their blocks!

Let me know what you think, and if you want more!

Thanks,

Jon
