Learn about the 'Moves' stat in Dead or Alive 5 Last Round! See how characters like Ayane and Brad Wong excel with their diverse move sets. A guide for new players.
Alright, let's talk about the 'Moves' stat in Dead or Alive 5 Last Round. Think of this as a measure of how many special moves and unique maneuvers a character has in their arsenal. A higher score here means they've got a lot of tricks up their sleeve to confuse and outsmart opponents. For example, you'll see characters like Ayane and Brad Wong scoring a perfect 5/5 in Moves. This means they're packed with a wide variety of attacks and techniques that can really keep opponents guessing. If you like having lots of options and enjoy a more complex, adaptable playstyle, characters with high 'Moves' stats might be right up your alley. On the flip side, characters with lower 'Moves' scores might rely more on fundamental strikes, throws, or holds. That doesn't make them weaker, just different! It means you'll need to master their core game plan to be effective. Here's a quick look at how some characters stack up in the _Dead or Alive 5_ and _Dead or Alive 5+_ games: | Character | Strike | Throw | Hold | Power | Speed | Moves | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| |
