Lau Chan Personal Opinion

Seriously, if you have never played this game before or any in the series, then this is the guy that you have to play as! There's nothing that he can't do! He's a complete beginner's dream and an expert's godsend. Lau can destroy you flat out in like 2 well-placed combos along with one or two big strikes to end a round. He makes quick work of opponents with lightning-fast strikes and quick long-hitting combos, to say the least. He has a real simple and quick learning curve which beginners will love, and his advanced tactics are easy and a blessing, turning people into experts in no time flat. His strength is flawlessly big, and his speed just doesn't seem natural for a character of stature. He seems to have an answer for any situation, no matter what it is. If you use a big pressure offense game, then he can use it with the blistering combos. If your thing is countering people into annoyance, then he has the means of putting up a defense and counter-striking the hell out of your opponents 'til they cry about your cheesiness. He can be used to turtle fight, he can be used to pressure offense, hell he can even be used to just stand there and look friggin' cool with! There isn't much that you can say about him that's bad. If you learn how to use his arsenal properly, you can use a deadly mix-up game from high to low attacks. Choose Lau if this is your first time playing the game so you can get the hang of this game in no time flat. In the hands of an expert, Lau can be deadly. I've seen the computer and even human players chain together attacks and combos.
