[Char] Keny (Levi Version)

[rewlf2]

Introduction
Keny is a character originating from LeoSilva's creation: LF2 Victory, as a Wind-based fighter who excels in teleporting attacks.

It has been a long time since I remade characters and I'm starting to make more complicated ones by mixing multiple features. Keny fuses heavy weapon armor and SSID together to create a "fair" melee boss.

The next boss I plan to create may use cpoint psuedo state and light weapon techniques together, which in gameplay his fighting ability is enahnced by weapons.

Description
Keny is a melee boss character. He uses a mixture of tanking, sneaking and strong projectiles to bombard enemies. He also has a no-cost projectile move and exceptional defense. He uses wind-based attacks, including highly shifting strafe (Fight), quick blasts and stationary whirlwinds.

However, he is notable to have gaps in attacking periods which means careful fighting strategy is very beneficial in fighting him. It is possible to kite him but generally a hero character cannot overwhelm him with projectiles easily, unless he resorts to using Laden technique.

Updates
v2 (7 Apr 2019):
Injured will no longer allow aerial defend
Reduced mp cost from 250 to 200
Reduced shield from 250 to 200

Current issues:
Just after landing after aerial injury or finishing a jump attack, pressing key immediately will go into protection state briefly
Pressing key immediately after landing in protection mode will go into non-protection mode briefly

Traits

Destroyer
Keny destroys heavy weapons he attacks, and flying weapons if timed correctly.

Single-sided Infinite Defense (SSID)
When Keny is standing, walking, running or defending, he can block blows from the front indefinitely unless they are unblockable.

Each extra block consumes 10% MP, if he runs out of MP he enters vulnerable state for 1.5s, he can be grabbed in the duration.

Uninterruptable
Keny's actions are unhindered by any incoming attacks in Protection mode because damage is absorbed by his shield.

Looks fun! I'll try it when I have time. Maybe the following applies only to the video and not to the actual game, but may I suggest smoothening up the standing?
