[Char] Nino (Levi version)

[rewlf2]

Introduction
Nino is one of the characters in the abandoned project LF2 extended.

I found out Nino is in good sprite condition. I am not good at fine spriting but proficient in data changing and makeshift stuff, so I did a quick patch on the data and missing sprite links of Nino and publish him here as a balanced hero character.


Description
This version of Nino is based on the last version published in the LF2 extended forum,
with five moves: Strafe, Flip attack, Energy Blast, Slide kick and Big blast.

Since the data was not complete with bad combo chaining and Big Blast being hard to use (D>AD very quickly), I did a review on his combos, nerfed his damage for more versatility and fixed hid graphic and weapon positions. The result is a fast melee fighter who relies on short combos and antiflips to deal massive damage, but bears risk to use.

[Memento]

I tested the character and I think there is room for improvement. He isn't complete to me yet because it lacks in new quality sprites and animation improvements, compared to the latest version of LF2 extended's Nino. The data could use some work, mainly the ITR and specific character characteristics. Nino is a combo specialist, which doesn't really show in this version of Nino, yet.

XFX and Memento are one and the same person, by the way Me haha

[Sevendogs]

Yea right.This version of nino is not as versatile and flexible as the previous one.

Be sure to keep in mind that this character is a close combatant.where mixing combos and adding other moves makes him a great fighter.

[rewlf2]

Will do.
I need to look at his older versions for which combos he may do and also to avoid him being another Woody though.
