What's the best groove in Capcom vs. SNK 2 in your opinion? I really like the P-groove the most because you can charge up your super meter and use a level 3 super combo instantly; I think it's super effective. I like the K-groove too but it's only a limited time you can perform your super attack and you have less moves too. Other ones I like are the C-groove and N-groove. :)

Well, an when you think about it C-groove really is Capcom's traditional groove, A-groove is more like V-ISM of Street Fighter Alpha 3, P-groove is like Street Fighter 3:3rd Strike where you charge up to max once and you can unleash your ultimate attack. In SNK's side; S-groove is SNK's tradtional extra gauge found in KOF '95 or KOF '96, N-groove is the advanced gauge system like in King of Fighters '98, and K-groove is like Samurai Spirits (Shodown). I think grooves from both sides balance out pretty well overall. :) What I find hard to do in Capcom vs. SNK 2 is parry; it was so easy to do in Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike!!

So whats your favorite?? ;)

I like k-groove the best because it's very good for deflecting attacks, but unlike p-groove it's relatively simple to use. Much easier than p-groove anyway.

I also like a-groove 2nd best.

3rd is c-groove, because you can do some killer combos with that connecting two supers.

that's true, so you usually have to use agrresive characters or make good use of the dash technique. But usually in k-groove I use kyo, blanka, iori, or other aggresive people. You just need to switch up the play style a bit if you get cornered.

As far as aggressiveness go, I use Maki, Ken, Yun, or Chun-li for that... They can be quick, up close, and in-your-face when you want them to be... The roll and air block can be a great asset when jumping or moving close to the opponent... (Well, good thing Maki can run... good for confusing the enemy too)...

For long distance fights, I like the S-Groove... I use Athena, King, or Kyosuke for these kind of fights... (although 90% of the time, I use C-Groove... cuz of three levels of power... Plus, I love using Kyosuke's "Final Grade Remix" combo unto my enemies!)

N Groove all the way, baby. I pick K Groove only if I'm playing a R4, but still, no roll kinda kills that groove.

I like C, A, and N groove. K and P grooves are hard to get used to because if you mess up, you'll get severely punished. It requires the most time out of all the grooves I think. C is great for beginners...simple and effective. A is the funnest groove for me! I'm still getting used to it though. Once your in custom combo mode, the controls become extremely sensitive! N is good too. Although I've always had trouble doing "small jumps!" Even in KOF! Maybe it's because of the PS2 controller but I doubt it.

the Reset button groove.

obviously this thread is too dead to make such a pointless joke but... i did.

i kinda stick to c-groove, but p-groove is pretty useful too. i can't tell you much more because every time i think about that game i think of the huge waste of time/potential it is and it makes me sad. capcom done done it again.

end of obvious post,
