Skullgirls and mastering the art of defense | Joystiq

These tutorial systems have been serviceable in the past -- for example, BlazBlue: Continuum Shift had a good tutorial system that taught players how to use each character -- but no tutorial system has better illustrated how to effectively master the genre. In BlazBlue, if you've never touched a 2D fighter, you're out of luck. If you've never devoted serious time to a 2D fighting game before, Skullgirls will teach you how to crawl, walk, then dominate your opponents. It wants to train you to be a master and I'm all for that.
