About Chase the Ace Tournament
Fast-action qualifier rounds are just one of the features that make this
tournament so competitive. The GM's (10 of them) will host a two-person room
each; every two players that can get into these rooms will fight one match where
the winner stays and the loser bounces out. If a player loses, they jump into
another room and can play as many times as they want in the four- hour span of
each tournament day. Players will move into the finals based on their
combined score or number of wins during the qualifying round. Top prizes include
a PlayStation 3 and a Xbox 360 for first and second place winners, and 10 "Kings
of the Hill" will receive Apple iPods.
About Jin
The Shisa, who uses a Tonfa, possesses an amped up version of the Fighter's
speed and vigorous combo attacks, bringing down decisive matches with combo hits
and fast moving attacks with efficiency.
Shisa's attacks are derived from combos and moving attacks that bring about
favorable judgments by driving out more enemies, allowing him to break through
defenses. By using burning skills deriving his many different forms and dodging,
the Shisa is able to restrain enemies from afar, infuse panic in them with his
attack timing, or make combo attacks after dodging. The Tonfa reinforces the
Fighter's close range attacks, speed, and destructive force, earning Shisa the
title of strongest class of Fighters.
By using his basic skills, the Shisa can combine punches and kicks, springing
low into the air after a fast punch and kick combo, turn back and hit a combo
attack, called the True Strike Dragon Tail. In the strengthened version, added
Chi gives Jin's combo more power and punch. The Power Rising consists of
delivering two big punches after delivering an upper cut, where a fiery tornado
appears, throwing an enemy into the air. With added strength, Jin's punches are
imbued with Chi to deliver a more devastating effect. For a level three basic
attack, after punching out the entire room with repeated fiery punches, the
Shisa's body erupts with Chi that glows! Players will need a mission scroll,
available in the shop, and must have Jin at least at level 20 in order to
complete these missions.
