A few thoughts/comments on the card: I wanted like 8 matches, all from 2010 (since this is a 2011 set). Having 2 finishers seems a bit strong on first glance, but he DID have a couple title runs in 2010, and was #29 in the PWI 500... that's pretty good, and I had to balance the lousy defense. His defense is lousy on purpose... he almost never no-sold or reverse anything in the matches I watched... most of the shifts in momentum for him where leap frogs off the ropes, or turnbuckle counters. I was debating on SOS being and add 1 instead of a (0), but since it's a move that goes straight into a pin, the (0) made sense to me. Not sure about the 'mongolian chops'... I'd never heard it called that before, but that's what wiki says. I would have just called them 'two handed chops' myself. Somehow watching a bunch of his matches in a row made me compare him to X-Pac. He sells, of course, but the offensive move set (other the the finishers) and style seem similar to me. Feel free to comment/suggest changes

I'd move Deathjump/Out of the Ring to the 1/2 slots on the card, and the ch C below into the turnbuckle, and make one of them a (c). Other than that, he's pretty much what he should be. Mind if I use him in the 2011 set?

Looks pretty good to me. He is not a guy I would be using (for now) but still good.

Moveset looks pretty good. You'd have to replace the into the ropes with "move-2 (ch A)" if you wanted to follow the official guidlines for chart and choice situations and make a few other minor move position tweaks, but it looks pretty accurate for Kofi to me.

So it's 2 choice charts and one (c) then? I can never remember. @ Switch: Definitely for the 2011 set I actually think since there's the special instruction for the turnbuckle move, it should stay were it is... having a potential pin high up on the lvl 2 offense seems weird to me. Glad the moveset is good.. that's the important part

So it's 2 choice charts and one (c) then? I can never remember. Glad the moveset is good.. that's the important part Two choice situations and three chart situations listed with all four charts playable (one via choice situation). It's suggested that two of the chart situations followed by a (c), according to official guidlines. Of course, I have seen just about every one of these broken on the official cards (Osk even put an "out of the ring" on level 2 offense on Hybrid, for instance) but those instances are rare. Moves look good and, like you wrote, that's important.

Got it. I think I'm gonna leave the (c) off of Kofi's DJ, though. He's a risk taker, and wouldn't NOT go up top, I think.
