________
Strength-- Strength is measured at how fast the character takes down the Red
Bar not the life meter, the Red Bar is the Bar behind the life meter that often
shows how much recoverable life the opponent has left.

_______
Defense-- Defense is measured at how fast the character's Red Bar does down,
not by the Life meter. The quicker the drop of the Red Bar the lower the
defense of the character.

_____
Speed-- Speed is measured how fast the player moves, moves back, dashes, and
dashes back. Wolverine quite possibly has the fastest dash in the game while he
is in berserker mode, simply because Wolverine's dash can reach all the way to
the end of the screen before Blackheart's dash can even reach to the helf of
the screen.


You can measure the defense and strength parts for yourself, not by training
mode because in training mode they only show how much damage you do and you
will notice that Spider Man does the same amount of damage to Ryu as to
Zangief. Play versus mode and have both characters put their strength down to 1
star, pick any two characters you like and combo the crap out of each
character, you should see who still has the most and least amount of red bar.
