Other FAQs By Me VIII. Thanks IX. Copyright ======================== ==I. Who is Taiyo Kea?== ======================== You may know this ravaging Surfer dude as Manukea Mossman, one of the stupidest names ever. He is currently employed with AJPW and is the Master of the Hawaiian Smasher, which you probably know as 'TKO'. He is a great worker in the ring and always does his best to put on entertaining matches. He uses a vast array of kicks, and a fairly basic Grappling move list. Under his former guidance of Keiji Mutoh and Hiroshi Hase, he uses the Shinning Wizard and Northern Light Suplex to the best possible degree. Taiyo Kea is fairly young and has a very bright future main eventing in AJPW. His default in this game is begging you for a re-edit, which will be posted (and most of you will just skip to). ================================= ==II.

Strategy== ================ General Strategy ================ Kea, in real life, is a good mix of grappling and striking. He has a fairly decent rating in every category, so you be the judge on how you would like to distribute his attacks... Strikes ======= Kea is good kicker, he has a rating of 7. You should use his mid kick to keep distance and when they get in close, use his low kick. Sometimes you can trick them into walking into your Thrust kick. When you pick a dizzy opponent up from like an early A or B move, use his [S] flying kneel kick to get the crowd going and to score some extra hit points. For his running attacks, the [S] Flying DDT is extremely useful, you can sometimes just run at your opponent and do this, but don't do it to often or they will start countering it with one of there higher priority run counter moves. Grapples ======== Once again, Kea is a very solid wrestler, nearly all his grapples are C rated, and thus you have a fairly good chance of getting the moves off. His Finisher cannot critical, but that's ok, no moves critical in real life anyway (with the exception of D'Lo's Running Lyger Bomb on Droz). His default grapples are just begging for you to Re-Edit them though... I'll post them in the next section High Flying Moves ================= Taiyo Kea Doesn't really do any in a real life match, why should you do them in this game? Opponent Down Moves (Submissions and Opponent Down Strikes) =========================================================== Usually these moves are used to enhance the effectiveness of your finisher, your finisher in this case is the Hawaiian Smasher. This move effects the neck of your opponent, none of his down attacks do anything that effects the neck region, but use his soccer ball kick just to wear your opponent down, and use the Arrogant Pin right after the Hawaiian Smasher to obviously pin your opponent. Your best bet is to just pick your opponent up and do one of your standing [S] moves. =============== ==VI. Re-Edit== =============== Here is the most important thing of this FAQ, the Re-Edit First things first, go load Taiyo Kea default in the AJPW section (he is the guy with blonde hair, red tights and black leg guard shoes and red padding) Next, you will need these D/L moves: Kea Rush Shinning Wizard Corner Shinning Wizard High Speed Dragon Screw ========== Appearance ========== Stance: Strong (as far left as the choices go, also known as first choice) Size: Medium Head: 58 Chest: (M) Bare (first choice) Waist: (M) Short Tights (first choice) Upper Arm: (M) Elbow Pad (3rd Choice... 2 to the right from the first choice) Lower Arm: (M) Wrist Band + Elbow Pad (5th Choice, 4 to the right from the first choice) Hand: Bare (First Choice) Thigh: Bare (First Choice) Knees: Leg Guard Shoes (21st Choice, 20 to the right from the first choice) Feet: Leg Guard Shoes (8th choice, 7 to the right from the first choice) Make his hair black: (1,1,1) (2,2,2) (3,3,3) (6,6,6) His Elbow pads Black: (same as above) His wrist tape white His tights red His Leg Guard Shoes all red Good Job, now that looks like the current Taiyo Kea ================ Skills/Perimeter ================ (Optional) Special Skill: Stardom (the crowd cheers him along and his matches are fairly heated) Ascend Speed: Slow (he doesn't really go to the top rope) Parameter - Offense Parameter - Defence =================== =================== Punch.............5 Punch.............6 Kick..............8 Kick..............7 Suplex............5 Suplex............6 Submission........3 Submission........6 Stretch...........5 Stretch...........5 Power.............5 Flying............6 Instant Power.....7 Crush.............6 Arm Power.........6 Vs. Lariat........7 Technical.........6 Technical.........5 Rough.............5 Rough.............5 Ground............3 Ground............4 Basically the default was good, but Kea deserves a few more points here and there, the ones I changed were: Kick, Instant Power, Arm Power for offense and Submission, Vs Lariat for defense Point Total: 157 ===== Moves ===== I will only list the changes I made, all the rest can be found above: Running to Corner: Corner Shinning Wizard Standing Front Grapple A: High Speed Dragon Screw [S]Standing Front Grapple Up + B: Kea Rush (add on voice 2 also) [F]Standing Front Grapple Left/Right + B: Hawaiian Smasher (voice 2) [S]Standing Front Grapple Down + B: Shinning Wizard (voice 2) Standing Front Grapple A+B: Northern Light Suplex [S]Corner Grapple Left/Right + B: 2nd Rope Reverse Splash And there you have it, your up to date Taiyo Kea re-edit, and 100x better then the default. ============= ==VI.
