I think I am only a 4th or 5th dan. I only recently got a PS2 and have not put all that much time into the game[/quote]
I see man~ I liked to use him from VF2 to VF3...and found he is kinda too cool to be used since VF4 :lol: fighting with the PS2 AI's is a good practice, fighting in an acarde center would take you forever to rank up, and maybe just a minute to have you ranked down if you lose
just in case you are interested how the ranking system of VF4 Evo works:
from 10 kyu to 1 kyu, you will rank up no matter what as it is just depending on the 'experience points' you gain during the battles.
when you get to 1st dan, then you MUST defeat an oppenent who is also 1st dan in order to rank up to 2nd dan. (you will only rank down if you lost from a 1st dan oppenent). from 2nd dan to 3rd dan, you would need to defeat 2nd dan oppenents 2 times in a row to rank up to 3rd and so on... for say you are 8th dan now, and if you lose one battle after you were winning for say, 6 battles, then it will count from the beginning again. you need to win straight all the way through. If you are unlucky, lost again, then you will be ranked down immediately.
one good thing is that even you are defeated by a lower rank oppenent, you will never be ranked down, this also applies to higher rank oppenents that you are fighting. this is why it is insanely hard to get at a rank any higher than 6 dan in local japanese arcade centers...anyone gets over 10th dan, you could just stand behind watching instead of wasting your money on changelling him
