< Gargoyle >

Creator .........: Marcus Knight
Creation Date ...: March 16, 2068
Special Abilities: Diving Claw, Flying Talon, Wing Charge


  Manual:

Built for reconnaissance missions by the famous designer Marcus Knight, the Gargoyle's power is in its titanium wings. Not only is this robot tough enough to leave and reenter the Earth's atmosphere, but it is dexterous enough to fly well below any conventional RADAR sensors. It has built-in sensor countermeasures, making it a company favorite.

If you ever DO spot a Gargoyle, it is certainly built to defend itself. Designed from a titanium alloy, its hollow skeletal structure is both lightweight and strong. It's most used attack is to grab a victim, fly it high into the air, and either slam it against the ground or into another object. Sharp talons, feet, and beak provide a secondary defense not to be taken lightly.


  Matts:

The Gargoyle is really one of my favorite all around 'bots to use. This may be because of his unique appearance, differing from anything in all other fighting game out there. Or it may be because all of its moves are easy to learn and no problem to get off in a pinch. But whatever the reason, the Gargoyle is one of the easiest 'bots to win against the computer with, and one of the hardest to beat when controlled by a quick-fingered friend. Combining a mixture of speed and a great defensive Special Move(Flying Talon), this 'bot is one of the most fun to use in either One Player, Two Player, or Tournament Mode. Be sure to note that you can control the direction of the Gargoyle's jump by pressing Up & Back or Up & Forward to go, respectively, either Back or Forward while jumping. This is really handy when a change of direction in mid-air is preferrable to landing in your opponents arms.
