## Strategy

#### Gameplay

* **Player** - Jean Grey's abilities will start to be triggered as she gains Psychic Charges. Attack the opponent until you fill a Bar of Power, and up to the point at which you will get your Special 1 Attack, she should have 25 or so Psychic Charges stored, which allows you to either cause Mind Control twice (which limits the opponent's ability to gain Special Attacks), however, it is recommended you use the Special 1 Attack first to Stun the opponent, so that you can then use Mind Control on it. Alternatively, you can save Power up to the Special 2, which will cause Mind Control and Confusion. Starting at 0 Psychic Charges, you should have 35 Psychic Charges at that point, which allows you to apply level-2 Mind Control. However, you should knock one more hybrid combo before, as it will provide 5 additional Psychic Charges, and by that point, tou have enough to not only apply level-2 Mind Control, but also add another level through a Heavy Attack by consuming the 15 remaining Charges, which will make the opponent Special Locked and Power Locked. If Mindwipe triggers or the opponent has little Power stored, Jean will be free to attack it and gain more Psychic Charges, reaching level-4 Mind Control, which will Stun it.
* **Opponent** - In order to prevent Jean from obtaining too many Psychic Charges, it's important to constinuously knock her down and control her Power Flow. In case she dows obtain enough Psychic Charges, beware the Phoenix Force and try not to allow her to get to her Special 2 Attack, as it is significantly more difficult to avoid and causes Mind Control. Also keep in mind that, if awakened, her Heavy Attack will be Unstoppable, and as it also inflicts Mind Control, you should be careful when trying to move in for a Melee Attack.
