Disaster Club |
Having left the club years ago after his parent's death, Rugal has to face his past in order to help his friends. Returning to Disaster Club, he now has to fight his nemesis for the sake of what was once his home.
Playstyle[]
Difficulty: Medium
Health: 1600
Playstyle: Rushdown, Gimmick.
Rugal is predominantly a rushdown character. However, he also has a special gimmick ability based off his powers. Rugal has 2 states: normal and Overheat. Using specials in his normal state charges his Overheat meter. When his Overheat state is active, the meter starts to drain but Rugal gains access to more offensive specials and stronger normals. His attacks in this state also have a damage over time effect. This means Rugal has to work for his damage, but once he has enough Overheat he can easily devastate the opponent if he plays his cards right.
Rugal’s Throttles are both trade-offs. Throttle 1 allows for a more offensive playstyle in normal mode but can be punishing for newer players who rely on Heat Charge, while Throttle 2 increases the damage of Overheat but means players have to make every second count while they’re in the form.
Special Moves[]
Bolded moves were added in Complete.
Throttles[]
Throttle 1: Overheat charges more from Heat Grab but less from Heat Charge
Throttle 2: Overheat damage over time effect damages more, but Overheat meter drains faster.

Arcade Mode[]
Good Ending[]
Rugal fights Thundereye as the final boss.
“Thundereye tried to run off like a coward after we defeated Beautyface, but I chased him down. I defeated him, although I can’t say it wasn’t a hard fight. It was hard to hold back against him, but I managed to restrain myself. No matter how much I hate him, I would never sink down to his level. He’s now in G.U.N custody, and my parents can finally be put to rest.”
Bad Ending[]
Rugal fights Dean as the final boss.
“I defeated Dean, but by the time I had Thundereye had got away. Ringmaster and the other Disaster Club loyalists stayed to clean things up while we went home, knowing we’d done our work. That night, a man in a black leather jacket arrived at the orphanage asking to see me. He said he was my brother.”
