General CAW Moveset Formula

[xirtamehtsitahw]

I've used the same general formula for CAW movesets for about a year or so: focus almost exclusively on the opponent's head and body, while eschewing most arm- or leg-targeting moves (I did make a couple of exceptions with my very smallest wrestler, Stuffy McStuffins, the tiny blue dragon from the Disney Junior series "Doc McStuffins").

 

I also use one head- and one body-targeting created finisher for each CAW. I also take their weight class into consideration when choosing moves for their moveset (apart from a master chain-grapple list that I copy onto each CAW).

 

A note about using hacked grapples in grappled-strike and struggle-submission slots: you can use them with impunity, as the AI will never, and in fact cannot, counter them. However...the other side of the coin is that you can't reverse them, either, when the AI uses them. This makes for some rather interesting CAW-vs-CAW matches. They often go into "quadruple overtime", when the AI simply refuses to let me pin them/make them submit, and both the AI wrestler(s) and I end up battered, bruised and bloody.

 

A final word, in regards to my current CAW roster:

 

Here is a list of the CAWs (currently) on my SvR 11 roster:

 

In order from smallest to largest (both height and weight-wise)

 

Stuffy McStuffins--height: est. 4'9", weight: 100 pounds

Midna--height: est. 5'0", weight: 150 pounds

Guilmon--height: 5'9", weight: 200 pounds

Cynder--height: 6'2", weight: 240 pounds

Spyro--height: 6'6", weight: 260 pounds

Candis Rose--height: 6'8", weight: 374 pounds

Broly--height: est. 7'5", weight: 380 pounds

 

The reason Candis' weight is only 6 pounds less than Broly's, despite the fact that she is 9 inches shorter, is because of her rather, um, heavyset build (she's based on the fanart of Candis the Fat Mew; I supplied the surname).
