Since I usually don't use assists, I deciding to get to know them more and become more competent with them. I decided on using Cecil for 2 reasons really: Tifa wasn't cutting it as an assist (2nd Favorite Final Fantasy Character), And Cecil is my third favorite. So with those simple reasons, I created a nice little combo.
Now I wish there was a training mode for this game. I don't like to just build the assist gauge part of the match just for it to end to either build it back up or start over after the HP attack in the combo. A simple feature like this could have made the game that much better in my opinion.
@Abeltestament The only thing I don't like is in this game, assists can make the quickest 100% combo in any 'fighter'. At least if you wrongly use assists in other games such like mvc3, they can die from 1 super and thats what you get for spamming. In here its simple lock up for a few seconds, but those seconds are nearly the same after character kills in assist games anyways. I just don't think FF has to jump on the assist bandwagon to try and justify a fighting system. They are sell outs.

Personally, I think assists are fine the way they are. You build the gauge so you can't spam assists like you can in other games. You have to rely on actual strategy outside of just hanging back and using them to get an opening. Of course, thats my opinion on the matter.
