Mr. Red (Combat Tournament Legends)

Created by Terkoiz, then implemented and animated by Stone (Travis Steven) into this game, Mr. Red is a playable character in the game Combat Tournament Legends. He was added in version 2.2b, along with Crazy Jay. He is most known for being the protagonist of the Shock series and his superhuman abilities.

Appearance[]

He is simply a stickman who is completely red.

Powers/Abilities[]

Fast-paced Combat:[]

His hand-to-hand combat is extremely fast-paced, allowing him to specialize in lightning-fast combos.

Superhuman Abilities:[]

He possesses outstanding agility and speed, as he can move like lightning when in close combat, zooming around his opponents and attacking them from virtually every side. His agility also allows him to use that fast-paced hand-to-hand combat to pummel his opponents with frightening rapidity, with enough strength and force to do considerable damage to them.

Energy Manipulation:[]

He can generate large amounts of energy that continuously contracts into his body, and when the limit is reached, it gets released as a huge explosion, which will cause complete devastation to surrounding opponents.

Similar Characters[]

There isn't a Mr. Red opponent that appears in the Story Mode, but a Mr. Red CPU can be seen in the Vs. Mode by starting a match against a Mr. Red CPU. They look exactly the same as Mr. Red.

Bots[]

There is only one type of bot for Mr. Red, who is a Follow Bot.

Follow Bot[]

This bot can actually do special attacks, but can only do one normal combo and also stays in a few spots in the map, though when they notice the player, they will follow them.

Combat Tournament Rewind[]

Trivia[]

Mr. Red is unlocked from the start of the game, but only playable on the game's version on Stickpage.
He is the only one in the character select screen that isn't given his idle stance, instead being completely frozen. This is because a shape object is used instead of a sprite object with animation frames.
His movement speed is the fastest in the game, to no one's surprise.
For Attack 6, Attack 7, and Attack 8, there is a green and yellow hitbox sprite that is used for stopping the movement of the attack when a fighter he can hit is reached, so the move can hit, acting similar to the HitCommAnd function used for Home-Run-Bat.
- Similarly, the red hitbox sprite for Mr. Red is different than what everyone else uses, as they are specifically designed and used for Mr. Red, though there is one instance where Crazy Jay uses it.
The way Attack 9 works can cause it to, when holding left or right, increase or decrease the momentum speed of the move when it goes airborne.
If you hold ⬆ and ⬇ at the same time in the air, then press A, you will have the momentum and speed of Attack 7, but Attack 5 will use it instead, and similar to Attack 9, you can alter your momentum speed during it by holding left or right until it ends.
The script to reduce the character hitbox size to a smaller size when executing a crouch isn't properly scripted for Mr. Red, which is why he still gets hit by attacks that wouldn't hit when crouching with others.
The first hitbox of Attack 11 uses MRHit0, which is a hitbox that lacks the code involving collision with opponent hitboxes in it, which is why there are 6 hitboxes, but 5 hits in Attack 11.

He has one unused attack. It looks to be an alternate version of Attack 6 that would have included a second kick. The animation before the first kick represents him dashing towards opponents. This attack is actually separate from Attack 6, as this attack doesn't have a frame label telling the game what to refer to this move as, meaning it also cannot be seen in-game. Oddly enough, this attack syncs well with Attack 5's animation frames, so it is assumed that the second kick would have hit opponents into the air, and then Attack 5 probably would have followed up after. The attack even has blur effects with it. At some point, it was most likely decided that the attack was to be split in two, removing the second kick animation frames, and keeping Attack 6 and Attack 5 separate. Due to this decision, hitboxes are not present with this attack.

Through use of modifying things or scripts in Sprite 5009, it can be noted that the attack has teleporting scripted for the last animation frame. When the attack finishes, the move teleports to hit opponents while executing Attack 5, further proving that the attack would have Attack 5 as a follow up attack.
