Netmarble has unleashed two new warriors into the world of King of Fighters Allstar in the latest update. Athena and Xi Benimaru are gearing up to jump into the ring and tackle the onslaught of new dungeons and special events placed before them in this bumper January release.

Both of these new fighters are more geared towards mono-coloured teams thanks to their skills, starting with 2003 Athena. She is an Attack-type Green Element, with the ability to increase Green fighters ATK, which is cool. Her main strength lies in her use of Barrier projectiles to shepherd enemies together, setting them up for some easy AOE damage.

Our second recruit is Xi Benimaru, also an Attack fighter but of the Purple element. His skill also increases Purple element ATK and can whip out a long combo of projectiles that can hit multiple enemies. A useful attack to be sure, however, maybe not one to build a team around. If you are short on currency, Athena should be the goal here.
