Vulcano Rosso and Pullum are out in Fighting EX Layer! The long-awaited ARIKA originals have made it to the new era and even within its first few hours of release, they show some excellent potential.
V. Rosso is for those that want to apply pressure — get the knockdown, rush their lives down. He still has setups for his multi-hitting fireball…

And he has some nice new tools to work with, too. Call out fireball-ending strings from Kairi and others with his new fireball counter!

Be careful with his parry, though. It has no invincibility once active, it seems.

Fans of Street Fighter‘s Cammy, meanwhile have a character clearly made for them. Pullum has divekicks, cannon drills, and something Cammy wishes she had: the ability to manipulate her jump arc with a double jump.
As demonstrated, she also has damage.

Air-to-air conversions hurt too, thanks to the divekick’s wide angle.

Though she has a Iori-like crossup command normal, it’s her j.MK you should probably fear (and abuse, if you’re playing as Pullum).
