The Worst Comeback Mechanic of All Time

Fighting game comeback mechanics are a touchy subject, as they sometimes can be too strong, leading us all to a never-ending discussion of video game balancing.

Today, I wanted to cover what I consider to be the worst fighting comeback mechanic of all time: Street Fighter X Tekken's 'Pandora'. With a gimmick of sacrificing your point character to buff your anchor, Pandora sounds cool on paper, but aside from some awesome visuals, it's almost useless.
