Orb removal is very powerful, though also very unreliable.
And finally, Cthulhu has Charm. A very potent one at that. Sadly, again, unreliable.

The combination of these three make Cthulhu a very potent package. Sure she might not deliver the best she can every time, but hardly ever will there be a time when all three miss.
That wasn't my intention, sorry.

My point is that it's Ryu-Oh > Cthullu.

Wolf Maanaf offers 30% Water RST down, what also means that Ryu-Oh will land her BP much easier.
Ofc Cthullu's buffs will also land.

However as you can see Ryu-Oh is the better choice.

Furthermore new player will have, starting with the next advent, the opportunity to get old raid Himes.
Getting Gabriel or Atlanta. You can reach with both def cap if you have Cthullu + Gabriel or Ryu-Oh+Atlanta.

However I would go with Ryu-Oh instead because, like I said before, she is the better choice with Wolf-Maanaf.
Cthulhu + Wolf Maanaf isn't that bad but if you have both then Ryu-Oh please. Attack down + BP will save your ass more than Cthulhu later.
