'''''Lin, follow my lead!'''|Vinny Ramón}}
 
 
'''Vinny Ramón '''- along with [[Lin Rhodes]] - is one of the first [[Infinity Franchise|franchise]] members encountered by [[Alex]] and [[Joel]] in [[Downtown Olathe]] Before donning the jersey, Vinny was part of [[Tic-Tonic|Tic-Tonic’s]] gang.
 
 
==In-Game==
 
Vinny and Lin are found on the basketball court near the [[Olathe Public School]] in House Crimson, idly hitting at a [[Rubber Projectile|basketball]] back in fourth with wooden sticks and a bullyragged [[Chip Strung]] in the background, stuck in a hoop and calling for help.
 
 
After Lin accidentally knocks the rubber projectile at Alex, who promptly deflates it, Vinny will become irritated and initiate a fight.
 
 
==Battle==
 
If Lin’s health reaches 50% or below, and Vinny is still alive, he will tell him to ''“Hang in there!”''
 
 
Upon death, Vinny shouts: ''"You'll get yours one day, cute stuff!"''
 
 
== Strategy ==
 
Vinny and Lin are capable of doing some sizable amounts of damage, but they are very predictable, so use this to your advantage.
 
 
Vinny will always [[Bully]] Alex and Lin will always Tense Up on his first turn. Begin with a Receding Stance and [[Gun Toss]] or [[Gun Reveal]] (to prevent Vinny from attacking first). Follow with a [[Goat Kick]] to knock Vinny down which will cause Lin to become Confused, effectively immobilizing him. Concentrate your attacks on Vinny and keep Lin confused for as long as possible, follow with [[Iron Hoof]] and [[Mind Games]] on Lin, this will kill Vinny and leave Lin vulnerable to your assault.
 
 
While Lin remains confused, recharge your SP and when he is no longer confused take advantage of the Spooked status from Mind Games to scare him and resume your recharge. Once you have topped off your SP finish Linn off with [[Flying Axe Kick]]s and the Taunt/Dodge Combo.
 
 
==Trivia==
 
* Ed has described the pair of Vinny and Lin as ''‘stupid, juvenile friends’'', with Vinny pretending to be streetsmart and Lin, oblivious as he is, being impressionable to the attitude.<ref>[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/pointless-rpg/images/e/e2/Vinny_and_lin.png/revision/latest?cb=20200222031647 "I saw them more like stupid juvenile friends, where Lin is very impressionable and Vinny pretends to be streetsmart" - Ed, 01-10-17]</ref>
