Big Billy | ||||||

Introduction
Big Billy is the game's grappler. While he lacks in speed, he has a devastating command throw and hard-hitting armored attacks. Billy is a moving tank. Slowly makes his way in, with very threatening mixups once he gets in, making your opponent guess for their life, Being all brawn has its downsides, though. His normals are slow, and while they do have armor, it just makes them as good as faster normals while he's plus. If you like anime and hard reads, Billy might just be the character for you.
Gameplan
Billy's goals are straightforward: to get in close enough to threaten a Big Billy Buster, and to get knockdowns to set up dangerous oki scenarios. Because of his slow attack speed, he will likely need to be patient and make good use of blocking to get close enough to make things happen. Taking advantage of his big threats, Billy can play carefully and then commit to big reads at the perfect time. Focus on trying to end the round off of one hit!
"If I win the Mega Knockdown tournament, I will make anime real!" | |
Lore: | Billy was raised to hate grapplers, but ever since he started reading the wrestling manga Bobo no Obo, he has been training hard to become one. Maybe his dad will finally understand him if he brings home the trophy... |

Unique Traits
Iron Will of the Otaku
When a trade occurs (attacks hit at the same time), Billy's willpower kicks in and allows him to continue a combo. Billy takes the initial damage; at 500 health or lower, his Grappler Guts kick in and he takes 50% less damage on trades.
Shouri no Kamae
Better frame advantage on knockdowns (+20 instead of +10) and most attacks. Allows Billy to have similar okizeme options as other characters by effectively speeding up his ground normals.
Large and In Charge
Ground attacks and throws do extra damage. Jump distance is 1 instead of 2 spaces.
Strategy
Walk forward and block with 6G. Opponents may try to foolishly sweep you or walk forward and throw you. Do not let them dissuade you, you are Big Billy. It is good to threaten jump attacks, which will destroy both throws and sweeps. Usually 8C is your go to option because the knockdown allows for okizeme potential but if you are at major advantage, you may want to switch to 8B as that will trade with an attempted 5B anti-air.
Okizeme
If you have them knocked down at range 1 you can threaten Big Billy Buster (5T). Remember that this throw will always win against other throws, and because they are knocked down any grounded move they use will also lose because they can't move backwards. This allows for some truly filthy 50/50s. You have a few different options for what to cover.
- Big. Billy. Buster. - This should be your first line of thought. They must jump out to escape.
- 5A - will catch any jump attempts as well as beat any attacks, but lose to 5T.
- 8T - will catch jump attempts and repeat the situation but it loses to most attacks and if they 8T they tech away.
- 4B - is relatively safe as it covers both air and ground but you don't get much reward and it ends your turn.
At range 2 you open up Shiko Slam (5C) as a very strong and repeatable threat
- 5B. - Safe option that forces them to block. Low risk but decent reward.
- 5C - They can jump this but on hit or block you get excellent reward. Thanks to your passives you will armor or outrange any standard answer.
- 6T - If you think they will block, forward throw does big damage and puts you into Big Billy Buster okizeme.
Matchups
Paul (Slight Disadvantage) |
---|
Good pokes and a fireball make it tough to get in. To make matters worse, his Paulcano (5A) is one of the few ways to stop Big Billy Buster (5T). However, because he lacks a 6C you can walk and block into a threatening range while sacrificing some health. |
Billy (Even) |
---|
Getting close and slower frame data are no longer problems. Big Billy Buster (5T) will tech another Big Billy Buster if the advantage is even, otherwise the fastest grappler wins. Armor does not apply on trades in the mirror. |
Lewis (Slight Advantage) |
---|
Lewis can't afford to take many hits here and he has to come to you. He can get out of Big Billy Buster (5T) oki by moving backwards with his specials but your Shiko Slam (5C) can catch his late moving specials, forcing him to take knockdowns a little more seriously. |
Marv (Even) |
---|
So many pokes to keep you out, however catching Blazing Ent (6B) with your 8C jumping elbow will quickly switch positions. Forcing Marv to respect your jumps will significantly weaken his zoning, he will need to start mixing up options to keep you out. 6B or 6C can catch him out of Vapor Strike (5A). You want to hunt for a knockdown in this matchup to prevent Marv from retreating with Gravity Spike (8A), though if he walks himself into the corner that is fine too. |
Noel (Slight Disadvantage) |
---|
She has many pokes to keep you at bay; play too passively and she can use Unusual Botanical (6C) to threaten big damage and space control. Watch for when she wants to use vines, your big body damage will ignore the vine armor. If she does get vines up, alternate between walking in and using 8C to prevent her from getting guaranteed damage. |
Nick (Slight Disadvantage) |
---|
You have the same ranges, but he does chip every time you have to block. It can effectively feel like he has more health but outside of the corner you do more damage. If Billy gets a life lead on Nick you can make him chase you, somewhat negating his chip damage. |
