One of your most important zoning tools. Allows you to chip and wall your opponent out while keeping you in relatively safe distance with the backwards recoil. Along with 5G, this move creates lengthy zoning wars that are difficult and tiring to come out on top of. Not unbeatable, though.

Impostor

Health 2500


Profile

The Impostor from Innersloth's online multiplayer deduction game Among Us is the main (and only) character in Among Us Arena.

There is only one playable character, but you can select 15 (+1) different colors, each with their own unique taunt.

Basics

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Unique: Only character in the game.
  • Match-up Spread: Impostor has no losing match ups.
  • Versatility: Combined with oppressive close range pressure, Guns and j.5k allow Impostor to claim dominion over any range with proper spacing and timing.
  • Conversions: High hitstun and gatlings create opportunities for 70% damage combos off of any hit, except for j.G and far 5G
  • Super: Full screen beam creates absurd damage opportunities from any hit. Long enough combos can even build 100% meter, bumping up damage all over the place.
  • Match-up Spread: Impostor has no winning match ups.
  • Defense/Volatlity: Very committal defensive options. Losing rounds off of one opening and one mixup means you'll be guessing for game very often off a single mistake.
  • Unforgiving Execution: Opportunities for near-100% combos are common, but will require very lengthy and precise sequences, with mistakes being just as fatal.

Your super move. Beats counter, hits full screen and does insane damage as a combo ender. Very unsafe if blocked, but not from a distance. Works as a reversal, but the risk relegates the move's use to a damage nuke at the end of every combo.
