Backstory

Born and raised in the projects, Leon lived a very rough life of crime just so he can be able to take care of his younger brother Reman. He was a trouble maker, sold drugs, scammed people, and a lot of crimes you can think of. He grew up with no parents, his dad died to gang violence, and his mom died of cancer. Due to that he was forced to grow up faster than the other kids.

He robbed someone's house in the projects for a place to stay with just him and his brother. Until one day, he found a suspicious looking arrow sitting on the ground. He thought he can sell it for more money, but right when he picks it up it stabs him, leaving him unconscious.

He then wakes up in a prison cell because he was a wanted person for his crimes. He sensed that there was someone behind him but couldn't awaken to that presence fully. Days pass by, he tried to commit suicide just thinking about the life he lived, not being able to protect his brother, but that presence wouldn't let him. Then he gets electrocuted out of no where from outside the window in his cell. It wasn't any sort of electrocution. This one actually gave him powers. Then when he realized what he can do, he wanted to leave, then the bars tear open, awakening his stand abilities, and now he's able to see the entity that's been possessing him all along, Star Platinum.

The only thing he can think of is protecting his brother, but then he started to realize what good his power can be used for. So he just started training with his brother Reman so they can have strength to protect themselves. Then Leon got into MMA in order to gain money, now he's a champion of the underground, while his brother Reman wishes to get into the KNBA (Kirby version of the NBA).

Can be held for more damage or to keep the opponent in stun. Keep in mind that this consumes an additional 15 juggle and 7 proration for every loop. If held, each hit does 2 damage from every loop onwards. (2) Is superb for mid-combo metergain, especially if 5C is being used at the same time. If held and the input released, goes into 5AAA for recovery.

5B

Does hard knockdown, meaning you can setup oki from it immediately Can be whiff canceled into 214B. If hitting an opponent in the air or in juggle state, is the best way to convert into any EX move and Star Strive thanks to its minimal proration and juggle usage. When canceled into from backdash quickstep (446), makes Leon slide EXTREMELY far. Almost to the point of fullscreen in some stages. On Fatal Counterhit, goes into normal downed state rather than Hard Knockdown, as to allow the player to use any move to convert off of it.

Shock Cracker

Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 35 (10,25) HA, LA 214A, 236B, 214B, 236C - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 7 3(15)3 57 +1 (-55) - - Leon kicks over the opponent's head, then stomps on their toes. Hits overhead, then low. Makes it amazing for mixups provided the player has the abillity to do it in pressure. If the opponent blocks it successfully however, it is highly recommended that the player twinkle cancels, as it is very minus on block. Can be done immediately if Air Flurry Kicks is done too close to the ground. When done instantly, recovery is shortened from 57 to 27 frames. This means the advantage grows from +1 on hit to +57. Can be super canceled for more damage to add on to the combo.

Press buttons to make Star Platinum choose between normals. Best setup from a hard knockdown like 3B, 214A or 236C.

To-do

Basic stuff like the landing page and navbox is in, along with some system pages. System page is complete.

Clean up and finish the rest of the character pages. Every page needs to be updated to account for changes in updates 2.0 to 2.4. Create netplay page. Update FAQ Add patch-notes from 2.1 to 2.4. Finish adding frame data to every page, and begin adding hit-boxes to every page. Glitch is currently the gold standard in the gameplay section, hitboxes aside. (Avoid doing Violet's at all costs however!) When Adding Hitboxes: Only take images from Fighter Factory. This is to keep the look of the hitboxes clean! Ensure that this chart is updated over time.
