Introduction
Every good fighting game needs at least one boss character. In Ys vs Trails, it's Loewe that takes this role. With pretty inflated stats, he is both the strongest character in the game (in terms of raw strength), but also one of the bulkiest. His attacks, while somewhat slow, packs a punch, and can even sometimes cause status effects that affects his opponents' options. This makes Loewe a force to be reckoned with in neutral, as any mistake can be easily punished hard by him. However, while he seems absolutely overpowered on paper, there's one huge flaw in Loewe's gameplan: he requires almost full SP in order to become a threat. Gainin SP is Loewe's biggest hurdle: while his projectile Charge Attack has good range and is easily spammable in neutral, it only grants 22 SP, the lowest possible amount. This forces him to stay patient and slowly but surely build up SP until he gets enough for his next punish. Said punishes also requires good execution in order to maximize their damage output. Finally, Loewe has the lowest AP stat in the game, making build choices extremely limited for him.
Loewe is recommended for players who loves dealing absurd damage on their punishes.
Similar to:
Loewe is a technical heavyweight with great neutral who can easily whiff punish his opponents for big damage. |

- Basic poke combo from a ground normal that works at any range. Make sure to start charging [A], as this costs a lot of SP.
- A > S2 jc > j.A > S2 > d.A (whiff) > S6 (2.3k damage)
- Better route from a grounded normal when at close range. Loewe must jump cancel the first S2 as fast as possible.
- d.A(2) > delay j.B > S2 jc > j.AB > S2/S6 (1.4k/2.6k damage)
- BnB punish from a homing dash at close-ish range. Extremely tight in order to make in inescapable. In order to work, Loewe must PM j.A's second hit backwards.
