== Introduction ==
'''Sasquatch (サスカッチ)''', the Abominable Snowman


The most noble warrior of the Bigfoot tribe, residing in the Rocky Mountains of Canada. Upon sensing the energy of the invading Pyron, Sasquatch journeyed to uncover the source of this power. After coming home to his village, he discovers that his peers had vanished. In the center of the village, Sasquatch found a cavernous hole. Believing that his fellow villagers had been trapped inside, he jumped inside to rescue them. Ultimately, Sasquatch found that his kinsmen had willingly entered the hole, because Jedah had tricked them with bananas.


'''Sasquatch''' is a simple to use & not too difficult to master character. Sasquatch is a top-tier contender recommended for anyone who is first learning the game & also to players who enjoy winning


== Overview ==
== Gameplay ==
=== Introduction ===
{{Content Box|content=
Sasquatch (サスカッチ), undeniably one of the two best characters in Vampire Savior, though he is more accessible than his counterpart Zabel.
'''Primary Objectives:'''
* Abuse your amazing normals to approach
* Confirm air-hits into high/low offense
* Abuse 5MP to maintain your advantage
* Steamroll your opponent with a combination of short hop high/lows & long dash pressure
* When you make a read on their defensive technique, use Big Brunch for massive damage
{{ProConTable
|pros=
* High health
* Huge damage on chain combos
* Doesn't require meter to be effective
* Dashing pressure pushes through Tech-Hits
* Has the best strike/throw option in the game as his throw leads to a full combo
* Extremely fast high/low options with short hop offense
* 5MP is a catch-all move for setting up offense with realistic confirms on hit/block
* 66MK & 66LK are far disjointed, making them an effective approach tool
* Dark Force is an effective defensive/escape tool
* Great normal throw range, can normal throw people outside of their throw range
* Dashing offense is extremely difficult to mitigate with defensive tech. Only occurs at high-level play
* Low execution barrier, making him the best go-to character for input/output & risk/reward in the roster
* His neutral game opens up with meter utilizing ES Towers & ES Typhoon
* 9MP is an incredible air-to-ground attack + an option select air throw
|cons=
* Slower than average wake-up, he is more vulnerable to ground chasing/oki
* Slow walk speed
* Approaches are limited, so he is more vulnerable to being zoned
* Wide when standing & crouching, vulnerable to cross-ups
* No invincibility on Reversal, more susceptible to being oppressed
}}
}}
}}


His gameplay is characterized by extreme pressure and unseeable high/low mixups. He is backed up by high health, incredible movement speed(if you've mastered short hops), extremely buff normals, and some very high damage combos. His only weaknesses, however slight, is one of the worst walk speeds, though you won't be walking much, and a not quite good air game.

=== Executional Requirements ===
{{#vardefine:cargoTable|VSAV_MoveData}}
'''Low to Mid Level'''
[[/Data]]
=== Normal Moves ===


Sasquatch is very strong at a low to mid level without putting in much work. At the very least you'll want to be able to do at least a single short hop at will for a mix up or to start some pressure.
==== Standing Normals ====


'''Mastery'''
=====<font style="visibility:hidden; float:right">5LP</font>=====
 
{{MoveDataCargo
Sasquatch at a master level becomes a bit difficult, but compared to the rest of the cast it is still much easier. Short hop becomes extremely emphasized as you must be able to short hop the entire length of the screen, instantly short hopping right as you land from the previous one. Doing them them cleanly definitely takes some time to master, but it looks beautiful when executed perfectly.
| title = 5 LP
 
| input = 5LP
You'll also want to be able to 1-hit push block at will. Sasquatch very easily turns defense into offense, potentially more so than the rest of the cast. You will simply push block, and short hop in behind it.

Fairly standard st.LP. As with all standing light punches, you receive a renda bonus if you press the button twice. Good for stopping characters with hops, parabolic dashes, or instant air dashes if they are close. Abusing the renda bonus is necessary to give Anakaris a bad time, as the advantage on-block will be enough to go straight into long hop j.LP. In additon, the renda bonus is strong enough to go straight into 623KK.

Talk to the hand. Extremely good poke. If you don't know what to press as Sasquatch, this should probably be the button to press. It's almost as fast as most jabs in the games (most are 5f), but has a staggering amount of priority. Just like st.LP, you can use this to stop hops, parabolic dashes, or instant air dashes if they are close. The reward for doing so is much better, however.

Pretty good uppercut. This serves as your anti-air normal, but admittedly there won't be many usage of it as a proper anti-air as there are just generally more safe options. This button on-hit will always air reset the opponent, which will lead into one of Sasquatch's mixups afterwards.

Along with st.MP, this is one of your two option select buttons for anti-air. The angle of it is so great that it will catch MOST upbacks in the corner. This button will not catch Felicia in the corner, however; use st.HK instead.

High-hitting light kick. This move can be used as anti-hop, and if anything, is better than st.LP in that regard. The difference between st.LP and st.LK however is that this will not benefit from the renda bonus. Use this to tell pesky animals to sit down before hitting them with another mixup.

For the most part, this serves the same purpose as st.MP in terms of anti-air, but overall inferior to st.MP in raw frame data. This isn't to say that this is a terrible move, as it does cover a higher angle than st.MP. As such, this is better for intercepting higher parabolic dashes or air dashes. Situational at most.

It's a standard crouching poke. This move is **NOT A LOW**; use st.LK for that. This normal's plus frames is good enough to stuff any attempt of mashing, and great for stagger.

This move can be used as a means to anti-air air dashes, especially Q-Bee's, but it's not really a great move to mash unlike st.MP. Just like cr.LP, it's not a low; use cr.MK for a low instead. Can be used for staggers and frame traps.

Has utility in the corner for combos. You can use this as an ender instead of cr.HK to air reset them and lead into a quick and dirty mixup.

Two-hit normal. This move is great for sticking to the opponent, but is arguably guard-cancel bait and easy to pushblock. This move can be used to crossup opponents from a short hop and long hop if timed correctly. This move will usually crossup most short crouchers from a short hop, so abuse it when you can.

=== Old Normal Moves Info ===
 
'''LP:'''
Small range but comes out fast with huge priority. Use as combo starters or to jab people out of everything. Whiff crouching opponents. Cancelable.
 
'''MP:'''
'Talk to the hand' move. Huge hitbox, come out fast and cancelable. Sasquatch's key to stopping air guard, wake up meaty and huge combos.
 
'''HP:'''
Uppercut. Stop jumps.
 
'''LK:'''
Not much use. Cancelable.
 
'''MK:'''
Whiff crouching opponents but pretty good range.
 
'''HK:'''
Despite its look it's air unblockable. Decent meaty, and goes over low attacks
 
'''c.LP:'''
Like LP but doesn't whiff crouching. Seems to have less range though. Cancelable
 
'''c.MP:'''
Similar to MP. Trades range for shrunk hitbox. Cancelable.
 
'''c.HP:'''
The flip. End combo with this instead of cr.HK if you don't want to knock down your opponent (allowing them to roll away) . Also decent anti air.
 
'''c.LK:'''
Hits low. Move yourself a little forward (possible kara cancel for Big Brunch grab ?) . Good combo starter. Cancelable.
 
'''c.MK:'''
The ass. Less range than MK, but now cancelable !
 
'''c.HK:'''
Sas' sweep. Reach like half a screen. Great combo ender.
 
'''j.LP:'''
Good for short hops. Also j.LP j.LK is a good jump in chain.
 
'''j.MP:'''
Headbutt. Staple move in short hops. Big hitbox, good damage and stun.
 
'''j.HP:'''
A knockdown attack. j.MP will probably lead to more damaging combos but this move is good for mindless long dash raids ... hmmm
 
'''j.LK:'''
Nifty. Use this for short hops instead of the punches.
 
'''j.MK:'''
Identical to the LK version ... I think it has more starting frames and hit harder. Possibly everything you can do with j.LK can be done with this instead.
 
'''j.HK:'''
The butt. 2 hit, and can cross up. Very powerful move in rushes.

Two-hit normal. This move is great for sticking to the opponent, but is arguably guard-cancel bait and easy to pushblock. This move can be used to crossup opponents from a short hop and long hop if timed correctly. This move will usually crossup most short crouchers from a short hop, so abuse it when you can.

One of the best normal throws in the game. Both MP and HP excellent option select into anti-air normals if the opponent jumps, and if they tech they are left close to Sasquatch and he has a good advantage. In the corner, Sasquatch is left right next to the opponent and can throw loop them as long as they keep throw teching.

[ Startup:2 | Active:1 | Total Frames: 65 ]


An absolutely amazing command grab. When it connects, the opponent will be frozen and Sasquatch can hop in to get a free combo. This move is incredibly fast, and easily lets you confirm into an ES Big Typhoon for big damage. The only downside is that it is one of the few throws that always gives a whiff animation. The whiff animation is long enough that if someone neutral jumps they will have time to land on Sasquatch's head and punish.
==== Big Breath ====


There is not any difference between the normal versions, and the ES Big Brunch does slightly more damage and freezes the opponent for longer.

One of Sasquatch's two useful versions of this move. Its useful as an anti-air, though it is air blockable. Most character's won't be able to punish it on block unless they have a way of altering their air movement, and even then it can tend to be a bit of a tight punish. Still, it hits a nice part on the screen, comes out fast, and recovers surprisingly quickly. Useful in certain situations and matchups.

{{AttackDataCargo-VSAV/Query|SA_623MK}}
As a guard cancel this move has 9 frames of invincibility, which makes it invincible past start up. This means will not lose or trade unlike the other two normal version guard cancels. Also, it is the safest version on block at -6, which is potentially punishable but not quite easily. Besides those advantages, the problems are numerous. You'll still be at -5 on hit afterwards, which is potentially punishable. You'll have to watch out for this completely whiffing on small crouching opponents due to the high hitbox. And even as the fastest version of Big Typhoon, it is still slow for a guard cancel and easily baited. In the end, the guard cancel LK Big Typhoon has a little bit of use, but you may as well push block instead.
 
'''MK Big Typhoon''' [ Startup:11 | Active:22 | Hit:+2 | Block:-15 ]
 
Not much to say about this version. It is plus on hit unlike his other two Typhoons, which may actually be punished.

(I'm not sure if the game will select the weaker or stronger version of a special if you don't have meter for ES, but I am considering using LK+MK or MK+HK on the basis on which button combination will give you MK Typhoon if you have no meter. With the idea that the game will select the version that gives you a decent frame advantage if you do not have meter for ES Big Typhoon. This is only if you somehow have issues paying attention to how much meter you currently have.)

As a guard cancel, this move has 9 frames of invincibility, and with an 11 frame startup, there is a chance it may be stuffed. Not only that, the startup is so slow it is very easy to bait out. Out of the 3 normal versions of this move, it is plus on hit which is nice, you just just won't get the chance to make use of it.
 
'''HK Big Typhoon''' [ Startup:10 | Active:33 | Hit:-5 | Block:-22 ]
 
Not much to say about this one either. Does the most hits and damage of any of the normal versions, but you're better off comboing into a knockdown or resetting to keep your momentum going.

As a guard cancel, this move has 9 frames of invincibility, and with a 10 frame start up, this has a high chance of trading. Plus the start up is so long it will be easy to bait out, at which point you're dealing with -22F on block. Not a good guard cancel.
 
'''ES Big Typhoon''' [ Startup:9 | Active:48 | Hit:Knockdown | Block:-52 ]
 
The most useful version of Big Typhoon. Does massive damage and is great as a finishing move. While you are advantageous on hit, recovery is long, and you have a very good chance of losing pressure after knocking down with this move. Its generally best used when finishing an opponent off.

While it looks like it may have a decent anti-air hitbox, do not use it as such since it is still air blockable and the recovery is long.

It even does semi-decent damage on hit for a guard cancel. If baited though, it is by far the easiest to punish so watch out what move you cancel from into this.

This is the move. Usually referred to as 'Ice Tower', it is one of the most frustrating things to deal with when fighting Sasquatch. It is multi-functional, since it works as: An anti-air(but still air blockable), a full screen punish, and a combo tool. Hell, I even just mash it as a reversal sometimes when I see my opponents timing is slightly off.

As a combo tool, I've seen it used occasionally to get a knockdown after a Big Brunch, but when they don't want to deal with the poor advantage on knockdown that ES Big Typhoon gives. Though this is at a price of less damage.

EX Command throw. If Sasquatch didn't have Big Brunch, this would actually be a strong move. It does a ton of damage and has a great throw range. But when you can do comparable damage or more with Big Brunch ''and'' gain meter from the follow up hits, you really don't have a good reason to be using this. On a miss, it always gives a throw whiff animation, like the rest of his command throws.

At full screen, I'm not quite sure which would reach the other end first, but I am inclined to say ES Big Towers would or it would be about even as Big Freezer doesn't travel quite as fast as it may seem.

The Puddle. Unblockable, super-active, character-detached ground grab. A strong move, especially in the corner and the opponent is up-backing just outside of your anti-air range. They'll land on the ice sheet and be unable to escape. You can also set it up with a s.MP canceled into this. There isn't much of a gap to poke out, especially if you canceled from a s.MP that air resets. Setups from s.MP aren't exactly solid though, as in all cases if they notice it, they can simple hold up forward and punish Sasquatch. On defense, make sure you don't try up backing away from it in the corner. You'll just fall back on top of it as you land due to how super-active the move is.

EX Command throw. If Sasquatch didn't have Big Brunch, this would actually be a strong move. It does a ton of damage and has a great throw range. But when you can do comparable damage or more with Big Brunch and gain meter from the follow up hits, you really don't have a good reason to be using this. On a miss, it always gives a throw whiff animation, like the rest of his command throws.

Easter Egg EX Move. Hits low. Causes knockdown on hit. Even though this is projectile that sits on the screen for a good 3 seconds it isn't very good. It costs a meter, has an extremely long start up time, and does almost no damage. Its just not really worth it.

=== Japan ===
You want to master Sasquatch's short hop (6,6,4). From the short hop Sasquatch can create a variety of fast, high priority overheads that also get him closer to the opponent! This leads to a multitude of mixups that all ends with painful combos.
 
Mixup :
 
MP : stop people from jumping away and air guard Sas' short hop attacks.
 
short hop MP/LP/LK link to ground combos : hits high
 
(empty short hop) cr.LK -> ground chain : hits low
 
(empty short hop) Big Brunch grab -> combo or just P throw : unblockable
 
Generally Sas is strong against practically anyone, and his game isn't too overly complicated either.
In neutral situations space yourself out for your short hop attacks and sweep to hit at max range. Use MP and LP to defend yourself, or just stay back building meter with backdash HP and kara canceled breath.
 
Ice wave (22PP) is one of the tools to setup your pressure. Use it to catch Demitri spamming air fireballs, catching people off guard when they try to dash in, etc even anti air. Don't be too predictable though, this move is easily react to from a good distance. Don't spam it, decent players won't try to counterattack Sas after one Ice wave, you're just wasting meters.
 
Once you've knocked them into the corner, keep them there as long as possible. Air throw to keep them from chickenguard jumping out, if they tech it then either sweep, MP or prepare for a command grab. Also ending combos with cr.HP is a pretty good idea to end combos, it prevents rolling, after the reset a random sweep can catch desperate players offguard. MP is still your main sort of annoyance, cancel into sweep if you see your opponent block it high. Once you've maintained good pressure, keep hopping.
 
Also the Whale super thingie ... it's a big gimmick (you can really get killed for using it) but it's incredibly effective to throw out once in awhile when you're pressuring your opponent. When you've trained your opponent to stay defensive when you're at hop distance, throw out a MP xx this super and it'll break their guard. If you haven't used it a lot, you might just pull this off TWICE in a match.
 
== Advanced Techniques ==
 
*Long dash links in the Corner
::Dashing J.attack, recover, J.attack. This string can combo if linked with the right normals & will negate tech-Hits as Sasquatch maintains his momentum.
:::https://twitter.com/VMP_KyleW/status/966402282601369601
 
*Renda cheese to exploit Anakaris
::(st.lp, RENDA st.LP, instant long dash j.lp, instant J.hk, Land) xN
 
*Long dash links after Brunch
::Some opponents make it possible to combo after brunch with long dash links, The initial attack becomes MEATY to allow the second link to connect & be easier to execute. without the MEATY setup, d.j.lp, LINK j.lk is a 1-2 frame link.
 
*Long dash cross-ups at mid-screen
::Against wide opponents (GA, LE, BI, VI, JE) whom are crouching at mid-screen, it's possible for Sasquatch to long dash on the first side & connect with J.hk as a cross-up on the second air attack.
 
*Short-Hop cross-ups at mid-screen.
::Against short crouchers (MO, LI, BU, GA, QB) whom are crouching at mid-screen, it's possible for Sasquatch to short hop and force a J,hk to cross up.
 
*Short-hop x Turn Around Brunch
::Against short crouchers (MO, LI, BU, GA, QB) whom are crouching at mid-screen, it's possible for Sasquatch to short hop over the opponent then avoid the turn around frames by a perfect input of ES-brunch. ES-Brunch will grab behind Sasquatch & force an instant turn-around.
 
*Guard Cancel on trade combos
::See memo's section below - HK guard cancel, on trade, can lead to a ridiculously long hit-stun state on the opponent. This creates very easy combos.
 
*2-Hit Ice Towers
::Ice towers can hit twice, so long as the opponent's hurt-box resides on both sides of Sasquatch during activation.
 
*Hosokawa Resets
::While the opponent is in the corner, it's ultra-effective to constantly do short chains ending in cl.hk to force a corner reset. This build tremendous white life. Mix in these options until the next opening will be a max damage to secure the deathblow.
:::cr.lk, st.hk
:::Short hop j.mp, cr.lk, st.hk,
:::Brunch, Short-hop j.mp, cr.lk, st.hk
:::https://twitter.com/VMP_KyleW/status/962082780673748993
:::https://twitter.com/VMP_KyleW/status/966400918756376576
 
*Guard-Lock Short-hops
::Completing a frame tight short-hop j.lp, land short-hop j.mp is a 100% block-stun state with no gap for the opponent to act otherwise. the only option for the opponent is GC or Tech-Hit.
 
*J.mp chain to beat throw attempts
::When you make a read that the opponent will throw you, execute an instant 8-jump j.mp, j.mk (whiff), falling j.lp, j.hk string to get some offense & advantage out of the situation.
 
*HP-Throw OS & Backwards Knockdown
::HP-Throw is also an Option Select for catching players jumping out of the corner; abuse this. Additionally, recognize that after Sasquatch'S HP-Throw connects (No throw-tech) the opponent wakes up BACKWARDS. Their ground rolls are reversed & will most likely NOT execute a reversal.
:::https://twitter.com/VMP_KyleW/status/969802000060661760
 
*cr.lk corpse hop
::cr.lk slightly moves Sasquatch forward. Use this to corpse hop after correctly guessing the opponents ground roll.
 
*Throw-Tech Offense/Confirms
::After executing HP-Throw & the opponent completes a Throw-tech, Sasquatch can still maintain an advantage with specific attacks.
 
*Short-Hop J.mk confirms at neutral
::At neutral Sasquatch has a really strong approach/confirm tool; short-hop j.mk. be sure to follow-up according to the scenario.
:::Opponent crouches & is hit = st.mp xx ES-Typhoon
:::Opponent stands & blocks = Another short hop or a low attack to maintain offense
:::Opponent air blocks the j.mk = confirm into a grounded UB normal then purse after the reset scenario
:::Opponent is hit out of jump-startup = purse after the reset scenario
 
*St.mp xx Big Eisbahn
:::Gimmicky, but effective if the opponent is being very defensive - after a corner reset, mount an offense with st.mp xx Big Eisbahn or a corner combo ending in cr.hp then do an immediate Big Eisbhan
 
*J.hk hits on both sides
::Correctly guess the opponents ground roll then descend with a 8-jump J.hk just as they wake-up.
 
*Pursuit (whiff) - Big Towers Option Select
::When going for a deathblow with pursuit, the opponent may roll away (instant back-roll). Sasquatch can execute ES-Big Towers to cover the whiff & force an instance of cheap-kill damage. Just execute 22+PPP just after Sasquatch lands from the sweep.
:::''If the opponent rolled away = Es-Big Towers cheap-kill''
:::''If the opponent didn't roll away = Pursuit's animation covers the 22+PPP input.''
:::https://twitter.com/VMP_KyleW/status/903126037776629760
 
*Kowappa-Sweeps
::At higher levels of play, because of the overall risk-reward being in Sasquatch's favor to dash-in at mid-range, most opponents block standing at this distance. Kowappa recognizes this & successfully land many cr.hk's at this range. The sweep gives Sasquatch time to dash-in & cover all of the opponents roll options.
 
*Long-Dash j.mp, j.hk offers cross-up offense for opponents who are wide while crouching; Lei-Lei, Gallon, Etc.

== Combos ==
'''Terminology'''
:> = next move is a '''chain'''
:>> = next move is a '''link'''
:xx = next move is a '''special or EX cancel'''
 
=== Basic Combos ===
 
*2.LK > 2.MP > 2.MK > 2.HK
::23 red/41 white
::Sasquatch's most basic close range knockdown combo. Works on the entire cast.
 
*2.LK > 2.MP > 2.HK
::18 red/32 white
::If you're too far away to connect all four hits of the combo above then use this as a long range knockdown chain.
 
'''Short Hop Combos'''<br>
''All the following combos can be done from either a regular jump in attack, or off of a short hop (664). The j.MP can also be substituted for a j.MK, which has longer range but can be crouched by certain characters.''
*j.MP >> 2.LK > 2(or)5.MP > 2(or)5.MK > 2.HK
::29 red/50~ white
::After a short hop, depending on the spacing, you may not be able to land all four hits of the ground attacks due to push back, usually having to remove one of the medium strength attacks (MK recommended) to connect the sweep – I find that this is usually a problem standing opponents. However, by using 5.MP and 5.MK rather than 2.MP and 2.MK in the middle of your chain you are able to hit all four grounded hits from a greater distance due to the standing normals having less push back on hit. The problem with that is about half the cast can croucher under 5.MK and Q-Bee can crouch under 5.MP, so you either need to confirm that the opponent is standing after the 2.LK or just not do chains with standing normals on those characters. The characters that can crouch under 5.MK are: Bulleta, Felicia, Gallon, Lei-Lei, Lilith, Morrigan, Q-Bee, Sasquatch and Zabel.
 
*j.MP >> 5.MP > 5.MK > 2.HP
::33 red/55 white
::Most damage available from basic chain off of a short hop. 2.HP gives an air reset on hit and leaves Sasquatch at +3, this reset is most useful in the corner. You can add in an 2.LK before the MP to add in a bit of a high low mix up, however this will actually cause the combo to do less damage at -2 red/-3 white due to damage scaling.
 
*j.MP >> 5.MP xx 623.HK
::35 red/55 white
 
*j.MP >> 5.MP xx 623.KK
::38 red/59 white
 
*664 j.HK (1 hit) >> 2.LK > 2.MP > 2.MK > 2.HK
::26 red/44 white
::Used on crouching opponents that are crossed up when short hopping.
 
=== Jump-In Combos ===
''Including j.HK (2 hits) in your jump in combos is more of an optimized thing and doesn't pop up too often in real matches. Most of the time you'll be jumping in with "j.LP > j.MP" or "j.MP > j.MK" chains.''
*j.MP > j.HK(2 hits) >> 5.MP > 5.MK > 2.HK
::35 red/57 white
 
*j.MP > j.HK(2 hits) >> 5.MP xx 623.LP(or)MP
::38 red/59 white
 
*j.MP > j.HK(2 hits) >> 5.MP xx 623.HK
::40 red/65 white
 
*j.MP > j.HK(2 hits) >> 5.MP xx 623.KK
::44 red/69 white
 
=== Big Brunch Combos ===
''There are three important things to know about Big Brunch, first being that the opponent can mash while frozen to escape sooner, second that Sasquatch spits the opponents out at different distances some follow ups will not work on the characters that are spit out further away, and lastly ES Big Brunch gives you more time to follow up.''
 
*63214.xP >> Short Hop j.MK >> 5.MP xx 623.KK
::51 red/77 white
::Mid-screen big brunch combo, works on the entire cast.
 
*63214.PP >> j.MP > j.HK(2hit) >> 5.MP xx 623.KK
::58 red/92 white
::ES Big Brunch only(?); Corner only
 
=== Other Combos ===
 
*5.LP > 5.LP xx 623.KK
::28 red/45 white
 
*5.LP > 5.LP >> 5.MP xx 623.KK
::34 red/54 white
 
*66j.LP (Early) >> j.MP >> 2.LK > 2.MP > 2.MK > 2.HK
::29w/51r
::Dash link combo. You must start your dash from far away, press j.LP a bit early so that it will hit later in the active frames which will allow you to link into j.MP. The right spacing and timing is necessary even for comboing into the ground chain portion.
 
*236PP >> (brief wait) >> j.MP >> j.HK (2 hits) >> 5.MP xx 623.KK
::52 red/81 white
::ES Ice Puff allows for a follow up combo, but if you attack the frozen opponent too early it will cause an air reset and only allow a single hit.
 
'''Dark-Force Combos (LP+LK / MP+MK ver.)'''
 
*66j.LP > j.MP > j.HK(2 hits) >> 2.LK > 2.MP > 2.MK > 2.HK
::33 red/54 white
::Basic combo utilizing Sasquatch's ability to chain air hits during his hops while Dark-Force is activated.
 
*66j.LP > j.MP > j.MK > j.HK >> 66j.LP > j.MP > j.MK > j.HK >> 66j.LP > j.MP > j.MK > j.HK >> 66j.LP > j.MP > j.MK > j.HK >> 2.LP > 5.MP > 5.MK > 2.HK
::51 red/88 white
::You do the dash loop 4 times and then end in the ground chain. 24 hits. Works only on standing opponents. It may be possible to get one more dash loop...

Introduction

Sasquatch (サスカッチ), the Abominable Snowman

The most noble warrior of the Bigfoot tribe, residing in the Rocky Mountains of Canada. Upon sensing the energy of the invading Pyron, Sasquatch journeyed to uncover the source of this power. After coming home to his village, he discovers that his peers had vanished. In the center of the village, Sasquatch found a cavernous hole. Believing that his fellow villagers had been trapped inside, he jumped inside to rescue them. Ultimately, Sasquatch found that his kinsmen had willingly entered the hole, because Jedah had tricked them with bananas.

Sasquatch is a simple to use & not too difficult to master character. Sasquatch is a top-tier contender recommended for anyone who is first learning the game & also to players who enjoy winning

Gameplay

Primary Objectives:

  • Abuse your amazing normals to approach
  • Confirm air-hits into high/low offense
  • Abuse 5MP to maintain your advantage
  • Steamroll your opponent with a combination of short hop high/lows & long dash pressure
  • When you make a read on their defensive technique, use Big Brunch for massive damage
Strengths Weaknesses
  • High health
  • Huge damage on chain combos
  • Doesn't require meter to be effective
  • Dashing pressure pushes through Tech-Hits
  • Has the best strike/throw option in the game as his throw leads to a full combo
  • Extremely fast high/low options with short hop offense
  • 5MP is a catch-all move for setting up offense with realistic confirms on hit/block
  • 66MK & 66LK are far disjointed, making them an effective approach tool
  • Dark Force is an effective defensive/escape tool
  • Great normal throw range, can normal throw people outside of their throw range
  • Dashing offense is extremely difficult to mitigate with defensive tech. Only occurs at high-level play
  • Low execution barrier, making him the best go-to character for input/output & risk/reward in the roster
  • His neutral game opens up with meter utilizing ES Towers & ES Typhoon
  • 9MP is an incredible air-to-ground attack + an option select air throw
  • Slower than average wake-up, he is more vulnerable to ground chasing/oki
  • Slow walk speed
  • Approaches are limited, so he is more vulnerable to being zoned
  • Wide when standing & crouching, vulnerable to cross-ups
  • No invincibility on Reversal, more susceptible to being oppressed

Fairly standard st.LP. As with all standing light punches, you receive a renda bonus if you press the button twice. Good for stopping characters with hops, parabolic dashes, or instant air dashes if they are close. Abusing the renda bonus is necessary to give Anakaris a bad time, as the advantage on-block will be enough to go straight into long hop j.LP. In additon, the renda bonus is strong enough to go straight into 623KK.

Talk to the hand. Extremely good poke. If you don't know what to press as Sasquatch, this should probably be the button to press. It's almost as fast as most jabs in the games (most are 5f), but has a staggering amount of priority. Just like st.LP, you can use this to stop hops, parabolic dashes, or instant air dashes if they are close. The reward for doing so is much better, however.

Pretty good uppercut. This serves as your anti-air normal, but admittedly there won't be many usage of it as a proper anti-air as there are just generally more safe options. This button on-hit will always air reset the opponent, which will lead into one of Sasquatch's mixups afterwards.

Along with st.MP, this is one of your two option select buttons for anti-air. The angle of it is so great that it will catch MOST upbacks in the corner. This button will not catch Felicia in the corner, however; use st.HK instead.

High-hitting light kick. This move can be used as anti-hop, and if anything, is better than st.LP in that regard. The difference between st.LP and st.LK however is that this will not benefit from the renda bonus. Use this to tell pesky animals to sit down before hitting them with another mixup.

Apparently this has near and far frame data. Maybe someone will fill in that part one day.

For the most part, this serves the same purpose as st.MP in terms of anti-air, but overall inferior to st.MP in raw frame data. This isn't to say that this is a terrible move, as it does cover a higher angle than st.MP. As such, this is better for intercepting higher parabolic dashes or air dashes. Situational at most.

The anti-air hitbox is active on the 12th frame.

This move has a couple interesting properties. On the 8th frame it will go over lows, and even though Sasquatch is in the air, he is still considered grounded which means opponents cannot air block the anti-air.

This his lower body invulnerability, so you can cause some low attacks to whiff.

It's a standard crouching poke. This move is **NOT A LOW**; use st.LK for that. This normal's plus frames is good enough to stuff any attempt of mashing, and great for stagger.

This move can be used as a means to anti-air air dashes, especially Q-Bee's, but it's not really a great move to mash unlike st.MP. Just like cr.LP, it's not a low; use cr.MK for a low instead. Can be used for staggers and frame traps.

This move is definitively an anti-air, and if anything, slightly better than st.HP in the regard. If the opponent jumps bad, you can use this to swat them out of the sky and air reset them, leading to a 50/50 that the opponent obviously doesn't want.

Has utility in the corner for combos. You can use this as an ender instead of cr.HK to air reset them and lead into a quick and dirty mixup.

An amazing crouching low. Use this normal a lot, as it is the low you should be using at most given times. This move also has the benefit of moving Sasquatch slightly forward as he uses this, and has great plus frames. Good for staggering and keeping close to the opponent.

Sasquatch's sweep. This normal goes far, so much so that you can use this on round start. Use this to end your combos or get your mixup game started. Pretty negative on block. Opponents should not pushblock this if they are close.

Hitbox is positionally the same as neutral jump LP, but the hurtbox on the arm is positioned a bit further forward and higher.

Decent range, and downward trajectory on the hitbox. This is extremely useful for both jump ins, air chains and air whiffing.

Hitbox is positionally the same as neutral jump MP, but the hurtbox on the neck is positioned much further back and a bit lower. Due to how much further back it is I'd say it's superior to the neutral jump version.

Great air normal, use often. It works extremely well for option select air throws as well.

Hard knockdown on contact, no matter if the opponent is grounded or in the air. Good usage on long hops as either your first or second option, as this move does sport some great range.

This version is the one used when performing a hop.

Two-hit normal. This move is great for sticking to the opponent, but is arguably guard-cancel bait and easy to pushblock. This move can be used to crossup opponents from a short hop and long hop if timed correctly. This move will usually crossup most short crouchers from a short hop, so abuse it when you can.

Winds his fist up and unleashes a long punch. Goes further the longer you hold the button. The longer you hold the button, the more unsafe it becomes on block. ES version fully charged hits 3 times. This move is air-state unblockable.

Really useless move. Takes too long to start up, and the unsafeness of it makes it worthless. Funny enough Felicia's Rolling Buckler and Dancing Flash whiff during the windup frames of this move.

One of Sasquatch's two useful versions of this move. Its useful as an anti-air, though it is air blockable. Most character's won't be able to punish it on block unless they have a way of altering their air movement, and even then it can tend to be a bit of a tight punish. Still, it hits a nice part on the screen, comes out fast, and recovers surprisingly quickly. Useful in certain situations and matchups.

Not much to say about this version. It is plus on hit unlike his other two Typhoons, which may actually be punished.

(I'm not sure if the game will select the weaker or stronger version of a special if you don't have meter for ES, but I am considering using LK+MK or MK+HK on the basis on which button combination will give you MK Typhoon if you have no meter. With the idea that the game will select the version that gives you a decent frame advantage if you do not have meter for ES Big Typhoon. This is only if you somehow have issues paying attention to how much meter you currently have.)

The most useful version of Big Typhoon. Does massive damage and is great as a finishing move. While you are advantageous on hit, recovery is long, and you have a very good chance of losing pressure after knocking down with this move. Its generally best used when finishing an opponent off.

While it looks like it may have a decent anti-air hitbox, do not use it as such since it is still air blockable and the recovery is long.

As a guard cancel this move has 9 frames of invincibility, which makes it invincible past start up. This means will not lose or trade unlike the other two normal version guard cancels. Also, it is the safest version on block at -6, which is potentially punishable but not quite easily. Besides those advantages, the problems are numerous. You'll still be at -5 on hit afterwards, which is potentially punishable. You'll have to watch out for this completely whiffing on small crouching opponents due to the high hitbox. And even as the fastest version of Big Typhoon, it is still slow for a guard cancel and easily baited. In the end, the guard cancel LK Big Typhoon has a little bit of use, but you may as well push block instead.

The normal versions of Big Towers are very useful, and generally aren't given enough credit by the player base who ignores them for ES Big Towers. The anti-air hitboxes are great, and its active for ages. The only real downside is they are air blockable, and probably only a little bit more easily punishable on an air block than ES Big Towers.

Its use as an anti-air is a bit matchup dependant. Generally it is extremely strong against Jedah, Morrigan, and a few other characters who have to end up committing to their air movement. Tossing out the super active HK Big Towers means you don't even really have to time it either. I've seen it work consistently on Demitri as well since none of his normals can get below the hitbox down to the hurtbox.

The plus and block frames on hit and guard listed up above don't really tell the full story, since that is on grounded opponents, and this does not have much utility outside of anti-airs.

On an air hit, this move does a knockdown.

This is the move. Usually referred to as 'Ice Tower', it is one of the most frustrating things to deal with when fighting Sasquatch. It is multi-functional, since it works as: An anti-air(but still air blockable), a full screen punish, and a combo tool. Hell, I even just mash it as a reversal sometimes when I see my opponents timing is slightly off.

It travels full screen extremely fast, both in front of and behind Sasquatch. This can be used to punish people throwing bad fireballs, or just jumping around pressing buttons at any position on the screen.

Advantage from a knockdown on hit is huge. You get plenty of time to dash in from full screen and start applying pressure. Plus it does tons of damage to boot. This is not something you want to be hit by.

As a combo tool, I've seen it used occasionally to get a knockdown after a Big Brunch, but when they don't want to deal with the poor advantage on knockdown that ES Big Typhoon gives. Though this is at a price of less damage.

An absolutely amazing command grab. When it connects, the opponent will be frozen and Sasquatch can hop in to get a free combo. This move is incredibly fast, and easily lets you confirm into an ES Big Typhoon for big damage. The only downside is that it is one of the few throws that always gives a whiff animation. The whiff animation is long enough that if someone neutral jumps they will have time to land on Sasquatch's head and punish.

There is not any difference between the normal versions, and the ES Big Brunch does slightly more damage and freezes the opponent for longer.

The main thing to keep in mind with this move is every character has a different freeze timing, and distance Sasquatch spits them out at. It is not at all consistent between characters.

Ice Beam. Generally ES Big Towers is favored over this by most players as it initially comes out much faster and is generally safer against opponents jumping in on you randomly. At full screen, I'm not quite sure which would reach the other end first, but I am inclined to say ES Big Towers would or it would be about even as Big Freezer doesn't travel quite as fast as it may seem.

There are a few characters I'll occasionally use this on from full screen, such as Lei-Lei, Demitri, Morrigan or Jedah. Usually its just if they are jumping around doing dumb stuff. This move does slightly more damage than ES Big Towers, but its hard to say if you get any REAL benefit out of using it.

Not sure of the comparative advantage on hit you get from this fullscreen compared to ES Big Towers either.

The Puddle. Unblockable, super-active, character-detached ground grab. A strong move, especially in the corner and the opponent is up-backing just outside of your anti-air range. They'll land on the ice sheet and be unable to escape. You can also set it up with a s.MP canceled into this. There isn't much of a gap to poke out, especially if you canceled from a s.MP that air resets. Setups from s.MP aren't exactly solid though, as in all cases if they notice it, they can simple hold up forward and punish Sasquatch. On defense, make sure you don't try up backing away from it in the corner. You'll just fall back on top of it as you land due to how super-active the move is.

EX Command throw. If Sasquatch didn't have Big Brunch, this would actually be a strong move. It does a ton of damage and has a great throw range. But when you can do comparable damage or more with Big Brunch and gain meter from the follow up hits, you really don't have a good reason to be using this. On a miss, it always gives a throw whiff animation, like the rest of his command throws.

  • Big Resistor (Light or Medium Version/LP+LK or MP+MK: Super Armor: Big Resistor. Adds super armor (not hyper armor). Useful for getting out of traps. A decent option to use when being pressured, but only works on the ground. It also allows you to chain more attacks when dashing.

Movement

Walk: The forward walk speed is fairly average, but his backwards walk is a little slower.

Dash: Sasquatch takes a big leap at his opponent. Very easy to hit him out of a regular dash, but Sasquatch also has a shorthop. (Forward, Forward, Back). It shortens the total distance of the hop, but increases the speed greatly. A good portion of where his pressure game comes from.
