Lore
Toxic is the infamous graffiti queen of Shine City and ruler of its underworld. She sports a huge mechanical arm, loaded with spray cans, which she uses to compete and paint wherever she pleases. Toxic has a network of graffiti writers spread out over the city that give her the lowdown on all the happenings in the streets.
Gameplay
While Toxic is considered to have a below average angle spread and some of the weakest movement stats in the game, she is bolstered by a powerful and versatile tool in her spray, providing her with mix-up options for a wide variety of situations.
Spray activation consumes 4 bars of meter and can be used during hitstop or while clinging to the wall. The regular activation shoots the spray in a straight line in the direction of the currently held angle. This is limited by the type of attack being used, for example if using smash the spray will always come out at the smash angle, whereas using spike will give a choice between the three spike angles.
Spray can also be emitted by pressing swing while in a wall cling, being placed at the location of the cling. This can be a good defensive option and is also used to double spray.
When the spray is on the ground, it's hitbox is large enough to cover Toxic while she is crouching in it. However, when the spray is on the wall, her hitbox is too tall to be completely covered.
Activating special or taunting will remove any existing spray on the screen.
| Toxic is Lethal League Blaze's dedicated trap character. While Toxic lacks strength in raw angles and movement, she makes it up with versatile and unique special that allows her to set up pressure and create tricky knowledge checks. |

|---|---|---|
|
Standard pizza angle. Can slip over heads up close and forces tap charges against the wall. | |
| Angle | 57° | |
Ground Down
| Ground Down | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Similar to Raptor's ground down angle, Toxic can use this to wrap the ball around the stage and create complex parrybaits. Sprays used at this angle will not be triggered by up angle, making it a convenient timing mix up. | |
| Angle | -25° | |

| Air Down | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Fairly standard angle, as seen on many other characters. | |
| Angle | -35° | |
Smash
| Smash | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Toxic's smash angle is about as vanilla as they come, although worth noting that it is marginally different to the down angle, meaning you'll need to consider the better option for the situation. As expected, Toxic is less keen on using smash angle for sprays, as she is unable to mix up the release angle unlike with a regular swing or spike. | |
| Angle | -41° | |
Forward Spike
| Forward Spike | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Forward spike is fairly niche for Toxic and generally has a fairly poor rotation on stages. While it's not the most effective as an offensive threat it still functions as a creative spray angle and ball control tool. | |
| Angle | -21° | |
Back Spike
| Back Spike | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Back spike is the stronger of the two spike angles, mostly used for ball control and as a tricky timing mix up. Unfortunately, just being stronger than forward spike doesn't make it actually good though. | |
| Angle | -106° | |
