Gameplay
Widely considered the best character, Avu has it all: quick long range sword strikes, very fast specials, and a beautiful beard.
Strengths |
Weaknesses
|
- Arabian Drill is the best move in the entire game: extremely fast, goes almost full screen, plus on both hit and block, and can "combo" into a throw on block.
- 5L is one of the best normals in the entire game, very quick and long reaching low that can easily stuff approaches and pressure defenders.
- Can still fight well enough even without a weapon.
|
- Poor anti-air normals, which get even worse without a weapon.
- Arabian Burner can anti-air and destroy most projectiles, but it will more often than not leave you wide open for a while.
- Avu's sword gives opponents the most range out of all weapons.
