Introduction

Archer is a form change character, switching from a rushdown character to a zoner using a bow and arrow. He has high damaging combos and has a unique cancel through the use of UBW chant. Archer is very good vs pushblock which allows him to stay on top of his opponent once he gets in (because many of his sword attacks move him forward)
