Important Moves
5K: Super-Armored, delayable, standing overhead that grants you a full combo on hit.
j.K: A risky but good neutral tool, closes the gap but leaves you open to punish. Also an important move for many combos, due to the ability to link a j.L afterwards with good positioning.
j.G: Overpowering spacing tool. Controls massive ground space, can beat jump ins and lead into massive damage without much commitment. Can be beaten by dashing.

Basic fast poke. Nothing special, but it does what it's supposed to. Prorate: 95%.

moves you forward a lot, making it great for whiff punishes. Will get stuffed by savvy opponents if you try it in neutral, be careful.

Charged values in [brackets]. Super-armored, holdable, knife stab that becomes an overhead if you charge it (doesn't need to be fully charged to become overhead). Fully charged, this does a crap ton of damage and groundbounces. You can combo 2H into a full charge 5K in the corner to do a lot of damage.

Rather slow start up but it's a nice neutral tool, an hitscan projectile that wall bounces up close and knocks down full screen. Whiffs if you're too close to the corner. It has an hitbox on the gun during start up. Damage is not effected by Proration (Always does 160).

Good anti-air, starts rather fast and covers a straight line, it also works as a launcher / combo tool. 1st hit is not effected by proration (always does 40). Prorate 95%.

One of your main approach and combo tools, allowing you to burst movement and offense with the possibility of crossing up. You can use it more than once in a jump through cancelling another attack in the air, for example j.K > j.L > j.K.
Be wary of using this too often, however. A keen opponent will catch on and punish you hard for misusing it.

Rather fast, shoots down and forward, has slight pushback on whiff and a bit more on block or hit, can be used for neutral. Ground bounces and can link into j.K. Damage is not effected by Proration (Always does 190).

Instant knockdown, no combos. The hitbox on this is massive, making tick throws very easy.

2K must be inputted AFTER 5G has landed(hit or block) in order to cancel into it!
