Battle Craze!!/Ajit/L-Side

Overview

Playstyle

L-Ajit is great if you're sick of the limit in damage or your opponent is not throwing many projectiles. CT granting him craze meter is useful, but you will need to manage that with your craze cancels in order to get the best use out of it.
Pros	Cons
*All-Rounder: L-Ajit generally has a pretty strong answer for a lot of situations and a good way to pick up off of them. Neutral: Has some of the strongest neutral in the game with good fireballs and EX fireball to shutdown other zoning attempts. Control of Craze Guage: His C-Tech can increase his Craze Gauge. High damage: Using EX moves increase damage. combining this with "Cobra Minigun" restands can let Ajit melt opponents.	Small normals: L-Ajit's normals are generally a little stubby. Reliance on Craze Gauge: Since EX moves drain the Craze Gauge there may be less opportunities to take advantage of its utility.

Statistics

Trait	"Fuel to the Fire": Ajit has access to EX moves with the use of Craze Gauge. Consuming Craze Gauge grants Ajit an 6% damage bonus for each Gauge spent. This bonus decays over time.

Specials

Lion's Sunspot (236P)

Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect non-EX 120 Mid 16 - - - - Dire Crumple Basic fireball, LP travels slower and SP travels faster. EX 86-29-29 (144) Mid 16 - - - - Dire Crumple Multi-hit fireball that does more damage. Beats most fireballs in the game. Due to it's multi-hit properties it has better advantage on block because it continues to hit their block as Ajit finishes the animation.

Roc Twister (214K,K,K,K, air OK) Roc Twister! Roc Twister!

SK 96,16,16,16 (144) Mid, Overhead (last hit) 13, 6 (aerial) - - - - Dire Ground Bounce (last hit) The full 4 hit tatsu. Worse on block but does more damage and has better carry. Generally more useful as you can usually be lower than the opponent on the floor splat, allowing you to extend off it. EX 27,27,27,27,31,34 (174) Mid, Overhead (last hit) 6 - - - - Dire Ground Bounce (last hit) Goes pretty high like the light version, adds an extra 2 hits and does more overall damage. Always does every hit.

Tiger Strike (623P)

Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect LP 128 Mid 4 - - +15 -25 Dire N/A (forces Tiger's Whip) Ajit's Dragon Punch, this version specifically is better for combos as Ajit doesn't go as high into the air as<br the heavy version. This version also doesn't have any invuln. Can be followed up by Tiger's Whip. SP 128 Mid 4 - - +15 -33 Dire N/A (forces Tiger's Whip) An actual reversal, invuln to everything except supers on frame 1. Can be followed up by Tiger's Whip. EX 150-18 (169) Mid 9 - - +46 -21 Dire Ground Bounce Also a reversal, does more damage than the other dps even without the forced Tiger's Whip. Extremely plus on hit.

Tiger's Whip (623P~P)	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect 17 Mid 4 - - - - Dire Ground Bounce Follow-up after Tiger Strike, can't be done on guard.

Dragon's Blaze (63214P)

Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect LP 136 Mid 16 - - +2 -3 Dire Wall Bounce Big punch, use this in block strings as it's mostly safe on block. Also low profiles. SP 152 Mid 22 - - +29 -2 Dire Wall Bounce Bigger punch, use this in combos in the corner after 6LP. Also low profiles. EX 167 Mid 16 - - +29 -3 Dire Wall Bounce Has the speed of the light version with the on hit properties of the heavy version

Cobra Gatling (421P)	Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect non-EX 116 Mid 17 - - +2 -20 Dire Power Launch Cool looking rapid punches. This is the move you want to use your Dire effect on. EX 157 Mid 15 - - +4 -20 Dire Crumple Even cooler looking rapid punches, restands for mixups.

Supers

All-Out Attack

Solar Flare (236236P)	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect 200 Mid 9 - - +46 -25 Dire N/A Big Palm strike with startup invulnerability. Probably best as a raw punish rather than a combo ender as it's his lowest damage super.

Exodus (236236K)	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect 240 Mid 14 - - +24 -13 Dire N/A KoF style rush super, use this super to end juggles.

Heatstroke (214214K, air OK)	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect 248 Mid 17 - - +24 -23 Dire N/A Air super. Highest damage out of all of his other level 1 supers but not very consistent in juggles.

All-Out EX

Exodus EX (236236KK)	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect 304 Mid 13 - - +24 -13 Dire N/A Ajit's level 2 super. Basically the exact same as Exodus but with more damage.

Pillar of Fire, Pillar of Soul (214214PP)	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv Hit Adv Block Punish State Dire Effect 392 Mid 8 - - +24 -29 Dire N/A Ajit's level 3 super. Ajit's highest damaging combo ender, far less recovery on whiff for whatever reason.
