Introduction
Cecil is a fast, defensive character. He has overall low health but he makes up for it by having a ton of crossup options built into his moveset. As a trade off, his health is slightly lower than average and he lacks solid pressure strings and mixup on block. That doesn't make him any less threatening, as he is capable of high damage combos off of a well placed punish (6C da gawd).
Health Points
7633 - Below Average
Front Run
(66) - A teleport. It is actually a special (or a command normal, depending how you look at it). To make up for it, Cecil's "walk" is a full blown sprint. This applies to (4) as well.
Backdash
(44) - Teleports Cecil into the air, really close to the ground.

One of the best normals in the entire game in terms of range. Cecil's best poke in neutral.

Jump cancelable. Also literally the only normal that chains naturally into 5D on hit (outside of CH).

Mid, -9f
Very unsafe, but again, not punishable at certain ranges.
Hits 4 times. Builds up the guard break meter a lot (half a bar).
| 2A
Low; +2f
Low version of 5A and it's mashable, thus making it a better option on block.
|
| 2B
Low; +3f
Safe on block, great range. A go-to counter poke.
| 2C
Mid => High; -6f
Purely an anti-air. Air unblockable. Catches enemies who try to crossup

Not jump cancellable, but floats the enemy on hit.
Not cancellable into any ground specials (without meter) or normals.
