Psychic Force 2012/Gudeath
Introduction
Gudeath is the resident grappler of this shmup/fighter hybrid. Yes, that is a weird thing to write. Gudeath has some pretty overwhelming strengths; arguably the greatest damage potential of any character thanks to his Meteor Butcher command throw (360°+L), which also gives him a scary close game and the most damaging BnB in the entire game. In fact, Gudeath can easily overrun a health bar off of one solid read. His Asteroid Belt (360°+S) install only adds to his damage, surrounding him in debris that gives him more hits in his combos or can be fired at the opponent one at a time or all at once. His Gravity Infinity (466+S) creates a black hole that holds the opponent in place while battering them with debris from all directions, forcing them to Barrier Guard. He even has a great anti-zoning tool with Meteor Hammer (46+L). Unfortunately, Gudeath's weaknesses are just as pronounced with what is easily the weakest zoning game in all of PF2012. Despite multiple zoning options, they're generally quite slow and easy to deal with. Just as well, the above mentioned moves have a significant amount of startup (with the exception of his command throw obviously). Despite this Gudeath is still quite solid thanks to a good Quick Dash despite his weight, as well as the ability to cancel his Quick Dash or Slide Dash into a Meteor Butcher. If you prefer grapplers, this is your man.
