Profile

A LIVING LEGEND

Texas has led a storied career of adventure and carries great pride for cattlekind, symbolized by the yoke and star he bears on his back. His place as Head Bull was earned with hard work, sacrifice, and good ol’ fashioned charm!

As Arizona’s father and with the whole of Foenum at stake, he yearns to do his part in support of his daughter’s quest to save the world. So despite his age, he sets out on his own for one last journey, leaving care of the clan to his wife Minnesota, before settling down for good. (Promise!!)

Wielding twin cowbells attached by ropes to his mighty yoke, Texas uses mass and momentum to send them flying towards his opponents, reeling them into range of his heaviest strikes. Everybody knows, you don’t mess with Texas!

Gameplan

Texas is a grappler with an array of strong options - including an armored approach, up-close plus-frames, a true 50/50, huge buttons with surprisingly quick recovery, and long ranged disjoints to blow the opponent up even at fullscreen. Any touch can lead to tons of damage and a powerful restand, meaning just a few lost interactions against Texas may spell the end of a round.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Strong Ranged Tools: Many of Texas's normals cover a huge amount of space and convert into high damage combos if they hit, and his stomp and cowbells provide a presence at fullscreen that's scary to contest. While these options are generally fairly slow, they can be difficult or impossible to punish when spaced well. Powerful Mixups: Texas has many powerful mixup tools, including a fast and high damage command grab, an anti-air which is unblockable when rising, and a plus on block low. 2D Followup's restand effect also allows Texas to turn a max JD combo into oki, giving him more opportunities to force the opponent to guess without sacrificing damage. Massive Damage: Texas's most optimal combos do enormous amounts of damage, allowing him to theoretically 3 touch or even 2 touch some characters with enough meter. High Health: Texas has the highest health in the game, at 5500. Great Abare: Despite being the only character in the game without a 5 frame 5A, Texas boasts some excellent abare tools, including his 4 frame command grab, lows that cover shorthops, and his large normals that can make it difficult to approach him or attempt to whiff punish. In particular, Texas Smash when combined with Instant Block allows Texas to exploit openings for reversal that no other character can.

Limited Mobility: With no forward dash and a slow walk speed, Texas can have trouble closing in distance. He does have an armored command run to help, but it has large startup and the armor will break after 3 hits, with Texas taking first hit damage for each one, giving it a fair amount of risk. Awkward Backdash: Despite having many invulnerability frames, the long, uncancellable animation on Texas's backdash gives it limited use, weakening his defense. Big Body: Texas's hurtbox is taller (when standing) and much wider than the standard size, and has an awkwardly placed center line near the front of his body. As a result, it can be hard for Texas to deal with ambiguous crossups, fuzzy overheads, and certain moves like Arizona's lasso that can take advantage of his size. Charge: Similarly to Paprika and Pom, the input overlap of 6A with [4]6X (Rodeo Run) can cause problems, particularly when trying to deal with airborne pressure.

Movement

Walk: Texas's default walk speed is quite slow, about the same as Oleander's forward, and even slower backward.

Dashes: Texas has no forward dash at all, but a unique backdash with a longer than usual invulnerability frames and total animation length.

Rodeo Run: [4]6X is a cancellable command run that propels Texas forward at incredible speed, roughly equivalent to Arizona's forward run.

Jumps: Like his daughter, Texas can jump at three different heights - with a normal jump, a shorthop, and a super jump.

Launches the opponent slightly on hit, making confirms a bit awkward. Good neutral tool, being disjointed and whiffing about as fast as an A normal. It can also be whiff-cancelled into 2BB, making whiff punishing it very scary. Good pressure tool as well, having several cancel options and being plus on block. Useful for catching the prejump of opponents trying to escape your command grab. Due to the hitbox near his face that extends far vertically above his crouching hurtbox and being faster than his 6A, this move is also usually Texas's best anti-air against shorthopping opponents. 2BB 90 Low - 9 5 14 vs. Grounded 6 Until Knockdown SKD 6 17 -1 -20 40 0.95 vs. Airborne 23 +5 A followup to 2B that gives you...

Magic

---

Texas's magic is filled through Bullseye, which occurs when one of the moves below hits at the tip, where the bell is. Magic can then be used on Followup, which is done by pressing the D button again. Each Cowbell has a different Followup, which consumes 1 Magic, and can be done regardless of whether or not Bullseye occurred. All Followups force 20% damage reduction on the rest of the combo.

Bullseye will also extend the hitstun of Cowbell, and pull the opponent towards Texas rather than away, as well as allow the Cowbell to be cancelled into other Cowbells, or into his [4]6 Rodeo Run.

Cowbells will not cancel into other cowbells if they have already been used once since the last followup or other non-cowbell move. So, for example, something like j.DD 6D 5D 2D 6D will not work due to the second 6D.

Whiffs on up-close crouchers, but far-away opponents aren't safe, nor can they easily jump over this, or punish it on block. Landing a 5D Bullseye can provide full, high-damage combos, granting Texas a highly threatening presence even from very long range. Launches the opponent away from Texas with a non-Bullseye hit, and toward Texas with a Bullseye hit, giving different utility for each. Can be cancelled into from other successful Bullseyes by inputting 4D. 5DD - - Stagger Damage Scaled to 80% - - - vs. Grounded - - +80 (Stagger) - - - - 20 - vs. Airborne Instantly pulls the opponent in for a Stagger.

Bullseye is very generous and easy to set up for this Cowbell. Examples include after a 5D Bullseye, or after a 2C xx Stomp. After a successful Bullseye on an opponent who is somewhat airborne, Texas can link afterwards, usually into 5B or 2C. Essential for his stronger combos. As great as this move (and its Followup) is in combos, it is not the best as a mixup. It's among the slowest overheads in the game, hitting crouchers on frame 31, and moving the camera abruptly to make itself even more reactable. Very risky, but rewarding. This move usually doesn't connect a standing opponent until the 5th active frame, so in practice it's effectively -12 on block, making it very difficult for some characters to punish at the edge of its range. The move also moves Texas's hurtbox backward quite a bit during startup, so it can sometimes cause whiff punishes on opponents trying to poke him from the edge of their range. 2DD - - Restand Damage Scaled to 80% - - - vs. Grounded - - +24 - - - - 200 - vs. Airborne Causes a unique state known as a "Restand". Very good to extend combos at the cost of adding a lot of Juggle Decay to your opponent. This state bends the rules of TFH's Juggle Decay system, being able to be used multiple times per combo, and allowing Texas to keep the opponent standing even after the JD bar is maxed out. An excellent combo ender that gives you a command grab/low mixup.

Among the more damaging Level 1 supers, and relatively quite resistant to damage scaling - although it leaves Texas further away than he'd usually like to be. In the corner, the pushback from this move can be avoided by performing it from a small distance away instead of at point blank. Because all of Texas's normals are prohibited from super-cancelling during startup and he has no 236 motion specials to cancel out of, Texas cannot kara-cancel into super with two buttons staggered slightly apart. For this reason it may be prudent to exercise extra precision or use a macro for more consistent supers.

If you're feeling particularly evil, it is possible to use a special move with slow startup to bait the opponent into blocking, and then cancel it into Level 3 right before it actually connects. The move doesn't require a perfect 360 motion as long as forward, down, back, up, and forward inputs are present in that order, so even something like 62486XX will suffice. The input buffer for this move seems to be shorter than usual though, so the motion needs to be performed fairly quickly and not too long before activation. An attempt that's too slow will usually result in a Texas Smash instead, which isn't the worst outcome considering Level 3 in effect a stronger version of it.

The user will also be locked out of gaining super meter for 5 seconds, stacking up to 10 seconds if cross-canter is used repeatedly. This can be a strong option to escape pressure, but don't overdo it - it can be thrown during startup and is extremely punishable on block or whiff.
