Vampire Savior/Gallon/Strategy
Strategies
Gallon doesn't have the insane high/low mixup of the top tiers. What you want to do with Gallon is to zone/poke with his powerful pokes, mixup with throws and Beast Cannon, then for every opening go for his powerful ES Beast Cannon Juggle for the win.
Poking:
On the ground, use 2LP (quick, safe), 2MK (cancelable), 2MP (fast, good range) and 5HP. Use 2HP and close HK to beat jumps. If you predict a jump, 2MP is usually your best friend, as it's really fast and safe.
Gallon's jump is incredible. j.HK and j.MK are your friend in the air. Use them to keep people away from you.
From a distance, remember you have your dash to create overheads.
Pressure/mixup:
Use your long range ground pokes and j.MK, j.HP, j.HK to keep the opponent from jumping. Any j.HP that connects leads to whatever big combos you want.
Throws:
66LK, j.LK and 2LK are good ticks. Also, remember that cancellable normal xx 2KKK is great for getting in for a throw.
Finally, add Beast Cannon to your game. Don't activate it randomly. Find an opening when you jump (if they're afraid of your kicks) or use the ES version (faster, more followups). Beast Cannon can set up a lot of ambiguous crossups and even unblockables.
