==Introduction==
Casshan (or Casshern) is from the anime of the same name, and fights along his robot dog Friender.


Casshan is a character with high damage, but some strong setups if he can get into the right position.  He also possesses the powerful RDP knee, the swiss army knife of moves.  His stubby normals and average movement means he can struggle in the neutral, but if you find the correct openings, he can end a match quickly.

* The {{TvCInput|C}} version has Friender stop at Casshan’s position and breathe fire. Casshan is free to act during this, making it useful for pressure or combo setups.

As mentioned in the opener, Casshan has stubby buttons and only average movement, which means his neutral is only ok. However, he has a couple strong and advantageous moves. first off, his divekick can be used at varying timings (after jump, air dash, double jump, 2nd air dash), and as long as you don't super jump you can cover it with assists for a strong approach. He can also use the knee in neutral, since it blows up any approaches other than lows, and can catch enemies blocking low if you're close enough, then baroqued for safety.

Introduction

Casshan (or Casshern) is from the anime of the same name and fights alongside his robot dog Friender.

Casshan is a character with high damage, but some strong setups if he can get into the right position. He also possesses the powerful RDP knee, the swiss army knife of moves. His stubby normals and average movement mean he can struggle in neutral, but if you find the correct openings, he can end a match quickly.

Gameplay

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Hits HARD, has best baroque boost in the game
  • Knee has unflinchable armor, stops nearly everything in the game
  • Friender comes in and does his thing, doesn’t care what attack the opponent is doing at times
  • Dive kick is dominating
  • Boulder Chop has an extremely good hitbox and can stop a lot of incoming
  • Has great tools for dealing with giants
  • Strong Unblockable
  • Normals are okayish
  • No real mixups, Knee and Friender only go so far
  • Supers hit hard but require a lot of setup
  • Has the most linear air dash, slightly difficult to perform any crossups because of it

10 - - - 3200 Low A standard sweep, knocks down, and is Casshan’s only low-hitting move. Use this to mix up with your knee special in blockstrings, making it useful even though it’s not great for combos. You can pick up off of it with baroque or by using his DP chop to hit OTG.

 20/20/19(84) - 47/46/47 - 3600/4000/4400(10400) - An advancing punch.
  • The light version keeps an opponent grounded, so it’s useful for baroque extensions.
  • The medium one combos off

TVC-H.png   and staggers, so it’s very useful for optimal combos.

  • The heavy version pops up off the ground and can be held to charge. If fully charged, the heavy version is unblockable, and Casshan will grab the opponent and throw them to the opposite wall for a wall bounce. If Casshan has his back to the corner, he can juggle off this; otherwise, he can hit OTG afterward with a divekick. *The charged version can also break armor/grab giants.*

 18/18/23 - - - 3200/3200/5055 - Casshan’s special dive kick, one of his best approaches, even though it can be awkward to combo after.
  • The light version travels at a steep downward angle and will keep an enemy grounded, so you can baroque or use certain assists to convert into a standing BnB.
  • The medium version travels at closer to a 45-degree angle and will pop up enemies if it hits them standing. Both versions hit OTG and can cancel into

  • The

TVC-H.png   version is a hitgrab drill kick. It does several hits and gives a hard knockdown. You can cancel into TVC-623.png TVC-AT.png TVC-AT.png  

, but be careful not to cross up your inputs. *The drill kick will also break armor/hit giants.*

 3 - - - 3600/800/6668 - Casshan calls his robot dog Friender for assistance.
  • The

TVC-L.png   version hits overhead and comes from above and behind Casshan, making it hard for enemies to interrupt. It’s useful for covering Casshan’s approaches and can technically set up unblockables.

  • The

TVC-M.png   version has Friender running across the screen, and if it bites a grounded enemy, it latches on for a long hit stun that’s easy to confirm into a combo. Mashing can release the bite, but Casshan can often follow up before that happens. *The B version can also break hyper armor and stun giants.*

  • The

version has Friender stop at Casshan’s position and breathe fire. Casshan is free to act during this, making it useful for pressure or combo setups.

 16/17/19 - - - 2964/3588/4212 Overhead Casshan’s Knee, a very powerful move. It hits overhead, has a high/mid guard point, and gives a hard knockdown.

The heavier versions move farther, with the TVC-L.png   version staying in place. Since they give hard knockdown, you can cancel into TVC-623.png TVC-AT.png TVC-AT.png  

for a follow-up or baroque into a combo.

 15+3 - - - 12258 - Casshan punches twice, the second hit staggering, then pauses, and launches. If the third punch hits, it goes into a canned animation where Casshan and Friender both attack the enemy. Difficult to hit outside of a grounded combo, which means it’s not very useful unless you’re trying to finish someone off before they burst. *The last hit works on giants for some reason.*

, but is much more versatile, making it Casshan’s go-to super.

. It can be used for burst baiting but lacks invulnerability until the hit. *Usable on Giants.*

The Basics

As mentioned in the opener, Casshan has stubby buttons and average movement, which means his neutral is only ok. However, he has some strong and advantageous moves. His divekick can be used at varying timings (after jump, air dash, double jump, second air dash), and as long as you don’t super jump, you can cover it with assists for a strong approach. His knee can be used in neutral as it blows up any approaches other than lows, catching enemies blocking low if close enough, then baroque for safety.
