Haggar
In a nutshell
Haggar is a slow, brute of a grappler with some interesting tricks and one of the best assists in the game. His game-plan revolves around slowly stalking his enemies before surprising them with a grab or a lead pipe. Haggar's lariat move is unique in that it takes some of his health to perform (just like Final Fight!). This must be a trade-off for the fact that the move is fully invincible from head to toe until its recovery time. If slowly stalking your opponents and then scoring huge damage is your game, or you want the only fully invincible assist in the game on your team, give Haggar a spin.

Strategy
Tips and Tricks
- Haggar's Hoodlum Launcher can be a hit or a grab, and they look the same on startup. This will be Haggar's main mid-range mixup.
- Scoring a Double Lariat is a lot bigger a deal than it seems. Even though you lose some health, you can super cancel this move into either Haggar Press or Rapid Fist supers. If you go with Rapid Fist, you can launch and add more to your combo after to really make people regret coming into Haggar's space.
- Try jumping forward and pressing {{#motion: d + h }} right away. Not only is this a very fast overhead, but if the pipe hits, you'll score a {{#motion: groundbounce }} and the combo of your choice.
- Haggar may need the right assist to help him close in, but do not discount his air normals. Most of his air normals will remain active until he lands, keeping a threatening hitbox active underneath him.
- Haggar can Kara-cancel his crouching Heavy attack into some of his moves such as his Flying Piledriver grab, his Rapid Fire Fist Hyper combo and his Hyper Haggar Slam level 3 Hyper combo. This adds a great deal of distance to these attacks, giving you a much greater chance of landing these close range moves.
