Storm

Stormface.jpg

In a nutshell

Storm is a character with good rush down and decent keepaway, but may need an assist to be truly effective at either. Her normals are a bit odd and slow, but will reward those that learn them. Her Hail Storm super may be the best assist killing super in the game, so calling an assist against Storm is always a risk. Storm's other huge strength is in the chip damage department. Pair her with a meter building assist and you may not have to fight at all. If you want a character that has a large variety of ways to be effective depending on her team, Storm should fit right in.

Tips and Tricks

  • Tap {{#motion: u , u + atk }} with Storm for really fast high attacks. This uses her float to cancel her jump on the way up, and drops her back down.
  • Hail Storm does some of the best chip damage in the game. Using 4 of these in X-factor lv3 should kill just about any character from full life.
  • Elemental Rage doesn't seem very good, as it has a small hit zone and does lower damage that her other supers. You can score this for free after her ground throws for free, though, so it should not be ignored.
