From SuperCombo Wiki

About

This sourpuss octopus is always looking for inspiration.

Playstyle

Squidward is an oddball character with a ton of amazing tools. He has great damage output, tricky movement, and has some of the best edgeguarding tools in the game. He's a tricky character to learn well, but, much like the character himself, with mastery comes great power, as Squidward becomes one of the strongest air characters in the game.

If you like tricky movement and several strong and unpredictable tools, Squidward is the character for you!

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Absurd Damage output: Squidward can do a crazy amount of damage with his aerial chains in under 10 seconds. And that's without rage!
  • Suffocating juggles: Squidward's aerial game is one of the best. He can cover an amazing amount of space and does insane amounts of damage off of one chain.
  • Rage: Down Special makes Squidward way faster and stronger. This is integral to his combo game, and makes him absolutely impossible to avoid up close. Count your blessings if he grabs you.
  • Bold and Brash: Squidward's Side Special is fairly easy to confirm into and, if the strongest version is pulled, will kill the opponent <70%.
  • Bike: Up special is extremely versatile both as a recovery tool and a movement tool. It can also combo into itself if slime-cancelled, if you're looking for a funny combo.
  • Meter tank: Squidward gains meter very fast due to his combo game, and will usually have at least 1 bar on deck at all times.
  • Difficult to master: Squidward is one of the more tricky characters in the game to maneuver with due to his odd gravity and use of double jump cancelling. Rage makes him fall faster, which accentuates the problem further. In addition, a lot of Squidward's stronger tools require strong knowledge of his toolkit, and are difficult to hit point-blank. Therefore, Squidward requires a lot of time and effort to maximize his potential in the match.
  • Not the best at neutral: Squidward doesn't have a lot of far-away options aside from Neutral Special.
  • Meh ground strongs: Aside from Forward Strong, his ground strongs are somewhat committal. You might want to use them as a last resort options.
  • Meter-heavy: A lot of Squidward's stronger confirms require a slime cancel, which can tank your meter fairly fast if you are reckless.
