Plasma Sword/Saturn

Introduction

Overview

(Insert brief description about character and how they play, other details)

Strengths

Weaknesses

236 K Drill: Saturn's Drill is one of the most annoying and potent mid-range pokes in the game, capable of crossing up standing and crouching opponents depending upon range, and is completely safe if blocked. It hurts pretty bad for a single hit special move and, if that wasn't enough, the air version has invincibility at startup. All versions are difficult to intercept, if not impossible for some characters, and it is one of the easiest to enact knowledge checks in the game. Standing super confirm: Saturn has a few good confirm strings into super, allowing him to play a safe and stable game if he so chooses. Or, he can spend his meter on... Doll Bomb: Doll Bomb is a powerful Plasma Field, as he can not only reap gigantic damage from it, but can also combo afterwards if he structures his Doll Bomb combo correctly. By doing this, Saturn will build back some of the meter he spent to activate Doll Bomb. Incredible mid range: Even without Drill, Saturn has a powerful set of mid-range tools like 3A, 3B, 2B, 5AAA, and more.

46B: Like Bilstein, Saturn is cursed with a bad 46B move that occasionally comes out when you mean to do something else. Though his is a little better due to speed and cancelability, it is still unsafe 236A+B Combo Stability at Range: There are some ranges where 236A+B's last hit won't combo correctly, and this can potentially hurt Saturn hard if his opponent is aware. Ground Movement: Saturn's non-hop sidestep (towards his front) is tied for the worst forward box-step cancel window in the game at 16 frames. Always try to keep track of what direction Saturn is facing and only step in the direction that gives him his hop animation.
