6B
14 0 19 - - - Polimar's alternate dash, when close to an opponent it'll crossup. So you can do A -> B -> 2B -> P -> 6B -> A for a dirty crossup. And given it's a new combo your partner will refresh.

Properties Notes
3-Stage Reaction Kick
623X -> X -> 214X
9 - - - - Hard Knockdown (on last kick) Yes, all three inputs need to be done for the attack to complete. Okayish anti-air, can be used for relaunches. Can be cancelled into with one emblem Usable in air.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
17 - - - 45 - Build the emblems you see at the bottom (or ducks if you're in the know). After building an emblem Polimar can perform a few actions.
  • Doing nothing will set polimar back to neutral, There is no defensive option here so this is the most dangerous
  • A will cause polimar to 2C. This can be cancelled with baroque or into another special
  • B will perform 6C. This can be cancelled with baroque or into another special
  • C will make polimar dash up and perform this forward throw.

After building an emblem polimar gains the ability to cancel specials. With three emblems, if I wanted to take a route of Razor-kicks -> razor kicks -> Storm Kamae -> Hurricane Destruction fist This would only be possible with two emblems minimum.

All three emblems are required for Polimar's level 3
