Basic Attacks + When I use

===========================================================================

Ground Light (Attack)

===========================================================================


Netural Light

Direction : Diagonal (Upside Forward)

DMG : 17~18


Mostly use this for cover my face/upward
It has short start frame, so It can be used as counter attack.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Side Light

Direction : Forward


Extra Hit occurs when it hits

DMG : (8~9) + (12~13)

Main combo startup
80% of player dodge or jump after this, IDK why but it's good to read and punish.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Down Light

Direction : Down Diagonal Forward

Tips : This Commend moves character forward, it means you can't hit this right forward of enemy.

DMG : 12~13

Down Light -> Netural Light is true combo for all character.
Also, It moves your character forward, it means enemy's "safety zone" is narrow.
Great pressure opinion, but this move has guardless start frame.

===========================================================================

Air Light

===========================================================================


Netural Air Light

Direction : Short Upward


Extra Hit occurs when it hits, bonus hit will launch enemy upward high.

DMG : (8~9) + (10~11) = 18~21

Launch enemy to upward, covers your right above.
Catch range is longer then expected.
Only one move(except throw) that covers your head above.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Side Air Light

Direction : Forward

DMG : 15

Main KO move, low start frame and great force.
Netural Air also can be KO way, but sending to side is safer then upward.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Down Air Light

Direction : Diagonal (Down Forward)

DMG : 18

Tricky move, Edgegurad safe against blasters, or use for hit your move first.

===========================================================================

Air Heavy

===========================================================================


Recover

Direction : Diagonal (Upward Side , Character moves upside.)


Extra Hit occurs when it hits, it launches enemy as Diagonal Side Upward.

DMG : 18~19

If you use this move from edge of the stage, you can cover whole stage's edge ground.
Really safe recovery, but this move don't launch you upward that much.
Especially when hits, so make sure Mash dodge when this move hits.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ground Pound

Direction : Down


Extra Hit occurs when it hits

DMG : 19~20

Great force, awful move speed.
You should use this almost right above to your enemy's head.
That's fastest way to hit.
This move is slower then just falling. And has awkward start frame.

Basic Combo

============================================================================

True Combo (0 Dodge Windows)

============================================================================


Down Light -> Netural Light

Note : true combo (0 dodge windows)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Down Light -> Jump -> Netural Air

Kill in High DMG, or just fly enemy away to get air raid.
Note : >4 dodge windows

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Down Light -> Jump -> Side Air
Note : >3 dodge windows, try to change normal jump as dash jump

For KO. or DMG.. Whatever.

============================================================================

When you checked your enemy used dodge (punish)

============================================================================



Side Light -> Down Light -> Netural Light

Useful ways to Deal DMG When it's Possible.

Actually I'd recommend you other people's guide for combo.
Dobrien's channel has great combo list, check him out

Use in

I used bow usually in mid air.
SAir has almost 0 delay to hit. which means when you press button, SAir immediately hits.

Short range, surprise punch.

Another Combination with SAir is GP.


GP is slow as hell, but hitting GP is disaster to your enemy.

it will push your enemy to Heros of the Storm.


DAir is also great, but it was hard to hit.

Most of all, I used bow air to edge guard. DAir was not enough.

Conclusion

Bow is Strong as F@k,

Just Destory Other craps which is not shkilled,

By the name of Hunter and Hanzos, You'll be 100% Winrate Diamond when you're with bow.


(BTW I'm not Skilled on Bow)
