Character Overview

A vortex-heavy mobility fighter who breaks conventional spacing through wind-enhanced movement.

Playstyle: Vortex / Mix-up
Execution: High

Rashid controls aerial and ground tempo through Whirlwind Shot and dive options, forcing unstable neutral. He excels at cornering opponents and using Level 2 (Ysaar) to create checkmate pressure sequences.

Key Strengths

  • Mobility: Elite movement options (Wall Jump, Run) dictate the pace.
  • Corner Pressure: Continuous looping oki and side-switch setups.
  • Level 2 Install: Ysaar creates one of the strongest win conditions in the game.

Key Weaknesses

  • Stubby Normals: Struggles to contest long-range pokes without wind stocks.
  • Damage Scaling: Requires heavy meter usage for optimal damage.
  • Execution Demand: Complex movement requires precise inputs to avoid errors.

Counter-Strategy

Control the air space to deny his wall approaches. Do not press buttons after blocking his strings. Walk him down when he yields space and force grounded exchanges where his reward is lower. Check his jumps with early jabs or crouching heavy punches.
