Cupcake
The Julesvale Circus is full of many amazing performers and wondrous feats. People come from across Aether to watch their star acrobat, Cupcake, as he flips and spins around the ring. The soft looking gymnast may appear harmless, but his kicks carry more force than most boxers’ punches!
Using rapid kicks and his famous ribbon, Cupcake can easily combo his opponents to victory. He can enhance this already strong combo potential with his special Lovestruck Field that he can create with precise hits, which reduces all knockback taken within! His strong attacks and up special will cause a Heartbreak to the field and deal a devastating finishing blow!
Neutral Special- Heartbeat
A lightning fast pink bubble that pops around Cupcake, knocking anyone too close for comfort away from him. It can be jump cancelled after a couple frames and makes for a great way to get opponents off of Cupcake.
Side Special- Ribbon Tightrope
Cupcake leans back before sending his purple ribbon lashing forwards. Hitting an opponent will wrap them in the ribbon, immobilizing them briefly. In most conditions, the ribbon will then be snapped off of the opponent and they will be flung upwards while the Lovestruck Field is created. However, if the opponent is already inside the field or is in hitstun, they will remain wrapped in the ribbon and Cupcake will pull himself towards them.
Down Special- Gymnastic Flip
The acrobatic goat does a quick, twirling jump across the stage while leaving a pink afterimage. He gains brief invincibility at the start of the jump, and can cancel it into another action after a while. Landing on your opponent with the flip has a powerful spiking hitbox that will bounce Cupcake back up and create the Lovestruck Field. The hitbox will even last indefinitely until you land on the ground, get hit, or cancel the move, so you don’t need super precise timing.
Up Special- Soaring Kick
Leaping into the air with a wide kick, Cupcake will pull any opponents hit by this attack with him before finishing with a strong roundhouse kick. It’s decent at recovering but this attack’s true strength lies in its kill power and Heartbreak when inside his field.
