Infernen
Infernen, the relentless Labyrinth Bounty Hunter punches their way into Smack Studio! This ground based boxer plays a nasty game while grounded, but they leave a lot to be desired while in the air. They also have the ability to act on pure instinct whilst in the midst of the fight, activating their Flow State mid fight for a crazy powerup. Being out of the labyrinth, their physical form tends to waver, so they’ll fight at 110%!
Special Mechanics
Flow State
During every stock, Infernen’s Flow State will build up when dishing out damage, and wain when taking it. When Flow State activates, Infernen’s hair turns white and their specials will be enhanced. Infernen loses Flow State on death, so persist as long as you can and ramp up the damage!
Clinch
Throws aren’t legal in boxing, so it’s out of Infernen’s itenerary. Instead, when grabbing, Infernen can either Pummel by pressing the attack button, or hold the grab to clinch, increasing their Flow State Meter
