Metal Sonic
Metal Sonic, the robotic doppelganger!
Even if the facts can’t be denied, he still see’s himself as the real Sonic!
He has come to crush the competition of Rivals!
Metal Sonic wields a devastating arsenal of attacks:
Jab: Plasma Pulse Attack
This is a simple 3-hit attack, where Metal swings twice at his opponent, ending with a plasma blast from his core.
The last hit of the move has a stun effect, unlike the first 2 attacks.
(Reference: Knuckles’ Chaotix, Sonic the Fighters)
Dash Attack:
When using this attack, Metal boosts forward, swinging his claws near the opponent.
If you use this attack close to an opponent, Metal will grab onto them and throw them on the ground.
This is a very useful combo tool when wanting to follow up with aerials.
UStrong: Ring Spark Field
Up Strong is a lightning strike that comes downwards towards Metal, charging a big lightning explosion.
The Best usage of this move is getting opponents that loom over you out of the sky, when the lightning comes down, it will shock whoever comes in contact with it.
Be careful when using this move, though, as it will leave Metal open for attacks.
(Reference: Sonic CD, and Sonic Heroes)
FStrong:
He stabs straight forward with his metallic hand, dealing a strong amount of damage and knockback!
DStrong: Metal Sonic Flare
Metal Sonic Flare is Metal Sonic’s take on the Sonic Flare.
Sonic Flare has Sonic hit from very close, but Metal activates the thruster on his back to get more distance when attacking opponents.
NSpecial:
Metal shoots fire from his chest, a simple projectile that sets opponents on fire!
USpecial:
A simple thrust upwards going head first!
Although it may look safe, his metal head hits pretty hard!
FSpecial: V. Maximum Overdrive Attack
Overdrive has Metal flying towards the opponent at rapid speed.
The longer you charge this move, the further you’ll go, and the more damage you’ll deal.
You can’t charge this move in the air, so be careful when trying to recover!
(Reference: Sonic CD, and Sonic Generations)
DSpecial: Black Shield
The Black Shield is a very useful defensive matrix, it will carry Metal’s momentum, however, you can not move.
You still take damage while using the shield, but no knockback, and opponents attacking you will be bounced back. At higher percents, they could even be bounced into the blast zone!
The best way to use this tool is to get out of risky situations when at kill percent, or to escape combos that could lead to your death.
