Dust and Fidget
"Before us lies an army of a thousand. And they have never been defeated."
"Well then. Let’s not keep them waiting."
Dust and Fidget from the indie hit Dust: an Elysian Tail have arrived in the world of Aether!
Dust is a mobile sword fighter who overwhelms opponents with good aerial movement thanks to his signature ability, the Dust Storm. Fidget is also here to provide support.
SPECIALS:
Up Special: Dust Storm. This is the core of Dust’s kit. you can use it to trap enemies in a swirling vortex on the ground, or move freely in the air. Be careful though, overuse of the attack will cause you to injure yourself and put you in the parry state.
Neutral Special: Fidget’s Projectile. Fidget fires a shot straight ahead that flies a short distance. It comes in three elements: Wind, Fire and Electricity. The shots are weak on their own, but use the Dust Storm on them and they will become much stronger.
Forward Special: Ash Bound. Dust does a quick dash forward to grab an opponent. If successful, the opponent will be dragged along, he’ll flip over and slam them onto the ground behind him.
Forward Special in the Air: The Undoing. Just as before, Dust does a quick dash forward to grab an opponent. This time upon a success, he will plunge downwards with his opponent, not stopping until he hits the ground or the abyss.
Down Special: Rest Stop. Use this to access the menu to change Fidget’s projectiles.
OTHER NOTEWORTHY MOVES
Forward Air: As well as attacking normally, Dust will summon black orbs similar to what the final boss can summon. Hitting all three parts of the attack will do heavy damage.
Back Air: A three part slash attack. The first hit hits in front of Dust. Why? Why not? It has low fixed knockback, making it a useful combo tool if you fastfall short hop. The second and third hitboxes hit behind. The third hit takes a long time to emerge, but it semi spikes.
Dtilt: Sad way to go. Not sure you can kill with this (though you are welcome to try. I’ll give you a imaginary cookie) but it is a burst movement option that counts as a jab, allowing it to combo into other tilts while sliding if you hit. It also combos well even at high percents.
