Some quirks/guides:
– FSpecial is a full super-armor, but always travels a set distance in same speed.
– Dash-attack startup has a shield cancel, so you don’t have to commit to dash-attack if you throw it out accidentally, or you could use it to bait out something.
– Lightning always travels full distance in 8 frames, no matter how far. All thanks to sprite scaling! It, however, has a range limit.
– All aerials can interact with the acid-raincloud. When an aerial hits, it will "charge" the raincloud with electricity(?).
– Forward Tilt and Up Strong can also hit the raincloud as well, but it won’t charge the cloud, only influencing its location.
– Raincloud’s charge will be full with two hits.
– Once full, hit the raincloud with an aerial again (excluding Neutral Air) to launch the raincloud in the general direction the aerial would launch opponents, while the raincloud starts summoning a lightning by itself! Catch the opponent off-guard!
– Up Strong can ‘detonate’ the cloud as well.
– When using Down Special, depending on the level of the charge, cloud can cast up the lightning quicker.
KNOWN ISSUES:
– cloud seem to drift a bit after being interacted. cause of issue unknown and idk how i’d fix it
