Tomoko
Tomoko, the icy executioner of the Reaper’s Warning universe, is here to destroy the competition in Rivals of Aether. Bereft of her humanity, Tomoko shows no mercy in the use of her various disjointed weapons– a playstyle that makes her a “distance demon” able to easily dominate space through brutal, powerful attacks.
Tomoko’s down special has her create an ice wall– her primary form of stage control. Holding the SPECIAL while using this move spawns the wall further away from you. After the wall is created, it slowly moves in the direction opposite to where Tomoko was facing. Both Tomoko and her opponent can hit the wall, which pushes it away. The wall is a solid object, so it can be used to block an approach, give yourself cover, or simply menace an opponent. If a player is launched into a wall hard enough, they will “splat” onto it, temporarily rendering them immobile!
A projectile attack attack in which Tomoko conjures a gun made of ice and fires it. Normally, this is a quick but weak projectile, but charging the move up turns it into a powerful laser with a ridiculous amount of range! Both the uncharged and charged versions of this move can be reflected off of your Ice Wall, which sends the projectile flying upwards at a 45-degree angle as a trickshot.
A short-ranged projectile in which Tomoko fires a shard of ice at a downwards angle. On contact with the ground, a wall, or an opponent, it explodes and hits multiple times.
Tomoko creates a platform of ice to lift herself and any opponents caught in the attack into the air. During the startup of this move, before the platform is created, PARRY be held to cancel it into pratfall as a feint. Pressing USpecial again while standing on the platform will cause Tomoko to ride it upwards before slamming back down into the ground– which can also be cancelled into pratfall with PARRY and gives you your Platform back.
Tomoko’s DTilt, Zweihander, can be jump cancelled on hit. If you land the tipper, it can be jump cancelled even earlier.
The third part of her Knife-Tanto-Sword Jab combo will send aerial opponents out on hit, but spike them if they are grounded.
