Road Runner

Oh, so that’s why Wile ended up here…

As part of the Cartoon Jam, the fastest creature in the American desert is in Rivals of Aether!

The Road Runner is an explosive high mobility rushdown character. Its greatest asset is its high mobility on the ground, further enhanced by a smorgasboard of burst movement options. Its less mobile in the air; the air is not a road after all.

The cornerstone of the Road Runner’s kit. When unempowered, Meep Dash is a rapid, straight line dash with high hitstun. But when empowered, it leaves a trail of fire when used on the ground, and allows Up Special to be recast if used in the air.

Most useful though, the empowered version can be used to cancel Road Runner’s tilts and Dash Attack!

Road Runner will make a ‘putput’ sound when the empowered version is ready.

From one of the more famous gags; the Road Runner summons a truck to drive across the map, barreling through all who get in its way. The top of the truck is safe to stand on though.

A ‘dash’ in the air, sending Road Runner straight upwards. Its rapid startup makes it a useful ‘get off me’ tool, and you can act freely in the air after it is finished. However it doesn’t go that far.

A horizontal dive kick which can be cancelled into any aeiral. Buffering walk into it when you hit the ground will allow you to slide along; you can also use tilts and strongs while sliding.

Dash Attack is Road Runner’s fastest usual movement option and has Coyote Time.
