Raiden

Raiden

Metal Gear


Raiden is a character from the Metal Gear series. Raiden has the following moveset:
  • Raiden's Neutral Special slashes the opponent relentlessly if you hold it down. By pressing Special, Raiden rips out the enemy's spine (fake) and absorbs meter from it.
  • Raiden can also gain meter using Down Throw.
  • Raiden's real name is Jack, and due to his violent tendencies, he was given the nickname "Jack the Ripper".
  • Raiden's Dash Attack can be jump cancelled.
  • Raiden's Down Air is huge. You can spike someone with it without going off-stage.
  • Although Raiden's Side Smash has long range, it has a blindspot directly in front of him.
  • Raiden's Up Special has no scaling, which makes it a decent air combo starter.
