Rocket

Rocket Raccoon

Guardians of the Galaxy


Rocket may not look like a tech genius or an expert tactician, but anyone who's ever made his hit list has quickly regretted underestimating him. This savvy space soldier is equally eager to boost his teammates and to collect bounties on his foes.

Gameplay Tips

  • Rocket's Neutral Special deals considerably more damage up close and is very good against shields.
  • Rocket can fire shots and control his movement while rising upwards with his Up Special.
  • Unlike most characters, Rocket's jab is a projectile attack and only deals knockback close to himself.
  • If Rocket already placed down a mine with his Down Special then he will instead perform a weak slash with the move.
  • Rocket's Forward Aerial propels him forward, allowing him to use the attack for mobility reasons as well.
