Overview

Leo Whitefang is a versatile character who shifts back and forth between a defensive neutral and his aggressive Brynhildr stance. His bountiful moveset is well befitting a King of Illyria.

Leo is defined by Brynhildr stance. It’s a unique, back turned stance that sacrifices the ability to block in exchange for a plethora of mix-up tools. These include bt.K, a fast low, and bt.H, a fast overhead, both of which start combos. Attacks in Brynhildr stance can be staggered and delayed to mix up their timing, or canceled into regular stance for plus frames. Further boosting the stance's offensive potential is a command grab, Glänzendes Dunkel, and a Guard Crush, Blitzschlag. In addition, the stance's lack of defensive options is partially compensated for with Kahn-Schild, which can parry strikes and reflect projectiles.

Proficient switching between neutral and stance is key to mastering Leo, but entering stance can be risky. Leo’s sluggish movement and vulnerability to being whiff punished necessitates caution when looking for an opening. Luckily, the handsome devil has the tools for the job. His f.S and 5H have the reach to control the mid range. Their flexibility is boosted due to his unique ability to gatling buttons into buttons. His projectile, Gravierte Würde, has both a fast version and an advantageous version. Score a knockdown for an opportunity to safely use Zweites Kaltes Gestöber, a grounded cross-upAttacking your opponent after changing which horizontal side you are on, usually by jumping over them. that enters stance. His powerful DPDragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion., Eisensturm - the version of which grants a hard knockdown - can be used to turn the tides on your opponent. Even on the back foot, Leo strikes fear into anyone who dares to challenge him!

Armed with powerful stance mix-ups, strong defense, long-reaching normals and a spectacular sense of humour, Leo truly is a man of anyone’s dreams!

Leo Whitefang

Leo Whitefang is an well-rounded beast that transforms into a offensive powerhouse in their Brynhildr Stance.
Pick if you like	Avoid if you dislike
A well rounded king, boasting large and advancing normals, fireballs, and a step-dash to take space. Safe pressure with most enders only being punishable by specific characters or being spacing dependent. A devastating flashkick that transitions into overwhelming offense. A unique stance mechanic for incredible offense with a overwhelming amount of options.	Charge inputs which are essential for some combos making full use of Leo's kit. No conventional run, limiting approaches or making aggression feel a bit clunky at times. Unreliable jump-ins that make Leo stick to playing on the ground in many cases.

Unique Mechanic: Brynhildr Stance

Upon a successful ground throw, crossing up with Zweites Kaltes Gestöber, or holding when using Turbulenz, Leo will enter a stance in which he is turned away from the opponent. In this stance, Leo has a different set of normal moves, as well access to two new special moves and his projectile Overdrive, Stahlwirbel, but is unable to jump or block; his only defensive option in this stance is Kahn-Schild. Brynhildr Stance will end if Leo is hit, and can be cancelled any time by inputting 22.

Good combo starter. Gatling into 6K into a special cancel for combos.
A great whiff punish tool with dash momentum.

A forward advancing normal with solid reward and good range with dash momentum. Unlike other characters’ 5K, Leo’s is a poor poke due to its stubby hitbox. However, because 5K moves forward, you can leverage it in conjunction with Leo's step-dash to whiff punish very effectively, and on a hit this combos into Eisensturm for Brynhildr pressure. Even if 5K is blocked, Leo is only -3 and can tick throw or gatling to 6K for a nasty 1 frame gap frame trap.

Propels the opponent far on air hit, making it hard to use in juggles midscreen.

A core combo and blockstring tool due to its reverse gatling from Leo's H buttons. It is also a decent poke, though in this regard it is mostly overshadowed by 5H, because f.S has lower reward and is susceptible to being low profiled. On the other hand, f.S does not extend Leo’s hurtbox before it becomes active and has a slightly faster startup, both of which can be important in certain situations.

Huge poke that leads to rewarding combos on counterhit, but with significant recovery. On whiff, you can hold H to enter guard stance to circumvent the long recovery and avoid getting whiff punished. Despite what the initial animation may suggest, 5H will hit every Low Profile in the game, meaning it will usually beat attempts at counterpoking via 6P. It also sees use as a meaty after hitting a midscreen 236S.

Uncharged Dust

Causes 80% proration on-hit

Universal overhead attack that's pretty fast, but only leads into a combo by Roman Cancelling. Can gatling from c.S for a mixup.

Charged Dust

Charged Dust leads to soft knockdown (+36).
Holding any upwards direction during the hitstop frames of charged dust will activate Homing Jump:
- Doing a Homing Jump will cause an Area Shift and put the opponent into a unique high damaging air combo state.
- Pressing any attack twice in a row without jump/dash canceling will perform a unique Finishing Blow attack, causing a hard knockdown (+23).
- Homing Jump combos can sometimes increase Tension Balance enough to activate Positive Bonus.

Similar to uncharged Dust but is slow enough to be reacted to. If it does land, it gives a very high damaging combo.

Blocks mid and high attacks, but loses to lows and throws. Lows will counter-hit Leo.
Can guard supers.
Negates blockstun and R.I.S.C. gain, but not chip damage.
The stance looks different when activated from f.S or 5H, but it has the same properties and follow-up.
Follow up is disjointed and has one hit of armour against mids and highs.

If you hold the button after f.S or 5H, Leo will go into a guard stance. Leo can exit the stance without attacking by releasing the held button; doing so has 16 frames of recovery. Press the opposite button to the one being held (S while holding H or vice versa) to perform a follow- up attack with one hit of armour. This property gives it good utility as an anti-air which combos into 236H for backturn pressure.

Leo’s guard point is a standout tool that makes his strong 5H into one of the most oppressive moves in the game. After poking, Leo may hold and immediately release H or S to retract his hurtbox faster than usual, immediately perform the follow up to put a disjointed hitbox where the extended hurtbox was, or hold the guard point and walk a safe distance away from the opponent. The combination of these make it incredibly difficult for most of the cast to whiff punish 5H and f.S.

Combos into 236S for a soft knockdown.

Similar to 5P, but with one frame slower startup, less active frames, and slightly more recovery. Due to this, it's generally better to mash with 5P, but5P can be low-profiled, so there are instances where 2P is preferred. If the move is blocked, Leo may frametrap into another 2P, 6P, or 6K, or try to leverage the disjointed hitbox of 2S to counterpoke opponents, despite it not being a gatling.

Very active, which makes it an amazing low poke.

Gatling into 6K for combos and pressure.

A 2K with slightly slower startup than most and almost no low profile properties. In exchange, it has amazing range with dash momentum, 6 active frames, and leads into Eisensturm for Brynhildr okizeme, making it an excellent all-purpose button. 2K can be used to mash out of pressure, catch approaches, whiff punish, chase an opponent walking back, or even set up a tick throw. With good range for its speed, 2K is also Leo's best punish starter for many slightly unsafe moves (such as Anji's NagihaGuard:

A surprisingly effective poke and counterpoke. 2S has 10 frames of startup, hits low, and is almost entirely disjointed, meaning it will often beat faster attacks with extended hurtboxes such as 2Ks and 2Ps. It also has a slight low profile, allowing Leo to go under some pokes, most notably Nagoriyuki's f.SGuard:

Leo is airborne from frame 5. This means 2D can challenge tick throw attempts and beat some low attacks, but this can be exceptionally risky on defence.
Launches Leo forward significantly if used with dash momentum.
Cannot be cancelled into specials, and thus is usually unsafe on block unless spaced well.
Leads to Brynhildr Stance pressure on regular hit with 236H whiff into bt.K, and a large conversion on CH.

A character-defining option for aggressive play. With dash momentum, this move becomes a fast halfscreen low that the opponent must respect in neutral, with the downside that it is generally punishable on block. For these reasons, it can also be used to whiff punish moves with long recovery from a distance. 2D is airborne and will beat out some low pokes as a result, but unlike most sweeps it's not a good option to go under the opponent's attacks. It also is not good for hitting moves like Sol's Night Raid VortexGuard:

Solid anti-air with upper-body invincibility. Can also be used to low profile pokes, such as f.S attacks.
Combos from 5P or 2P, but has shoddy horizontal range. Generally Leo can only do a single jab before 6P.

An all-purpose anti-air that will cleanly beat jump-ins. 6P is generally the simplest anti-air to hit someone with, but has lower reward than Leo’s alternatives. There are also times where it may be too slow or committal, in which case 5P is a better option.

Due to the upper-body invincibility, 6P can also be used to beat grounded pokes that don’t hit close to the ground, which confirms into 214[S] or 236H for Brynhildr Stance pressure on counter hit.

Very useful normal to combo into from K buttons.
Frametraps and combos from 5K and 2K. 2K>6K's gap is throwable, but 5K>6K is not.
5P or 2P > 6K does not combo, but can be a useful frame trap.
Gatlings into 6K gives you enough time to charge, letting Leo confirm into H Eisensturm for a hard knockdown.

Leo's 6K is an essential part of his blockstrings, hit-confirms, and pressure. It is safe against characters without 4-frame buttons unless Instant Blocked and you can frame trap afterwards, so this is often the best command normal to cancel into.

Unfortunately, it doesn't really see use in neutral, as it's low-profilable, -4 on block, and only has punishable-on-block special cancel options afterwards. Since that results in a poor risk/reward ratio, this move is better used as a frametrapping tool off other blocked normals than in neutral.

Ground bounce on hit. Grants a strong conversion midscreen into Brynhildr pressure.

A combo tool and pressure extender with middling reward on block. 6H moves Leo forward enough to gatling into 2S, but it is very slow to start up, making it easy to interrupt on reaction. The move's ground bounce attribute allows Leo to convert long-range counterhits into Brynhildr okizeme.

[] is frame data for cross through
Crosses through opponent if close after a minimum of 16 frames during the startup.
Transitions to Brynhildr Stance on crossup.
Can be thrown, making it risky to do raw, especially off of cancels.
Instant blocking leaves Leo point blank range and +2. The opponent can throw and OS the whiff with Roman Cancel to beat all of Leo's meterless options. Leo can backdash and whiff punish a throw attempt.
Leo's 236H has two hitboxes, a forward hitbox that comes out on the first frame of startup (frame 23 when it does not cross up, and frame 25 when it does cross up), and an additional backwards hitbox a frame afterwards (on frames 24 and 26 respectively).
236H can also crossup opponents in the corner. This means that while leo can apply mixups with this move in the corner, he also more likely to give up the corner when used near it.

Leo's 236H is an extremely important tool for entering backturn stance from essentially any knockdown, but its usage in neutral is one he will have to scout your opponent's ability to deal with or else you will be eating a lot of throws. Leo can also use 236H PRCC throw to quickly close the gap, but it is an expensive cheesy option that should be used sparingly.

Minor note: there is 1 frame as Leo transitions from front to behind the opponent where the opponent will whiff throw in the wrong direction, and be punished by 236H.

Total: 22

Brynhildr stance anti-air, and remarkably strong compared to conventional 6P attacks. A mixup set-up on offense.

With extremely fast startup and Frame 1 upper body invuln, bt.P is one of the best anti-air and counter-poke moves. However, Brynhildr Stance is rarely useful for its neutral, making it relatively niche in application.

On offense, bt.P is a heavy-hitting alternative to bt.K. It sacrifices dash cancels, and has substantially more pushback, giving weaker prolonged pressure, but in exchange its higher blockstun means bt.H and a delayed bt.K to prevent fuzzy block are significantly safer (5F gap), creating a stronger high-low mixup.

It can confirm into combos with bt.S, step dash through an opponent for a crossup, go into bt.H for an overhead, or even stance cancel for a Tick ThrowA throw done after attacks, very soon after if not exactly when throw invulnerability expires on the opponent. A Tick Throw take advantage of that the opponent naturally expect a Frame Trap coming, making it very hard to react to or escape from.. Given its low pushback, it can be looped several times without losing pressure, and by hitting Low an opponent is unable to stand for a Throw Tech or block a bt.H, easily shutting down opponents from responding to Leo's offensive pressure.

The king's mixup, a fast overhead with cancels, able to fully combo in the corner, and remains advantaged on block by sacrificing Brynhildr Stance, and only barely punishable without.

The critical piece to Leo's Brynhildr Stance, by creating threats with low bt.K, step dash crossups, and Throws, it becomes very hard for an opponent to defensively pre-empt bt.H without being opened up. Even if they do block it, the use of stance cancel allows Leo to continue his pressure with 2K, 5K, or even a Throw, and if the opponent doesn't act by anticipating this, Leo can quickly return to his offense with bt.K or BlitzschlagGuard:

Leaves an unsafe 7F gap when cancelled from bt.K, 5F from bt.P, and a safe 2F frametrap from bt.S, but doing so can telegraph the use of bt.H. Thanks to the large advancing movement, bt.H can hit from significantly far away, even after Faultless Defense, sometimes making otherwise effective punishes for the opponent no longer safe, but at distance it can be easily backdashed, losing Leo's advantage.

- At range, attacks will be deflected off the shield and stagger the opponent, but won't guarantee damage.
- Invulnerability starts from frame 1, but the parry doesn't activate until frame 3, so it is possible to make an attack whiff without actually parrying it.

The threat of this move makes mashing out of backturn pressure very scary, as you can turn generic mash buttons into parries off of blocked backturned moves. Good move for forcing opponents to respect you, but be warned that you will lose to throws or slower moves performed on read.

A good pressure reset after bt.H as it can be cancelled into, leaving Leo very advantaged against opponents anticipating a stance Cancel. Due to its slow startup, it is very easy to interrupt. However, its advantage on block is enormous, giving enough time to do another bt.H safely, or step dash in (+0 frame advantage) either to cross-up or get back in range after Faultless Defense, and due to the Guard Crush removing Throw Immunity, exiting Brynhildr Stance to use Throw can hit immediately out of blockstun, preventing fuzzy jumps or abare.

Just as good as it always was. Great to cash out after you catch someone with a backturn button as its single hit makes it great for adding damage and giving you a launch early on in combos. Somewhat usable as a high commitment frame trap as it'll let you continue pressure even if it fails. It's also helpful as a reaction super if you happen to be in backturn in neutral, which assuming you are means you're just enough of a nut to scare people with it.

Very invincible.
Locks opponent into a cinematic on hit.
Interruptible gap between 4th and final hit.

Each swing has an enormous hitbox, and opponents will often have to wait until after the fourth hit to try to punish it, giving Leo time to Roman Cancel it. It is otherwise incredibly unsafe, so opponents will be able to see it coming from far away. The first hit is low profilable, allowing moves such as Giovanna's 2DGuard:
