Overview

Tager is the quintessential grappler. He has slow and limited movement, having no run, double jump, or airdash. However, he has several ways to bring the opponent to him. His 5B is a forward moving attack with projectile guard point An attack that automatically blocks certain attacks. Examples of this include Bang's Drive attacks, Baiken's Suzuran (63214K), and Nappa's Too Bad (214S)., and Spark Bolt is a fast, full screen projectile that leads to a full combo. Additionally, his Drive, Voltic Battler (colloquially referred to as magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum), lets him pull his opponents to him, indirectly manipulating their position.

Once close, Tager has a number of command grabs that can either be very damaging on their own or which can lead to an even more damaging combo.

 Iron Tager is a slow moving grappler with high front-loaded damage and a call-out option for every situation.

Pros

Cons

• Durable: has 20k health; highest tier of health in the game.
• Consistent Front-loaded Damage: His command grabs do the most damage in the in the game, allowing Tager to consistently threaten large chunks of unburstable damage. This, combined with his hard hitting normals and Spark Bolt, makes every interaction threatening.
• Strong Defense: Can use moves with guard point This keyword does not have an entry in the Glossary and invulnerability This keyword does not have an entry in the Glossary such as Charged Lightning and Wedge Catapult to punish offense that is usually safe.
• Zonebreaker: Can blow through projectiles with 5B or at the cost of 1 skill gauge with Spark Bolt.
• Knowledge Check: Strong okizeme From Japanese "起き攻め". Attacking an opponent about to wake up after they were knocked down, usually with meaty attacks or mix-ups. and reset Purposefully ending a combo early in order to perform a mixup in order to deal more damage. potential thanks to magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum.

• Low Mobility: Tager cannot run, air dash or double jump
• Highly Committal: His meterless options for approaching are all very telegraphed and can be cleanly countered by a knowledgeable opponent.
• Tall and vulnerable: His large size makes it more difficult for him to avoid the opponent's attacks, and his height exposes him to character specific instant overheads and combo routes.
• Niche Assists: His 4P and 6P have very slow startup, making his assist kit very situational and teammate dependent.
• Meter Hungry: Needs to constantly spend meter on Spark Bolt to consistently convert his hits into damage, corner carry, and his trickier mixups.

Drive: Voltic Battler

Some of Tager's normals, specials, and supers automatically pull the opponent towards him with magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum, giving his attacks more range as well as messing with the opponent's sense of spacing.

Tager's magnetism cannot force enemies into an airborne state if they're currently grounded, and the forces applied by magnetism add (rather than override) the opponent's current momentum. This leads to unpredictable, humorous, and unfortunate situations.

Characters performing Distortion Drives and executing throws that have successfully connected are completely unaffected by magnetism.

4A is Tager's fastest ground poke. Slower than 214A but with more horizontal range, making it better for safely controlling space. Great recovery, making it a cornerstone of his mixup game with tick throw 214A/C/B+C.

• Jump cancellable on hit and on block.
• On counterhit, combos into 5A.

---

• 4AA hits low and has the same great qualities as 4A. Be careful using this when connecting 4A against aerial opponents or at longer ranges where it might whiff. Chain into 2C instead in those situations.
• Jump cancellable on hit and on block.

---

• 4AAA has slight magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum, pulling opponents in for tick throw resets.
• Special cancelable and chainable into 2C.

5A is Tager's longest ranged jump cancelable normal, making it a prime point in his blockstrings to reset pressure. Safe on block, giving him a low commitment way to disengage from a blockstring.

---

Tager can hold this charge for magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum and high/body/projectile armor, and extra damage on full charge. Generally used to bait pushblock attempts and fish for a juicy counter hit starter when a reversal action comes out instead. Canceling into 214B or a delayed 214C after this move is a situationally useful mixup against blocking opponents. On grounded counterhit, you can actually combo directly into 214B.

• Can be held for 31f
• Special cancelable into Tager's command grabs
• Gapped to naturally catch jump startup after 5A

---

5AAA's magnetism can draw opponents back in after a pushblocked 5AA, stopping some counter-attacks. Otherwise it's unremarkable combo filler.

• Combos into 5B on counter hit
• Gapped to naturally catch jump startup after 5A

Works sometimes as a suprise overhead, but generally relegated to combo filler.

5B is chargeable. Sledge will cover more distance and deal more damage when fully charged. Safe on block, use this move to cover distance, approach zoners, and safely end blockstrings. Chainable into 2A, 2B, 2C, and 5C on hit but not block. Thanks to head guard point, Tager can also bait Bursts with this move for a counterhit combo.

• Can be held for and additional 29f.
• Has head, body, and projectile guard points while charging.
• Has projectile guard point while traveling.

---

Easy to punish armored overhead. Surprisingly annoying to make safe with assist. Will autocorrect if an opponent crosses over Tager after he uses Sledge. Opponents can generally block high after sledge without much worry as 5BB is his only followup on block. However, if sledge hits an assist, Tager can then cancel into 2C, giving a fairly potent mixup opportunity.

A slow, large magnetizedPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum attack. Used in aerial combos, and can be used as an air to air. Has high frame advantage on hit and block against grounded opponents.

When done while rising with a super jump, it can be tricky for the opponent to anti-air. Air-to-air and airborne anti-air moves can trade in Tager's favor, as the pull from the magnetism can ruin a followup combo, while potentially pulling the opponent into the corner. Meanwhile, grounded anti-airs have to contend with the possibility of j.C delaying Tager's fall, as well the tug of j.B pulling them in range a potential assist call.

• Very attractive against aerial opponents
• Can be low profiled by some moves and some crouching opponents [ie. Linne, other Under Night Characters]
• Poor inner hitbox will cause the move to whiff unexpectedly when the opponent gets close.

Tager's makeshift float. A two stage attack, if the initial arm sweep hits, his opponent is hit straight down with a hard knockdown and Tager immediately follows up with a bellyflop on the stricken opponent. The opponent cannot burst until the belly flop connects.

During the initial arm sweep, Tager is launched slightly upwards and forwards and loses all previous jumping momentum, enabling it to easily hit enemies slightly above him. Conversely, this makes landing it against standing opponents very tricky.

Can perform this move an indefinite number of times, allowing Tager to air stall, cross over the opponent, and bait out anti-air attacks.

• Around 0 on block after making contact, making jc into ja a strong option do to ja's 7f startup.
• Recovers fast enough to use ja before landing when not at minimum height.

An very good Reversal Action. The large hitbox makes it a potent anti-air, and because it hits all around Tager, it easily stops most crossup attempts. It is also one of the most damaging reversal options, further skewing the risk-reward of challenging a defending Tager.

The guardpoint property of the moves also allows it to defeat many typical safejumps, as opponents will remain airborne slightly longer when their attack makes contact with the guardpoint, preventing them from being able to block.

Has relatively few active frames, making it surprisingly poor at punishing bursts.

• Big vertical hitbox all around Tager's body.

236A

Thanks to the head invulnerability and deceptively large hitbox this move can occasionally be an effective anti-air, though for relatively damage. It recovers very quickly, which can be used to bait Tager's opponent into approaching. Generally speaking this move is best used at the end of a combo. Tager is +41 upon landing, letting him can safejump 9+f reversals.

• No magnetism
• Can only grab airborne opponents.
• Moves opponent to the other side of Tager.
• Only combos into Gadget Finger.
• Has head attribute invulnerability frames 4-15.

236B

The more committal and riskier anti-air grab. The magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum is fairly finicky, and when used poorly, opponents can land and punish Tager before the move recovers. In certain cases, the opponents can avoid the grab long enough to hit Tager after the end of the move's head attribute invulnerability.

Generally speaking, this move is used as a combo extender.

• Extremely attractive to airborne targets, grounded opponents will slide along the floor slowly.
• Can only grab airborne opponents.
• Hold button to extend active frames.
• Can be held for 42f.
• Moves opponent to the other side of Tager.
• Ground bounces allowing for extended combos.

Has invulnerability and magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum early in the move up to the point right before Tager grasps at this opponent. Be wary of very active moves as Tager is vulnerable for 1 frame before the grab hitbox is active. The damage scaling on this move is very good, allowing for some of Tager's most damaging combos upon a successful grab. While uncommon and largely impractical, it is also possible to combo grounded opponents directly into this grab via assists or counterhit 5AA and j.B.

Drops the opponent just inside 214A range with Tager at a small frame advantage. This is a very strong position for Tager where in order to avoid a properly timed command grab, the opponent must buffer a jump, reversal, or backdash. The Rock-Paper-Scissors scenario is generally as follows.

• 4A catches jump startup, beats abare
• 214A, 214C beats blocking. 214A has a somewhat strict timing, making it difficult to use it to hit meaty.
• 5A, delayed 4A, and 2B beat varying speed and distances of backdashes
• Blocking beats reversal actions

Though generally a scary mixup situation, not opting for gadget finger ender gives Tager additional options such as meaty assist and safejumps, which can lead to even more powerful oki.

You can also consider also using Active Switch to extend combos or for better positioning in your resets when using this to end Tager's combos.

If you input 720B+C instead of 214B+C, the damage of GETB will be increased by 500 (6620/7620).

Air Version

Be careful when using the air version. Grounded opponents will have plenty of time to get under you. While opponents who super jump will usually fly overhead and can hit you as they fly by. Is +21 upon landing, but the opponent is placed far from Tager.

Thanks to the invulnerable startup and large grab hitbox, j.214B+C is a prime button to threaten air footsies. The magnetismPulls the opponent towards Tager by adding (not overriding) forces to their existing momentum doesn't start until after the super flash, making it worse than his other grabs when trying to catch faraway airborne opponents by surprise.

Input 720B+C will also give you an extra 500 damage (7350/8350).

• Extremely attractive to airborne opponents
• Grounded opponents will slide along the floor slowly
• Can only grab airborne opponents
• Stops all momentum when in use
• Invincible startup
• Button can be held to extend active frames
