Team Synergy

Point

Some teams may prefer Teddie on point as opposed to anchor. Teams like Teddie/Vat or Teddie/Jin that have strong assists and want to set up on an opponent will generally put Teddie up first. Other teams like and Teddie/Wald and Teddie/Jubei might have him out first to to force mixups with Bearscrew, but can also start on the other end. Making sandwiches with Bearscrew and Item shuffling is your main goal as Teddie. Once you land a hit you can begin to setup DP and Burst safe pressure, wearing on the opponent until they panic and guess wrong.

Anchor

Most Teams feature Teddie on the backline or flipflop between the 2 roles. You want to make use of the blockstun in his 5P and the range of his 6P in neutral, while saving his 4P for oki and setups. Smart Bomb, Ball Lighting and Mystery Food deny space while also being strong combo tools, and Oil Drum and Amagiya Buckets have enough hitstun to force Cross Combo unblockables. Your going to be using a lot of Active Switch with Teddie as you wont always have access to his best items and Bearscrew is really good at forcing mix, similar to his Point gameplan.

Recommended Partners

S Tier Partners: Waldstein, Merkava, Hyde, Es, Jin, Blake, Yang

A Tier Partners: Nine, Jubei, Narukami, Mika, Carmine, Weiss, Ruby

These are your go-to partners. This doesn't mean that you can't play a team that doesn't include these characters, but these teams will generally see the most success.

General Tactics

Teddie is a trickster character who focuses on screen-control to keep the opponent in check until they make a wrong move and allow Teddie to gain the upper hand. Teddie's gameplay focuses on 2 main points: Bearscrew mixup and Item management. As Teddie, you have a lot riding on Bearscrew + Assist to force left/right mix as well as create sandwiches with the aforementioned Bearscrew and his several other tools, notably j.C and EX Teddievison. Teddie's 2nd objective is to throw Items to get an edge over his opponent, as all of his Items provide some level of benefit to him, whether it be combo extensions, resets, screen control, or building resources. The main gameplan as Teddie is to expire the opponent's patience and let them hurt themselves trying to counter his tricky gameplay. At the same time, Teddie has tools that when used effectively will force the opponent into bad positions, especially with Oil Drum and Amagiya Buckets, which let him either land free mixups or make the opponent spend multiple Skill Gauges on Reject Guard, as well as Dr.Salt, which can often be used as bait to lure an opponent into a bad time. Remember to keep your partner happy and healthy, as your assist is your #1 form of mixup.

Tips and Tricks

Teddie being the tricky bear he is means that there's a ton of things to cover both with and without his items, so expect this to be updated as more tech is found.

22B's Momentum

When exiting the TV from 22B, Teddie gains a huge amount of momentum. Use it to close the distance, or with Assist to setup a sandwich. example here [1]


Pinwheel Reset

This one's rather straightforward but can do a lot of damage if your opponent doesn't know about it. examples: here[2] and here[3]

Fighting Teddie

Teddie wants to force as many sandwiches as he can, so forcing neutral is key to stopping him. Keep yourself in situations where Bearscrew + Assist is a risky choice as often as possible. Do not let Teddie throw out items for free, as a well placed Smart Bomb or Oil Drum can change the flow of the match. You especially dont want him to get to Amagiya buckets as this will let him get in once they rain down.
