StartupHow many frames it takes for the move to become able to strike the opponent. Startup includes the frame on which the move becomes active. ActiveHow many frames for which the move has a hitbox where if the opponent touches it, they will take damage. Occurs after Startup. RecoveryHow many frames that the move must go through after its active frames end to automatically go back to a neutral state. On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Standard jab and occasional poke, overall a pretty niche tool in Sol's kit. Useful for frame traps, tick throws, etc.

  • Better than average startup. Can tag a lot of beefier moves during their startup or cooldown.
  • Clutch Anti-air, but lacks the vertical coverage of 5K/2H.
  • Strong burst bait tool due to its overall low recovery time.
  • Whiffs on crouching Millia, Faust, and May. Leads to whiff > throw setups.

Establishes offense. Gatling into it from 2P > 2K, if the opponent has been conditioned to block high in reaction to standing animations.


Gatling Options: 5P, 2P, 6P, 5K, 2K, c.S, f.S, 2S, 5H, 2H, 6H, 5D, 2D

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Privileged 3f normal that does it all: anti-air, abare, punishes, and active enough to catch backdashes on reaction or OS.

  • Works as a frame trap tool after Sol does a safe poke.
  • Preferred normal to OS with Sol's throw.
  • Note: a large chunk of the cast can crouch under the second hit, especially when hit or blocked from farther out.

On air hit, 5K is confirmed from with 2H or a j.P/j.K into a standard air combo > VV for knockdown. On air CH, 5K has enough hitstun to combo to Sidewinder from an IAD j.S or j.D with stricter timing.

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Sol's main punish starter for meterless and non-counter hit combos. Versatile gatlings from all of Sol's lower level buttons, useful mid combo as a confirm/filler/stopping point.

  • Recovers quickly enough that 5K(1) > c.S lets you confirm a hit or a burst.
  • Leans forward during startup, letting Sol move past some hitboxes depending on spacing (e.g. Dead Angles)

Can lead to Dustloops, Sidewinders, and tk.Bandit Revolvers. Mid-corner combo against airborne opponents, can be jump canceled into a j.D for a high damage Sidewinder or Dustloop. In the corner, you'll usually start your loops with c.S > 6P.

Extremely fast for its range, f.S is good for gaining initiative round start or establishing offense in neutral.

  • Confirms into 5H or FB Fafnir from max range, gaining positional advantage or some moderate poke damage.
  • Gatling into 2S makes f.S 2S pressure very safe and lets Sol make his way in.
  • For meter, converts at a decent range leads to 5H > Fafnir, can go into Tyrant Rave for some extra damage.

Be careful, Sol extends his hurtbox on the first frame. Due to only being active for one frame, it's easily backdashed, but can be preemptively canceled to 2S to make it safer.

StartupHow many frames it takes for the move to become able to strike the opponent. Startup includes the frame on which the move becomes active. ActiveHow many frames for which the move has a hitbox where if the opponent touches it, they will take damage. Occurs after Startup. RecoveryHow many frames that the move must go through after its active frames end to automatically go back to a neutral state. On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Slower, long ranged poke, punish, and combo tool that leads to big damage on counter hit. Difficult to contest.

  • Combos into Grand Viper up close or from a long-range counter hit, leading to Sidewinder Loops.
  • Confirms into (FB) Fafnir to let Sol get in from midscreen.
  • Can frame trap out of 6P's extended cancel window.

On CH against standing opponents, leads to Instant Air Dash > j.S > stuff > Sidewinder Loop, Confirms into Bandit Bringer against most crouching opponents, though Grand Viper remains the most reliable combo afterward. 5H goes into IAD j.P or j.K against airborne opponents, or after a confirm of xx > 6P > 5H when the 6P is landed somewhat close. Just don't get predictable with airdash pressure.

ActiveHow many frames for which the move has a hitbox where if the opponent touches it, they will take damage. Occurs after Startup. RecoveryHow many frames that the move must go through after its active frames end to automatically go back to a neutral state. On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Decent damage combo starter, but awful range, and slow and easily reactable, despite being one of the fastest 5Ds in the game. Sol's only grounded overhead.

  • Leads to significant damage and a knockdown, especially with an Impossible Dust.
  • Horrid range, very unsafe, and huge CH state window. Keep meter on hand to cancel it.
  • Substantially better in DI due to being safe, and on the cusp of unreactable.

Don't get predictable. 5D's range is only slightly farther than Wild throw and it is highly telegraphed.


  • Knocks down face up on CH.
  • In CH state from Frames 1-30.

ActiveHow many frames for which the move has a hitbox where if the opponent touches it, they will take damage. Occurs after Startup. RecoveryHow many frames that the move must go through after its active frames end to automatically go back to a neutral state. On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Decent range, fairly active, very disjointed, low recovery time, and +3 on block make this an excellent blockstring ender, neutral button, and baiting tool.

  • Strong low reaching poke due to hitbox/hurtbox ratio.
  • Links into P and K normals and c.S on late hits.
  • OS: 5P/2P/2K > 2S is a natural frame trap on block, will combo on hit. Also works if delayed from 5K.

Discourages button pushing when properly spaced. Timing 2S ambiguously on oki especially is very tricky to defend against and can give you information on the opponent's mindset.

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

High reaching upwards swing which gives you a day and a half to confirm on counter hit. Sol's main relaunch tool.

  • Beats many moves and scores CH due to the strong hitbox. Trades in Sol's favor most of the time. Burst safe if followed with BB or jump cancelled on CH.
  • Fast enough to combo off of level 1 buttons.
  • Special cancel window extends into its recovery frames.
  • Can be OS'd with 5P/2P to bait bursts mid combo.

Works as a slower but stronger Anti Air than 5K, and late frame trap tool. Can be a nightmarish meaty if they feel like rolling the dice.

On counter hit, a Bandit Bringer will convert, and will whiff and recover if they burst. 2H is strong, but don't whiff it.


Gatling Options: 5D, 2D

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Amazing: mid-ranged, low profile sweep which can go under 80% of moves in the game, even during pressure. Your best friend.

  • Can go under bursts, Stun Edges, Johnny ranged pokes, other sweeps, etc. Will even score counter hits against some jump-ins.
  • Special cancel window extends into its recovery frames.
  • Free combo on counter hit.
  • Near-corner conversions into FB Fafnir when too far for regular meterless juggles to work.
  • Can combo to Clean Hit Grand Viper on normal hit against Jam, Bridget, Millia, and Kliff.
    • Further applies to May and Baiken near the corner, or if 3 or more hits precedes the 2D.

Leads into Bandit Revolver RC for a conversion. CH leads to Gun-Flame > FRC, mashless Grand Viper, or Gun-Flame > FB Fafnir to Sidewinder Loop. Also does a strong, unburstable kill combo by going straight into Tyrant Rave ver.Beta.


  • Knocks down face down.
  • Frames 4-23 [3-15] low stance.
  • 90% Proration.

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Prime corner combo launcher and counter hit fishing button, 6P beats out many poke attempts and confirms from nearly anywhere on counterhit.

  • Mid level hitting gut punch which beats many standing buttons. Blows back on hit. Major frame trap button with many gatling options.
  • Can be cancelled at any point during its recovery.
  • Clutch Anti Air.

Vital in frame traps but loses to many lows and low profile moves, pay attention to your spacing and timing. Despite this, with the rewards, you should expect to be using this move a lot.


  • Knocks down face up, face down after wallbounce.
  • Frames 1-8 [1-4], Frames 14-21 [8-11] upper body invincibility.
  • Frames 9-13 [5-7] above the knees invincibility.
  • Wall bounces on hit (untechable for 30 frames).
  • 90% proration (no proration in DI).

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Occasional ranged button, High-risk high-reward (on CH) Anti-Air. Not particularly strong by itself.

  • Decent stun and damage, but ends your combo without meter.
  • Cancel window lasts until the end of recovery for late frame traps.
  • Can be used in Dragon Install for higher Dizzy damage combos.
  • Pushes Sol's hurtbox pretty far forward, CH state for the whole move.
  • Has a difficult confirm into Grand Viper if it counters on the first hit.

6H will get counter hit very easily if used poorly. It is more difficult to contest in the air though, so air CH confirms lead to Bandit Bringer. Be very cautious about using this move.


  • Dizzy modifier x1.5.
  • In CH state for entire duration.

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Fast, general use air normal with a very active hitbox, and which shrinks Sol's hurtbox, letting it beat a lot of moves. One of Sol's best.

  • Good for airdash pressure due to its gatling options. Staggered self cancels can be used to bait bursts.
  • Can let Sol sneak past some Anti Airs due to the hurtbox change.
  • Easy, if scaled, confirms off of things like Gunflame.
  • Leads to Burst safe, character specific Sidewinder Setups.

The Hurtbox shrinkage can let you do lower airdash crossup setups. Vital in Sol's difficult HJIAD combos. Deceptively excellent.

0 Recovery frames. Weird hurtbox. Lingers for forever. Pseudo-God Normal.

  • The shrunken hurtbox can make this outright impossible to Anti-Air with some moves.
  • Links into any jumping normal on hit.
  • Hit meaty and high enough off the ground, Sol can airdash immediately afterwards for an airdash mixup.

Very difficult to contest in any regular fashion. Useful in Sidewinder conversions. The recovery makes opponents tear out their hair. One of Sol's most used air options.


  • Untechable on air hit for 17F (doesn't apply to DI version).

Large, damaging move with abnormally high untechable time that loops into itself, for the titular DUSTLOOP.

  • Launches on hit, useful in airdash and corner combos, can convert into delayed Sidewinders for optimal damage.
  • Fullscreen conversions on counter hit due to wallbounce.
  • Can lead to a fuzzy guard setup (too or from), can be the fuzzy guard attack against Potemkin, Eddie, Johnny, Anji, and Justice.

Partially responsible for Sol's obscene damage output. Works with 5 in a row in one combo with a 3-hit prior starter. Teyah them to death.


  • Blowback on normal hit (untechable for 27F).
  • Wall bounces on CH (untechable for 54F).
  • Additional 5F landing recovery.
  • 90% proration.

Average throw. Unspectacular unless done in the corner. Should be OS'd with 5K, or sometimes c.S.

  • Only knocks down 25% of the cast by itself. Leads to free conversions in the corner against the other 75% with 5K.
    • Bandit Revolver loop leads to 15-20% damage, more meter, and knockdown.
    • Sidewinder Loop does similar damage with [5K > j.P > j.K/S] or [5K > 6P > 2H > j.S/D] > SW.

Compared to Wild Throw, it's faster, safer (when OS'd), and is a reversal, but doesn't have WT's conversions or knockdown.


  • Knocks down face down (character specific).
  • Floats on hit.
  • 50% forced proration.

Ground Normal S
Aerial Normal S
Ground Normal H
Aerial Normal H

Godly DP with a massive hitbox. The greatest. Ever.

Ground S: Lower to the ground version.

  • Can be canceled into the followup kick on whiff to mix up Sol's recovery timing. Converts to knockdown about 95% of the time.
  • Leads to a full conversion if the first hit is RC'd, or if the 2nd part counter hits.
  • Tied for the slowest version of the move at 7F, but with some of the most invulnerability.
  • Note - all grounded versions: must be jump installed in order to airdash or double jump on RC.

Breaks through even the smallest gaps. Using the knockdown kick sets up oki, but on whiff/block, the followup puts you in CH state. Commands respect in order to be completely baited.


Air S: Easy air combo ender. Has the most leniency into combo'ing into the followup kick of any air VV.

  • Also works as an air reversal, but is air blockable without FD, and is only strike invuln.
  • Completely cuts Sol's air momentum when you RC the first hit, leading to airdash mixups or continued strings on block.
    • This RC will make Sol fall straight down. You can TK this move and RC it immediately, and with some very tight timing, you can tag an opponent with a quick overhead before you hit the ground...
  • Can convert to longer combos if the first hit is RC'd.

Ground H: Massive DP version. Big Anti-Air callout, unrivaled in combined speed and vertical reach. Eats up the sky.

  • Slightly faster and more damage than the S version.
  • Similarly converts if the 1st hit is RC'd or the 2nd part counter hits.
  • Can be difficult to punish if done with running momentum: some characters lack the means to reach Sol without meter.
  • Leniency to the followup is slightly more difficult, and must be delayed a bit.

Air H: Situational air knockdown tool with slight more damage. Higher reaching aerial VV, but not as high as the grounded version.

  • Also air blockable without FD.
  • Lacks the same leniency to the followup as the ground H version.
  • Similarly to j.SVV, cuts air momentum when RC'd on the first hit.

DI Ground S: Weaker version of VV, but has some altered utility.

  • Similarly strong hitbox, but cannot cancel into knockdown.
  • Same speed as regular SVV, but slightly less damage overall.
  • All three hits must be FD'd if airborne.
  • Overall not the strongest version, but usable.

DI Ground H: The hype machine. One of the meanest moves in the game.

  • Absolutely massive wall of hitbox. Reaches to the top of the screen.
  • Does double dizzy damage (1st hit), takes a buttload of health, and can still convert to knockdown.
  • The 1st hit does 60 damage and GB -1: one of the single strongest combo starters in the game on RC.

DI Air: Similarly weaker version as DI-SVV, but the first hit is air unblockable.

  • Doesn't cancel to knockdown.
  • First hit being air unblockable can win you air-to-air wars.
  • Fully invincible compared to normal air VVs being only strike invincible.

Will work if they don't FD while air poking in blockstrings, but otherwise you should use with meter if you want to convert.

On-BlockAlso known as Frame AdvantageThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This value is based on the first active frame. Invulnerability

Fast, instant low profile travel attack. The ultimate callout, likeliest move in the game to blow out your speakers.

  • Extremely low profile on frame 1: goes under more than 75% of moves in the game.
  • Leads into ridiculous damage on Clean Hit from anywhere on stage.
  • Number of hits changes depending on how many directions/buttons are pressed during the move.
  • Horribly unsafe on block/whiff. Cannot be RC'd if the current hit did not make contact.
  • Can go under bursts, which can score a powerful reset in the corner, but can be suicide midscreen.
  • To use multiple hits, alternate between forward and back while mashing buttons
  • Alternatively, you could alternate between down back and down forward, or up back and up forward
  • For a detailed look at this move, see this tutorial video

Strong tool which requires finesse and recognition to use properly. Can go under things mid-pressure and lead to very damaging conversions. Has some of its best conversions near the corner, and can work midscreen with little/no mashing based on the opponent's character. Don't miss.

Great command grab with average command throw range but great startup. Sol's main mixup tool.

  • Full, damaging conversions from anywhere on stage.
  • Has burst safe setups with FB Sidewinder, with free easy resets if they take the bait.
  • Also has character specific, meterless burst safe setups.
  • Only in CH state for a short segment of its recovery.

Makes people wince when it lands. Meterless conversions can do 25%-55% damage. Usually followed with dash (2H) > j.D > SW loop.

  • Some meterless burst safe followups include:
    • IAD j.S > Sidewinder > (empty jump) SW loop
    • 2H > late j.H/Burst Throw OS
    • late j.H/block OS > SW loop
