 Potemkin lumbers through neutral to headlock his opponent into a terrifying vortex of death.

Pros
Cons
  • Potemkin Buster: The command grab that defines Potemkin. It comes out instantly with huge range and damage, and has applications on both offense and defense.
  • Amazing backdash: Potemkin's backdash is invincible for almost the entire animation, making it an excellent option for defense.
  • Massive stamina: Potemkin is the proud owner of the highest effective health in the game, allowing them to take lots of punishment.
  • Sluggish: Potemkin cannot dash or airdash, and has 5 frames of prejump. This makes approaching the opponent difficult, and prevents him from using Faultless Defense Cancels to the same extent that most of the cast can. In addition, all of his normals are slower than average.
  • Weak to zoning: Potemkin struggles to deal with opponents that actively stay out of his range. Slide Head and Hammer Fall do help with this, but they are far from foolproof solutions.
  • Large: Potemkin's large frame makes him more susceptible to things like instant overheads and F-shiki Sometimes known as "Fuzzy Overhead". When you are in blockstun, you can switch high/low blocking, but your blocking animation and hurtbox does not change until you leave blockstun or block another attack. F-Shikis take advantage of this and use overheads that would miss on crouching characters, but not on standing characters.s, and enables character-specific combos and setups.

60 Mid 19~31 2 33 -16 1F~2nd active frame: Armor

Potemkin charges forward with one hit of armor. Useful for going through pokes and projectiles, although be careful because it's very unsafe on block. Pairs really well with RC's, which makes it plus on block and comboable on hit. Potemkin cannot cancel it, so it's not great without hard reads or meter.
