Overview

Although Faust's appearance is bizarre, he's a surprisingly fundamental spacing character that uses abusive normals and random items to keep his opponent at bay. Faust also has a command grab (proximity unblockable) and a variety of overheads which, combined with various items, make for a deadly oki(post knockdown) game. Faust has both straight-forward combos and game plan which makes him a strong choice for beginners to pick up, while the focus on fundamentals means he's also difficult to master.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Great range on many normals
  • Random items keeps opponent guessing
  • Strong mix up with an instant overhead, proximity unblockable, multi-hit jump cancellable low
  • Strong pressure with most moves being jump cancellable, huge blockstun on drill kick and corner control using anti-airs and items
  • Very strong anti-air and air-to-air attacks
  • Invincible 5D combined with YRC
  • Weird hitbox
  • Has a crawl to low profile
  • Average defense and large hitbox in hitstun means he dies relatively quickly
  • Random items lead to inconsistent reward
  • Has limited options on defense such as:
  • His fastest normal has 6 frames of start up, which is 1 frame more than the average character
  • Slow airdash makes it hard to escape the corner and zoning
  • Long wake up time
  • Longer range attacks suffer lengthy recoveries and many can be low profiled easily

Items

General Item Notes:

  • Each item's recovery refers to when you are able to throw another.
  • New to Rev 2, some items have Jackpot versions, which are generally more powerful and have different properties than their normal versions. Whenever you would throw the normal version, it has a small chance of being the Jackpot version instead.
