Overview

Starter Guide

Combos

Overview

Strong all-rounder, can be considered a zoner thanks to her two strong projectiles (three including desperation). However, she also boasts an explosive 50% combo, two very good throws (three counting air throw), and a strong combo ender special in Heel Drop. All of these strong tools at the cost of only have one low (her sweep) and no invul option outside of backdash.

Mars

Mars zones out opponents with Snake, a fireball that travels along the ground, and fishes for a 50% BnB combo.

Pros

Cons

Distance demon: Between her fire snakes and birds, and a good anti-air button in close sHP, Mars can make approaching her a nightmare and win by just keeping the opponent away.
Consistent good damage: Has an easy combo that does roughly 50% damage.
Strong throws: Both her throws are amazing, with HK giving unique left-right mix ups and also being an air throw, and HP being untechable and dealing a lot of mental damage to the opponent.
Wins by chip: With her projectiles and desperation dealing a staggering amount of chip damage, this is a very viable way to win games.

Awful high/low mixups: Lacking any kind of overhead outside of jumping attacks and, most notably, having only one low that knocks down, Mars has basically no way of opening up the opponent block without the use of throws or heavy pressure/mindgames
Bad defensive options: She has no invulnerable options outside of backdash, if she's cornered she's gonna have a very bad time getting out of it.
