Overview

Eddie, the shadow of the former head of the Assassin's Guild - Zato-1 - is an archetype-defining puppet character with a myriad of overwhelming offensive pressure. Eddie has unblockables, pressure for days, flight, and plenty of dual attacking options to deal with opponent's defensive options. Letting Eddie get the initiative is suicide and all of the pressure is placed on the opponent once Eddie gets in and runs his game.

On the flip side, Eddie is horribly weak defensively. When his shadow gauge is emptied, he must often run away, or contend with his overall subpar normals. He has the worst guts in the game with a bad defense modifier, a poor backdash, slower buttons, and no meterless reversal. His Dead Angle is barely passable and his reversal super is downright awful. Eddie is a character who wants to get in and stay on the absolute offensive, giving the opponent zero chance to breathe.

 Eddie  Eddie is an archetype-defining puppet character with a myriad of overwhelming offensive pressure.

Pros
Cons
  • Best Mix-Up and Blockstring pressure in the cast: Suffocating offensive game with pressure and strong mix-up, that can be looped again with Exhaustion
  • Excellent Setplay that loops into itself: Best Okizeme in the game with many reversal safe setups
  • One of the best Anti-Air games in the cast:With 2H, 6P, j.D, and Nobiru to cover each other, the air is an extremely dangerous zone to be in against Eddie.
  • Has a lot of checkmate scenarios: Practical unblockables with meter.
  • High reward for everything he does: Decent damage both out of hits and his command throw and good meter build.
  • Very unique and unorthodox:A lot of unique options such as flight, a unique controllable airdash, Drunkard shade, and Break The Law, that makes unprepared players easy prey.
  • With shadow out, he always has a presence wherever he is: Long Range Lows and Anti Airs, Good mid-range pokes and high reward when up close, Eddie doesn't really have a position he doesn't want to be in with shadow.
  • The worst defensive tool-kit in the game: Below average health and defense stats. Few (and bad) reversal options, including Dead Angle.
  • Very poor mobility: Has a really slow walk and dash speed, and his flight can be more detrimental than having a double jump would be in some scenarios
  • Has one of the highest skill floors in the game: Demands high execution and extensive labbing time to use effectively, neutral game requires a lot of knowledge and being able to fully control both characters
  • Extremely easy to combo: Large, easy to hit hurtbox
  • Very poor abare and prone to be counter hitted: Slow buttons with overall poor hurtboxes
  • Needs to have shadow out to have a real presence: Without Shadow ready, Eddie is sorely limited

Unique Mechanics


The Eddie Gauge

The shadow, Little Eddie, can only be used while the gauge is not depleted. Every shadow attack will drain some of this bar.

Controlling Little Eddie with Negative Edge

Little Eddie, attacks only when corresponding buttons are released, not pressed.

With proper meter management and execution, Eddie is capable of attacking alongside the shadow for devastating simultaneous attacks. This gives Eddie his extensive offensive pressure game and allows tandem attacks to prevent escapes and multiple mixup opportunities per blockstring, with varying levels of punishment depending on how much meter is left. He can also spend 25% meter to extend his gauge further, and exclusive to +R, he can also perform a "Weiss" (or depending on who you ask, "Vice") summon, which gives the shadow a moveset closer to Eddie's XX and #R iteration, which also builds guard bar on block.

If it is emptied however, Eddie loses access to this shadow for several seconds, and cannot summon, leaving him susceptible to being stuck in a very bad defensive position. Proper control of this gauge is key.

  • Eddie takes a Dive Down, making him invincible during it while being able to move.
  • Shadow is still controllable while Zato is underground.
  • Has a lot of potential as a way to avoid opponents trying to make you block to force unsummons, and avoid aerial moves. But leaves Shadow unprotected.
  • The longer you stay undergound the longer the resurfacing animation takes.
  • Has a followup into Shadow gallery 2nd hit.

Additional Frame Data Upper body invincible 5~6F. Above knees invincible 7~9F. Throw invincible 1~9F Eddie is underground and fully invincible from 10F~ onwards. Eddie is in CH state when disappearing/reappearing. Can perform Followup Shadow Gallery while underground.

Followup
214K -> 41236S/63214S
  • A followup version of SG from BTL which only does the second hit. Overhead and causes a sliding state on hit and knocks down.
  • Is very strong in combos. It can be looped for as long as you have Eddie meter and puts the opponent in the right range for unblockables.
  • While it is overhead it's not very useful as a mixup since BTL has no low option. You can pepper it is as a surprise when it is hard to see.

Additional Frame Data Low profile 1~2F. Above feet invincible 3~8F. Eddie is airborne from 7F onwards. Slides opponent on hit (untechable for 60F, slides for 36F)

  • Shadow Gallery is a strange special move. It does not have much utility in neutral, neither is it easy to use in combos.
  • While it is strike invul until it reaches the ground it becomes vulnerable before it becomes active. It is also throwable throughout.
  • Can be used to punish opponents trying to attack Shadow while you're in the air.
  • The first hit knocks down while the second hit doesn't. Most of the time you will want the first hit only.
  • Aerial SG has an FRC point during 19~21f, making it less risky if you do whiff and always knocks down. You can often avoid using the FRC with the right combo but it is character specific.

Additional Frame Data Low profile 1~2F. Above feet invincible 3~8F. Eddie is airborne from 7F onwards. Slides opponent on hit (untechable for 60F, slides for 36F)

  • To control the shadow, use either 7,4 and 1 to move it to the left and 9,6 and 3 to move it to the right.
  • Eddie's main mechanic and defining trait. Your goal when solo is to get him out safely ASAP.
  • Normal summon (236H) is generally preferred in neutral and midscreen
  • Summoning with 236P/236K/236S will perform the corresponding Shadow move on the first possible frame.
  • Weiss summon (214H) is an alternate moveset for the shadow taking moves from older Guilty Gear titles. The moves are generally better than the normal summon when the opponent is cornered.
  • Mixing up between drills and summon is your best option when making the opponent block solo. Drills bait escape options or abare and will knock down if successful and allow a free summon. Summoning will take advantage of when they are scared to press any buttons but normally will lose if they press buttons.
  • Eddie's Shadow will take a hit if they are both in the same hitbox. You can take advantage of this to create reversal safe pressure, but it is generally advisable to keep the Shadow alive.
  • If the shadow gauge runs out naturally, or the Shadow gets Hit, you will not be able to use it until the gauge fills again. (236D will not help you if Shadow is dead}
  • Getting hit or blocking will automatically unsummon the Shadow.
  • Use {{{2}}} when Shadow is already out to unsummon. If you do this the Shadow Gauge will recharge faster than if dead, and you will be allowed to use without it needing to be completely full. Doing this will cancel any Shadow special being performed without recovery for the Shadow.
  • Shadow is controllable from frame 12 if using 236H summon. Otherwise performs Traversing/Small/Anti-Air Attack as soon as possible.

Additional Frame Data Eddie is in CH state during entire move. Starts consuming Shadow Gauge during standby period. Shadow Gauge has a total length of 1000 points. When completely emptied, Shadow gauge takes 446F to completely refill. If summon command is repeated, Shadow disappears (Total 29F, no CH state). Shadow disappears 7F after entering command. Shadow Gauge turns white and recovers from empty to full in 286F after unsummon

  • Mawaru! Eddie's shadow most important pressure tool. It vacuums them back to Eddie and allows him to continue his pressure game.
  • Normally, Mawaru's 1st Hit won't naturally combo into the second (your opponent can backdash or do a reversal, so beware). CH Mawaru, however, does, so the damage is guaranteed.
  • Mawaru will also juggle the opponent If you launched them previously (probably with 22S/22H), opening up nasty unblockeable set-ups, which are discussed in the combo section.

  • Can also be used to maneuver the shadow, allowing it to potentially avoid pokes and projectiles

  • Reflects projectiles thrown at Eddie

  • If the insane high-low mixup he has wasn't enough, he also has access to a fairly fast Command Grab. Use the aforementioned mix-up as well as tick throws with this in Tandem and your pressure will reach ridiculous levels.
  • On its own, it's a pretty decent command grab, although somewhat slow. With shadow out, tho, inputting this move normally will naturally make the Shadow do a Nobiru, guarenteeing your safety or giving you a CH Punish if they were mashing.
  • If normal shadow is out, you can use Damned Fang, move the Shadow so it's placed away from the opponent, do ]H[, and then make them land in the puddle or set up and unblockeable with Vice's ]H[.
  • Damned Fang has a very generous FRC during the 7~10f after the opponent gets stabbed. This restores air options, allowing you to get an Air Combo going with an Air Dash to close a round, or to get a Meaty Mawaru going if you didn't already have shadow out.
