Alex Guide & Overview

A young wrestler considered to be the next big thing. He debuted with his adoptive father Tom as his trainer, but was quickly made a heel due to his perceived surliness.

Pros

  • STRETCH 'EM: Hard knockdowns and looping pressure in and out of Prowler Stance, letting Alex maintain a terrifying offense.
  • Good Workrate: A wide array of tools from command grabs to evasive hops to armored strikes, with even more reward on Punish Counter.
  • 20-Inch Pythons: Long-reaching pokes with great reward even at a distance.
  • OUTTA NOWHERE!!!: Able to pressure with plus frame attacks like heavy lariat & command grabs to keep opponents guessing from anywhere on the screen

Cons

  • In-Ring Psychology: Recognizing when to use your options from Prowler Stance for maximum reward.
  • Getting Cut Off: Poor reversal options barring a raw Super Art.
  • Abnormal Throw Loop: Has to use Drive Rush or enter Prowler Stance in order to throw loop properly, telegraphing Alex's intentions more than other characters.
  • Just Playing the Heel: No cancelable lows, limiting his back walk punishes.
