Ol' Cyke's lost quite a bit since his return from exile in the last game. He can't even do anything after the FP without a pause, lag sucks. His Hyper Optic blast is still a strong special, but there's a lot of lag time after an Optic blast, he's only got two variations of it now. The medium move might have been a worthy sacrifice to make a way for something else, but it was a fairly important move. Otherwise, he's still a great competitor cause his up close game is still strong as ever.
Best assist: Projectile (Optic blast)
While battling a large opponent: Cyclops has a great close up fighting style, and he can throw fairly easily, but large guys have the same style. With Cyke you gotta be sneaky, almost like a preditor stalking it's prey. Always stay somewhat close but if your close game is bad, you always got projectiles.
While battling a small opponent: Keep within throwing range, lil guys are fun to throw, Cyclops can be a real cheap player is you can fight close. Avoid fighting in the air, the small guys seem to have an advantage against Cyclops in the air due to his size and speed, so stick with the ground attacks.
While battling an average opponent: This is somewhat a hard task to do but try not to jump around too much, keep dashing and when you do air combos try and add Cyke's double jump so you can get some extra energy off. |
