Overview

Alsion III is a long range zoning character suffering from slow movement and limited defensive options. He relies on risks and gimmicks to create openings. Without meter, he has no reliable reversal, leaving him vulnerable to offensive playstyle.

Offense

Overhead (A+C): A slow overhead that can be confirmed with normals (breakable) or super (214214P)

Dash knee (236K): Be cautious ! light version lacks knockdown properties. Confirm 236D from 2B or 4A. Safe on block if used at max range except against Saizo's super. Usable in the air with jA > 236K.

Deadly Claw (214K): Usable on the ground and in the air with its ambiguous landing. Up close, use 214B to stay in front, and 214D to go behind. Follow up with any Super on hit. Unsafe on block.

Defense

2C: Low profile. You can use it to pass below projectiles.

Poison Fog (41236P): Short-range attack that builds meter and absorbs most projectiles (except Saizo's kunai).

Back jump C: Effective against long and mid range jumps thanks to its long range

5D: When 5D hits an airborne opponent, they bounce on the ground, allowing a corner juggle into 214214P thanks to its fast startup.

Supers

Anubis Hug (236236P): Usable after as a follow up after Deadly Claw. If it connects, it turns into a grab (up to 12 hits), but the opponent can mash to reduce damage.

Pharaoh Dance (214214P): Alsion performs a quick combo with startup invincibility. It’s safe on block depending on the matchup and can be confirmed from b+LK or Overhead.

Break

Pharaoh Dance (214214P) is his main break option with invincible startup, fast hits, and juggle potential. Deadly Claw (214K) can also break, but use it sparingly as it’s highly punishable.
