Leroy

Leroy has both a CH jab string, a CH df+1 string and a very strong i14 CH mid string. He also has an i12 mid CH launcher and a safe i13 CH high.

Chain punches are powerful poking strings as Leroy recovers quickly enough on block to maintain many options, such as sidestepping. 1+2,1+2,1 is especially rewarding and hit-confirmable.

Armed with multiple parries, a Heat Engager sabaki, and a high-crushing CH low, Leroy is quite risky to challenge.

Hermit stance provides many powerful mix-up options including a knockdown low and a hit-confirmable Heat Engager.

Leroy deals high chip damage, most notably from ss1+2 and 1+2,1+2,1 Heat Dash.

Leroy's combo damage is quite high, both with and without resources to spend. Additionally, his df+2,1+2 launcher turns the opponent to directly face him, making his sidewalk punishment especially strong. For wall combos, Leroy's HRM f+4 spike into a grounded follow-up allows for great okizeme and damage.

Leroy's one-use per match cane gives him access to a long range, high damage launcher that's both safe on block and doesn't extend Leroy's hurtbox. Leroy also gains access to a -14 on block low that tornado launches; a very powerful low.

He's called the Grandmaster of Drip for a reason.

The purpose of his mix-up lows in normal stance is mostly to enter Hermit stance for more threatening mix-ups. This two-step gameplan makes multiple correct guesses required when mixing the opponent up.

His power mids are underwhelming as they are either quite slow or disproportionately risky for their reward. Even when the opponent is conditioned to duck, Leroy needs to take big risks when mixing them up or settle for safe pokes. Also lacks a fast, safe mid wall-splat.

His generic movement options are on the weaker side, and he struggles to approach as his approach attacks are mediocre at best. He's quite reliant on turn-stealing as a result.

Struggles against players who mix up their offensive timing, as his reversals are heavily punishable if baited.
