Jaeyun special tactics

Neutral game

Jaeyun can have a different approach depending on the weapon currently equipped. The greatsword deals huge chunks of damage and combos are easy to do thanks to the opener-bridge-closer structure.

Play around the huge range and power of the weapon to throw the enemy offstage and gain valuable space. When using the sword, speed is key. The sword is fast and can do short combos pretty easily. Stay close and use your speed to catch the enemy.

Offstage Game

Jaeyun has a powerful offstage, mostly due to his set of weapons. When using the greatsword your attacks are predictable, but the long range can aid you in throwing the enemy away.

When using the sword go up close and use the down air or the recovery to catch flying enemies.

Edgeguarding

The greatsword has easy access to many sword slams and long range attacks that can be useful in edgeguarding situations. Play around the down light or use the aerial down air or ground pound to catch returning to stage enemies.

The sword can be used as a more up close and personal alternative, using the side air or the recovery.
