Ulgrim stats and best stance
Ulgrim stats lean favourably towards defence (7) and strength (6), with a peculiar secondary focus on speed (6) and his lowest stat being dexterity (3). The dexterity being low is not a problem considering the high mobility and chain potential of his weapons.
Ulgrim special tactics
Neutral game
The axe and rocket lance are an outrageously aggressive combo that can chain a killing combo very easily thanks to the high stunlock potential. Play around aerial combat using the recovery and the side air as your main damaging attacks. When confronting an enemy on the ground using the rocket lance your priority is exploiting the long range of the weapon to keep the enemy at bay.
Playing aerial is recommended, as both weapons have great aerial combat assets. Ulgrim sigs are powerful but slow, and should be used with confidence that they will connect.
Offstage Game
Playing offstage can be done with the axe or the rocket lance, as both weapons are great at fighting while floating in the air. Abuse the recovery of the axe and the side air of the rocket lance to gain control over the situation. The side air of the lance is especially useful when attempting a return to stage.
Using ground pounds to hammer the enemy onto their death can be a solid strategy, especially with the lance.
Edgeguarding
Edguarding is the perfect time to show off the sigs, especially the axe nSig. Play around your sigs and wait for the enemy to attempt a return to the stage.
Going in for the kill can also be done, as both Axe and Rocket Lance are great at knocking out an offstage enemy.

Ulgrim Signature Moves and special tactics

Axe sSig
Ulgrim deals a series of axe strikes while moving horizontally. While not being the most useful of his signatures, this sig is suitable for ground control.
Axe dSig
Ulgrim strikes in the two horizontal directions using both the axe and the energy weapon. This signature is fairly fast and perfect for short combos or for baiting the enemy.
Rocket Lance nSig
Ulgrim charges up a small blade from the butt of the lance, and then strikes upwards. The resulting attack will send an enemy flying upwards with great force. This signature is perfect for edgeguarding and short combos.
Rocket Lance sSig
Ulgrim charges up the energy blade before dealing a series of attacks horizontally. Good for gaining stage control or as a killing move at the end of a combo.
Rocket Lance dSig
Ulgrim creates an energy chainsaw from the back of his lance, and stabs a player with it. After a short while the player will be sent flying diagonally upwards. .

Best Ulgrim Axe combos and strings
The axe is a great weapon with important aerial capabilities mostly due to the excellent recovery and sAirs of the weapon. It can be played offensively, searching for gimps and juggling opponents in the air with dAirs and nAirs.
sLight > nSig
Use the side light to make an enemy travel upwards and connect to the signature attack. Extremely strong when used on edges, will likely result in a kill.
nLight > Dodge > sSig
Throw an enemy near the edge and then slide to it using the dodge before dealing the killing blow with a side signature. This combo can be fairly complicated to connect, but it’s pretty unpredictable and hard to read.
dAir > dSig
Use the down air to stun an enemy before executing a powerful down signature, most likely resulting in a killing blow.
