|
| Not the best move due to it's terrible range for a machine gun, but generates a lot of EX and allows for assist conversions although hard ones due to very low hitstun. Low Priority means they can dash through, but not contestable by alot of the cast while in its path. If used at all, don't get reckless, have a shield up for secondary cover.
| | It has relatively low range but good EX Force gain, and alot of characters can't swing right through it if they come at you headfirst. Combined with Electroshield you can punish ground dash attempts or force the opponent away into a more favorable position for you to Ricochet Shot from. |

| | It's possible to assist convert from aswell, but its finnicky and has very little hitstun to work with. |

| Your main firearm for ground zoning, who shall keep the bad guys away, There's alot to unpack here | | Fire a shot that ricochets off the ground and walls. |
| | Your grounded main tool with alot of applications in neutral. A swiss army knife for his mid- to longrange pressure. |
|
| |
|
| * Laguna can charge it for more split bullets when it collides with the ground/walls. Half Charge gives 3 split shots, Full Charge 5. All Split Bullets can still bounce by themselves
| | The main shot is Mid priority while the ricochet bullet is Low priority. |
|
| |
|
| * Split bullets will track the opponents current location when bouncing, making for very good dodge punishes. Due to it's free, although limited, aiming property you can bounce bullets for creative punishes. Hitting behind them hits blocks like Shield of Light or Jecht block
| | The move can be charged for more ricochet bullets while all hit seperately. Half Charge is 3 split shots, Full Charge 5. Only the main shot tracks the opponent after ricocheting, making it excellent for dodge punish, shooting past projectiles or behind them, and firing right above him. |
|
| |
|
| * Potentially the hardest hitting move in his bravery kit if both the main bullet and smaller bullets hit. Mostly only at super close range or with godlike aim at their feet.
| | Blocking this move can still reflect the ricochet, something to be mindful of. Same happens if it clashes and gets reflected by a move. |
|
| |
|
| * Bounce bullets are Low priority, the main shot Mid. Make good use of that.
| | The chase effect will cancel out if hitting someone with a full charge and only a single split bullet |

| Overall very solid for his zoning game. Paired with Electro shield can be hard to contest by some characters, with the charge time acting for extra mixup potential. Watch your opponents jumps as the bounce bullets are very easy to miss on loose air movement.

|
| Probably the lowest recovery move he has, this move is slow but very spammable and quick to block and dodge cancel, allowing for good defensive mixups after. It has a floaty hitstun to it, allowing for combos with assists or a preemptively loaded Ricochet Shot right after. Best used to add pressure alongside shield in grounded footsies, as it can be dashed throughed, or prevent opponents from setting up their own tools.

| Laguna the first guy in video game history smart enough to use his gun as a melee weapon.
| | Close range melee low to round out his all-range playstyle. |
| This move makes the staple of Laguna's mixup, defensive, and EX game. A 2-hit Melee Low that is easy to hitconfirm with into Chase Setups and has top tier EX Gain. Decently low recovery which makes it decently safe and spammable, low range and vertical homing but 13F meaning it will trade with most moves of it's kind in the game. Ground version will put Laguna in the air, giving access to air dodges/air attacks, similar to Electro Shield.
| | |
| | Makes for a fast poke, as defense after dodges, great EX Force gain and decently low recovery after. Can be cancelled into itself faster than into block or dodge. |

|
| The only other move you can't miss in your kit in one way or another. Definitely a staple in the air to round up his all-ranges kit, and allows for consistent EX Gain outside of EX Cores.

| Your Bread and Butter for keepaway, controlling neutral and slowing down approaches to build meter
| | Throws out a shield infront of Laguna that stays out for a while as a lingering Mid priority projectile. On contact launches them away and wallrushes. |
| It's a straightforward move. Laguna deploys a shield infront of him which launches the opponent away on contact and wallrushes, leading to potential assist conversions. Due to it's Ranged Mid priority will win over Ranged Low and Melee Low moves. Laguna can't fully cover himself while standing inside it, be aware of moves with large hitboxes and space yourself accordingly.
| |
|
| |
|
| Notes about Reflect properties:
| | Laguna can be barely fully covered when staying right inside, very consistent on the ground. Some moves may still hit him due to hitboxes however. Space accordingly for the matchup. |
| If a Mid Projectile clashes with it, it '''does not reflect''', and the shield '''can't reflect the same projectile twice'''. If this move is blocked, the opponent can dash through it.Melee High moves/blocks will destroy the shield, Ranged High will go through.
| |
|
| |
|
| Laguna goes airborne during the ground version, giving him access to air dodges/air moves when done out of its recovery. Good for potential mixups or set up low to the ground Bazooka shots.
| | Due to being a projectile, blocking it makes it act as if reflected, so they can walk through it after. Mid Projectiles also don't get reflected but redirected. |
|
| |
|
| | If hit by a High priority Melee the shield is destroyed. |
|
| |
|
| A staple in Laguna's kit that can only be neglected in select few matchups. Acting as both a tool to slow down the neutral, potential mixup on heavy blocking, and to build meter safely. The ground version can be switched out for niche tools, as Laguna can set up a very low to the ground shield to still fulfill the same purpose. Can be handy in some matchups to have a ground shield set up without additional inputs though
| | |
| | Laguna goes airborne during the ground version which is convenient for positioning right after with backdodge. |
| | Bread and Butter move for keepaway, slowing down approaches and as a mixup tool. Hard to assist punish too, good for assist meter building. |

| Big boy missile. Laguna fires a big missile, changing it's max travel distance and acceleration with each button press during its startup, up to 2. Can be slightly aimed in a roughly 50° angle infront of Laguna. Huge recovery period, stays out aslong as Laguna doesn't get hit until it disappears or collides with something. Just like Ricochet Shot, this move also has some unusual properties to it
| | Uniquely, the explosion on contact is the actual Mid Priority projectile, so it goes through other projectiles until it hits something or gets blocked. |
| | The explosion hitbox still appears when it hits a wall and knocks away. |
|
| |
|
| * This move doesn't clash with other projectiles and goes right through. The explosion, which is triggered upon hitting anything, is the actual Ranged Mid projectile. If blocked it staggers Low priority blocks.
| | The knockback is directly related to the angle its hitting from. If it hits them from behind, it will always send them straight towards you. Crucial to know for wallrush confirms. |
|
| |
|
| * When aimed with the control stick at neutral, this move actually tracks 360° horizontally around and slightly above/below Laguna during it's startup. Sometimes handy on early dodges next to you

|
| * The knockback directly correlates with the angle its hitting from. If it hits from behind it will always send them straight towards you. Getting a feel for it is crucial for wallrush combos
| | Great anti-zoning tool and to disrupt the opponents own neutral setups. However it is fairly easy to get a hang for an assist punish on it, so use carefully considered and with meter behind it. Despite its risk, it's effective at what it does and shouldn't be used for reckless zoning on a savvy opponent. |
|
| |
|
| This is where the long-long range zoning starts in the air. Unsafe to throw out recklessly, but amazing tool for disrupting approaches, neutral and as a general threat. Very easy assist punishable by most assists, be careful of opponents meter and your own and think carefully. The huge recovery period also means a badly spaced shot can be easily punished by a decently timed dodge next to him. Despite it's lack of safety, if you need long range zoning that shoots through counterzoning aswell, you want this.

|
| Laguna pulls out a sticky bomb and throws it, distance based on charge. Fully charged the bomb will blink and can be held a little while. Charged time also affects the bombs speed, useful for some situations. The throw is a ranged low, the explosion however unblockable. If the bomb explosion hits without being stuck to something prior, it will also deal double damage.
| |
|
| |
|
| Once attached, the bomb will explode in ~3 seconds (186F). This can be dodged with good timing but it can also be used by Laguna for well timed dodge punishes or mindgames. With relatively good recovery, it also makes for a safe midrange check against other characters' setups. Have a shield up to prevent it just being punished by dash up.

| | Fully charged it will blink and can be held a little while after. Charge time affects both the speed and range thrown. |
| | |
| | The thrown bomb is a ranged low, but the explosion triggered after max distance and after sticking time is unblockable and can be converted off of with a variety of assists. |
| | |
| | If the explosion hits at max distance without sticking to something it will also hit twice for double damage. |
| | |
| | |
| | The sticking time can be used effectively for mindgames and it also makes for a somewhat fast and safe horizontal midrange check against neutral setups. Overall a fantastic tool to round out midrange presence in the air. |

| Laguna pulls out a grounded laser that unfortunately does not have infinite reach. TIME TO UNLOAD! Most of the time used to as combo ender and get a wall rush or distance, but has its uses on ground-to-ground interactions. The tracking is just enough to catch grounded side dodges and low air dodges with high fall speed e.g. Kain. At specific spacing it can also catch a grounded forward dodge.
| | A huge laser cannon with big range. |
|
| |
|
| At long range it still remains fantastic for huge whiff punishes against grounded HPs. Holding the move does not increase damage, but has a niche use in faking out against high priority blocks and against Exdeath's Maelstrom / Holy.

| Less niche than Satellite Laser, but still not strong enough to be thrown out at all times.

| His worst raw HP, but a staple in the areas it shines. Give it a try!
| | As a combo ender it does the most damage and will always ground rush them, making it the ideal choice whenever possible. |
| | |
| | A niche HP but with amazing properties to round out his long range pressure. |

| Laguna lifts up the Ragnarok and cuts down vertically with a long energy sword. An absolute staple of his punish game. GET EM!
| |
|
| |
|
| One of Laguna's fastest HPs. At a distance, the hitbox appears instantly right above him, and it has amazing horizontal tracking. Due to these properties it's fantastic for punishing other whiffed HPs and moves with high recovery / startup safely out of range.
| | An absolute staple of Laguna's midrange presence. Although on the riskier side, it is a rather fast HP, has huge range up and horizontally, fantastic tracking and huge wallrush range. |
|
| |
|
| Because it starts right above him, it can also be used to get matchup specific punishes where others can't, or without risking getting punished themselves. Ragnarok Blade has good knockback and thus a fairly big wall rush radius. The knockback angle is based on where Laguna hits from.
| | Where the move really shines is in his assist change and punish game, allowing Laguna to punish alot of slower moves on reaction with it and really put down neutral pressure in midrange. |
|
| |
|
| No matter where Laguna will always rise a little, making it something to be considered when used in tight spacing or with shield up.
| | The knockback angle is decided based directly on where Laguna hits from, which can be amazing to control wallrush angle whenever possible and hitconfirm with assists. |
|
| |
|
| | One of the drawbacks however is that its one of the easier assist punishes, and timing an assist punish while getting hit for a guaranteed break is very easy to land. Making note of the opponents resources before considering recommended. |

|
| Laguna fires out a particle in front of him, which splits into 3 homing energy orbs on release. The other risky, but still staple HP attack.
| |
|
| |
|
| The lasers all have a minimum travel time, making their initial turn based on distance between the initial shot and opponent. All 3 shots can be hit fairly consistently with assist setups. Homing is based on the opponent's current location with limited turn radius, making this a good dodge punish albeit not so good to chase them with.
| | Laguna shoots an energy ball that splits into projectiles after detonating. |
|
| |
|
| Laguna is stationary for the entire duration of the move, making it easily punished. Be aware of this and your opponents spacing before using it, you can still pop the laser early to try and catch the opponent's assist before it punishes. | | It's his fastest HP at 35F, suprisingly fast for an HP. Although it is easily assist punished on reaction, it should not be dismissed in neutral as it covers an angle right below Laguna and gives him ways to punish slower setup moves. He can also assist confirm off of this move, making it a fantastic HP poke to throw out in moderation. |
| | |
| | The move also has fantastic use in assist change punishes, allowing Laguna to punish alot of long HPs like Quick Hit with assist change. |
| | |
| | Notable the move also has top tier EX Force generation and multihit, and with the right spacing setup is able to hit 2-3 times for massive depletion or EX Force generation |

| This is actually a notable EX Burst. While the max damage with 100 is average as usual, the 32 base at the start before defense multiplier is the second highest in the game, tied with Lightning.
