Strengths Weaknesses
  • All-rounder - Average to good stats, HP links and a fundamentally good moveset with an answer to many sitations.
  • User-friendly - Great for beginners and experienced players alike, good for learning the game and honing fundamentals.
  • Command block - Shield of Light is an advancing single hit HP attack that can block instantly throughout it's startup to call out attacks or protect himself after dodging.
  • Ground combat - Projectiles and empty chase assist combo starters allow Warrior of Light to adapt to a match's pace and improve his combo potential.
  • Build synergy - Works well with all common build styles, including balanced EX builds, bravery boost on dodge and Side by Side accessory_special.png.
  • EX generation - Most bravery attacks produce 30 to 90 EX Force, supporting long-term survivability with EX.
  • EX Mode - Boasts highest defense stat, automatically blocks Ranged Low projectiles and increases damage output of melee bravery attacks.
  • Struggles against traps - Despite having projectiles and disjoints, Warrior of Light cannot easily punish characters hiding inside lingering projectiles and traps without resources or considerable risk.
  • Commital vertical attacks - Rising Buckler and Shield Strike braveries are serviceable, but are reactable and cannot be cancelled early on whiff.
  • 4-slot bravery dilemma - Warrior of Light benefits from all of his air braveries, but he cannot equip all of them
  • Floaty air dodge, risky dodge protection - While Shield of Light is great at covering his air dodges, it is also high risk and doesn't work against high priority attacks. Outside of clashing with Dayflash bravery, air dodges make Warrior of Light vulnerable.
