| Can be dashed through and blocked aswell, making them not very useful to stop setups or threaten dashes. Although they do halt and limit movement due to the scattered tracking.

| 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.
| | |
| | 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. |
|
| |
|
| Notes about Reflect properties:
| | 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 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.
| | 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. |

| | Close range melee low to round out his all-range playstyle. |
| | |
| | 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. |

| | |
| | A huge laser cannon with big range. |
| | |
| | A great HP to intercept committal moves in midrange. Can be delayed to throw off punish attempts aswell and mix up characters with fast fall speed. |
|
| |
|
| | Delaying it to intentionally clash with HPs and assist punish staggers can also be tricky to handle. |
|
| |
|
| 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.
| | Notable one of the easiest ways to clash with Maelstrom/Holy to protect against them. |
|
| |
|
| 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.
| | A great combo ender after assists too to keep distance and wallrush. |

| One of the longest startup HPs, and a clutch tool for Laguna's matchups. BOMBS AWAY!
| |
|
| |
|
| Awful to use as a raw HP as it can be dashed through by the entire cast, but it has some good properties. It has infinite vertical range with a big horizontal tracking range, making Laguna able to threaten the opponent from ground to regardless of the opponent's altitude.
| | Huge startup, infinite vertical range and huge tracking range. |
| | |
| | As a raw HP can be thrown out as a read to directly punish slow startup moves in return. It has huge horizontal tracking and the infinite vertical range makes it able to catch them from any height. |
| | |
| | Alot of characters can horizontally dash through it, something to be aware of when throwing it out. |
| | |
| | Be aware of assist punishes aswell, as calling an assist right before it hits is a guaranteed bravery break for them. A |
| | |
|
| |
|
| Useful for a few matchups and to prevent easy stalling. When this move hits an airborne opponent, it will drag them down, and at most heights cause ground wall rush for an assist combo. Together with Sticky Bomb and other projectiles it makes for a tricky dodge-punish mixup, and sometimes even guaranteed one if they don't nail the perfect evasion.
| | As a combo ender it does the most damage and will always ground rush them, making it the ideal choice whenever possible. |
|
| |
|
| His worst raw HP, but a staple in the areas it shines. Give it a try!
| | 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. |
| | |
| | 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. |
|
| |
|
| 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.
| | 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 |
