Strengths Weaknesses
  • Traps and Keepaway: Emperor specializes in Traps and Keepaway, layering multiple projects into a space to create a literal minefield for the opponent to deal with
  • Unique Win Condition: Starfall gives him a unique win condition in the form of a move that is unavoidable once it started, but takes time to be charged. This gives him a tool to force approaches and force them to interact with his traps in some way
  • Defensive mixups: Low recovery on most of his moves, projectiles staying while getting hit and low dodge recovery give Emperor plenty of options after any move to keep the opponent guessing on how to approach him
  • Assist Gain: A combination of low recovery moves, rotating them, Starfall lets Emperor quickly build assist meter while setting up his gameplan, often staying afloat in the meter economy
  • Polarizing matchups: Both a good and a bad thing. With all his upsides, Emperor lacks severely in rushdown, giving him the most polarizing matchup spread in the entire game. Some characters are outright denied with the right conditions and some give him absolute hell without stage counterpicks. Any character that can play around Starfall and traps requires a different approach to beat
  • Polarizing stage strengths: Stages change The Emperor's gameplan harder than many other characters, requiring you to sometimes learn new effective strategies for some of the more unorthodox / smaller stages
