Ike's Basic Moveset:

AAA Combo: Ike does a straight forward combo punch, kick, and slam with his blade. Has great knock back. This can also be used to the jab cancel to start up great combos with Ike. This is Ike's quickest move.

Forward Tilt: Ike slices in front of him. One of Ike's best (if not the best) ground based moves. Has incredible knock back. Use this for spacing. When tilted in upwards it can kill airborne enemies. If tilted downwards it can knock people of who are hang on the edge of the stage. Lag wise, its pretty fast and powerful.

Upward Tilt: Very effective on lightweights. Use this move after a jab cancel or a quickdraw.

Downward Tilt: One of Ike's spikes. When used on the edge off a stage it can mess up someone's recovery.

Forward Smash: Ike's most powerful attack. Strong enough to kill opponent (when full charged) at 20%. When not charged it can kill at the min of 60% or lower(depends on stage).

Up Smash: Very strong move for intercepting enemies in the air. Ike swing his blade in an arc movement above his head.

Down Smash: Excellent against opponent's that won't stop rolling. Ike swipes his blade infront and behind him. Can KO at high percents.

Neutral Air: Ike circles the blade around him. Opponent would have to be at very high percentage to be killed by this move. It is a quick move and can be used in combos with the neutral a jab.

Back Air: Ike swiftly swings blade behind himself while airborne. One of Ike's best moves if used correctly. It can and should be RAR'd (Reverse Aerial Rushed). It is a very good edge guarding moves.

Forward Air: Ike jumps in the air and slices you vertically with his sword. This move can spike people against the stage. Very good for Defense and Offense.

Down Air: Ike slams the opponent under him with his blade. A very fast and destructive spike. This can spike people at low percents. Make sure not to kill yourself when attemping.

Grab Attack: While grabbing Ike headbuts the opponent giving the damage. Gives 2-3% damage

Forward Throw: Ike grabs the opponent then kicks them forward. This move is very useful. It can be used in as chain grab if put to use with the neutral A jab cancel. Also, this can be used as a continuing grab. If the opponent is next to a wall, grab them ,throw forward , grab , throw forward and repeat so on.

Back Throw: Ike grabs the opponent then swings them behind them and does a back-heel kick. This can be combo'ed up with the d-air.

Down Throw: Ike grabs the opponent then throws them down and jumps/stomps them. Down throw can be combo'ed by a F-Air, a U-Air a Up-B or a D-Air.

Up Throw: Ike grabs the opponent then sticks his sword in the ground and slams them upward with his arms. This is usually followed up by Up-smash or Up-tilt.


Neutral B: Eruption: Ike holds his sword up and it blazes with fire, he then slams it into the ground causing an eruption. This move it all defense. Use it for edge guarding and frightening your enemies away. If they have courage to come up to you while you are charging to then they'd better have enough courage to dodge it.


Over B: Quickdraw: Ike glides over to the opponent or place designated from him to go. Used for recovery and wasting opponents shield.

Down B: Counter. Countering: Down B is one (if not best) of the games best defensive moves if used correctly. This move can be used any where to get yourself out off a tight stop. Just remember not to make your countering to predictalbe or use will end losing very quickly. This move can be used very effectivlly for edgeguarding. Also this is a nice shield when facing projectile "spammers".



Up B: Aether: Ike throws his sword up in a spiraling formation, jumps up to retrieve and slams back down to the ground. Great for stopping aerial opponents. It is also used for recovery. Also gives Ike super armor for the first part of the attack.

Dash Attack: Ike dashes forward and sweeps his blade in a downward semicircle. This has alot of range. Can be used as an edge guarding move.


Final Smash: Great Aether: When Ike obtains a smash ball he gets the power to use a special move called a "Final Smash". His Final Smash is "Great Aether. He swipes the opponent up into the air, lunges up to meet them, then unleashes a fury of attacks, and the ends with a fiery explosion the the ground.

Lol no one ever said it wasn't... Ryko might disagree with you though. XD

Looks great so far. I'd recommend going even more in-depth on Ike's moves (lag time on beginning and ending of the moves, best uses for each, autocanceling properties, combos, etc). Also discuss his edgeguarding and aerial game, and his matchups with against other characters.
