Overview
Azrael is a member of Sector Seven who spends most of his time moving from one battle to the next in search of a strong opponent. He is entirely obsessed with using his own raw power to fight, and has never used a weapon. However, due to his super-human strength, he can't go all out in battle; thus, he has imposed a limiter of some sort on himself.
Azrael is a big, heavy-hitting offensive character. He has to effectively use his teleport dashes to get around the screen, and try to get in on the opponent. Once in he has to use his pokes and various specials to get a combo that usually ends with a "weakpoint" attack. Azrael's unique Drive is the ability to apply weakpoints, which can lead to big damage.
Drive: The Terror
Azrael's Drive attacks reveal weakpoints when they hit the opponent. Weakpoints are active for roughly 17 seconds before disappearing if not used.
- Upper Weakpoint Moves: 5D / 6D / j.D / 236D
- Lower Weakpoint Moves: 2D / 3D / j.2D / 214D
These moves gain new properties when you hit the corresponding weakpoint. This consumes the weakpoint, but you can re-apply it in the same combo. Of course, the moves apply the same weakpoints that they get the additional properties from. All regular ground Drives can potentially be followed up on CH without weakpoint. Hornet (and possibly Valiant), can be followed up on CH with a regular-style combo, and you can use the weakpoint earned within that very same combo. Each Drive's "weakpoint version" has repeat proration.
The properties the moves gain:
- 5D – Staggers, can go into 5B>~ for a combo.
- 2D - Knockdown, which can be followed up with 2A>5A>5B to aerial.
- 6D - Bounces, goes into 5B>TCL,etc.
- 3D - Bounces, Goes into 5B>~.
- j.D / j.2D - Ground bounces the opponent into the air to follow-up with a combo, staggers on ground hit. j.D is used rarely out of the corner, as the ground bounce knocks them away. While possible, it is hard to follow up in most cases.
- 236D (Valiant Crash) - Knocks the opponent away, enabling Valiant Charger. Can repeat (6>5C) multiple times for insane corner carry, or various other attacks in the corner.
- 214D (Hornet Bunker) – Sort of like Guilty Gear's Dust. Enables Hornet Chaser to be used, followed up with aerial combos.
- 236236D (Black Hawk Stinger) - Can't be blocked high with UW, or low with LW. Unblockable with both but can be Barrier blocked if in the air.
Overdrive: Mind Colosseo
Azrael's Drive attacks now reveal weakpoints even on block. Weakpoints are not used up when you hit the opponent with weakpoint moves. Weakpoints do not disappear over time like they normally would as long as OD is active. Black Hawk Stinger and Scud Punishment are enhanced. You can use each of Azrael's Drive attacks in the same combo for big damage. On top of that, Azrael can now special-cancel his Drive normals.
Pros/Strengths
- High amount of health.
- Does solid damage on average (Weakpoint damage considered).
- Does great meterless damage with Weakpoints.
- Intimidating pressure that can discourage people from disrespecting you, which in turn allows you to go for mixups (dash cross-ups, basic high/low mixups).
- Has a great backdash for getting out of pressure midscreen.
- Has a decent anti-projectile move (214B - Growler Field), that can also absorb projectiles and gains one of his own in return (up to 3). You can also choose to shoot it back right after absorption.
- Because of his health, backdash, reversal super, DP and Growler Field, opponents need to know how to deal with his wakeup options.
- Valiant Charger combos give great corner carry and good damage, and can be burst-safe.
Cons/Weaknesses
- Large body, relatively slow character (slow walking speed).
- 5A/2A have short reach, doesn't have a good balance of move ranges and startup speed.
- While his forward dash is great for offense, it can be awkward to move around with. Neutral can be difficult against chars and players that can zone effectively.
- Pressure can be short, and falls to proper use of Barrier and IB. Players can take advantage of gaps with reversals/quick moves, especially with IB.
- Big damage combos require you to have weakpoints already applied in most cases.
- Below-average defensive options: his DP is slow and can be low profiled by many different things, his backdash is less effective in the corner, and Scud Punishment is slow and has a very linear hitbox.
