== Introduction ==
No really, he's the "Shoto" of the game. A balanced character with balanced traits, simple and easy to pick up, and doesn't lack in many areas. His primary strength is neutral, having quick, safe normals with sizable hitboxes, and strong fireball play to keep his opponent out, even a DP for reversals. These many things make him a great choice for any team.
