The Son of Dracula arrives in Super Smash Bros. Crusade!
Finally, here's a standalone release of Alucard! While he is already in CMC+ V5, this version I'm about to send to you all has some changes from that one. The changes being...
True Palette swaps: Choose between 8 colors to your heart's content!
Full compatibility with items: Wanna wack someone with the homerun bat as Alucard? Well this version lets you do just that!
A new F-Air animation: Watch those trails go wooosh!
And some extra polish from the one in the build that would take a while to mention.
BREAKDOWN:
Alucard is a mostly mid to close range fighter. His attacks with the sword have considerable reach while also being somewhat on the fast side of things. He also has a range of combos given his speed, along with reliable finishers when its the right time to seal a KO.
SPECIAL MOVES:
NEUTRAL SPECIAL - Hellfire: Fire 3 fireballs at the same time. Good for keeping your opponents at bay when they're at a distance.
Side SPECIAL - Wing Smash: Turn into a bat and fly! Anyone that's in your way will end up getting hit, allowing you to follow up with any move of your choice. The bat has a different hurtbox as it transforms, letting you dodge attacks you wouldn't otherwise.
Down Special - Wolf Charge: Turn into a wolf and charge headfirst! This attack is a multihit, with a strong finisher to seal out stocks. The aerial version is a dive that spikes the opponent. Much like the bat form, the wolf form has a different hurtbox as it transforms.
Up Special - High Jump: Jump reaaally high into the air, hitting opponents on your way up. You can angle it by pressing forward to go diagonally.
SPELLS
Alucard has a magic meter that is filled by hitting his opponents, with the right ammount, you can use many spells from the classic that is Castlevania Symphony of the Night!
DARK INFERNO: Press Attack+Special and Alucard will teleport, then attack by sending out two multihit fireballs. You can press left and right to move accordingly during teleportation or to turn around, or you can press shield as you reappear to cancel the attack entirely.
SOUL STEAL: Press Down Attack+Special at full meter and Alucard will deal damage to everyone in a radius, each time he hits someone, any damage dealt to Alucard is diminished.
DARK METAMORPHOSIS: Press Up Attack+Special and Alucard will grant himself a temporary buff to his damage and knockback, but has his defense cut in half as a penalty.
CREDITS SECTION:
Soulfire: Made the original sprites used in this mod for his MUGEN version of Alucard. Check out the video of it here!
