Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Justice League Turbo/Aquaman

This article is nice, but could use a little cleanup. This article currently could benefit from pictures, colors, and a bit more gameplay information. We'd be pleased if you could contribute!

Introduction

The royal sovereign of Atlantis, Aquaman has seen fit to ally himself with the Justice League in order to protect the seas as well as landwellers.

Despite all his undersea adventures, not even he has encountered anything like the Ninja Turtles, reptilian bipedals upon whom his trademark telepathy has no effect!

Character Overview

Complexity Rating -Beginner 1\5 - Advanced 2\5

The Justice League member from the sea comes into the strange land of TMNT with a straight foward and to the point style that is one of the safest in the game. Royalty is not one to play around, as combined with a solid projectile and overhead arching punch he can control several points of the screen at once and even more with super stocked. While his normal range on average leaves more to be desired, he comes packed with one of the best normal anti airs in the game, giving any opponent a second guess at jumping. This all becomes even better with omega where he gains an OTG that means he can juggle from nearly anywhere fron any knockdown.

While he might seem plain and boring at first (not surprising for those who look at Aquaman normally) give him some time and you'll be surprised what Atlantis's king can really do.

Strengths:

• Versatile and straight forward Moveset

• One of the safest characters in the game

• Can hit from a lot of different angles with specials and supers

• Diving Slam Omega OTG can make any knockdown a potential juggle, also giving him the strongest normal throw in the game

• One of the best CH AAs in the game in Crouching HP

Weaknesses:

• Can feel rather stubby overall at times

• Juggle Damage\stun is on the lower end even with multiple omega stocked

• Lots of ways to get juggles started, limited ways to keep them going

• No real gimmicks, needs fundamentals to break through a good opponent

Normal Attacks

Close Standing Heavy Kick [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_farhk.PNG|210x210px|center]] When Close

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 67 65 7 3 13 15 65 15 3/0 C/S/H A front kick. The fastest of his standing heavy attacks and the only one to not be negative on block. In neutral it's not a bad check for more block stun in block strings or as setup for his diving punches. This is the better of the two CPS kick chain enders as it has less push back then the far one with no change in damage. This also recovers faster then his other heavies, so it can give you more time in juggles.

Far Standing Heavy Kick [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_clhk.PNG|210x210px|center]] When Far

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 67 68 8 4 13 14 18 15 1/-2 C/S/H An angled high kick. The farthest reaching of any of Aquaman's pokes with a huge hit box in front of him, making it a good poke to test things with. It is also cancelable, but both it's range and push back means the only things that will really connect after are omega water spray or super 1.

Special Moves

Water Spray (Light/Heavy) [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]] /

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 65/10 68 13 - 27 /23 23 /25 28 25 5/2 3/0 - A water based projectile. It has a decent hit box that will cover most moves any opponent can throw at it. The main difference between the strengths is recovery speed, with LP being slower and HP faster. The HP version is a usual ender in far juggles after Diving Punch OTG. The LP version on hit pointblank has enough advantage after, but options after are very limited.

Water Spray Ω [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]] +

- Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 65/10 68 7 26 21 68 25 7/4 - Omega version of water spray. The water ball here is MUCH faster, easily able to suddenly snipe people from afar. It's speed is both a boon and curse, as it makes it harder to use in juggles after canceling from moves farther away while maintaining your juggle limit.This is also your main juggle extender with lots of omegas stocked as it's very easy to do in succession. When done in a standing combo you actually are plus enough to link after easily, but options to link after are limited.

Diving Slam (Light/Heavy) [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]] /

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 95(50+45)/12x2 120x2 26 /29 15 /19 9 16 18 16 2/0 - A jumping double handed slam. A key move for Aquaman that does a lot for him; going over moves, can hit air to air for SP AA juggles, does high stun (120 per hit) and even hits overhead. It does require some timing for countering opponents in air as the hit box does not come out until Aquaman flips and starts to descend. The difference between button pressed is the distance jumped, LP being lower to the ground while HP is much higher. Anywhere you can fit this move in will make you win all the more faster.

Diving Slam Ω [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]] +

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 95(50+45)/12 30x2 18 17 12 14 18 16 O86/2 - Omega version of diving slam. It's more like the LP version being lower to the ground while having much faster start up, being able to link from some heavy attacks. It's hitbox is also much larger, even able to be hit behind Aquaman when landing in a cross up situation on wake up. The second hit has the unique property to throw behind Aquaman and that hit will be an OTG. This will make it that you can juggle after for 36F, but it will NOT restore any juggle points so only works as a juggle starter such as after a sweep or throw. It is a poor choice in juggles as you will only hit the first hit and then immediately throw the opponent only getting 50 damage as the OTG hit does no damage.

Double Punches (Light) [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]]

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 75(35+25+15)/18(6x3) 60(20x3) 8 22(8[9]5) 12 11 18 13 4/-1 - Aquamans's first set of light punches, an uppercut into a back fist. It does a decent amount of damage, but it's main use is a safe block string ender after most heavies being only -1 on block. On hit you are +4, but not close enough to link into anything. The back fist does two hits, not making this a good choice in juggles normally, but as his first hit shares the hitbox of his cr HP while moving forward it can make for a quick Special AA starter with the next two punches keeping it going.

Double Punches (Heavy) [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]]

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 90(30x3)/6x3 75(30+20+25) 11 26(6[13]7) 11 16 18 13 O57/-3 - Aquaman's second set of double punches, this one a back fist into an uppercut. This is his usual juggle starter (18F) in the corner with needing to use an omega diving punch to get a juggle mid screen. This does start up slower then his other double punches although it has more start up range giving you more room to link from.

Double Punches Ω [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_Template:Move.PNG|210x210px|center]] +

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 95(25+20+15+35)/24(6x4) 90(20+25+30+20) 9 40(4[7]9[10]10) 12 21 14 14 O56/-7 - Omega Double Punches, which is his LP double punches with an added end slide. This is Aquaman's dedicated reversal, having 11f frames on invincibility on start up (past the first punch hitting) and the ability to juggle after standing hit(18f). This is one of the few unsafe moves Aquaman at -7 with a 3F gap in between the punches and the slide. While being his strongest special move it's nigh impossible to use in juggles, with the last two punches sending high compared to the tiny hitbox of the slide without recovering in time to juggle after.

Super Moves

High Tide Ω [[File:TMNTxJL_Template:Char_super1.PNG|210x210px|center]] + With Full Super Meter and either 3 Sources() OR With 1 Source And Full Health

Damage/Chip Damage Stun Guard Level Startup Active Recovery (whiff) Recovery (hit) Hit Stun Guard stun Advantage on Hit/Block Cancelable? 385/15 10 20 10 O44/-13 An omega version of high tide 1. Has 14f startup invincibility.This keeps most of the same properties in speed and hit box, so most of that still applies to this move. One big thing aside from the damage increase is that Aquman will uppercut them on the final hit, which makes him keep the corner without needing to jump.

Combos & BnBs

Aquaman's combos are pretty simple and to the point, mainly going from his CPS chains into ST HP\CL ST HK into HP double punches to begin juggles. Options in juggle tend to be a heavy into either heavy into lp diving punch for stun or heavy into omega water spray (as many as you can) into super.

Here are some examples.

Cr LK > cr LP (x2) > ST HP > HP Double Punches > Cr HP > LP Diving Punch (> Omega Water Spray x N)

ST LP X 3 > ST HP > HP Double Punches > Cr HP > Omega Water Spray (xN) > Super

Throw > Omega Diving Punch > ST HK > (Omega Water Spray) > Super 2
