Character Overview

Picking this character is like picking Akuma in Super Turbo, so don't expect people to respect you.

Pros	Cons
• Game-breaking forward dash: Forward dash that takes only 15 frames to traverse the entire screen and is almost fully invincible if done as a wake up option (completely invincible on P2 side) • Infinite: Has a rather easy infinite that works on every character • Diving Gaia Crash: Command grab that takes 1/3 of the opponent's health, which becomes absolutely terrifying when paired with her lighting speed forward dash • Amazing match ups: Uranus wins against the entire cast and completely invalidates half of them at high level of play	• Controversial: Banned at most tournaments, especially high profile ones.

Back Dash

44

Guard Level	Startup	Active	Recovery-Whiff	Motion	Advantage	Dmg/Face/Counter/Both/Chip
N/A	1	N/A	N/A	15	N/A	N/A
Strike, projectile, and throw invulnerable for 1~14 frames. Ever wanted to be full screen in an instant? This move does that.

Shadow Dash

66

Guard Level	Startup	Active	Recovery-Whiff	Motion	Advantage	Dmg/Face/Counter/Both/Chip
N/A	1	N/A	N/A	15	N/A	N/A
Move Distance: 154 Cancel LP or LK for ~+0F advantage. Cancel HP or HK for ~+12F advantage. Ever wanted to be right next to your opponent instantaneously from full screen, this move does that. This forward dash does not have invincibility frames unless done out of reversal. When done out of ground or air reversal, it is fully invincible. Absurdly overpowered and meta breaking. The best move in the game bar none. Uranus is nothing without this move.

Actually a bad fireball but because of forward dash it makes it the best fireball in the game since if it hit from fullscreen Brad gets an infinite and if you block in Brad still forward dashes and gets a free mix from fullscreen. Also 3 chip WTF

Ever wanted to do 21 damage from full screen? Neptune's grab does 20 damage btw

Guard Level	Startup	Active	Recovery-Whiff	Motion	Advantage	Dmg/Face/Counter/Both/Chip
	1	9	1	10	+20/D	67 / * / 68 / * / 1xN
Has some jank weaknesses if you know about it but as guard cancel option it's really good since Brad can punished spaced light attacks on her block with this.

Strategy

(None)

That about sums it up. Brad is immensely degen. Just pick player 2, do bad jump ins, then do wake up forward dash mixes into SPD of infinite and win. At best your opponent can do frame perfect options and grab you, so tech or take the throw and set up the forward dash mix up again. Or just don't forward dash on wake up as a mix and punish their grab button with an infinite. The odds are in your favor.

If you get player 1 your options are to sit full screen and punish a bad option via forward dash SPD or infinite, that's it. Reminder that this isn't a rushdown character, go play Neptune or mercury if you want that. Feel free to trade fireballs as yours do more damage. Remember that forward dash into grab is still completely invincible on wakeup as P1. If they actually jump at you GC SPD or just anti air LK/HK and hit them with the 50/50 cross up mix into infinite.

Match-ups

• Vs. Sailor Moon She throws a lot of fireballs but just call out a forward dash and you win

• Vs. Sailor Mercury Actually free if you play around her LK gimmicks

• Vs. Sailor Mars The only match that isn't free since fireballs cancel out, requires some thought and a modified version of the infinite in order to connect properly, probably 7-3 Brad

• Vs. Sailor Venus unwinnable as Venus

• Vs. Sailor Jupiter unwinnable as Jupiter, has a dumb corner option vs Brad she should never get

• Vs. Sailor Chibi Moon Actually a 11-0 matchup god this is bad for cheebs

• Vs. Sailor Uranus SMS hell, you chose this life

• Vs. Sailor Neptune unwinnable as Neptune

• Vs. Sailor Pluto unwinnable as Pluto once you play around jumping LP and bad fireball

Those are all the Matchups, you pretty much play the same in all of them. Playing Brad in SMS is actively choosing to not actually play in the SMS meta of character matchups and guard canceling and instead play your own game, Sailor Uranus S, which you just sit full screen waiting for an infinite opportunity. You have no right to complain about anything since you play Brad.

Fighting against Uranus

You can't. You can try, but any Uranus loss here is due to player error or netplay. Theoretically, Uranus should never lose.
