Overlord (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate RP Reboot)

**Tier** | N/A (**-**)

**The Overlord** is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate RP Reboot.

## Attributies

The Overlord's is one of the strongest characters in the game in terms of raw knockback power, excelling at killing opponents at mid-low percentages easily. He relies mostly on Bait & Punish and Tech Chase tactics, having powerful moves to compensate his lack of speed. His massive power is also reflected in his weight, being the fifth heaviest in the game, meaning he is very hard to launch and can sustain high percentages before being KO'ed, sometimes exceeding 200% and still being able to return, depending on the angle he is launched.

All his attacks, save for his throws, are very powerful and have quite large hitboxes, but even with his natural high knockback power, he can still follow up many attacks. Up Aerial is one of his main combo tools, being his attack with the lowest base knockback, also being a very good gimping tool. It also has hitbox by the end of the move that sends opponents downwards; not a true Meteor Smash, but is still very useful, specially if used from behind. At low percentages, his Dash Attack can be followed up by many attacks, such as Forward Aerial, Up Aerial and Up Smash, depending on how and when it its.

One of his best characteristics is how he can cancel the lag of some moves, most notably Up Smash and short-hop Back Aerial. By inputting another command right after those moves end, Overlord can follow up with many attacks, ranging from Tilts and Smash Attacks to Grabs and Special Attacks. Also, Overlord has a good variety of moves with different knockback angles. His Up Smash deals high vertical knockback, while his Forward Tilt is notable for the horizontal knockback, and his powerful Down Aerial is the strongest Meteor Smash in the game, with a massively powerful hitbox.

However, Overlord has his flaws. His recovery is a huge problem for him. His slow speed, both on ground and air, makes this even worse, as if knocked back horizontally, he may be unable to reach the edge due to the slow movement speed. This results in Overlord being weak against fast-moving, high-pressure characters. He does, however, have some spacing tools that can help against faster characters, such as a well timed Curse Foot, his Neutral and Down Aerials and his Forward Tilt.
