What’s New in Asgore [v 0.9.5]
Move Remaster and Additions
- S-Tilt: Now features two parts. After the initial thrust, players can slam their opponent by pressing the attack button immediately.
- S-Smash: New mechanics allow directional influence:
- Up Direction: Orange flash with increased knockback but less damage.
- Down Direction: Blue flash with higher damage but reduced knockback.
- Neutral Direction: Standard damage and knockback.
- D-Smash: Transformed into a trident sweep with almost no startup lag, providing a faster and more reliable attack.
- New Taunt: Asgore now takes a moment for “tea time,” adding personality to his character.
Enhanced Visual Effects (VFX)
- Landing Visuals: New effects for D-Air landing, adding flair to his downward strikes.
- Nair Flames: Now spreads flames outward, visually highlighting his strength.
- Custom Sprites for Final Smash: Created specifically for this update, ensuring a visually unique experience.
Throw Overhauls
- F-Throw: A slam move that enables combo potential.
- B-Throw: Playfully described as a “yeet,” it emphasizes power and humor.
- U-Throw: Ends with a damaging explosion, useful for hitting multiple opponents.
Special Moves Reworked
- Fire Wall (Neutral B): Asgore creates fire orbs that invert before spreading out. These orbs pierce through enemies, causing significant damage.
- Blazing Rush (Side B): After preparing flames, Asgore charges forward. On contact, enemies take damage from both the flames and a trident swing that spawns additional outward-spreading flames.
- Risk Factor: Missing leaves Asgore vulnerable for a short time.
- Rising Trident (Up B): A vertical slash that lifts Asgore upward, followed by a downward trident slam. Landing triggers a powerful impact hitbox.
- Trident Throw (Down B): Players can charge the trident throw to increase damage, knockback, and distance. Directional throws determine how opponents are launched.
Final Smash: Inferno Slam
Ground Version: Slams the trident into the ground, triggering a shockwave that buries opponents. Flames spread outward before launching enemies upward in a fiery helix.
Aerial Version: Flames spread all around, dealing higher damage but offering less KO reliability.
Gameplay Style: Power Meets Precision
Asgore stands out as a character with quick, powerful moves that rely on timing and spacing rather than brute superarmor. His attacks are designed to reward precision, and his updated mechanics, like directional S-Smash and improved throws, add layers of strategy. Mastering Asgore will require understanding his vulnerabilities, such as the punishable cooldown on certain moves like Blazing Rush.
