Despite having a long range, very few of Lloyd's attacks actually cover his hurtboxes, leaving him vulnerable if his opponent gets uncomfortably close to him. He has some difficulty finishing off his opponents if he allows them to take too much damage. This weakness is further exposed by his greater tendency to end up offstage due to his below average weight. However, Lloyd's vertical recovery, Tiger Blade, covers a short vertical distance which makes it one of the worse recoveries in the game. All of these traits combine to give Lloyd not only an outstanding punish game, but also a great neutral game as well, allowing him to outperform virtually any opponent by utilizing different aspects of his incredibly diverse toolset to his advantage. He also possesses potent killing moves in his down smash, up smash, forward aerial, back aerial, forward tilt, and Sonic Thrust. He also possesses a projectile in Demon Fang, which can chain into itself at low percentages.
Unlike Falcon Kick, if used on the ground he will rise up into the air and then perform the move.
His down special move, Rising Falcon, is very similar to Captain Falcon's Falcon Kick, in which when used in air, he plunges downward, and regains his midair jump after using it. On top of this, he has a great onstage edge guarding game, due to the very long active duration on many of his attacks, especially Beast. He can also increase his horizontal distance in the air with Rising Falcon. He has the ability to immediately cancel his recovery into any aerial attack, which makes him very difficult to edgeguard due to his aerial prowess. He also possesses one of the longest grabs for its startup time, and good throws that allow for easy followups. Lloyd has very strong combo potential, above average ground mobility, fast attack speed, and disjointed hitboxes in almost all of his attacks. Lloyd currently ranks 3rd on the tier list, placing him in the S+ tier. Most of his special attacks involve him using tech artes from Tales of Symphonia. His sprites, taken from Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 3, are the same ones he had in Super Smash Flash - albeit with minor tweaks and modifications - making him the only character to have this distinction. Lloyd is a newcomer starter character in Super Smash Flash 2. For general information about the character, see Lloyd Irving. This article is about Lloyd's appearance in Super Smash Flash 2.
