Aeon General Discussion / Q&A

Well, the 214B+G glitch in SC2 was banned and not quite as consistent as it was in SC3. It was allowed in SC3 because, I mean, you had to have something like that in SC3 just to keep your head above water.

Also, I don't think the SC2 version let you get free-whatever-you-want... but I can't really remember, all i remember you being able to do is cancel it into another grab and breaking the camera, haha.
 
I never really used SC2 Lizardman.
I didn't get big into playing other people until 3, and as I recall those three bonus characters couldn't be used in single player modes or something?
 
It's really not much more to talk about because he isn't that complex a character.

How about I wish his fly stance from neutral was more useful. Has anyone found any uses for it?

Yes I use A+B by itself occasionally. At range for Mind Games. It's not good. But it's hilarious and can work.
Mix up empty SW into 66A/2A with SW K. lol. Also you can use it as a super TJ and slam people on the ground with your forehead. It works, I've done it.

Edit: It's kind of a taunt with bad options:)
 
This is probably way old to you hip and knowledgeable people but I was playing Broken Destiny and I noticed that Aeon and Kratos share a lot of similar moves. Also, Aeon dropped his shield and picked up a second axe similar to Kratos's dual blade style. Does this mean Aeon ate Kratos between SC4 and SC5? Because that would be impossibly badass.

Yea that was mentioned in the art book or his bio on the website. He ate both Kratos and Spawn.
 
Either that or he got to get a good nibble of them and survived. Both conclusions still make him a badass reptile offscreen, though.

Also Sand Winger is terrible as a stance forever, as everybody already knows. Could have at least had options like DJ Fly stance, but nope. Maybe he needs to do more 66A and munching on guest characters to appease Namco for pointless buffs.
 
I think an AT instead. Give DJ's FLY B to Aeon.
DJ's AT was what I was thinking of when I posted that. It would be much cooler as an actual command grab though. That way you have the grab for people who try to step SW, SW K for people who catch on and try to duck the grab, and SW BE for when they're scared or if they hesitate and second-guess themselves after you go into SW.

Or maybe DJ's FLY A turned into a grab that tracks fully. He grabs their head lifts them up a bit and slams them back down and also a crouch grab from SW that grabs their stomach and then breaths fire straight into their face doing good damage.

A high/low grab mixup out of SW? That would actually make that stance worthwhile IMO.

I don't know why they gave Aeon the ability to breathe fire and then only actually let him do that in two moves. Seems like such a waste. Another ridiculous thing PS should give Aeon is a grounded version of SW BE that he can combo after, although it would have short range (he breathes it at a similar angle to the SW version). That would make his close up game super scary.

Also, SW BE and his CE are terrible. SW BE is only good in a couple situations and CE is only good for RO, ground hit, and if the opponent has miniscule health so that the roll will kill cause you can wait for it... JG the fire after the roll.
