Inkling is a character that excels greatly in general movement, | Inkling is a character that excels greatly in general movement, has powerful projectiles for pressuring and setups, and is potent with her combo power. Additionally, they boast strong ground and aerial game, being able to dish out lots of damage. Inkling has an inking mechanic lifted from her game of origin that affects the power of certain moves such as her specials and smash attacks. Inkling can recharge her Ink Tank by holding shield and pressing the B button, which will fully recover the tank in roughly two seconds. Even with her fantastic set of strengths, there are some detrimental aspects of her moveset. Inkling's main weaknesses are that, without her ink sprayed on the opponent, she has trouble scoring kills, and she needs to manage her ink resource strategically, to not waste ink by constantly throwing out moves draining the tank. However, despite these cons, Inkling has great setups and ways to get around these weaknesses by playing wise and knowing what does and doesn't work. | ||
