Playstyle
Yei is a versatile player, able to switch playstyles quickly when necessary. His most consistent approach, however, is to maintain an aggrresive, yet calculated and patient neutral game. From his aggression, he will go for deep edgeguards, juggles, and early kills.
For Chrom, he emphasizes on strong spacing and ledgetrapping. For Meta Knight, he plays for combos, spacing, and quick edgeguarding, while also using Meta Knight’s jumps to make his landings difficult to punish.
