Key Insights

Meet the Bomb-Destructive Stars

Here’s your insider guide to the top explosive characters inside the collection:

1. Archer

Known as one of Capcom’s most tactical gun-wielding destroyers, Archer brings precision and power. His signature Destructive Drop strike unleashes a chained bomb-like projectile that barrels through combos and corners alike. Perfect for punishing opponents with consistent, explosive damage.

4. Dynasty Warriors-style Overlord (Special Edition Boost)

In special copies or promotional bundles, a reimagined Overlord brings “Bomb Rush” combos—succession of swift, area-damaging stomps and overhead blasts that turn control blewz into bombs of destruction.

5. Drafty Nox (New in Collection Exclusives)

A fan-favorite for balance and chaos, Drafty Nox unleashes a shockwave pulse from his tremor-infused strikes. His Ear-Splitting Bomb combo creates a wide-area protective blast followed by a high-damage single burst—perfect for flanking or ending fights.

Exploiting the Bomb Mechanics: Tips and Tricks

Unlocking the full potential of these explosive fighters requires more than just button mashing. Here are gameplay secrets to master:

• Charge Up Destructive Strikes: Many bombers like Archer and Drafty Nox have charge mechanics—prolonging your input builds larger, more powerful bomb meters. Time your combos precisely to maximize damage.
  
• Mix Ground and Air Bomb Strikes: Use verticality wisely. Hypercharged air bombs deliver massive vertical knockbacks; counter with ground slams to reset positioning.
  
• Timing is Everything: Explosive combos often have short windows. Practice the rhythm—landing hitbox kills or counter-shocks just as the bomb barrels toward full charge.
  
• Pair with Counter Kontrol: Explosive fighters thrive on JSON disruptions. Learn to trigger stuns on enemy projectiles to land clean, high-damage combos.
  
• Special Moves = Catastrophic Potential: Many Ultra Combo finishers include explosive triggers—save them for bosses or late-game thrillers.
