Builder

The Builder Enters Smash!

The Mii
Since the Builder is customisable in their games, you can really make them look as you like with different hair colour and eyes, however I based mine off the default builders from DQB1 as Sword fighters.

The Builder has two forms, their Light clothing, which uses the Standard outfit and the Hero’s Armor, which uses the Erdricks Armor; in both cases, the female Builder can use Veronicas Hat too!

For the Voice, The male Builder uses Type 5 High and the female uses Type 4 Normal.

The Moves
The Builders moves are all references to DQB1 and DQB2, for neutral special, they Wield the Flame sword, enchanted with fire magic (Blurring Blade) which appears in both games. For Side Special, they Dash Forward with a single strike (Gale Stab) similar to the Dash in DQB2, for Up Special, they use the Spinning Slice (Hero’s Spin) the first magical spell they learn in both games. Finally, they can Counter many attacks for Down Special with their precise sword use (Blade Counter).

The Style
As previously said, they have access to the Heroes Armour as a alternate, however this is not only cosmetic, the armour will provide different spirits to use in battle. Firstly, the Light Armor uses the Boulder Style to boost movement and defence by a good amount, the Armored Variant however, uses Land Style, this will make sense later, but overall boosts ground activity and nerfs recovery.

The Spirits
First off, for the Light Armor, we use A ‘Landing Lag ↓’ Spirit And two ‘Breaking Ability ↑’ Spirits to give a tight movement that goes well with Boulder styles fast but low jump style. As for The Hero’s Armour, I used a ‘Lightweight’ Spirit and ‘Slow Super Armor’ Spirit to give very good knock back defence at the cost of some mobility, however lightweight will prevent this without just giving the builder super armor.

Analysis
The Builder has very unique Playstyles, the Light Armor for a weak but quick fighter or The Hero’s Armour for a more slow paced powerhouse. This expands the characters use and adds to its uniqueness, which makes the Builder one of the more versatile characters in the MFP!
