Not to mention, you can even use some of these tools on yourself for added mobility! Sporting a versatile move set, Mega Water S will time and time again make a case as to why he's the strongest member of the unit!

Overview
MWS is a very strong midrange fighter, sporting completely average stats across the board. A burst fire option with the harpoons, a shield, an area of effect attack in barrier pop, alongside vertical mobility in geyser, and a way to force opponents back into the midrange with the stream, MWS is a very well rounded character who does not have many weaknesses outside of some extreme cases.

Main
Harpoon Burst

Harpoons are a burst of three projectiles that deal 10 damage each. They fire rather quickly, allowing MWS to fill corridors with reasonable effectiveness.

Alt
Water Stream

Depending on the weapon selected, MWS will either send out a pressurized stream of water, which will knock anyone it touches back, or he will stick his buster in the ground and create a geyser, which can force both him and enemies upward.

Item
Mega Water Barrier

Item allows MWS to put up his Mega Water Barrier when his 2nd ammobar is full, which gives him a barrier that can absorb 40% of damage, with 20 damage max. While using the barrier, the 2nd ammobar will begin to fill. This indicates the timer before it will pop, but also indicates the damage his barrier will do if it is forcibly popped, which one can do by pressing item while the shield is up.
