Julius: Difference between revisions

Julius is a powerful opponent, possessing immense physical strength and a devastating combat style similar to commercial wrestling. Julius is very agile despite his large size, and is capable of running swiftly and leaping great distances and heights. His basic attacks include a quick uppercut-like punch, a downward arcing punch, and a basic straight punch. He may perform a combo in which he knocks the player upward using the uppercut twice, then knock them back down to the ground using the arcing punch. Julius may also take off at a run and leap into the air to come crashing down in an elbow drop, and begin to run across the arena at high speed to ram into the current character. His most dangerous attack at first is a barrage of swinging punches as he moves forward, preceded by him punching his fists together in warning. The attack is very difficult to dodge unless the player is a significant distance from Julius when he begins the attack, as he will quickly turn to keep coming at the player. All of these attacks except for the elbow drop and his running around the arena can be blocked, but only Riku can block the barrage of punches using Dark Barrier, as the quick turns Julius performs causes him to attack from other directions other than head-on, which Sora's normal Block command cannot stop. Julius may also perform a slower attack in which he smacks the ground, then unleashes a one-two punch. If the first punch connects, he will grab the character and belch on them, inflicting {{c|Blind|status}}, {{c|Poison|status}}, and {{c|Confusion|status}}. His most powerful attack involves him jumping to the tallest building, and then leaping through the air to crash down. The punches can be blocked but the ground smack and aerial crash cannot. The aerial crash is also very difficult to dodge. Using Superglide for Sora is recommended to dodge it safely. Flowmotion for both characters is also an option to dodge it, but is not always reliable, as Julius can break the poles around the arena to limit Flowmotion's effectiveness.
