Gameplay Overview

Maxima is a rather unorthodox grappler whose gameplan revolves not around landing command grabs, but using his set of powerful space control tools to get in and shut the opponent down entirely.

Maxima's signature special move is Vapor Cannon (214P[P]), an attack with very interesting properties. Besides always granting a hard knockdown on hit, it wallbounces on counterhit, leading to devastating levels of damage. Vapor Cannon is also very hard to punish and has a ridiculous amount of guard damage, which overall makes it a very scary move to deal with. The aerial version (j.214P[P]) is a near-instant overhead. His sole command normal, M-9 Maxima Missile (Prototype) (3C) has some frightening properties as well. Besides being able to cancel from light normals, it puts the opponent into a juggle state if they're in the air, leading to immensely damaging combos that don't require meter. If that wasn't concerning enough, Maxima also has an anti-air grab in Maxima Blitz Cannon (623K[K]), which has very fast startup. In short: You don't want to jump in on Maxima. You will regret it.

Once Maxima gets in, it's hard to get him out. All of Maxima's heavy normals have upper body armor (except for his sweep, which has lower body armor), which can make it very difficult to counterpoke him. Even his blowback has upper body armor, and wallbounces the opponent on counterhit (similar to Vapor Cannon) and gives a sliding hard knockdown on air hit. Try to keep him out of range, and you might find yourself having to deal with M-24 Atomic Laser (236236K[K]) an immensely active fullscreen laser blast that beats projectiles and supers of the same level. It's so active, in fact, that it cannot be jumped over or rolled through, and you will always be forced to take a large amount of chip damage. Try to get too close, and you might get hit by an EX Blitz Cannon, a fully invincible command grab that hits even grounded opponents, or a light Maxima Press (624B), a frame-1 command grab that sends the opponent back to their side of the screen with Maxima.

And when Maxima has finally beaten the opponent mentally, he becomes a one-of-a-kind nightmare. Maxima has huge damage in every area across the board, from poking, to punishes, and breaking the opponent open, such as with heavy Maxima Press (624D), a fast dashing command grab that goes almost fullscreen and is relatively difficult to counterpoke. Maxima can easily whittle down vulnerable opponents in mere seconds.

However... if you're not afraid of Maxima, then it's a different story. Big, sluggish, and very immobile, Maxima is prone to getting obliterated by opponents with good offense and defense. But if you like the idea of playing a walking tank who can blow up opponents just as hard as he can get blown up himself, then Maxima might be your character. Maxima is best played in battery or anchor position, as he performs much better with meter on hand.

Maxima is a unique powerhouse character who excels at destroying the opponent with powerful mixups when he gets in.
Pros	Cons
Tanky: Upper body autoguard on all his heavy pokes, such as the cancelable 2C and CD. With the high hitstun of these moves there has never been an easier far standing normal hitconfirm into Max Mode. Great Up Close: Maxima has a wide variety of big buttons, and gets fantastic reward off many of his options. A single hit can easily lead into a devious oki situation for the game. Fantastic Mixups: Maxima gets lots of hard knockdowns and safejump option selects once he wins neutral. After this, he gets a ridiculous midscreen offense game with a high chip-damage pressure reset, left/right setups, a 1f command grab, a high damage instant overhead that grants HKD, massive jumping buttons, and frametraps galore. No Jumping In: Highly damaging anti-air combos from 3C and a very good anti air special force characters to approach on the ground, which Maxima is great at stopping. Safejumps from anything: Going into any of his BNBs gives maxima easy 4f safejumps. Which are perfect for a character that deals so much damage.	Incredibly Slow: Maxima's movement on the ground and in the air are some of the slowest in the game. If this wasn't bad enough, all of his moves are both slow in activation and recovery, making him both slow to start and committal. Terrible Lows: Maxima's 2B is frame 7, unchainable, has bad whiff recovery, and requires him to be very close to get anything off it. And that's his best low. Awful vs Ground Fireballs: Maxima's speed already gives him issues here, but his lack of ways to actually deal with ground fireballs in constructive ways is a major hurdle. Stubby: Despite his size, Maxima's moves are stubbier than you'd expect. When tied with his speed, it makes his pokes much worse than they seem. Pisspoor Abare: As a character with 5-frame status, Maxima is really unfortunate when it comes to abare (for reference, Antonov, the biggest character is the game, is 4-frame status). His frame-1 command grab has extremely short range, which makes it very hard for Maxima to get sticky opponents off of him.

Quick Combo Reference

In a nutshell

• Basic combo route is (any normal) > 3C > 214A > [anything].
• If you have half a bar to spare: (any normal) > 3C > 214AC > 214A.
• Max damage for 50% bar: (any normal) > 3C > 214AC > microstep > 3C > 214C = 340~395 dmg. Very meter efficient combo and the BNB you should use the most when not trying to combo into supers. There is almost no reason ever to not use this combo due to the damage and meter efficiency.
• Combo into (EX) Maxima Press for great oki: (any normal) > 3C > 214AC > microstep > 3C > 624BD > 214P = 372~427 + corner safejump for 1 meter.

Can be whiff canceled to gain more range on specials. Causes a hard knockdown on air hit. Maxima has a very unique blowback with different properties than every other blowback in the game. It does 90 damage instead of the usual 75. It also causes a sliding hard knockdown on air hit, similar to the knockdown you get from 214P, and a wall bounce on counter hit, allowing for juggles. This is a useful and rewarding neutral tool as long as you're wary of its speed. You can switch up the range of your whiff cancel with a delay cancel, but it's tricky. Connecting this midscreen and then using 236AC will allow you to follow up with 3C 214C.

Combos from lights, used to convert into specials that normally only cancel from heavies. Forces standing on grounded opponents. Shifts Maxima forward slightly. Connects from st.A at closer ranges. Legitimately one of the scariest anti-airs in the game and one of the main reasons you shouldn't try to jump in on Maxima if he's not vulnerable. Connects into 214P, 623K, and 624BD (must be delayed) if it anti-airs.

Always causes a hard knockdown, unlike most other physical specials. Causes a wall-bounce on counterhit, allowing for extensions similar to the EX version. Vapor Cannon has a projectile hitbox and is therefore immune to physical counters. This is the move that defines Maxima. Massive hit, block and guard damage, safe to very plus on block, wallbounces on counterhit, and to top it all off, Vapor Cannon has a static projectile hitbox, which means Vapor Cannon cannot be countered whatsoever. Sooner or later, Vapor Cannon will end up killing the opponent, whether it be through hit confirms, chip outs, or a guard crush. Vapor Cannon's only weakness, if any, is its startup. Meterless Vapor Cannon's minimum startup is 19 frames, so savvy players can counterpoke Maxima during pressure strings. It doesn't help that Maxima mostly lacks plus-on-block buttons. Maxima's buttons are also quite slow, so he's quite prone to getting stuffed out before he can mount an offensive.

If 624B is inputted, Maxima will reach forward with a grab that has 1 frame of startup. If 624D is inputted, Maxima will briefly pause before launching himself forwards to grab the opponent. Both versions end with Maxima slamming the opponent into the corner of the screen and function as good mixup tools. Both versions have a followup that tacks on an additional 40 damage, but decreases oki slightly. 624B: Extremely short range, which makes it very hard to land. Works as a "get off me" button on wakeup and as an up-close mixup. 624D: Faster than it used to be, but still too slow to be used in combos. Basically just a midscreen threat when the opponent is too scared to fight back. 624BD: A hitgrab, meaning it can't be used for mixups. The only version that can reliably be used as a combo ender. Combos from lights. The followup for this version does 10 more damage than the meterless versions.

Has some decent forward movement, but needs to be used from farther ranges in order to be safe. 236A: Combos from lights, but carries a risk of being blocked if Maxima isn't very close. Soft knockdown. 236C: Doesn't combo from anything, but has upper body armor in its later startup frames, which can make it hard to counter. Important in corner juggles, where 623K will almost always hit. Hard knockdown. 236AC: Faster than 236C and also has armor in its later startup frames. Causes a significantly longer knockdown than the meterless versions.
