* '''Overly Deliberate''': Rugal's options are very direct. While he has options for most situations, he does not necessarily have many options that cover multiple things at once, not without heavy risk to himself. This means Rugal plays a very different game than most characters at the pure baseline, which can result in him missing out on opportunities that other characters get without much effort. | * '''Overly Deliberate''': Rugal's options are very direct.

One of the most legendary fighting game bosses of all time finally makes his return! Omega Rugal is a solid midrange defensive character with a suite of strong normals and specials. Rugal excels at the midrange poking game, with great normals like f.A, f.C, 2B, 2D and an incredible jump CD. He has generous hit-confirms windows off of 6B, cl.D and cl.C, which he can use to combo into a number of powerful special moves. If Rugal has meter, he can burn it to go into one of several wonderful EX special moves that give him ample opportunities for comboing midscreen and in the corner. His best feature is his defensive play: Rugal has two fireballs that cover different angles, a fullscreen laser super that can be used as a punish, a reflector for returning projectiles in fireball wars, and one of the best DPs in the game with an EX version that sends people completely fullscreen. And if people somehow get past all of that, he also has a rushing hit-grab super that drags his unfortunate foes all the way to the corner on hit. This combined with his poking normals can make him very hard to approach, especially if the Rugal player varies up their options consistently. Rugal's two biggest weaknesses are speed and confirms. While Rugal's options are all pretty solid, they tend to be quite slow and committal, or downright weird. This makes him susceptible to being counterpoked quite a bit, and he will require a bit more labbing than other characters just to figure out what move to use where in what situation. This becomes worse when taking his confirms into consideration, as he requires himself to be very close in order to get off his highest damage combos and best pressure strings. | One of the most legendary fighting game bosses of all time finally makes his return!

One of the most legendary fighting game bosses of all time finally makes his return! Omega Rugal is a solid midrange defensive character with a suite of strong normals and specials.
