Guilty Gear/Axl Low

Axl Low is a British time traveler from the 20th century. He enters the Sacred Knights Tournament in hopes of finding a way back to his time period and his girlfriend. Axl is a master of Kusarigamajutsu. His name and appearance is based on Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose.

Axl Low fights using his kusarigama, giving his attacks excellent range as compared to the other fighters. He can act as a good fighter for beginners looking to go through the game by playing keep-away, but using Axl effectively requires some practice. His great range comes with its trade-offs, one being his health. Attacks do a bit more damage to Axl than the other fighters, so make sure you know how your opponent's move set works before jumping into a fight. Exercise those reflexes by starting on a lower difficulty and practice his attacks in training mode. Another downside to playing as Axl is his speed. Missing hits comes with a hefty price, leaving him vulnerable to the opponent's attacks for a large amount of time. Though Axl's range allows him to take some easy victories, his learning curve should not be taken lightly.

As an AI, Axl will constantly try to zone and use his range against you. Never let him get too much distance; combo him into a corner if you have to. Axl won't have many alternatives once his guard breaks.
