Pros
- F.A.N.G. has a unique damage over time effect, with V-Skill and all contact specials inflicting poison status on his foe.
- A wide array of unique, space-controlling projectile moves allows for harassment from any range.
- He has great anti-air and anti-ground normals at all ranges.
- His V-Trigger is easy to apply.
Cons
- Relatively slow offensive movements (forward jumps and Nikankyaku command dashes) will require conditioning to land against truly quick players.
- F.A.N.G. has no true reversal, as he is reliant on EX Nikankyaku to escape danger.
- With low pure damage, his output must be supplemented with poison.
Your objective is to harass the enemy from mid to long range, applying poison and coaxing them into mistakes. Achieve this by:
- Keeping Ryobenda, Nishikyu, and Nishodoku projectiles on screen when possible
- Resisting pressure with F.A.N.G.’s powerful normals
- Canceling close to mid-range hits into special move enders, knocking the enemy away and poisoning them
- Using his V-Trigger to open up combo potential and inflict damage with his mere presence
