Stripe combos

Using his grounded or aerial neutral-normal, Stripe can lock his opponents into hitstun with a buzzsaw. Afterwards, he can follow up with a forward-air to try to force his opponent off-stage. This is a great position for Stripe, since down-air is his strongest and fastest kill move.

Stripe can also start combos off of his down-special if he is able to follow his opponent’s knockback influence.

In particular, these can lead to kills at high percents. And, if all else fails, Stripe’s neutral-special coupled with his Grudgeholder ability ensures that he can get a free follow-up after literally any melee attack.

Stripe perks

Perk Effect
Boom, Boom, Bounce! If your dynamite knocks you into terrain, cause another explosion when landing.
Feeding After Midnight Debuffs on Stripe last longer, but if he hits an enemy with the up special he cleanses all debuffs and applies them to the enemy.
He's The Leader When you leap from an ally's projectile, you leap much further and gain a speed buff.

Fitting his status as an Assassin, Stripe benefits from a line-up of three Offence perks.

Painted Target allows him to deal extra damage to enemies who are already in hitstun, while Shirt Cannon Sniper adds extra damage to his projectiles that hit far-away victims. Both of these perks synergize well with his Sharpshooter attack.

Finally, That’s Flammable, Doc! enables him to Ignite enemies after hitting them with a projectile, which he can do easily with his buzzsaw combo set-ups.
