Description
Victory theme is Fulgore's theme from Killer Instinct 2013

Goliath, the war machine, has arrived to test his weapons in rivals of aether. Goliath is an exceptionally powerful zoner who can use a number of versatile projectiles to annihilate his opponents.

SPECIALS:
--------------------------------------------------------


Nspecial: Weapons system
-------------------------------------------------------
The weapons system is Goliath's signature move, as it's 5 moves in 1! upon activation, Goliath will use one of 5 random weapons

Weapon 1: Machine gun
--------------------------------------------------------



Machine gun fires a steady stream of bullets straight ahead, sending opponents backwards. useful for racking damage and edgeguarding opponents.

Weapon 2: Sniper rifle
--------------------------------------------------------



Sniper rifle has Goliath enter a crouching position and take aim straight ahead. When the special button is pressed again, Goliath will fire his shot. The sniper rifle does not actually fire a projectile, but rather creates a single long and narrow hitbox that covers the whole stage in front of him.

Weapon 3: Laser canon
--------------------------------------------------------



The laser canon is a strong horizontal projectile with high hitstun. Goliath can once again control when he fires the projectile by pressing the special button again.

Weapon 4: Missile barrage
--------------------------------------------------------



Missile barrage fires a series of 12 rockets, all travelling with random trajectories. Goliath can aim left and right while this attack is active

Weapon 5: Self destruct
--------------------------------------------------------



Self destruct is the strongest of the weapons system, but also the most rare and unreliable. with a 5% chance of happening, self destruct freezes Goliath in place for a few seconds. During this time, Goliath has armor preventing all knockback. The explosion deals massive damage and knockback, but also deals 15% to Goliath.

Fspecial: Rocket fist
--------------------------------------------------------



Rocket fist is a chargeable, horizontally travelling projectile. The longer it charges, the more damage, knockback, and speed it will gain. Goliath can also aim the fist left or right.

Dspecial: Discharge/Thunder Dive
--------------------------------------------------------



On the ground, Goliath will perform Discharge, a ground slam that stuns opponents in place if hit. this allows Goliath to perform any follow up you wish. In the air, Dspecial becomes Thunder Dive, a powerful downward lunge with high knockback. But be careful, if Goliath misses the ground, he will plummet to his death. Both of these attacks have soft armor.

Uspecial: Thrusters
--------------------------------------------------------



Upon activation, Goliath will gain access to completely free flight; allowing him to move freely through the air and perform most aerials and specials while moving freely. Thrusters can only be activated once goliath's fuel gauge (to the left of the HUD) is green. If it is red, he cannot use it. Certain actions will cause Goliath to stop flying and lose all his fuel: Uair, Dspecial (in the air), Airdodging, and Jumping.

Dstrong: Power drill
--------------------------------------------------------



Power drill is Goliath's unorthodox Dstrong. Unlike his other strong attacks, Goliath will not fire the projectile when the strong button is released, rather, the drill will continue spinning until either the attack button is pressed or it is fired automatically after several seconds.

Oof nvm, he was never updated since when he was released, hopefully someone does a balanced version of him. :(

i LOVE this dude, but he seems to be broken lol, like someone else said, he's a heavyweight with a great recovery and his mobility is pretty damn good too, he needs some nerfs to be balanced probably, I only tested him a bit in training mode tho so take it with a grain of salt, but judging by some of the other comments, my first impressions seem to be spot on.

the imbalance of this is disgusting online they spam you the same attacks and they do not let you recover in any way:steamfacepalm:

Great character though a few things I'd like to mention. First off giving a heavy weight a good recovery makes it really hard to kill it. Maybe make the fuel drain a bit faster so the recovery can't be used as often.

Also the rocket barrage has a really weird hitbox. The rockets seem to hit enemies above them even if they don't touch the rockets at all which I find strange.

does he have a final smash?

LOVE this character! A suggestion though, he's air speed when using his recovery seems to crash the game maybe? Any chance you could slow it down, or look into it?
