Handy Canon, or what was likely supposed to be Handy Cannon is a Ki Blast Super Attack used by Android 13.
In Game Data[]
- Description: Fire a barrage of Ki Blasts. This move can be cancelled with a step.
- Ki used: 100
- Obtained from: Parallel Quest 115 - "Extreme Battle with Android 13"
Properties[]
The user puts their right arm forward and fires a barrage of reddish pink blasts from their hand. The blasts quickly scatter around making them ineffective at dealing damage from longer distances or from knockbacks in general, but it's fast enough to be used in neutral and mid-range combos. As the description says, this move can be cancelled by a user with a step, usually allowing them to quickly move towards the hit opponent and start a basic combo before they can escape or block.
Usage Tips[]
This move is effective at approach as an alternative to ki blast stun, as well as a combo reset and damage dealing option up close. If used at a distance with opponent failing to avoid or block it, you can step cancel towards them and hit them with a light attack. When you've gotten them in a combo, before you juggle them, you can use it out of the regular attack hitstun to deal the move's full damage before going back and starting a new combo. Overall it is a very strong and valuable skill, especially for characters who struggle with approach and who have good Ki Blast damage.
