Introduction

Vega is a drag queen, but he gets made fun of by all the other queens because his idea of drag is just putting on a dorky mask.


This character's name is localized for the English release. For the purposes of this page, the names "Claw" and "Vega" are interchangeable.

Vega is an offensive powerhouse and a master-of-all with an appropriate tool for almost every situation. His special moves all fill a variety of uses in combos and anti-airs and offer great utility in neutral. His 236P special Madrid Claw allows him to pick up full combos from mid-range with his excellent normal pokes, and his 236K special Rolling Crystal Flash is an amazing tool in combo structure for easy damage. Vega's most defining trait is his oppressive offense, combining incredible damage with powerful resets and mixups to end the round in a matter of seconds. In combination with his dominating neutral presence, great normals, and one of the best ground dashes in the game, Vega is a menace to fight against on the ground.

Vega's air presence is arguably even more threatening, however, with some of the best air movement options in the game thanks to his command jump. Performed with any two punch buttons, Vega transfers his momentum into an aerial roll that he can perform a multitude of options out of, including crossups and an air throw. Vega can use this to easily clear right over any projectiles coming his way, as well as mix opponents up with its various options. In combination with his excellent meter build and usage of super, Vega is one of the most powerful and well-rounded characters in the entire game, with no specific detrimental weaknesses.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Amazing Damage: Vega's damage is some of the highest in the entire game, with very little execution required for great returns on investment. Additionally, while meter is helpful for his routes, none of his primary meterless routes require resources.
  • Fantastic Oki: Vega's mixup options are ludicrously good. Between his primary combo enders all causing hard knockdowns and his disgusting reset potential, Vega has all the tools you need to open your opponent up on a regular basis and force them to keep guessing for the round.
  • Movement: Vega has a multitude of extremely strong options for covering the screen space, including a forward dash that nearly goes fullscreen, an air-OK command jump, a walljump, and his iconic backflips. Vega can be threatening at nearly any range with these tools.
  • Great Reversals: Vega's options for escaping pressure are very useful, between his invincible 214KK Scarlet Terror and his 214PPP super, Splendid Claw. Both of these options work amazingly as anti-airs, adding to his ability to keep the opponent out.
  • Strong Normals: Vega's normals, on top of being incredibly large and advancing him forward, do a surprisingly high amount of damage on average for Remix standards. This increases the threat of approaching him on the ground, as any stray hit can lead into a deadly scenario.
  • Mask Off: If Vega sustains too many multi-hit moves, his claw and mask will fall off, reducing his range and making him take more damage in exchange for a damage boost of his own. This isn't really that bad, but it feels weird to leave this empty for now.
