We'll learn about Squigly, a Skullgirls character with one of the most unusual sets of abilities. If you want to find out all there is to know about Squigly from Skullgirls, keep reading our in-depth guide.

Skullgirls Squigly Overview

Squigly is a mid-range damage dealer that makes use of various stances to amplify her damage. Even though she's nothing more than the vessel of Leviathan, if played right, she can deal high amounts of damage. She has a special attack that temporarily freezes the whole screen and pulls the enemy closer. Her skillset makes her one of the most unique characters in the game.

She is the type of character that you usually go for when you like to strategise about various playstyles and try to find the right moment to use every skill. Of course, that goes for many other characters, but Squigly is one that especially excels at this (finding openings and timing the skills perfectly).

Playstyle

Squigly is a character that operates in the middle of the battlefield and thrives with her excellent pokes. She and Leviathan like to maintain a safe distance from their foes while simultaneously dealing a decent amount of damage from a distance. Having said that, it is difficult for her to land ground attacks since they are sluggish to execute and noticeable to her opponents.

This makes it difficult for her to land these types of attacks since they are quite straightforward to avoid them. She can tackle this issue by cancelling her stances (which are used to amplify Leviathan's damage output or duration), to try to confuse her target. Her attacks when in the air have a small range, thus the timing of them has to be just perfect for them to be successful. It's important to point out that Squigly is very vulnerable when she does not have a charge.
