Overview

Ranno is a swift, flexible combatant sporting a suite of excellent neutral tools and aerials, allowing him to play battles at his own pace until he finds an opening to dish out rapid, powerful strikes that will leave his opponents reeling.

Ranno has moves that inflict Poison Stacks on his opponents, forcing them to either play smart to expunge the poison by hitting Ranno or risk racking up damage by carelessly throwing out attacks. Ranno also has a Bubble he can summon to forcibly trap the opponent, giving him free reign to dole out punishment for longer and longer the more Poison Stacks they have.

However, mastery of Ranno does not come easily; while he has phenomenal ground speed and framedata, his air speed is the worst in the game. This means Ranno is reliant on HitfallingHitfall

Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. more than any other character since he needs to get back to the ground to close the distance during his strings. A Ranno player must be ready to use mechanics both system-wide and intrinsic to the character in order to navigate the airspace where he has access to his incredible aerial buttons. Reaching the peak of the mountain is not without reward, of course, as mastering Ranno's movement unlocks a force of nature on the battlefield who is difficult to contend with from any range or distance. Show them the way of the poisonous pacifist.

Summary

Ranno is a nimble warrior monk with powerful, precise strikes, who can control the pace of battle to put his opponents off-balance and open them up to a decisive killing blow.
Pros	Cons
Fast Buttons: His moves are crazy fast, especially his Tilts and his short hop hitfallHitfall A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. Aerials. Mobility: Ranno is one of the fastest characters on the ground with high-octane movement mixups in Tongue Sling. Combos and Confirms: Ranno's punish game is one of the most explosive in the game, netting high damage and kills. Edgeguarding: Aerial Darts plus long-lasting & potent Aerials make Ranno fearsome when guarding ledge. Bubble: A versatile tool for combos, recovery, edgeguarding, and saving Ranno from certain death. Out of Shield: His framedata translates to extremely fast and rewarding options out of shield to punish poor spacing. Tech Chasing: High ground speed, good framedata, and excellent Throws ensure Ranno can force techs and punish them.	Low Air Speed: Ranno has the lowest air speed in the game, demanding hitfallHitfall A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. Aerials and effective grounded movement to make the most of his kit. Getting Juggled: Ranno's low air speed makes him a sitting duck when being juggled, having to rely on air stalling with Down Special and edge cancelling with Up Special to get back to stage. Committal Recovery: Though Ranno can mixup his recovery, Up Special's high landing lag makes ledge hogging him a real threat, while interrupting Tongue Sling leaves him incredibly vulnerable offstage. Crouch Cancellable: Ranno’s moves are relatively weak on their own, meaning he's more susceptible to crouch cancelling than average. No Disjoints: A lack of disjointed attacks has him more liable to lose to disjointed attacks than to trade with them.

Poison Stacks

Ranno can apply up to four Poison Stacks to his opponents (shown as small green dots over a character's head) with his Neutral Special (a.k.a. Darts), Strongs, Up Special, Pummel Special, and Rapid Jab.

Toxic Trap

Ranno can create a Bubble to trap characters in. This can be created by the following:

• Landing a Forward Special on an opponent, trapping them automatically.
• Using Down Special if there are no bubbles on stage.
• Ledge Special. This will burst any empty bubble present.
• Getup Special. This will burst any empty bubble present.

Opponents that get knocked into a bubble will be trapped with no possible way to escape, and if they have poison stacks, the duration will be lengthened. Trapped opponents can manipulate their position by holding directions on the left stick. After bubble, opponents will fall out and be forced to tech if they land within 10 frames.

When attacks collide with the bubble, both the bubble and the attack will endure hitpause. After hitpause, the bubble will be knocked back as if it were a character, it will also cause projectiles to behave as if they had hit an opponent, such as self-destructing (ex: Loxodont's Meatball) or bouncing off (ex: Kragg's Rock).

If Ranno uses Darts on the bubble, it will cause them to bounce off at an angle, depending on where on the bubble it hit.

Bubbles last for 15 seconds900 frames., and they cannot be destroyed before then, unless Ranno uses Tongue on it, causing it to burst.

Superjump

Ranno has access to a unique superjump that can be performed by fullhopping while crouched. Aside from the extra speed and height, superjump functions identically to a normal jump and can be acted out of the same way.

A two-hit standing kick with solid horizontal range and niche uses.

At mid percents and above it can set up edgeguards near ledge - especially after a jab combo where Ranno's other Tilts wouldn't connect - and can even combo into his Aerials if the opponent DIs in.

The move also has a hitbox that hits slightly behind Ranno, allowing for situational option coverage.

However, the move doesn't net nearly as much reward as Up Tilt or Down Tilt, nor is it fast enough to be used in neutral, so it often takes a back seat to the rest of Ranno's kit.

A prime anti-air with a gigantic hitbox, as well as a combo starter and Jab string ender.

The move sends vertically at the start of the move before launching horizontally behind Ranno towards the end. The initial hit combos incredibly well into most of Ranno's kit, while the latter can be used as a DI mixup or to start techchases on platforms.

Ranno takes a step back during Up Tilt, aiding with spacing and making Jab strings safer on shield. This also conditions opponents to hold shield during Jab strings, giving Ranno more opportunities to open them up with Grab or delayed Jabs.

The backstep adds velocity that can effectively be negated or increased with momentum from techniques such as dashing, babydashing, WavedashWavedash

A low profiling sweep great for poking shield, starting combos, and kill confirms.

The tip of the sweep sends straight up, while the inner leg sends out with less hitstun.

The sweetspot is great for combos, such as confirming into Forward Air & Up Strong at kill percents or Grab & other Aerials at lower percents. The sourspot will mostly start techchases, though it can combo into DACUSDACUS
Dash Attack Cancel Up Smash/Strong; cancelling the startup of dash attack into an up smash/strong for more distance and momentum. and other options on DI in past mid percents.

A fast shoulder check that's good combo filler with a sweetspot on his shoulder and sourspots along Ranno's hips and the ground.

Dash Attack is a burst option that sends directly up, although its high endlag limits its use largely to combos, punishes, and callouts.

The sweetspot hitbox is great for hitting airborne enemies around shorthop height and tall grounded opponents.

Easily combos into airborne Darts and Aerials at mid percents, as well as at higher percents by superjumping.

An open palm strike serving as Ranno's strongest (and slowest) kill move.

Forward Strong launches forward at an angle, with a sweetspot centered on his palm. The move has too much endlag to safely throw out in neutral so it's best used for punishing the opponent, hard reads, and kill confirms.

When fully charged, Ranno throws a projectile in the shape of an open palm. While the projectile *can* be used for edgeguards, it's a trick that should only work once once the opponent is made aware of it.

A fast and powerful kill move with a sweetspot directly above Ranno's head and sourspots on either side of him.

Up Strong is an important kill option to have in any Ranno player's toolkit with many ways to chain into it at kill percents, such as Down Tilt, HitfallHitfall
A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. Weak Back Air, HitfallHitfall
A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. Hit 1 Up Air, Bubble, Down Throw, and more.

While the sweetspot is the preferred hitbox for KOs, Up Strong's sourspots are good for starting combos at low to mid percents.

Both of these strengths are amplified when Up Strong is performed as a DACUSDACUS
Dash Attack Cancel Up Smash/Strong; cancelling the startup of dash attack into an up smash/strong for more distance and momentum., enabling more kill confirms with the sweetspot and becoming an unreactable burst option for neutral and techchasing.

Ranno's fastest Strong, excellent for techchases, punishes, and DI mixups.

There's a large sweetspot on each foot, so aim for the edges of the move rather than Ranno's torso.

Ranno can capitalize off tech situations by spacing Down Strong to cover multiple options - especially near the ledge or on platforms - and letting it rip. Ranno can also fish for early stocks by mixing up when he goes for moves like Jab or Down Tilt with Down Strong to catch opponents DI'ing out into the blastzone.

Down Strong is also a solid choice when attempting to catch opponents recovering to ledge, as the hitbox goes low enough to hit some vulnerable recoveries.

One of Ranno's strongest non-Strong attacks, serving as damaging combo filler, shield pressure, and one of his main kill moves at high percents.

Forward Air has a few hitboxes: early sourspots at the top of the kick (one high priority, one low priority) that can combo, a sweetspot on his leg that kills and does heavy damage in combos, and a spike hitbox on the flash at the bottom of the kick.

The sweetspot's relatively high shieldstun and damage can make it good for pressuring shield either when spaced, crossed up, or hit low to the ground in order to Jab or dash away before the opponent can Grab.

The sweetspot sends at a low angle that's great for killing, the spike can either kill offstage or combo when grounded into a sweetspot Forward Air or an Up Strong, and the sourspot can combo into a double-jump sweetspot Forward Air at kill percents, making any hit a possible stock.

Can be confirmed into from almost all of Ranno's kit: Tilts, Dash Attack, Throws, Aerials, aerial Darts, Bubble, etc., so get creative!

Ranno's other strongest Aerial for killing. With a deceptive hitbox on both legs, Back Air excels at edgeguarding, spacing, and being incredible combo filler.

The move has a slightly disjointed sweetspot at the tip of his back foot that kills, with weaker sourspots elsewhere for combos.

The sweetspot is extremely hard to contest when spaced and very dangerous near the ledge, whether superjumping to contest high recoveries or dropping from ledge to catch low recoveries.

The sourspots are weaker hits than Ranno's other combo fillers, making them more effective at higher percents with hitfallHitfall
A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. since they won't launch as far so Ranno can still close the gap. This can even lead to his Strongs or a DACUSDACUS

The hitbox on Ranno's front leg also hits very low very fast, meaning rising Reverse Back Air can be better at hitting low to the ground opponents than rising Neutral Air and his other aerials.

A two-hit upward kick specialized for keeping opponents in the air and flashy combos/kill confirms.

The first kick sends a set distance that increases the lower on the leg it connects, while the second has a sweetspot at its foot and a sourspot along the rest of the leg.

At low-to-mid percents Up Air can combo into many of Ranno's other Aerials naturally -- being especially effective on fastfallers and bigger characters -- but where the move gets really interesting is with HitfallHitfall

A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. Hit 1 Up Air can combo into Ranno's Aerials as well as his Tilts and Up Strong at all percents due to having zero Knockback Growth.

Since Hit 1 of Up Air sends opponents higher the lower on the leg it connects, it's useful both for juggling opponents above Ranno as well as starting or extending combos on opponents low to the ground.

A series of three damaging pogo kicks with a big, active hitbox, Down Air is a potent pressure mixup for once Ranno has conditioned the opponent to shield.

Down Air functions as a single long-lasting kick below Ranno until the move hits a character or shield, at which point he'll perform the last two kicks in the chain. Ranno can hitfallHitfall
A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. all three kicks.

Ranno can act incredibly soon after the last kick, allowing him to either combo from Down Air or Down Air on shield to follow up with another Aerial before the opponent can punish him.

Because of this, the main mixup when landing Down Air on shield is between Ranno immediately doing Neutral/Forward/Back Air - beating an attempted punish - or delaying the Aerial/doing empty landempty land

However, Ranno is fully actionable after Down Air and can choose any option such as double-jumping, wavelanding, Up Air, or anything else, so keep getting creative!

The major downside of Down Air is that it's very slow to come out compared to the rest of Ranno's kit, and his poor air speed makes the move unwieldy to use in neutral. Ranno can mitigate this, however, by using Darts and Dart Cancel Aerials to condition the opponent to shield, even making it possible that the enemy drops shield during the pogo kicks if they were only expecting to block one attack.

Ranno's Darts are an extremely versatile move for controlling space, disrupting the opponent, edgeguarding, combos, and even movement. A lynchpin tool in his kit.

KB: while charging. When thrown, grounded Darts travel horizontally while the aerial version throws them down at a 45° angle.

Darts charge in levels, with each level adding another Dart to the throw (up to 4) in a widening upward arc while increasing the speed and distance they travel.

On their own Darts are an incredible neutral tool, allowing Ranno to stifle his opponent's movement safely while racking up damage and Poison Stacks to threaten a massive Bubble combo.

Though Darts really shine when used in midair, thanks to their steep throwing angle and near-nonexistent landing lag. Charging Darts threatens the ground in front of Ranno allowing him to aggressively mix up his movement by b-reversing and/or cancelling the charge to use his aerials or other movement options, and if his opponents don't respect the Darts then he can let them loose while fastfalling to start a combo.

This also makes aerial Darts incredible at edgeguarding, either by throwing them from onstage or by going offstage while throwing them to combo into Forward Air on hit.

• Applies 1 Poison Stacks per Dart.

An unusual yet powerful tool in Ranno's otherwise straightforward kit, Forward Special is a command grab and unconventional movement option specialized for hard callouts, big punishes, recovering, and ridiculous movement mixups.

Ranno extends his tongue over the duration of the move, trapping the first opponent hit in a Bubble he spits out with them. This makes Forward Special more threatening the more Poison Stacks the opponent has, but whiffing leaves him wide open for punishment.

If Ranno's tongue hits a surface or a Bubble he instead Slingshots himself to the point of impact, gaining speed the further he travels. Once Ranno reaches the end of his tongue he carries the momentum with him, being able to instantly use his other Specials as well as his Tilts, Jabs, Grab, and Strongs on the ground. After a short recovery he can then ShieldDefault Controls

GCN:
KB: , ParryDefault Controls
Xbox:
GCN: / +
KB: , dash, airdodge, and use Aerials as well. Additionally, Ranno gets his double jump back if his tongue connects with the ground or a platform.

During the Sling and its recovery Ranno is able to jump, expending his double-jump to launch himself through the air based on how fast he was going. Ranno can freely use Aerials and Specials during this time but is locked out from airdodging for a short period of time, leaving him vulnerable. This also means he can b-reverse Darts to reverse his momentum, which combined with charge cancelling enables some staggering movement possibilities.

One of Forward Special's most important uses is when recovering. Slinging to the wall helps Ranno open up his options with walljump, airdodge, or other options closer to the ledge, but the real power for recovering is found when using Down Special to set up a Bubble to Sling back to stage with at full speed. Slinging from the Bubble destroys it in the process, though he can deploy a new one using Down Special any time afterwards.

Additionally, Forward Special is great at covering tech options when the opponent's tech roll distance is limited - namely close to ledge - since grounded Tongue would be liable to cover all tech options if timed and spaced properly. This is situational based on position, however, and shouldn't be fished for without the right circumstance.

• When landed, consumes all Poison Stacks on trapped target.

This move sees Ranno launch himself upwards with a poison-infused strike, serving as a simple recovery tool.

Ranno can adjust the angle of the move along with the following momentum depending on how far forward the stick is held during startup, ranging from neutral on the stick to fully forward. Ranno enters freefall if he doesn't perform one of the followups.

Its short range can be exploited by characters with disjoints, so it may be necessary to get creative with options like walljump, airdodge, Forward Special, and Bubble to get back to ledge.

Ranno lunges downwards from the apex of the initial rising strike. The dive can be edge-cancelled, making it a powerful option for escaping juggle situations when mastered.

Though the dive itself can't be angled, it can still be aimed by angling the rising strike and timing the dive afterwards.

Ranno remains actionable after the dive, and can cancel it early with a double-jump or walljump as soon as frame 42 from the start of the dive.

Ranno spins into a poisonous vortex at the apex of the rising strike, suspended in mid-air while throwing Poison Darts ahead of and behind him.

There's a vortex hitbox directly on top of Ranno that sucks in opponents before launching them up at the end of the move, putting Ranno in freefall afterwards.

This is a cheeky way to tack on damage and poison stacks on unsuspecting foes, but it leaves Ranno very vulnerable if the opponent avoids the vortex or needles.

• Applies 1 Poison Stacks per dart.

Ranno summons a Bubble he can control, stalling him in midair.

Holding the button down or using Down Special while a Bubble is on screen allows Ranno to manually move the Bubble. If a character is knocked into the Bubble they become trapped for a period of time scaling with their number of Poison Stacks.

Bubble can be used in many ways defensively such as mixing up Ranno's fallspeed when being juggled, recovering with Forward Special, mixing up his movement with Down Air, placing it in neutral to block projectiles or zone people off, and setting Bubble in the path Ranno would be launched at kill percents to save him from being KO'd.

Bubble can also be used aggressively by setting it at ledge to trap vulnerable recoveries, bouncing Darts off it to send them in new directions, setting up for a high Poison Stack combo, trapping opponents fishing for crouch cancel, creating a surface for Forward Special to Sling onto to make it safer to go for on stage, hitfallingHitfall
A tech in which the attacker can buffer a fastfall during hitpause. Exclusive to Rivals of Aether and Rivals of Aether II. Ranno's Aerials off of it while making them more active during hitstop, and even more!

The only real limit is one's imagination.

• When landed, consumes all Poison Stacks on trapped target.

Ranno's Grab is a core part of his pressure and combo game, working nicely with the rest of his kit thanks to his exceptional Throws, vortex with Pummels and techchases, and his naturally good speed and framedata.

Since Ranno can disrupt his opponent's movement with Darts, he can then condition them to ShieldDefault Controls

GCN:
KB: using Aerials, Jab strings, Tilts, and aerial Darts. Once they have their guard up, he can then choose to lay on even more pressure or go for a punish using Grab or Forward Special, getting his highly damaging combos kicked off.

His high ground speed also makes reaction techchases that loop back into Grab possible from Back Throw and Down Throw, which he can continue so long as he keeps landing Pummels after the second Grab, seen here.

One of Ranno's main Throws for techchases and combos.

Forms a DI mixup with Down Throw, where DI away from Back Throw makes it easier to combo off Down Throw and vice versa.

Back Throw sends considerably further than Down Throw so it becomes less reliable at higher percents, though on DI in it can still combo into superjump Forward Air to kill.

Ranno's Ledge Special puts down a Bubble before dashing forward to knock opponents back into it.

While slow and punishable as a reversal, Ledge Special's slow startup and backwards knockback make it a great edgeguarding tool when threatening to grab ledge. This is because it can cover both recovering to ledge while also hitting recoveries onto stage.

• Intangible between frames 1-30.
• Ledge is no longer occupied starting on frame 31.
• When landed, consumes all Poison Stacks on trapped target.
• Existing unoccupied Bubbles will despawn.

Ranno's Getup Special deploys a Bubble that Ranno uses to propel himself into the air.

Getup Special is intangible for most of its startup, but its slow startup and lack of hitbox mean that it's better as a mixup than a default option. The vertical hurtbox shifting also makes the move well suited to escaping tech chases on platforms where the opponent is trying to shark through the platform.

• Intangible between frames 1-21.
• When landed, consumes all Poison Stacks on trapped target.
• Existing unoccupied Bubbles will despawn.
