Jason Moveset and Abilities

Ground Attacks

Command	Move	Description	How to Use
Neutral (Neutral + Attack)	Axe Slam	Effect: ChargeCharge an axe attack while slowly moving forward.	A slow overhead slash that can deal massive damage. Use this to catch enemies from above or in front of you.
Side (Side (Hold) + Attack)	Freight Train	Jason runs forward, shoulder tackling anyone in his way.	Use this to charge at enemies who are keeping their distance from you. It won't be as fast as the Mist Step, but it can deal some chip damage if you manage to land the tackle.
Side (Side + Attack)	Fear the 13th	A 3-hit Combo that ends with a Grab and tosses the opponent away.	A powerful 2-hit slash followed by a throw that can push enemies off the edge. You can spam this move when edge-guarding to prevent enemies from recovering.
Up (Up + Attack)	Crunch Time	Effect: ChargeCharge a gruesome attack that mimics the fatal folding of a bed, launching your enemy skyward with a force that breaks both body and spirit.	Use this to finish off enemies that are trying to recover. Although this move is extremely slow, it can be useful in certain situations to knock out enemies.
Down (Down + Attack)	Zombie Stomp or Z Stomp?	Effect: ChargeChannel the Charge of the undead into a ground-shaking stomp that propels enemies skyward.	Use this move as a launcher for your horizontal combos. Similar to the Axe Slam, it can also catch enemies from above and in front of you.
Neutral (Neutral + Special)	Unsptoppable Rage	Jason channels his rage, trading self-inflicted damage for Gray Health. Allies also receive a small amount of Gray Health. While enraged, he is faster and his next attack deals more Damage and Knockback. This condition ends when his Gray Health is depleted or when he uses an attack.	You can use this to buff yourself, making your next attack more powerful and giving you additional movement speed to catch up to enemies.
Side (Side + Special)	Mist Step	Jason steps into the mist and teleports forward. Any opponent near Jason as he behins his Mist Step will be struck back with great force.	Use this as your main gap closer when enemies are trying to keep their distance. It allows you to instantly get close while being invulnerable to attacks.
Up (Up + Special)	No Escape	An upward hatchet swipe that catches its victim and then slams them into the ground.	No Escape is your fastest move, allowing you to catch enemies that are rushing towards you or enemies that are trying to get away. It can be used both offensively and defensively due to its speed.
Down (Down + Special)	Sweet Dreams	Effect: ProjectileJason stuffs his victim into a sleeping bag, functioning as a Grab. He can walk and input an attack to slam them into the ground or other enemies. Inputting a special will throw the bag as a Projectile with the victim trapped inside.	Sweet Dreams is your grab ability that allows you to trap enemies and carry them towards the edge. Make sure to throw the enemy away or slam them into the ground before they can break free.

Aerial Attacks

Command	Move	Description	How to Use
Neutral (Neutral + Attack)	Scoop and Slice	A sweeping hatchet swing that arcs through the air with deadly precision.	Use this launching attack to force enemies away from you. In one-on-one situations, it's not ideal to use this move as it pushes the enemy away. However, if you're playing with a team, you can use it to push enemies toward your allies.
Side (Side + Attack)	Cut Them Down	A wide-reaching machete swing from the air which knocks back the opponent with great force.	You can use this slashing attack to finish off your combo. While it may seem underwhelming, it deals massive damage if you manage to land it.
Up (Up + Attack)	From Below	Two swift, upward strikes of his machete. This aerial assault is a deadly dance of blades that spells doom for those caught unaware.	Use this upward stab attack to launch enemies from below when they are standing on a platform above you.
Down (Down + Attack)	6 Feet Under or Go to Hell	Plunge downward with a fist, executing a powerful air swing that spikes opponents to their doom.	A powerful downward punch that allows you to juggle enemies. Use this as an opener to perform mid-air combos.
Neutral (Neutral + Special)	The Slasher	Jason grabs his opponent before stabbing them twice, then slashing.	You can use this to grab enemies mid-air, allowing you to finish them off with a powerful throw.
Side (Side + Special)	Air Mist Step	Jason steps into the mist and teleports forward. He can slightly angle his teleport upwards or downwards.	Similar to the ground version of Mist Step, you can use this to close the gap on enemies.
Up (Up + Special)	Risen Strike	A rising cleaver strke that knocks the opponent upwards.	Use this as a finisher on enemies above you to send them flying out of bounds.
Down (Down + Special)	Down and Out	Jason slashes his cleaver down and forward. If he lands while using this attack, he does an additional slash.	This move is an excellent opener for your horizontal combos as it can deal a ton of damage while keeping enemies in front of you.

Passive Abilities

Passive	Effect
Relentless	Jason cannot take knockback while he has Gray Health.

Jason Best Perks

Perk	Explanation
Monstrous Sidestep	One of the best perks for Jason, helping him get close to the nearest enemy. This allows you to constantly pressure the enemy and avoid long-range fights.
Protective Momentum	Provides a one-time shield that can deflect any incoming projectiles after running in the same direction. Excellent for pushing Mage/ranged enemies.
2 Fast 2 Block	Since most of your attacks can deal massive damage, it is best to pair them with an armor break to further enhance your damage output when performing combos.
Pugilist	The Pugilist perk can further enhance the damage output of your melee attacks. Since Jason's attacks are mostly melee, you will consistently benefit from this perk.

How to Use Jason

Play Aggressively and Pressure Your Enemy

As a Tank, Jason can be quite difficult to knock out. Classes like Tanks and Bruisers might struggle to knock you out even at high percentages. You can use this to your advantage to play aggressively and constantly pressure your enemy, forcing them to make mistakes.

Keep Enemies Close

Most of your attacks are powerful swings that can deal massive damage and cover a large area, but they can be difficult to land due to their short range. Keep pressing forward to keep enemies on their toes and look for opportunities to deal damage with your powerful attacks.
