The ElecMan chip series are Screen-dimming Mega chips that summon ElecMan to summon two thunder strikes hitting nearby enemies and objects, dealing Element 6 Elec.png Elec element Flinching damage.

  • Chip Icon 6 Mega 010 Gregar.png ElecMan deals 120 damage.
  • Chip Icon 6 Mega 011 Gregar.png ElecManEX deals 140 damage.
  • Chip Icon 6 Mega 012 Gregar.png ElecManSP deals 160-210 damage, depending on the player’s ElecMan SP fight busting record.

ElecMan can be used on broken/hole panels.

Second strike paralyzes the enemy for 120 frames. If the enemy is hit by both strikes, they will both be Paralyzed and Flashing when screen dimming ends.

Frame Data

Within 2 panel radius of the user:

  • First strike hits only enemies.
  • Second strike hits objects that can be damaged by both players. A list of such objects can be found here (under 'Hittable' column)

Second strike will also hit enemies within 1 panel radius of struck objects. Second strike can hit the enemy multiple times in the same frame, if they are within 1 panel radius of multiple struck objects.

First strike's hitbox is noted by 1. Second strike's hitbox is noted by 2 and higher. Hit count per panel is the number of indices in each panel, given how objects are set up.

Competitive Overview

The ElecMan chip series's short range and low damage often makes using them sub-optimal without any setup. As a result, they tend to be used with objects to deal the most damage possible with the second strike.

Synergies

Common objects seen used with ElecMan:

  • ElecMan can add damage to the Little Boiler chip series. Conveniently, the steam explosion's radius is also 1 panel. If the enemy is paralyzed by being near the Little Boiler, the user may need to take the enemy out of flashing for the steam explosion to connect (e.g. with Chip Icon 6 Standard 192.png WhiCapsl on ElecMan or the Gun del Sol chip series).
  • Chip Icon 6 Standard 153.png VDoll deals Invis-piercing damage right after it has been struck by ElecMan.
  • Players may also take advantage of objects that spawn on the starting field.

Moves that pull the enemy closer (e.g. Tengu Cross's B+Left ability, Chip Icon 6 Standard 135.png Fan) can help set up ElecMan.

Getting hit multiple times by the second strike makes it possible for ElecMan versions with less than 200 damage to break Chip Icon 6 Standard 184.png LifeAur. Chip Icon 6 Mega 012 Gregar.png ElecManSP at 200 or more damage can break Chip Icon 6 Standard 184.png LifeAur on Holy Panel if the enemy is caught near 2 hittable objects.

Counterplay

If the enemy suspects ElecMan, the enemy can stay as far away from the user as possible, or star away from hittable objects to avoid the paralysis.

Dust Cross's B+Left ability can make setting up objects for ElecMan difficult. However, there is a short cooldown between each use of this ability.
