Playstyle[edit]

An icon for denoting incomplete things.

Tarik is known to gimp his opponents using Greninja's Hydro Pump. He is willing to apply a campy playstyle and plays matchups such as Samus and Snake almost perfectly. Tarik also uses Greninja's dash attack in online play, which has led to him placing well at several online tournaments.
