==Playstyle== | ==Playstyle== | ||
Tea is a Pac-Man player who excels at combo games and usage of various [[Bonus Fruit]] items. He prefers to use Galaxian in lower percentages and Bell in mid or high percentages, using them as a kill confirm in many situations. He is also well-known to set up a mind-game situation consisting of his usage of Bell, often inducing opponent's mistake and landing a Bell into his forward Smash. Off-stage, Tea utilizes Pac-Man's impressive recovery options to recover from unexpected places. Another hallmark of Tea's playstyle is that he often utilizes Fire Hydrant to block opponent's movements, charge Bonus Fruit and edgeguard opponents. | |||

However, Tea struggles when he deals with players with long-ranged attacks, due to the fact that he can't land his signature kill confirm with his Bell. This is evident in matches between {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Sparg0}}, {{Sm|ProtoBanham}} and {{Sm|KEN}} when the latter switched his character to {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}. | However, Tea struggles when he deals with players with long-ranged attacks, due to the fact that he can't land his signature kill confirm with his Bell.
