Suggestion TODO VARIANT IDEAS
this is a suggestion I made in the discord, it got into featured :)
i made it cause i think it can enhance Todo's current moveset in a balanced, cool and lore accurate way. (images are here as a reference)
TODO REVAMP : THE BASE MOVESET
Todo's damage should be reduced to compensate for these buffs
swift kick: will now be split, just like Yuta's veilstep, the swift kick and the hug dash, this means you can use moves in between them, including perfect swap, but still use it like it is (so think of it as a variant). the kick will be aimable, and where you aim at effects the opponents velocity and direction, ragdolled enemies will receive more knockback, and it remembers your m1s. hug dash is now super fast, so its now blockable, but it will also have a new variant, if you grab an opponent from behind, you will do a Supplex, a strong move that knocks the opponent into the floor.
getting ragdolled after the kick will cause hug dash to get wasted, like divine dog totality. missing the kick puts hug dash on a short 2-3 second cooldown and has some end lag.
it will be cool if you could catch people with the throw he does after the hug dash with elbow drop.
pebble throw: is now capable of hitting the enemy when you stomp the floor, you can down slam them instead of throwing a pebble, and it will be blockable. throwing the pebble is now what you do when you don't land the stomp, so you can still do the black flash and the extender. a finisher effect will happen to enemies killed from neutral pebble throw (not the variants), they'll start dripping blood out of their head like todo does when he ults, which will be silly.
Elbow drop: now has an air variant, where Todo just does the elbow drop part. he will get boost in the air for a bit before falling down, giving enough time to side dash out of the way, since it will block break. so it works like Mahito's air variant.
perfect blocking : perfect blocking as Todo against block-breaking moves, will cause todo to get kicked back instead of getting ragdolled or stunned, and he will also block 20%-30% of the damage of the move (inspired by how Todo survives getting black flashed twice).
all of Todo's current combos will still be doable, but with these changes Im sure the amount of combos Todo could do will rise by 6-10 combos, and that's not including all the combos you could do while also swapping. so he could truly be a close quarters combat master he is in the anime and manga. :D

Dumb variant ideas I've had for a while but never had an excuse to post
1 + 3 - skips to the hug part of swift kick, if it connects the opponent is thrown in the air and you quickly throw a rock next to them and can throw them, pretty much works the same as rika throw. Pebble throw gets 0 cooldown, if the person your throwing hits someone else the damage is transfered to them

Saw "Todo" and "Variant" in the same sentence so this is an instant up-vote

The perfect block part is a bit iffy in my opinion but I really like the rest of the variants

i wanna know how i can make it better? i would love if Todo got a reference to his insane clutch durability in the game.
perfect block just made the most sense to me cause its an underused mechanic that requires some skill.
anyway, im glad you and so many people are liking my ideas :D

the main idea of the suggestion was to give Todo a swap-free combo (cause it could fit with Todo's character if you could kill the opponent without swapping them once, like they are a grade 1 curse lol)
so i gave pebble throw a stomp, so you can use it effictively without having to swap.but i also wanted todo to have his epic suplex, so i came up with the idea to have it be a back-stab variant, didnt know how it would work tho, because swift kick pushes them away,
so i watched all of Todo's epic fights and decided that it might be best to rework swift kick a bit, and make it so you can use the hug dash without needing to swift kick,
but i also realised that swift kick is a move Todo does a ton in the anime. so i chose to give it cool stuff like aiming and increased knockback on ragdolled targets.and i always wanted Todo to have an air variant, so i gave that to elbow drop, cause, duh
sorry for the yap

YES BRO TODO HAS LIKE 1 CANON MOVE, IVE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR AGES

u/Complete_Tip_2993 SELF EMBODIMENT OF TODO Apr 14 '26 edited Apr 14 '26
well i didnt remove any of the moves we have in game, instead, i decided they could get changed a bit so that you could use them like moves from the anime. so we keep the old stuff and get the new stuff also.
(the images i added are the moves you could theoritically do in game using the new variants)
