Strengths

• Mixups: Immediately threatening with just basic knowledge of stances, with pressure and 50/50's built in, and a variety of options to navigate between them as you improve.
• Evasiveness: Eddy is constantly moving, always shifting his hitboxes, and finding oppressive timings and angles to approach. RLX and sidestep HSP entry can handle with ease many situations that might blow up other characters.
• As Complicated as You Want: With deadly mixups, easy transitions, and long-range punishes, Eddy has a lot to offer, but the learning curve starts firmly at zero.

Weaknesses

• Confusing: Not just to your opponent, but to you. Though it seems easy to mash buttons on him at first, a lot of awareness is required to get the most out of Eddy. You may find situations that other characters with simpler pickups chew through, and you'll struggle due to some of Eddy's combos being highly specific. Being comfortable navigating stances and situations quickly and knowing the best options as part of the flow of your offense can also be a challenge.
• Knowledge is Power: Many of Eddy's strengths lie in the opponent not knowing how to deal with his many sequences. Against an opponent who knows the matchup, the character is notably weaker and can only rely on what few opportunities he may get for guaranteed mix.
