Beast gets to travel through the sewers for his mission (of course they would give the worst mission to the blue guy). Despite being disgusting, this mission isn't all that difficult.

Beast serves a pure melee attacker with some neat tricks. His primary ability is being able to cling to the ceiling; this can be useful in a fair number of situations (though most of them are in Beast specific stages). Outside that, Beast is just a solid one-on-one fighter. His most powerful attacks have decent range and knock the opponent down. However, a lot of his attacks take some time to recover from which makes him extremely vulnerable in situations with more than one opponent. Here's a list of his attacks:

Y: Punch Combo
Down + Y: Crouching Punch
Up + Y: Somersault Kick
Forward Forward + Y: Beast Charge
Jump, Up: Ceiling Cling
Jump, Down + Y: Beast Bounce

Beast's stage, as expected, has a lot of areas where he can cling to the ceilings. In most areas, this will be a clear advantage, but there are a few sections (notably the section where water continually pushes Beast back) where it might not be the best choice. The mini-boss is simple if you stay off of the ground, and the bosses shouldn't be a problem when using the Beast Bounce.

Fun, blast-filled, times with Cyclops next time. Enjoy the video!
