Skill Explained

• Inning Eater: His signature beginner-friendly built-in Stamina. The “infinite” Staminamakes sure he’s always searching, and getting ahead. He stops less often for Stamina. Sometimes Water is enough. This compensates for his low ATK.

• Breaking Ball: This skill used to be only Change Up, and they added a few more options for William. Change Up alone wasn't that bad, it definitely punished opponent's that stayed on low Stamina. Now you do get increased firepower that William always lacked in the past. You do have the options to strategically consume your Stamina for different effects.

General Tips
