• Hypnotic Stare

[edit] Equippable Items

[edit] Vampire Items

• Blood Vial When Cornelius is switched out at an appropriate moment, he may benefit from Blood Vial and regenerate quickly.

• Gem of Souls Cornelius can easily kill many cards with Pilebunker. A matter of taste.

• Ring of Curses As Cornelius is not brought down easily, he may benefit from this item as well.

• Necronomic Tome All of his attacks are dark/physical, making Necronomic a great card to keep Cornelius in the game longer (and perhaps finish off just about everything with Pilebunker).

• Phylactery It may provide you with one more chance to Pilebunker, or Voidstream. A matter of taste.

[edit] General Items

• General's Insignia: Not as effective as on other characters because it only affects Pilebunker, which has a chance to do extra damage anyway.

• Girdle of Iron Will: Useful for Pilebunker.

• Healing Salve

• Stoneheel Totem: Due to the versatility of Voidstream, switching ranges with this item can frustrate one-rangers.

• Yellow Rock of Cowards: Use if it suits your playstyle.

• Mindreader's Chalice: People may switch to avoid Pilebunker. Use if it suits your style.

[edit] Strategy

[edit] General Use

Cornelius is a very strong character in general. He can reflect any slow enemy's attack by using Hypnotic Stare. Pilebunker is intimidating at close range. Voidstream is an always-available, 100% hit move which is effective against most other characters (except Vampires).

[edit] Strengths

• Has a powerful move - Pilebunker, which can deal up to 70 damage and can be done after a range change.

• Voidstream (Cornelius Constantine) is an easy-spammable move, consecutive Voidtreams deal more damage.

• Is effective against most characters and has no hard counters.

• Can reflect attacks.

[edit] Weaknesses

• Low light-defense.

• His attacks are relatively slow.

[edit] Known bugs

None
