My Mom Ranks Hades Characters

Pay attention to what colour the circles are and/or what effect Theseus' spin attack gains. Keep your distance from him and get a feel for the God circles first. There IS a pattern. Then wait for him to throw his spear. After he calls it back, go in and wail on him as he's repositioning. Watch out for his spin attack.
