Russia

Russia (Russian: Россия/Rossiya) is the 6th Character in Head Soccer. He is rated 3 stars in Arcade. If you have any questions about the character Russia, please ask them here.

Playing style
Russia is a defensively playing CPU. His stats are a bit more than half of a 5 star character's stats.

Appearance
He has a large, bald head with a long, thin, curving black mustache and a large birthmark on his head. His eyes are squinted and he has an angry expression. He also has a big jaw and small ears.

Power Shot: Ice Shot
Russia's Power Shot is called "Ice Shot". A ball of ice is shot through the air towards the other player's goal. The ball doesn't travel completely horizontally but makes a little downward curve. If the opponent blocks the shot, he will be frozen in a block of ice for a short period of time, able to be kicked and dashed into the goal. This shot, however, is relatively easy to counter, just because it dips down after a certain distance allowing the player to counter it easier.

Costume
Russia doesn't wear a standard costume.

Unlock Requirements (Somewhat hard)
To unlock Russia and make him a playable character you must upgrade the Speed, Jump and Kick abilities at their superlative. Do the unlock requirements or pay 500,000 points to instantly unlock him. It will take 1,534,500 points to upgrade the speed, jump and kick to the max, but then, you don't need to upgrade half your stats anymore.

Tips and Tricks
The fastest way to earn enough points to upgrade your stats and unlock him is playing a lot of Head Cups. To be able to play with any character you want, just tap play with any character you have, then when it comes to the message, tap the costumes/upgrade button, go back, and you can use the arrow keys. Paying points for him isn't a smart thing to do, as you will still need to upgrade your stats to become better at the game. Use Mon-K, as the reward is doubled.
