Exusiai's Notes Okay, so here is the thing. Riptide does not demonstrate any of the other attributes of Superspeed. I know some write-ups have given him this power, but I just don't see it. His whole whirlwind ability seems very similar to how Red Tornado does his thing, so Air Control, with a 1 AP range works here.
