UNKNOWN (EFZ): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 06:38, 4 December 2007

Introduction

UNKNOWN is a small agile character, and uses various toys and her ghostly abilities to fight. She can control space well with her multiple ranged attacks, and has the ability to completely control her flight in midair. Her projectiles are large and linger on the screen for a substantial amount of time, so they can be used for offense or defense. However, she has a harder time dealing damage than many of the other characters.

UNKNOWN is actually a character from ONE, a visual novel produced by Tactics in 1998. Her resemblence to a younger Mizuka is positively uncanny. During ONE, she gets to meet Kouhei again in the world of eternity...

She is also known as "Mirror Mizuka".

Stage: World of Eternity (永遠の世界)

BGM: Eternity (永遠)

Character-Specific Notes

UNKNOWN is able to air jump once, and air dash/backstep once.
UNKNOWN's ground dash has some unique properties. First, her dash ignores the opponent's body completely, allowing her to dash through the opponent as if she was not there. Secondly, UNKNOWN disappears soon after her dash starts, and reappears as soon as her dash stops. While she is invisible, she cannot be hit by any attacks.
Her "Outside the Window" specials (excluding the C version) can be thrown out at long range by inputting the command a second time.

Weak Attacks

5A

UNKNOWN throws a thin, linear whisp in front of her.
The hitbox is slightly shorter than the whisp would have you believe. This move will lead into her b&b combo, so be prepared to use it a lot at close range.

2A

UNKNOWN leans back and throws a thin whisp at the opponent's ankles.
Basically used the same way as the standing version, with the obvious exception that this hits low.

j.A

A jumping variant of the thin whisp. This attack has more range than the ground and standing versions, and the hitbox extends below her a little.
Natural combo starter in the air, good for keeping people out of your face too.

66A

The same as 5A
There's really no reason to use this move unless the opponent is preparing an attack and there's no time to hit with 66B or 66C. From a run, it's better to try to juggle with the 66B instead.

Strategy, Tactics, and Combos

Combos

A basic "bread and butter" combo for UNKNOWN would be 5A 5BB 5C 214A. That last move has some strict timing, so practice.

66B j.B airdash j.B6C land j.ABC 5AB j.AB j.AB6C airdash (tech punish)

236C j.B airdash j.AB land 5(A)B j.AB j.AB6C airdash (tech punish)

Red IC: 5A 5BB 5C 214A IC j.B airdash j.AB land 5(A)B j.AB j.AB6C airdash (tech punish)

Crossing up in the World of Eternity

The j.C move is an excellent cross-up.
