Sadira PLACEHOLDER GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW

Character

Strengths

Weaknesses

Jumping Spider: Sadira can use her excellent jump arc and suite of anti-anti-airs to make anti-airing her a difficult task and turn matches kind of a mess with how much stress the task of anti-airing exherts on the mental stack of the opponent.
Widow's Edge: Sadira's face-to-foot style gameplan is supported by one of the better instinct's in the game. Web traps enable Sadira with safe and multi-layered mixups and advantage after Demon Blade and she get swaggy hard to break jump cancel combos and the very practical Auto Double jc Damage loop
Going Up: Sadira has a lot of launchers so at any point in her mixup she can go into her signature juggles to build PD or setup an oki situation
StLK jc Goated: StLK is a jump cancellable normal that gives access to tricky combos that are useful and hard to break
Hate to See Her Whiff, Love to See Her Recover: ASW Game Legend Lord Knight has 2 famous pieces of advice. "You should want to hug your main" and "Look at the entire screen". Sadira players seem to do well at the prior, at the expense of the later

Delicate on defense: Sadira has a pretty poor defensive toolkit. Her backdash is among the slowest in the game at 31 frames and she lacks a true reversal attack either spending a bar on shadow web cling, guessing with H Blade Demon/H recluse/Shadow Counter or booking up on Under Night Throw Tech Option Selects, blocking and praying
Anti-Anti Airs are risky: There is usually an answer to challenge every single anti-anti air move Sadira has. Sadira ability to mix up these options to make it confusing to guess the right answer,but when the defender is right, they can often bring the hurt to Sadira
What goes up,Must come down: Sadira reliance on juggles can sometimes be a hinderance since juggles build pd slower than grounded combos with auto doubles and getting combo broken causes a soft KD i.e. the risk becomes higher while the reward is lower than staying on the ground.
Instinct Reliant: Sadira Instinct being such a vital trump card means clever opponent will do their best to circumvent the impact of instinct. Aggressively fishing for counter breaks after winning round 1 with a sliver of health, desperation DP/SC/backdash to get out of blocking crazy mix, disengaging for as long as possible. Sadira not getting enough value from Instinct can put her on the back foot often
