Moves List
Normal Moves
Morrigan's normals can all cancel into a full magic series. Of special note are her j.lp, which is generally her best rushdown tool, and c.db+hp, which is her only ground-based heavy normal that's safe on block by itself, and has good range, startup, and recovery to boot.

Command Normals
s.f+hk: A multi-hitting flip-kick. This move is COMPLETELY USELESS. It has the longest startup of all her normals, it looks like it hits high but it DOESN'T, and it has terrible range. It's not cancelable into specials or supers either. Avoid at all costs.
c.db+hp: One of Morrigan's best all-around normals. Good horizontal range, good startup, good priority, and excellent recovery. This is her ONLY ground-based heavy normal that's safe on block by itself. It also combos fairly easily into silhouette blade.
c.df+hp: Morrigan's launcher. Decent range, average priority. NOT SAFE ON BLOCK unless you cancel into something or have an assist covering you.
j.d+hk: Her Shell Pierce. Travels straight down. Without unfly mode, it recovers in normal jump mode with the action used up. If you have unfly mode, it recovers in normal jump mode with an action avaiable. EXCELLENT RECOVERY if you have unfly. In fact, it recovers early enough to be linked into another combo if you're quick. If you don't have unfly, you can still make the recovery safe(r) by canceling it into qcb+k before you bounce away from the opponent, or into qcf+p after you bounce away.
Special Moves
Morrigan has a shoto-like collection of special moves. Each is useful in its way.













Snapback: qcf + A1 or A2
4 frame startup. Tied with several characters as having the 3rd fastest snapback in the game. Decent horizontal range, iffy vertical range, hits OTG. Recovers quickly enough to punish an assist with a double-snap followed by relaunch to death, but the timing is difficult.
Tag in: lp+lk or hp+hk
16 frame startup. Tied with several characters as having the 2nd fastest tag in in the game. Unfortunately, the range isn't too great.
Super Moves
