Skarlet

MK9-Skarlet Face.jpg

Shao Khan trusts few, except the fighters of his own creation. Collecting the blood of countless warriors and infusing it with sorcery, he created the blood thirsty Skarlet. Gaining strength from the blood of her opponents, Shao Kahn only releases her as a last resort. Her new mission is to uncover Quan Chi's true intentions. If Skarlet discovers a plot to betray her creator, there will be hell to pay...

Kombo Attacks

Fp.png , Fp.png , Bp.png

Stagger string, use in mixups.


Special Attacks

Upslash

Launches opponent for juggle. Not safe on block. Can be used as anti-air if timed right.


Downslash

Ground bounces opponent for juggle. Its a overhead but not safe on block.


Daggers

Shoots 2 daggers. Not safe up close. They build a lot of super meter when blocked. The second toss can be delayed by holding down FP, to trick opponents. Air Daggers can be Instant aired, like Kitana or Mileena. Far Air Daggers is solid because of fast ground recovery and meter building. Use daggers only at midscreen. They are about as fast as Kano's knifes, which are fast themselves.

Enhanced ground daggers shoots 4 daggers at opponent. Enhanced Air does 3 daggers.


Blood Ball

The Blood Ball does 15% of damage and 6% of block damage, but Skarlet loses 7% of her life. Can guide it up or down.


Blood Drop

Mileena-like drop down attack. Very unsafe on block. Good for punishing spammers in projectile wars.


Red Dash

Think of this move like a mini Reptile Elbow Dash. It does not hit the opponent by itself but it has 3 followups that you can use. Using the move alone it lunges toward the opponent very fast. This is great to use in mixups because of the speed. You can even use it in combos. The 3 followups you can use after Dash is Upslash, Downslash, and Slide. Slide is a low sweep that is safe on block. You can perform Upslash by just pressing Forward + 2, remember it's not safe on block. Downslash can be performed by pressing Back + 2, again not safe on block but it is a overhead. So basically she has a High, Mid, and Low option after dashing.

The Enhanced Red Dash has armor. Great to punish pokers or to go through projectiles.


Enhanced Special Attacks

X-Ray Attack

A unique looking Xray because of the fact she low flips toward the opponent. Sadly it's a very low damaging Xray. It does only 29% damage. Although it is a Mid (overhead), probably not worth using.
