Introduction
Amy is a character with fast pokes, solid stance mixup options and excellent potential to steamroll the opponent with her pressure. Featuring a unique system where she must hit rose projectiles to unlock or upgrade moves, she naturally grows stronger over the course of a match.

Unique Mechanic
Rose Perception
Some of Amy's moves involve her throwing roses, either red or white. Each rose that hits builds a point, and once she reaches four points of a color, she receives permanent upgrades based on that color of rose.
Red Rose Perception (RRP) improves her offensive capabilities by granting her new combo tools, improved strings, and a buff to her command dash stance. RRP is widely considered easier to obtain and stronger than White Rose Perception (WRP). You will often see Amy's go only for RRP and ignoring WRP altogether.
White Rose Perception (WRP) increases the effectiveness of her parries by increasing the speed and length of the active parry window as well as providing additional one-time LHs on select parry stance attacks. A few new attacks and strings are unlocked. WRP also increases the damage of her i12 Critical Edge.
Once both RRP and WRP are filled, she enters Purple Rose Perception (PRP), Amy obtains the powers of both upgrades. PRP has the added benefit of turning her aGI stances into Resist Impacts and further empowers her Critical Edge, causing it to refund some meter on hit while dealing more damage than empowered RRP CE and retaining the speed of her i12 CE.

Amy had always accepted as truth the idea that despair comes from having hope, but if the time ever came in which she needed to embark in search of a light within the darkness, she now had her own symbol of hope: Albion, the sword from her father and mentor. |
