Strengths Weaknesses
  • Best high/low mixups of game (her Strength Shot Type A which is Overhead, her Strength Shot Type C is low etc)
  • Extremely good air normals
  • Nice backdash (it helps her to fastly keep away the opponent)
  • One of best characters for zoning
  • Good damage overall
  • her cr.b can connect in combo after cancel roll forward
  • unbreakable throws, that is particularly valuable for her okizeme gameplay
  • Doesn't build meter fastly
  • rarely gets to stun the opponent

  • Only one dm (even if good dm)
  • Pretty hard to play comparing to most others characters

[Corner Combos]


  • j.C > cl.B x1-3 > cr.B > hcf+C / qcb,qcf+P

Whip Sideswitch setup cornered (if opponent doesn't tech roll)

In the first place, you must hop crossup with j.C and do this combo at 2p side close to 2p corner :

Close B x1-2 > cr.B > qcb,hcf+P

After doing this combo, you must do 6A and after hyper hop with j.C and redo the same combo :

Close B x1-2 > cr.B > qcb,hcf+P

Inifinite Combo Glitch with D Throw on tall characters

Tall characters can be grabbed out of an OTG attack (cr.A as it happens). The tall characters are very probably Maxima and Chang only
