i agree

i definitely agree with this though.

i haven' fought against a decent V-13 yet myself so i have little experience but even so some matches are close with all that sword spamming. About the only downfall she has is low health.

That's true. Her swords are very easy to abuse. I've only fought one person online who used her and it was a good match and all but the last round I got caught up in the swords and that was pretty much it. I don't think she's overpowered though because she has really low health and she can't do much if you rush her down.

yeah the highest tier characters are arakune and rachel I believe..

I think rachel is super strong too.. but v-13 once you get the trick down isnt that bad.

You'd have to check over at dustloop

she can teleport away from you, and also her regular backdash is insanely good.

Her A/B moves are extremely short, and it's somewhat easy to punish C. There are tons of holes in her sword combos, and her drive attacks have bad recovery, so you can punish. I can probably help anyone that wants it against Nu.

Honestly, Arakune's zoning game is more frightening to me.

She can only teleport away if she hits with a move that allows her to.

But yeah, her backdash is fast. You can dash out in-between slower hits out of guard.

I might need help with that lol. for me its like she has a wall that i can barely break through. once the swords start a flying it game over man.

Arakune's is actually pretty simple. just stay on the ground cuz if you jump in the air, you're like paper floating in the wind. if you plays as him for a lil time you'll see what i mean. and its easy to beat him. i'll admit his curse combo is deadly, i got a 52 hit combo with it and a drive at the same time.

Yeah there are a lot of holes in her sword combos. Up close she has very few options to chose from. She's not completely helpless at close combat though, her options are just limited.

its been noted already but she's got such low health/defense that combos eat up her hp real quick, if you start getting sword raped the best thing to do is barrier it and get up close, she's got decent close range with her C's (especially CCCCCC + forward C, dash behind, back step out) but they're not too hard to get around and once you do she's ownable no doubt

.....
yeah she's my main

OP

Who is online
