Style:
Defensive
Difficulty:
Basic
Summary:
Excellent block and whiff punishment with Angel Step stabs, with lots of aGIs and tech crouching attacks to stifle enemy offense.
Description:
The loving holy warrior Sophitia brings outstanding block and whiff punishment to supplement a defensive-based gameplan. Her Angel Step and Twin Angel Step stances tech crouch and cover a lot of ground, allowing her to fly in and stab any whiffs, and stab punish any -14 and above unsafe moves whether standing or crouching. A large number of her attacks contain tech crouch frames or aGIs to allow her to get in through enemy attacks. When she makes her own moves she does have some good controlling pokes and guard pressure to dish out damage, but overall she heavily rewards strong fundamentals and centers around reactive play in lieu of offense or any tricky gimmicks.
Strengths:
- excellent punishment
- excellent tech crouch moves
- great at limiting enemy movement and applying guard pressure
Weaknesses:
- limited offense out of neutral
- high execution on optimized combos (iWR B+K, TAS B, etc.)
- lots of unsafe on block strings and attacks
Unique mechanic:
none
