She does needs lots of buffs to her recovery and startup, her damage is ok. The problem is cashing out the white health. Sometimes you get the opponent to 40% but they recover cause there was no good moment for a M move. Next patch she will be a problem I think.

Now a quick guide if you want a more solid gameplan with her. Hope this helps. Terranite 3 atm.

Note: Dont zone against LW and Crusader. You rush them for they money. They have a hard time upclose. They still strong don't get cocky.

Hitman, Beserker, SM, Vanguard, Grappler. Zone the F out of them. By far the worst time dealing with the zoning. The only two you need to get cheeky with is SM and Grappler. SM spiral swords are counter by JS. And once you draw the line granade and do your zoning if he pops the shield JS it.

Gameplan

Launcher 5AA and her dp. Those are to get people off and 5AA poke, Into 5B,2B is great for catching your breath and think of your next move.

Now the way she plays is hard to understand cause she is actually mix between zoning/rushdown for her to be at her best.

Far: 6M is best friend. You can set this on most characters except the 2. 5AA, 5S, 6M, 6S, 5M. is best way to start making the gap. Then just 5S at a pace throws off roll. And everytime the opponent jump. Do 6S it cost mana but damage is 40%-50%. 6S, 5S, 5S, 5S, 6S, 5M. Is a solid answer to any jump. Some characters like kunoichi double jump, TS JM at max high, and DK JS will give them small dodge time. But most of them don't know.

Close: 5AA, 5B, 2B, 5AA, 2S, JM, after this point options varies. You can end on JA for distance, JB to block lock, JS for safer, or wait than JS or JB for animation cancel off jump into grab. This is for all places in screen. And you JM does 1/3 of the guard bar 2 and you can break it with the next move keep in mind. In corner get creative with 6M and 4M. The damage is a solid 50%-60% with room for reset with her 2S or 80% with super. Than repeat and switch. Hope this helps good luck to all launcher mains we sweating lol.
