Quick overview
| Follows reasonable sidestep rules, I.E. SSL for left side moves; |
| df1, df3(SWL). Exception is df2, seems easier to SSL. SSR for |
| jab (tracks SSL!), df4, b4, 4, db4. Both ways: 3, f3, 1+2, f1+2 |
| This works even at -5 (wr3,2), except jab tracks and need SWL. |
| Against BT (db3 oH, -4): SSR > BT2 / BT1. SWR > BT1+2. |
| SWL > BT3. BT3+4 stepped both ways, BT4 is homing. |
| Against LIB (+4, ff3+4/ws3): LIB is "homing", don't step. |
HEAT
| Heat powers: New move LIB d3+4, -9 mid launcher. |
| Parrying a low with LIB is now a launcher, and parrying a high is |
| a KND. Walking(not dash) forward, backward or sideways restores |
| heat. New transitions b2~f, b1,1,2~f, LIB1,2~f. Powers up the |
| transitions 3,2~f, f3+4 and ub,b,f (super dash). |
| Heat engagers: f4,4 | f1+2 | b3 | LIB2 | d1+3 (crouch throw) |
| Heat smash: i15 mid, high, mid, mid. Ends +6 in LIB. |

String handling
| 4,3(m,m -11) - 4,1(m,h -2bt) 5 frame fuzzy window | |
| f4,4 - f4,4~3 - f4,4~2: duck or walk left |
| df1,4,1 - df1,4,1~2 - df1,2~LIB: SSR block OS. Greedy: Walk the mid left / duck the high / punish the cancel (-17~-19) |
| 1,1 / 1,2: You can parry 1,1, but not 1,2. Still worth to try sometimes, since 1,1 is going to be spammed. |
| Her df1 has worse tracking on longer ranges, so if you block a tip range b3 (+4c) f.ex. you can SSL df1. Else sidewalk |
| db3,4. Not NH, but jails if low hits. |
| d1+2: Low attack throw (i25, reactable) that gets automatically punished if you block it in time. |
Other notes
| LIB: Auto parry highs and lows. Has full movement in this stance, including evasive forward and backward dashes. Cancel stance with |
| db (not instant). LIB PC has i8 activation. Huge sidesteps in BT, giant "backdash" with a i2-8 mid parry. Dancing restores heat. |
