Quick overview
| Versatile character, with mixed stance offense. |
| Weak to SSR. |
| After QCF1 oH: SWL beats every option except ws1+2 and |
| dash/delayed moves (ff2, BOK transition, ...) |
| You can reliably duck the last hit of her heat smash on whiff. |

String handling
| 3,2,3: -15 on hard cancel read. |
| b1,4: You can still SSL second hit. She has b1,1+2 which tracks, but -12 oB, or i17 interrupt (before PC) on BOK read. |
| b4,1: -16 on hard cancel read. Worth challenging, Leo likes to fish with this. New extension b4, 1~4 also has 17f gap. b4 is -8 alone. |
| uf1,1_2: Both version can be SSR'd if any delay. Otherwise, tracks, and uf1,1 safe mid. |
| uf2,1: SSR second hit. SWR not a bad idea either against BOK transition (duck the homing). You can i11 float, but she might high evade. |
| ff4,3,4: First two hits jail, always try to punish (unless read on low). ff4 Alone is -13 and launches (so they often do only ff4) |
| 10-hit 1: Low at #6. 10-hit 2: Low at #8. Both 10-hits are always h,h,h,m,h. |
| ws3,1,2: Dickjab OS (need cs4) if yours hits. Otherwise, it's a 3-way mixup (duck, punish -10, check BOK (i16, but loses to PC)) |
| KNK3,4: Jails, just spam i12 punish after first hit. |
| ff3~d: If you have a ws4 with fast recovery, you can ws4 and still block BOK1+2 (the PC). |
Duckable highs
| 1,2,1 | 1,2,1,4(mix, 3f fuzzy, mid first) | 3,2 | df1,2 | d4,2 | db2,4 | db3(i31 on reaction) | |
