[Xrd] Elphelt Gameplay Discussion "The True Best Girl"

Recommended Posts

Sorry if it might seem obvious to some people, but is Elphelt going to be available as DLC in North America as well? The fact that the game still doesn't have a solid release date for the West worries me, importing aside..

Yes. Whatever the release date may be, Elphelt DLC will be available for the US.

Not yet. Probably in about a week or so.

Already looked at it first hand @ gamestart asia. No videos sorry.

She kinda took a bullet between her boobs and shoot some love bullet @ the opponent and the opponent is lovestruck with "heart-shaped eyes" @ her :/

^^

 

  •  
  • Not sure if she can toss pineberry in the air. She can pull the pin in the air but it doesn't look like she can toss it while in the air. (yep she can)
  • Pineberry has a hit box until it lands on the ground but doesn't explode until the timer turns to 0. Should be really interesting how people utilize this move in set ups and neutral by 'cooking' the grenade.
  • Has a normal where she shoots a pistol. If you keep mashing on the button she continues to fire for up to 5 hits. It's special and super cancel-able on block/hit and looks like you can stagger the shots. The hitbox is a set distance away from Elphet so it'll whiff at close ranges and on crouching.
  • Forward throw causes a stagger state like Slayers command grab. Might have interesting follow ups if you can RC it. 
  • 2D xx 236236P does not trigger the full animation. It will trigger a full animation with them cakes if the first hit hit.
  • She can't jump while in Shotgun Stance if I heard the developers correctly during the walk through demo. 
  • Her Shotgun Stance actions can be used multiple times until you shoot, then it automatically takes her out of the stance. Automatically retrieve her shotgun after she uses hS 
  • Looks like you can chain her Shotgun Stance actions together
  • Her roll looks like it has strike invincibility on it and it will go through opponents so she can do left/right mix ups. Even avoids volcanic viper +_+
  • What I'm assuming is Kusuzu from shotgun stance causes a stagger on hit.  No clue what's kusuzu 
  • Looks like Shoot from Shotgun Stance is on button release not on button press. If you hold down HS she'll get into an aiming stance and on release will fire the Shotgun. On hit it'll cause a wall stick if you're close to the corner. The charged version might be a level 5 or 6 attack based on the sound effect of it on block so might be at massive frame advantage after wards.  Automatically charged if you stand idle for 1 second
  • Non-charged Shoot from Shotgun Stance causes a knockdown and you can combo off of it. Dunno :/ Am not a elphelt player 
  • Shove from Shotgun Stance causes a wall stick on hit if you're close to the corner.
  • Has a currently unlisted super where she fires a shot from her Rocket Launcher that hits 6 times and causes brief untechable time. Not sure if you can combo off of it without an RC or if you can YRC it. Use this super and YRC. Go shotgun stance and hit D = profit
  • Bridal Express causes a knockdown on hit and you can combo off of it. Seems like her Aerial bridal express is + on block (her 2p beats sol 2p after sol blocks) and ground bridal express is safe too. not sure if it's safe or not for the ground version. Sin player here :D

Oh yeah... it's 1 frame hS for the shotgun :/  and when she's in shotgun mode, D is unblockable so them strawberry nades r useful 

Her hS is somewhat a projectile pistol shot in front of her (can't hit low). Can be spammed

Looking forward about this character. Huge fan of gun characters in fighters (Sion, Eltnum, Sharon, Alessi, Hol Horse, Noel (pre BBCP))

A few Elphelt combos uploaded by 4gamer.

1st combo: 2P>cS>2D>214P
2nd: cS AA>jP>jS>jH>jD
3rd: 6P>632146H>jP>jS>jH>jD
4th: 5D>jD>djD>tjS>jP>jS>qjS>jP>jS>jH>jD

Looks like jD only knockdown if the opponent isn't too high. Seems also to have poor oki midscreen but good corner carry.

My random thoughts and tidbits based on her wiki page

 

  • c.S da bes
  • 6P doesn't have upper body invincibility but has reach. Think it says it causes stagger
  • Feel like they say something about the attack level of the grenade going up in relation to the time it's cooked but I can't make it out in google translate
  • Can blow up grenades with shots from the firearm and they'll do more damage?
  • Air Bridal Express can be good at baiting anti-airs
  • Ability to do perfect reloading for the rifle? Can't make out all the details in the google translate
  • Can't RC stances, except while shooting?
  • huh, Kusuzu is actually a throw and has some invincibility but it's slow. That's neat to know.
  • Air combos shown in the basic CMV were neat because they all end in Elphelt cooking a grenade to throw



I'll try and get her gatling chart on to the wiki tonight...Correction. I'll try and get it on the wiki when her frame data page exists to put it on, lol.

Yeah, 6P causes stagger.

 

The grenade's attack level rises when it starts shining, which is 1 second before it explodes. Note that it increases the attack level of the grenade itself, not the explosion. Thanks to that, you can actually connect the throw into the explosion thanks to the extra hit stun. And yeah, shooting it with firearms makes it deal slightly more damage.

 

Perfect reload requires you to press 6 and S in the 46S command at exactly the same time. If you do so, the reload takes a grand total of 2 (two) frames, allowing you to act much faster afterwards. Though because it's not instant, it might take some time getting used to, as you can't actually perform any other actions right away.

Shouldnt we mention that 6P is a overhead?  Its says that in the gamer wiki (when using translator, something something midlevel attack) and the #3 combo in their vid (why else would the dummy be placed on crouch)

 

 

And c.S is the AA to go to.
