==Overview==
Mu-12 is the true form of Noel Vermillion after fusing with the True Azure through Terumi's ambitions to destroy the Master Unit Amaterasu, and erase the world from its existence. Due to his influence, she believes that the world is filled with nothing but lies. Mu-12 is a dynamic zoning character with high damage output and capable defensive tools.

{{card|width=4
|header=Overview
|content=Mu-12 (stylized as μ-No.12-) is a '''well-rounded character''' with fast movement, high damage, powerful vortex and low risk zoning.
 
Mu-12 has dominant neutral, able to out zone most characters with {{clr|B|2B}}, {{clr|C|5C}}, {{clr|C|j.C}}, {{clr|C|j.2C}} and her fast movement. In addition to this, her [[#Drive: Steins Gunner|Steins]] ({{clr|D|xD}}) are a low risk way to create threats for the opponent, either by waiting for the stein to fire or by using her powerful stein specials.
 
Mu-12 also has an extremely oppressive knockdown situation. [[#Drive: Steins Gunner|Steins]] can be used to {{Keyword|meaty}} the opponent while punishing all [[BBCF/Mechanics#Ground Rolling|rolls]] and avoiding reversals, extend pressure, or enforce mixup. Combined with her high damage, Mu can three touch the vast majority of the cast. Her mixup is also fairly strong, as she has multiple ways to set up {{keyword|50/50}} situations, such as blockstrings into delayed airdash {{clr|B|j.B}} vs empty low {{clr|B|2B}}, or {{clr|B|6B1}} Rapid Cancel {{clr|B|2B}}.
 
While Mu has areas she does not excel at, such as her pressure and defensive tools, she's not bad at them. {{clr|B|2B}} is a +0 on block normal with extremely low recovery, allowing her to apply a basic stagger pressure gameplan. While her defensive options have flaws such as low range, she still has access to {{clr|C|623C}}, which is a meterless {{keyword|True Reversal}}.

|header=Drive: Steins Gunner
|content=
Steins Gunner projects a small turret to the targeted location. Steins have a long charge up before they fire, and will not fire or remain active if Mu is hit or blocks an attack. Steins are created aiming at the opponent, and very slightly track before firing.


===Drive: Steins Gunner===
Steins can also be charged by holding down the Drive button. Charged Steins take longer to fire, but have much more powerful beams and track the opponent significantly more effectively before firing.  
Steins Gunner projects an energy node (Stein) to the targeted location. Steins have a "heating" period before they fire, and will cease heating if µ receives damage or blocks. However, once the stein has finished heating up, it will fire and cause most attacks to trade/lose. Steins can also be Charged by holding down the Drive button while projecting the Stein. Charged Steins take longer to heat up, but have much more powerful beams. Steins are also used for two of µ's special attacks and one of her supers; Totsuka, Kuninotokotachi and Yata no Kagami which will be detailed later.


An important note is that all Stein actions are cancel-able into Specials, Drives and Jumps and C-Class Normals on whiff. Mastering whiff-cancel timings and varying your options is very critical to succeeding with the character overall.
Up to four Steins can be on the stage at a time; if Mu tries to set a fifth Stein, it will replace the oldest one, regardless of if the stein has fired yet. Steins are also used for two of Mu's special attacks and one of her supers; [[#Totsuka Blade|Totsuka Blade]], [[#Tokotachi Blade|Tokotachi Blade]], and [[#Blessed Mirror|Blessed Mirror]].


===Overdrive: Steins Geiser===
All Stein summons are cancellable into Specials, {{clr|D|Drives}}, Jumps, {{clr|C|C}} Normals, and {{clr|B|6B}} on whiff. Stein whiff cancels are required for all but the most basic of Mu combos, and also allow Steins to be used as a low risk neutral option. A maximum of two steins can be performed per string.
*All steins shoot charged lasers.
*All steins shoot immediately as soon as they finish "spawning".
*Steins will shoot so long as Mu is not in hitstun or blockstun at the time the stein attempts to shoot, regardless of if she blocked or was hit by something between that time.
*236D deals more damage and has much less recovery.
*214D has an extra hitstun effect and does more damage.
*632146D fires one extra laser directly at the opponent per stein on screen and the first direct shot is fired much sooner.
*632146C increased damage.


===Strengths/Weaknesses===
Each stein is numbered by the order they were placed in, starting at one for new steins and ending at four. This is used to indicate the order for Totsuka Blade.
{|
|header2=Overdrive: Steins Geiser
|-style="text-align:left;"

! Strengths !! Weaknesses
New Steins always fire charged lasers. Steins fire extremely quickly. Steins will fire even if Mu is hit or blocks, so long as she is not in hitstun or blockstun when they attempt to fire. Steins Geiser does not change Steins that have already been set. Additionally, all of Mu's Drive related attacks become much stronger. See each move's section for details.

*Can be difficult to play well to her full potential without knowledge of drive timings for improvised pressure and combos.
*None of her normals provide frame advantage, thus she requires the use of her steins to keep the pressure up.
*Some tools are indirect, or have vague applications in most match-ups.
*Stein shots can sometimes interrupt your own pressure and combos. This can be mitigated with discipline but sometimes its largely out if your hands.
*Knockdown game requires a fair bit of practice, there's a lot to learn!

*Throw Cancelable


A mostly typical standing jab. Whiffs on most characters' crouching hurtbox, hits Hakumen and Tager crouching and Kagura blocking if canceled into off another button. Excellent hitbox and active window with a minimal extended hitbox causes this move to clash quite often. µ's 5A is most effective as a fast ground-to-air poke, and as a normal to stagger her interior pressure, setting up throws and frame-traps. 2A in general is a slightly more effective tool to use in neutral against grounded opponents, but 5A's higher hitbox makes it the choice against airborne opponents.

{{clr|B|5B}} is almost exclusively a pressure  tool. It has an awful hitbox and awful recovery, recovering only 2 frames faster than {{clr|C|5C}}. The only reason this move isn't completely outclassed by {{clr|A|6A}} as a pressure tool is because {{clr|B|5B}} is -4 on GCOD, while {{clr|A|6A}} is -7. Otherwise, {{clr|A|6A}} has better range against crouchers, doesn't consume a B chain so you can do {{clr|B|2B}} {{clr|A|6A}} {{clr|B|2B}}, and retains basically all other properties worth considering.
It also sees infrequent use in combos as a more damaging normal than {{clr|B|2B}} in situations where you don't have time to use {{clr|A|6A}} or {{clr|C|5C}}.

This button also shines in making Mu's throw extremely irritating to deal with, as even if they tech the throw, {{clr|C|5C}} is in range to hit the opponent afterwards anyway. Clipping a skittish opponent jumping after a throw tech can lead to very high damage.

5B is almost exclusively a pressure and punish tool. The main weaknesses of 5B are that the recovery, hitbox and frame advantage for a standing B normal are all rather bad. Infact, 5B recovers only 2 frames faster than 5C! Pair this up with an unreliable hitbox and you have a button that generally isn't worth using in neutral. 5B's true strength is the number of options it has following it, and leading into it. The move gatlings into nearly all of µ's other normals, and can be late chained out of at almost any time. It's also jump cancelable! Combining this with varied use of Special Cancels, Drive cancels and Jump cancels lead to this move despite its issues having an important place in pressure and mixup.

Immense normal, and one of the fastest for the amount of coverage, 5C is one of the better pokes in the game; a very deadly tool when implemented correctly. 5C is the go-to normal for combos, as the damage/proration ratio is very good. It leads to nice damage on normal hit in the corner, or counter-hit midscreen with meter. Because of the enormous hitbox, it's easy to confirm into 5C to pick up a full combo as soon as possible after landing a hit. 5C has an extended hurtbox that reaches just over half the length of its hitbox and discourages using 5C as an anti-air among other things, so ideally you'll want to space this as often as you can without inhibiting your options on hit.

One of Mu's anti-airs. While the hitbox is very big with more vertical range than any of her other options and the ability to hit behind her, the invulnerability to air moves is fairly slow and the high recovery makes it easier to bait. Furthermore, her hurtbox extends vertically ''before'' the head invulnerability kicks in making it easier to get hit out of the startup. Best used as a hard read anti-air as the reward if correct is great.

As a punish, {{clr|C|2C}} is unparalleled. It's more consistent than {{clr|C|6C}} due to faster startup and lack of a dead zone, and like {{clr|C|6C}} allows Mu to combo directly into charged {{MMC|input=63214C|label=[[#Sword of Decimation|Sword of Decimation]]}} (usually referred to as SOD or SOD2 when charged) on counter hit for extremely high damage.

A typical crouching jab. Similar to 5A in terms of characteristics. Unlike 5A however, 2A is able to hit all characters crouching. The ability to cancel into a throw makes this move a dangerous pressure tool when used correctly, even with a -2 frame advantage. The key feature to the pressure ability of 2A is its ability to late-chain into itself and other moves. The late-chain into itself allows you to be a lot less predictable with your blockstrings, and can level up your pressure from a character whose pressure is only sub-par. Its ability to cancel into throw also allows for deeper mind games. A common example would be causing throw reject miss against the Throw Option Select, though other uses for its cancel into throw can be found.

{{Description|7|text=
Overall, Mu's most effective and well rounded normal. Excellent hitbox, startup, recovery in almost every situation. With the character's ability to convert any hit near the corner into good damage, this normal is her most consistent origin of damage output. 2B shares most of 5B's strengths with almost none of its weaknesses, this includes 5B's ability to gattling into nearly anything else. It does lose the ability to jump cancel, but gains hitting low in its place. 2B excels at everything from poking to use as a cross-under normal, and its liberal application should never be underestimated. Due to the excellent hitbox and speedy startup, it will beat out tools that many characters rely on in neutral especially when paired with dashing momentum, while also being nearly impossible to whiff punish as well as even on block.

{{clr|A|6A}} also has use in blockstrings because it has many cancel options, while being relatively safe on [[BBCF/Mechanics#Guard_Cancel_Overdrive|GCOD]] at -7. A blockstring you'll probably see a lot is {{clr|B|2B}} > {{clr|A|6A}} > {{clr|B|2B}}.

*11-16 Head Invulnerability


One of Mu's anti-airs, while the hitbox is very big with more vertical range than any of her other options by quite alot, the invulnerability to air moves is rather average. Being her biggest anti air it is also naturally her most punishable on whiff so avoid getting predictable with this. Also very useful in ground blockstrings because if your opponent is expecting you to gatling into 5C, you can instead special cancel into a projectile (that varies according to the situation) to restart applying your pressure.

====== <font style="visibility:hidden" size="0">6B</font> ======
Mu retracts her feet from the floor during the forward roll of the animation, letting her dodge sweeping attacks, aka classic "low crush" or "high profile", but is not the same as having actual foot invulnerability and can still lose to foot property attacks. Similarly, she is never considered airborne during any part of the attack, so she can still be thrown out of it.

{{clr|C|6C}} is primarily a combo tool, but sees use in neutral in specific matchups as way to heavily punish reckless projectile usage, due to being entirely disjoint and having long range.
This move is used in nearly every corner combo, and some midscreen ones for corner carry. It will nearly always combo from {{clr|C|5C}} regardless of context. Some characters will need {{clr|C|6C}} to be spaced slightly less due to smaller hurtboxes interacting with its dead zone (Particularly wallsplat hurtboxes in corners).
{{clr|C|6C}} can be used in blockstrings as a frame trap or simply to push your opponent farther away and give you more blockstun to drive cancel or special cancel into something. Can be gapless out of {{clr|C|2C}} instead of {{clr|C|5C}}. Be careful about using this, it's absurdly unsafe on whiff and is a great spot for the opponent to use GCOD or [[BBCF/Tech#Overdrive_Option_Select|OD OS]] if canceled into from {{clr|C|5C}} too frequently.

This move is combo or blockstring fodder. It's a jump cancellable low that's a 1f frame trap off your {{clr|B|2B}} and into uncharged {{MMC|input=63214C|label=[[#Sword of Decimation|SOD]]}}, so it's a vital tool for semi safely blowing up [[BBCF/Tech#Overdrive_Option_Select|OD OS]]. However, it's GCOD unsafe. You can also use this to call out people fuzzy jumping out of your spaced {{clr|B|6B}}.

It doesn't lead to much midscreen without rapid or overdrive cancel, however in the corner you can extend with SOD for a full combo.
{{#lsth:BBCF/Mu-12/Data|6C}}

As a punish, it's actually pretty decent. Counter hit {{clr|C|3C}} lets you combo into SOD2 immediately, so it does fairly reasonably damage, but it's outclassed by {{clr|C|2C}} > SOD2 as a starter. Use that instead.

*Can be used 3 times per string.


6C's most practical use neutral-wise is to punish other characters using moves with slow recovery at a certain range from you. For example, Rachel summoning George XIII or Arakune F-Inverse without needing to block the side hitboxes first and thus grant him the ability to rapid cancel. This move will be seen in nearly every corner combo (And some midscreen ones for the corner carry). It will nearly always combo from 5C regardless of context (Crouching, ch, etc). Some characters will need 6C to be spaced slightly less due to smaller hurtboxes interacting with its dead zone (Particularly wallsplat hurtboxes in corners). 6C can be used in blockstrings as a frame trap or simply to push your opponent farther away and giving you even more blockstun to drive cancel or special cancel into something, but do not forget that this IS a frametrap and always will be without a stein so autopiloting into this is ill advised.

This move is mostly used as a block string ender or pressure reset with steins, because it can be cancelled into from most of Mu's normals, and is jump cancelable on block. It also hits low so it can be used for mixup from a blocked 5B/6A if you have already used 2B in your blockstring. This is especially useful in the corner, because you can get very decent meterless damage off of it. Can be used as a meterless combo ender in the corner, but is generally inferior to stein setups. Doesn't have many uses at neutral, but is good for punishing moves that are vulnerable only to lows (Tager's voltech charge, Tager's 6A, Litchi's Ittsuu), because on counterhit you get a full combo.

Ah yes, the steins. Without them Mu wouldn't be...well Mu. As mentioned above, steins shoot a laser after a predetermined amount of time following deployment. This laser travels roughly half a screen away from the steins position before disappearing. Afterwards the stein will remain on screen for use with 2 of her specials and one of her distortions. Up to 4 of them can be placed at once with any over that number deleting the oldest stein.

|description=
Mu sets a stein in one of four positions, which tracks the opponent and then fires a half-screen projectile. In setplay and combos, steins are extremely strong and allow Mu to reset pressure, force mixup situations or get much higher damage. In neutral, steins are a low risk way to take advantage of respect and also provide fuel for her very powerful stein specials, {{clr|D|214D}}, {{clr|D|236D}} and {{clr|D|632146D}}. In pressure, steins are a safe way to disengage via whiff canceling into jump.


While at the surface they might seem rather underwhelming, their true strength and a major aspect of playing Mu is the sheer number of things you can use both the laser shot itself for, the specials using them and the actions you can cancel into from a stein placement as well as the ability to cancel buttons into steins on both hit and block. Any of Mu's buttons can be canceled into a stein placement and she can cancel any stein placement into: Jump, Special/Super, and any C normal. The number and complexity of things you can do with steins could take an entire page to cover alone so play around with them yourself and you might just find one!
Overdrive steins are a different beast entirely. They retain the whiff cancel windows of uncharged steins with the projectile properties of charged steins,  fire twice as fast, and will fire even after block or hit as long as Mu isn't in hitstun or blockstun when the stein attempts to fire. These properties combined make overdrive steins a menace in neutral and can lock the opponent down from across the screen long enough for Mu to approach and mix them up. Raw overdrive in neutral lasts at least 4 seconds, and is strong enough to be worth considering.

*Uncharged stiens can be cancelled into charged ones and vice versa.
Charged steins are significantly less safe to just throw out due to a much later whiff cancel window, and mostly serve as setplay tools. However, an uncontested string of charged steins in neutral can make it very annoying for an opponent to approach you, as each charged stein can somewhat cover the placement of another.
They also have uses in specific matchups, such as versus Arakune or Izanami. Arakune has very poor mobility, and struggles to deal with a fortress of charged steins. Izanami can't block while using her drive, so a charged stein in neutral can force her to attempt to approach, throw out bits to force you to block at positions that don't lead to anything for her or use ribcage.

Thanks to steins giving her the ability to confirm it, Mu is able to get better overall reward off of her uncharged crush trigger than most of the cast and doesn't need the corner to do so. Also, the attack itself works similarly to a projectile in that Mu's hurtbox doesn't extend much. Mu gets about 3.7k to 4k off uncharged CT in the corner with a stein to confirm it.
Doesn't really see much use in combos. Uncharged can combo off {{clr|C|3C}}, but if you're close enough to use {{clr|C|3C}} > CT you were probably close enough to do {{clr|B|2B}} > {{clr|A|6A}}/{{clr|C|5C}} > {{clr|B|6B}} instead.

Character defining backdash. Tied highest distance moved combined with low backdash recovery makes this extremely difficult for most characters to deal with. Can generally escape okizeme or pressure midscreen free unless your opponent meaties you using a move with a lot of range and active frames, such as {{MiniMoveCard|game=BBCF|chara=Ragna the Bloodedge|input=5B|label=Ragna's 5B}}.

Thanks to steins giving her the ability to confirm it, Mu is able to get better overall reward off of her uncharged crush trigger than most of the cast and doesn't need the corner to do so. Also, the attack itself works similarly to a projectile in that Mu's hurtbox doesn't extend much.

{{clr|D|236D}} is a powerful setplay tool with niche use in neutral. Mu fires a laser at the stein marked 1, which then bounces to stein #2, and eventually the opponent when all steins have been passed through. This can result in an absurd amount of blockstun - With the opponent between two steins, Mu can trivially reset pressure or use her standing overhead. With four steins, Mu has enough time to jump and force a {{Keyword|50/50}} via delayed airdash {{clr|B|j.B}} > {{clr|C|j.2C}} vs empty jump {{clr|B|2B}}. Mu can set up four steins on top of the opponent with her [[/Combos#Corner Routes|Corner Middle C route.]]

In neutral, this move is significantly less oppressive, but can still be an effective way to punish respect from the opponent with the correct stein placements. {{clr|D|4D}} > {{clr|D|2D}} > {{clr|D|236D}} is plus enough to start pressure, and can be difficult to contest due to {{clr|D|236D}} remaining if Mu is hit. Despite remaining on hit, Mu players should be careful using this, as the recovery is extremely high and the tracking can sometimes leave something to be desired - It is possible for the opponent to avoid the last laser, or punish with an option that is invulnerable during the animation, such as throws or some supers.
{{AttackVersion|name=Ground}}
 
{{#lsth:BBCF/Mu-12/Data|236A}}
This move has no utility in combos. Each bounce scales individually, so outside of the occasional combo starter when someone disrespects Mu's setplay, this is not something that sees use. {{clr|D|214D}} is also significantly more effective in combos, and both consume your steins.

236A summons a lightning ball that is able to deal 3 hits to the opponent or absorb 3 projectiles (spark bolt not included). It is a very good zoning tool as the trajectory arcs upwards (Downwards if used in the air). It keeps characters like Ragna and Makoto at bay really well as it is hard for them to approach if it is in play. Though, it should be cautiously used if it is used against a character with high mobility such as Taokaka or Valkenhayn as they can jump over it with their movement options and still get in easily or Hakumen, whom using it against is largely just granting him a free void.

Very powerful in neutral. {{clr|D|214D}} is extremely plus on hit or block, and can lead to full combos or pressure from fullscreen with multiple staggered stein placements. When used in the air, {{clr|D|j.214D}} can be tricky to punish, as steins can hit the opponent and give you advantage while you retain air actions after the move ends.

623C is Mu's idea of a reversal move. It gets invulnerability for the first 8 frames then it trades that for full body guard point until frame 21, making it one of the longer invulnerability times. It's hitbox covers all around Mu which makes it so you can't bait the DP by crossing her up. One downsides to this move are that it can be susceptible to certain safejumps and Option-Selects due to the 14F startup, and that it is not air unblockable (though not as significant a shortcoming). It also has very poor reach vertically and horizontally and Mu doesn't move at all when she uses it, meaning it can be basically useless against some more long ranged pokes and footsies.
Also sees use in combos. Generally, combos will stabilize into {{clr|D|214D}} then perform a string of steins, normals and specials for setplay.


Cancelling steins into the air and ground versions of this move can make your zoning game very difficult for your opponents to deal with. The air version can also be used as a crossup when combined with an instant air dash, very risky though, and requires meter or a setup to combo afterwards.
*Does nothing if used without steins present.

{{clr|A|236A}} is a situational neutral tool to bait your opponent into jumping, or to occupy space to buy time for steins to fire. Awful in pressure due to long recovery, low blockstun and low hitstun, and absolutely no use in combos as it is very hard continue your combo if used and doesn't reward the effort anyway. Has some use in setplay as a meaty, but this is mostly a knowledge check as the opponent can let it blue beat or roll into it, then air tech out.
{{clr|A|j.236A}} is largely the same, but arcs downwards and also stalls air momentum. It can be a bit more useful in neutral when done low to the ground, as it can occupy an awkward height where they can't run under but it can also hit jumps. Floating high in the air to waste time for your charged steins to fire is also a good use of {{clr|A|j.236A}}.

{{clr|C|623C}} is Mu's primary reversal move. It has short horizontal and vertical range, but is still amazing to get opponents off Mu during pressure. The hitbox also surrounds Mu, so it can't be crossed up, and has an above average amount of invulnerability and active frames.

Uncharged: In pressure SoD primarily serves as an alternative to 6c. SoD is slightly faster than 6c and having frame advantage that is juuuust good enough to make it very hard for most of the cast to punish you outside of close range. In exchange you lose the ability to stein cancel said recovery. Its also exceptionally plus on RC with 2b becoming airtight should they block or lead to nice corner carry and a confirm should it hit. As for use in combos it ground slides making it great for extending combos near/in the corner. SoD is also a standard ender in many combos including mid screen with some of Mu's more zoning oriented matchups to send them away from you.
Has use in combos as one of Mu's highest damage routes by using steins to combo after {{clr|C|j.623C}}. The only downside is that {{clr|C|j.623C}} corner routes are distance dependent, and require Mu to be relatively close to the opponent for the combo to work. Leads to absurd reward if performed, however - 4.2k damage off {{clr|B|2B}} or nearly 5.0k off {{clr|C|5C}}.


Charged: Purely a combo tool. The charged version gives you a wall bounce and a ton of untech time so its found in many corner routes. It should go without saying using this for much else is a bad idea as not only is it slow its also actually more minus than the uncharged version. Side note that this charged version is often written in combo notation as SoD2 or SOD2 as despite appearances there are no in-between levels of charge, just uncharged and max.
Cancelling steins into the air and ground versions of this move can make your zoning game very difficult for your opponents to deal with. The air version can also be used as a crossup when combined with an instant air dash, but this is very risky and requires meter or a setup to combo afterwards.

*If no stiens are set at all, This move animates as normal, but nothing is fired.
*Does not disappear if Mu is attacked.


236D is a decent move move to use in neutral because it travels through all the steins and then heads towards Mu's opponent. It forces your opponent to block, even when they are hitting Mu after the laser comes out due to the laser aiming at Mu's opponent after it has passed through the last stein. The gaps between 236D and her strings are variable due to placement of steins and which attacks Mu uses to force her opponent to block which could lead to ambiguous mix ups/frame traps.
Advancing crossup attack that launches on hit. Mostly used in combos and for whiffing after a midscreen {{clr|C|6C}} for extra corner carry. The distance travelled in combination with the short recovery also make this a surprisingly good mobility tool to evade the opponent or escape the corner.


This move is best used when Mu is relatively far from her opponent or right as her opponent is knocked down to the ground so she has time to set up the laser as it has quite a bit of startup. The faster laser means less blockstun, and multiple steins are recommended when using this move, to guarantee at least some effectiveness. This does however give it new uses, especially when fighting zoners such as Rachel, to force them to block.
Can also be used in a setup midscreen to make it effectively unreactable. You set a stein that fires as you cross them up with Tachi, then Tachi hits them and leads to a combo. In corner setplay it can be used to vacuum the opponent out of the corner.
}}
*Launches extremely high on counter hit.
*Goes extremely far when microdashed.
*Recovery is slightly deceptive. Has 5f regular landing recovery which can be canceled with buttons, run or block.
**If this recovery is canceled out of Mu is +2, otherwise she's -3. You can also cancel with run then perform an action that you wouldn't be able to cancel into such as backdash or jump.

Uncharged (SOD): In pressure SOD primarily serves as last ditch frame trap, as it starts up 1f faster than {{clr|C|6C}}, which enables it to blow up [[BBCF/Mechanics#Overdrive_Option_Select|OD OS]] in pressure due to being a 1f frame trap off {{clr|C|5C}} and {{clr|C|3C}}. Despite having punishable frame advantage the pushback can generally make it safe if done at the end of a string.
{{AttackDataHeader-BBCF}}

In combos it ground slides making it great for extending combos near/in the corner. SOD is also a standard ender in many combos due to the hard knockdown and ability to cancel into steins - SOD{{tt|w|Whiff}} enders can catch non neutral tech options while the steins make you plus, resulting in very oppressive knockdown situations.

The CF replacement for Mu's old 214d, Ame no Habakiri/Divine Wraith of the Heavens. While its functions overlap somewhat with Totsuka, it nevertheless is overall an improvement over Habakiri as it retains a use in combos while also becoming more useful in neutral as a lower recovery alternative to Totsuka. Also, this move has a deceptively high amount of hitstun especially on counter hit often allowing you to cross the screen for a small confirm and bring them to the corner.
It also can sometimes serve as a neutral poke, despite the slow speed. It has a very high vertical hitbox, long actives and leads to full combos on counter hit, while having the same recovery as her other main grounded neutral poke, {{clr|C|5C}}.

Charged (SOD2): Purely a combo tool. SOD2 does extreme damage combined with less {{keyword|proration}} than SOD, resulting in hilarious damage when done early. It should go without saying using it for much else is a bad idea as its both extremely slow and still minus on block. It can see some use as a way to keep opponents honest if they overdrive during the startup, as you can hold to retract your hurtbox or release partially charged to meaty the end of the OD animation.


====== <font style="visibility:hidden" size="0">Ikutachi - Sword of Infinity </font> ======
It should also be noted that SOD2 is automatic upon reaching the required number of frames. You do not need to manually release for faster startup as you do charged crush trigger and trying to do so only makes a slower accidental uncharged SOD a possibility, so just keep holding {{clr|C|C}} until after she swings.

Overview

Overview

Mu-12 (stylized as μ-No.12-) is a well-rounded character with fast movement, high damage, powerful vortex and low risk zoning.

Mu-12 has dominant neutral, able to out zone most characters with 2B, 5C, j.C, j.2C and her fast movement. In addition to this, her Steins (xD) are a low risk way to create threats for the opponent, either by waiting for the stein to fire or by using her powerful stein specials.

Mu-12 also has an extremely oppressive knockdown situation. Steins can be used to meaty Hitting an opponent to cover the moment as they lose invincibility. The most common one is performing an attack early on okizeme to gain frame advantage and bait reversals. the opponent while punishing all rolls and avoiding reversals, extend pressure, or enforce mixup. Combined with her high damage, Mu can three touch the vast majority of the cast. Her mixup is also fairly strong, as she has multiple ways to set up 50/50 A mix-up where the opponent has a choice between two options, such as strike-throw or high-low. A "true 50/50" is used to describe a mix-up in which the defender must guess and commit to one option, without any way to determine which option the opponent will choose and react accordingly. situations, such as blockstrings into delayed airdash j.B vs empty low 2B, or 6B1 Rapid Cancel 2B.

While Mu has areas she does not excel at, such as her pressure and defensive tools, she's not bad at them. 2B is a +0 on block normal with extremely low recovery, allowing her to apply a basic stagger pressure gameplan. While her defensive options have flaws such as low range, she still has access to 623C, which is a meterless True Reversal A reversal attack of which the user is invulnerable throughout all startup frames, including the first active frame or more..

Drive: Steins Gunner

Steins Gunner projects a small turret to the targeted location. Steins have a long charge up before they fire, and will not fire or remain active if Mu is hit or blocks an attack. Steins are created aiming at the opponent, and very slightly track before firing.

Steins can also be charged by holding down the Drive button. Charged Steins take longer to fire, but have much more powerful beams and track the opponent significantly more effectively before firing.

Up to four Steins can be on the stage at a time; if Mu tries to set a fifth Stein, it will replace the oldest one, regardless of if the stein has fired yet. Steins are also used for two of Mu's special attacks and one of her supers; Totsuka Blade, Tokotachi Blade, and Blessed Mirror.

All Stein summons are cancellable into Specials, Drives, Jumps, C Normals, and 6B on whiff. Stein whiff cancels are required for all but the most basic of Mu combos, and also allow Steins to be used as a low risk neutral option. A maximum of two steins can be performed per string.

Each stein is numbered by the order they were placed in, starting at one for new steins and ending at four. This is used to indicate the order for Totsuka Blade.
Overdrive: Steins Geiser
New Steins always fire charged lasers. Steins fire extremely quickly. Steins will fire even if Mu is hit or blocks, so long as she is not in hitstun or blockstun when they attempt to fire. Steins Geiser does not change Steins that have already been set. Additionally, all of Mu's Drive related attacks become much stronger. See each move's section for details.

5B is almost exclusively a pressure tool. It has an awful hitbox and awful recovery, recovering only 2 frames faster than 5C. The only reason this move isn't completely outclassed by 6A as a pressure tool is because 5B is -4 on GCOD, while 6A is -7. Otherwise, 6A has better range against crouchers, doesn't consume a B chain so you can do 2B 6A 2B, and retains basically all other properties worth considering.

It also sees infrequent use in combos as a more damaging normal than 2B in situations where you don't have time to use 6A or 5C.

5C is an amazing neutral tool, with high horizontal and vertical range for its speed. It also has very high reward near the corner by using 5C 6C Tachiw wallsplat into a full combo plus setplay.

This button also shines in making Mu's throw extremely irritating to deal with, as even if they tech the throw, 5C is in range to hit the opponent afterwards anyway. Clipping a skittish opponent jumping after a throw tech can lead to very high damage.

Mu's best normal. 2B is a strong neutral tool with good range and low recovery. It's good for pressure because it's +0 on block, and good for mixup because it's an 8f low. You can even use it to cross under neutral tech! With Mu's ability to convert any hit near the corner into good damage, this normal is also her most consistent source of damage. 2B excels at everything and it should be applied liberally.

One of Mu's anti-airs. While the hitbox is very big with more vertical range than any of her other options and the ability to hit behind her, the invulnerability to air moves is fairly slow and the high recovery makes it easier to bait. Furthermore, her hurtbox extends vertically before the head invulnerability kicks in making it easier to get hit out of the startup. Best used as a hard read anti-air as the reward if correct is great.

As a punish, 2C is unparalleled. It's more consistent than 6C due to faster startup and lack of a dead zone, and like 6C allows Mu to combo directly into charged Sword of DecimationBBCS Mu SOD.pngGuardMidStartup17~39 [40]Recovery22Advantage-10 [-8] (usually referred to as SOD or SOD2 when charged) on counter hit for extremely high damage.

Another of Mu's anti-airs, and probably the one you'll be using most frequently. Floats on counter hit. Faster than 2C, and good horizontal range, but not very good vertically. It also recovers significantly faster than 2C so it's less susceptible to double jump baits.

6A also has use in blockstrings because it has many cancel options, while being relatively safe on GCOD at -7. A blockstring you'll probably see a lot is 2B > 6A > 2B. It integrates two lows, is +0 on block, sets up spaced 6B if they barrier and retains a decent number of cancel options to frame trap the opponent with.

A very strong combo tool and Mu's primary overhead. 6B has very long range and huge reward. It has faster than average startup compared to other characters' overheads, but the catch is that only the second hit is an overhead. Thus you'll need to space it out so that only the second hit will land, or spend meter to rapid cancel the first hit and hit them low with 2B. Steins can be used to cover the startup and prevent them from disrespecting you.

The second hit of 6B is a ground bounce, which is her primary launcher midscreen when you're close enough to combo into it.

Mu retracts her feet from the floor during the forward roll of the animation, letting her dodge sweeping attacks, aka classic "low crush" or "high profile", but is not the same as having actual foot invulnerability and can still lose to foot property attacks. Similarly, she is never considered airborne during any part of the attack, so she can still be thrown out of it.

6C is primarily a combo tool, but sees use in neutral in specific matchups as way to heavily punish reckless projectile usage, due to being entirely disjoint and having long range.

This move is used in nearly every corner combo, and some midscreen ones for corner carry. It will nearly always combo from 5C regardless of context. Some characters will need 6C to be spaced slightly less due to smaller hurtboxes interacting with its dead zone (Particularly wallsplat hurtboxes in corners).

6C can be used in blockstrings as a frame trap or simply to push your opponent farther away and give you more blockstun to drive cancel or special cancel into something. Can be gapless out of 2C instead of 5C. Be careful about using this, it's absurdly unsafe on whiff and is a great spot for the opponent to use GCOD or OD OS if canceled into from 5C too frequently.

This move is combo or blockstring fodder. It's a jump cancellable low that's a 1f frame trap off your 2B and into uncharged SODBBCS Mu SOD.pngGuardMidStartup17~39 [40]Recovery22Advantage-10 [-8], so it's a vital tool for semi safely blowing up OD OS. However, it's GCOD unsafe. You can also use this to call out people fuzzy jumping out of your spaced 6B.

It doesn't lead to much midscreen without rapid or overdrive cancel, however in the corner you can extend with SOD for a full combo.

As a punish, it's actually pretty decent. Counter hit 3C lets you combo into SOD2 immediately, so it does fairly reasonably damage, but it's outclassed by 2C > SOD2 as a starter. Use that instead.

Doesn't have many uses in neutral, but is good for punishing moves that are vulnerable only to lows (Tager's Voltec ChargeBBCF Iron Tager 214D 1.pngGuardStartupRecovery39~113Advantage-, Tager's SledgeBBCF Iron Tager 236A.pngGuardAllStartup35~55Recovery20Advantage-7, Litchi's IttsuuBBCF Litchi 41236A.pngGuardMidStartup19~54Recovery40

It's an air jab. You use it as a low risk rising anti air and for setting up airthrow TRM A state in which it is not possible to tech throws. It lasts for a few frames after a throw tech attempt.. In Mu's case, it's also useful as a reverse beat off j.B to make it more plus.

This is your primary jump-in option, as it doesn't have landing recovery, can reverse beat into j.A to be more plus, hits below you, and can hit crossup.

It's also used to hit people overhead in delayed airdash mixup due to being able to hit every character in the game crouching at the right height, while being significantly faster than j.2C. You can also whiff it rising to auto time the delayed airdash on almost all characters, with the exceptions of Celica, Kokonoe, Naoto and Jin.

j.C is an amazing, disjoint air to air and decent air to ground when spaced. It has extremely good reward on counter hit, but it doesn't hit below Mu very well, and has landing recovery so it's vulnerable to low profile attacks.

Instant air backdash j.C is a relatively safe option at round start or after using a drive, with the majority of the cast having no reliable means of punishing her for it.

j.2C is best used as an air-to-air move as it hits high above Mu and leads to good damage on counter hit. It also sees use as a slower, but much larger jump-in than j.B.

Also commonly used after air stalling with a drive, as you cannot whiff cancel drives into j.B.

Mu sets a stein in one of four positions, which tracks the opponent and then fires a half-screen projectile. In setplay and combos, steins are extremely strong and allow Mu to reset pressure, force mixup situations or get much higher damage. In neutral, steins are a low risk way to take advantage of respect and also provide fuel for her very powerful stein specials, 214D, 236D and 632146D. In pressure, steins are a safe way to disengage via whiff canceling into jump.

Overdrive steins are a different beast entirely. They retain the whiff cancel windows of uncharged steins with the projectile properties of charged steins, fire twice as fast, and will fire even after block or hit as long as Mu isn't in hitstun or blockstun when the stein attempts to fire. These properties combined make overdrive steins a menace in neutral and can lock the opponent down from across the screen long enough for Mu to approach and mix them up. Raw overdrive in neutral lasts at least 4 seconds, and is strong enough to be worth considering.

  • Steins can be whiff canceled on the following frames for each input: 4D=14F, 5D=15f, 6D=16F, 2D=18F.
  • Can be whiff canceled into: Drives, C normals, 6B, specials, supers and jump.
  • Any version can cancel into any other (including charged versions), but not into the same version.
  • A maximum of two steins can be placed per chain.
  • A maximum of four steins can be placed at once, with any stein over that number replacing the oldest stein regardless of if it has fired yet or not.
  • Will not fire if Mu blocks or is hit.
    • Except in OD where they will still fire if Mu leaves hitstun or blockstun beforehand.
  • Holding the same direction when cancelling a stein into a second stein will always give you 5D
    • Inputting 3D will give you 2D

Same as above, except for the following differences:

  • The stein takes longer to fire, but now shoots a higher damage, fullscreen laser.
  • Charged steins can be whiff canceled on the following frames for each input: 4[D]=27F, 5[D]=29f, 6[D]=31F, 2[D]=35F.
  • The longer startup also results in the stein adjusting its aim for a longer period.
  • This charged laser is what all steins placed in OD will fire without any of the penalties/differences mentioned above.
  • Uncharged stiens can be cancelled into charged ones and vice versa.

Charged steins are significantly less safe to just throw out due to a much later whiff cancel window, and mostly serve as setplay tools. However, an uncontested string of charged steins in neutral can make it very annoying for an opponent to approach you, as each charged stein can somewhat cover the placement of another.

They also have uses in specific matchups, such as versus Arakune or Izanami. Arakune has very poor mobility, and struggles to deal with a fortress of charged steins. Izanami can't block while using her drive, so a charged stein in neutral can force her to attempt to approach, throw out bits to force you to block at positions that don't lead to anything for her or use ribcage.

Air steins are the slightly more situational alternative to ground steins. Like ground steins these can be canceled into all of the same things including jump so long as you had not spent your air action already. Particular uses for these that can't be done by ground steins include using its ability to stop air momentum to bait anti-airs and whiff punish with j.2C and in combos for both the momentum and to squeeze in an extra j.2C though canceling a j.2C into an air stein and back.

Midscreen, Mu's throw is a relevant mixup tool that leads to average damage, strong corner carry and setplay using microdash 6A or 2C routes. In the corner, this throw leads to absurd damage as you can immediately cancel into SOD2 and follow up with her high damage 2C > 5D > 2C > 5D corner juggle for nearly 3.8k damage with no loss of setplay.

The animation and launch angle is 100% identical on back throw, just in the opposite direction; the only notable difference is that 4B+C > SOD2 can whiff if you're too close to the corner. This can be avoided by slightly delaying the SOD2.

Airthrows are great aggressive anti airs for every character, and Mu is no exception.

Sideswaps, but is otherwise mostly the same as her grounded back throw. The same midscreen followups work.

Corner combos are significantly different, mostly because this throws them out of the corner. If you throw them out of the corner, microdash 5C > 2C > tachiBBCP Mu 63214B-1.pngGuardAllStartup31Recovery16 (7)Advantage+2 will side swap and allow you to retain corner.

Thanks to steins giving her the ability to confirm it, Mu is able to get better overall reward off of her uncharged crush trigger than most of the cast and doesn't need the corner to do so. Also, the attack itself works similarly to a projectile in that Mu's hurtbox doesn't extend much. Mu gets about 3.7k to 4k off uncharged CT in the corner with a stein to confirm it.

Doesn't really see much use in combos. Uncharged can combo off 3C, but if you're close enough to use 3C > CT you were probably close enough to do 2B > 6A/5C > 6B instead. Charged CT doesn't see much use either, as overdrive double super is a much more rewarding use of meter.

Mu fires a laser at the stein marked 1, which then bounces to stein #2, and eventually the opponent when all steins have been passed through. This can result in an absurd amount of blockstun - With the opponent between two steins, Mu can trivially reset pressure or use her standing overhead. With four steins, Mu has enough time to jump and force a 50/50 A mix-up where the opponent has a choice between two options, such as strike-throw or high-low. A "true 50/50" is used to describe a mix-up in which the defender must guess and commit to one option, without any way to determine which option the opponent will choose and react accordingly. via delayed airdash j.B > j.2C vs empty jump 2B. Mu can set up four steins on top of the opponent with her Corner Middle C route.

In neutral, this move is significantly less oppressive, but can still be an effective way to punish respect from the opponent with the correct stein placements. 4D > 2D > 236D is plus enough to start pressure, and can be difficult to contest due to 236D remaining if Mu is hit. Despite remaining on hit, Mu players should be careful using this, as the recovery is extremely high and the tracking can sometimes leave something to be desired - It is possible for the opponent to avoid the last laser, or punish with an option that is invulnerable during the animation, such as throws or some supers.

This move has no utility in combos. Each bounce scales individually, so outside of the occasional combo starter when someone disrespects Mu's setplay, this is not something that sees use. 214D is also significantly more effective in combos, and both consume your steins.

  • If more steins are placed while active it will bounce off of them as well. The cutoff point for this is roughly just before it reaches the last stein.
  • The laser is considered a new projectile every time it bounces, meaning it can hit once for every bounce.
  • Each stein disappears shortly after reflecting the laser.
  • Stays active even if Mu is hit or has to block.
  • Prevents newly placed steins from firing their own shot.
  • If no steins are set, this move animates as normal but nothing is fired.
  • Counter hit recovery

Very powerful in neutral. 214D is extremely plus on hit or block, and can lead to full combos or pressure from fullscreen with multiple staggered stein placements. When used in the air, j.214D can be tricky to punish, as steins can hit the opponent and give you advantage while you retain air actions after the move ends.

236A is a situational neutral tool to bait your opponent into jumping, or to occupy space to buy time for steins to fire. Awful in pressure due to long recovery, low blockstun and low hitstun, and absolutely no use in combos as it is very hard continue your combo if used and doesn't reward the effort anyway. Has some use in setplay as a meaty, but this is mostly a knowledge check as the opponent can let it blue beat or roll into it, then air tech out.

j.236A is largely the same, but arcs downwards and also stalls air momentum. It can be a bit more useful in neutral when done low to the ground, as it can occupy an awkward height where they can't run under but it can also hit jumps. Floating high in the air to waste time for your charged steins to fire is also a good use of j.236A.

623C is Mu's primary reversal move. It has short horizontal and vertical range, but is still amazing to get opponents off Mu during pressure. The hitbox also surrounds Mu, so it can't be crossed up, and has an above average amount of invulnerability and active frames.

Has use in combos as one of Mu's highest damage routes by using steins to combo after j.623C. The only downside is that j.623C corner routes are distance dependent, and require Mu to be relatively close to the opponent for the combo to work. Leads to absurd reward if performed, however - 4.2k damage off 2B or nearly 5.0k off 5C.

Cancelling steins into the air and ground versions of this move can make your zoning game very difficult for your opponents to deal with. The air version can also be used as a crossup when combined with an instant air dash, but this is very risky and requires meter or a setup to combo afterwards.

  • Counter hit recovery, like most invulnerable moves

Frequently referred to as 'Tachi' rather than 63214B.

Advancing crossup attack that launches on hit. Mostly used in combos and for whiffing after a midscreen 6C for extra corner carry. The distance travelled in combination with the short recovery also make this a surprisingly good mobility tool to evade the opponent or escape the corner.

Can also be used in a setup midscreen to make it effectively unreactable. You set a stein that fires as you cross them up with Tachi, then Tachi hits them and leads to a combo. In corner setplay it can be used to vacuum the opponent out of the corner.

  • Launches extremely high on counter hit.
  • Goes extremely far when microdashed.
  • Recovery is slightly deceptive. Has 5f regular landing recovery which can be canceled with buttons, run or block.
    • If this recovery is canceled out of Mu is +2, otherwise she's -3. You can also cancel with run then perform an action that you wouldn't be able to cancel into such as backdash or jump.

Uncharged (SOD): In pressure SOD primarily serves as last ditch frame trap, as it starts up 1f faster than 6C, which enables it to blow up OD OS in pressure due to being a 1f frame trap off 5C and 3C. Despite having punishable frame advantage the pushback can generally make it safe if done at the end of a string.

In combos it ground slides making it great for extending combos near/in the corner. SOD is also a standard ender in many combos due to the hard knockdown and ability to cancel into steins - SODwWhiff enders can catch non neutral tech options while the steins make you plus, resulting in very oppressive knockdown situations.

It also can sometimes serve as a neutral poke, despite the slow speed. It has a very high vertical hitbox, long actives and leads to full combos on counter hit, while having the same recovery as her other main grounded neutral poke, 5C.


Charged (SOD2): Purely a combo tool. SOD2 does extreme damage combined with less proration A method of combo damage reduction. Specific types of proration have specific names, but each type reduces the amount of damage subsequent attacks in the combo will deal by a specific amount. than SOD, resulting in hilarious damage when done early. It should go without saying using it for much else is a bad idea as its both extremely slow and still minus on block. It can see some use as a way to keep opponents honest if they overdrive during the startup, as you can hold to retract your hurtbox or release partially charged to meaty the end of the OD animation.

It should also be noted that SOD2 is automatic upon reaching the required number of frames. You do not need to manually release for faster startup as you do charged crush trigger and trying to do so only makes a slower accidental uncharged SOD a possibility, so just keep holding C until after she swings.

An amazing super for neutral due to throwing out a large number of tracking projectiles that stay on hit or block, and can frequently leave Mu plus enough to start pressure. Also useful for combos as a way to add more damage in Mu's double super routes. Zero invulnerability however, so don't try to use this as a reversal.

  • Fires one laser at each available stein and one laser directly at the opponent. Each laser aimed at a stein will then be bounced from that stein towards your opponent, leading to a maximum of 9 hits overall.
  • There is a short delay between each laser fired, with the first one being fired at Stein #1, then each other stein in order, then finally the opponent. The final shot at the opponent always occurs at the same point in the move, no matter how many steins were used.
  • In overdrive, an extra laser is fired directly at the opponent at the same time the move would normally fire one at a stein. This can add up to 4 more hits overall.
