Overview

"If this is one of the "possibilities", then I'll perform my duty to the fullest"

Backstory

The main heroine of the XBlaze series. Es, short for Embyro Storage, was created by Soichiro Unomaru to be a vessel for the Embryo. She was once a member of the Mitsurugi Agency's Sleipnir unit, tasked with hunting down Unions and capturing them for rehabiliation. At the end of the events of XBlaze, Es leaves her world and timeline and later returns in the main BlazBlue series during the events of BlazBlue Central Fiction. Having lost all memories of her previous life, Es now only exists to protect the gates to the Azure.

Playstyle

Es is a character that specializes in controlling the flow of the match in neutral. She has moderately fast movement and her big broadsword gives her normals with a lot of reach, allowing her to rushdown very well. Her Breunor projectile is a powerful ranged option for controlling space that when used properly it'll force your opponent to approach more cautiously and in certain ways that you can exploit.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths

Weaknesses

Solid range on her normals.
Hard hitting combos that last a lengthy amount of time, especially with an assist. This means that Es can carry you to either corner relatively easily.
Es can adapt to nearly any playstyle and heavily punish an opponent's weak defense in battle thanks to her range, two overheads, crest mechanic, and her projectiles.
The lingering crests in Es's normals are incredibly useful for extending combos, blockstrings, and creating tricky cross-up situations thanks to her j.C.
Has one of the best projectiles in the game thanks to their speedy startup, low end-lag, multiple angles that they can be shot from in the air & ground, and Es's ability to shoot two projectiles in a single quarter-circle input.
Because of all this, Es possesses the tools to initiate an unrelenting offense, in conjunction with a keep-away game that is very bothersome to deal with.
Great reversal action which has a huge pillar-like hitbox.
Solid 2B.
Her j.C is one of the best and most useful aerial moves in the game.

Below-average start-up on certain moves, specifically in her 5B and 214A.
Due to her reliance on crest mechanics and assists to help her approaches at close range, Es has openings in her strings where she can be susceptible to reversal action and/or other counters.

Drive: Crest Arts

In the BlazBlue series, Es drive buttons left a crest on the screen after she would perform the normal. After a certain amount of time that varied by the drive normal, the crest will activate and hit anything in the space it covers. This mechanic has returned in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle but the timing on when the crests will activate has changed. Crests will now activate soon after they are placed, much like her original 5D crest.

+This partner skill has Es fire the staggered version of her Breunor projectile. Each Breunor is the B one so they'll both go fullscreen. The two projectiles can severely limit your opponent's options on the ground and are perfect opportunity to approach and close the gap between you and your opponent. This can be very helpful to improve your partner's neutral, especially in some matchups and for some partner characters lacking neutral tools. However, it does have a bit of startup on it though so be weary about using this too close to your opponent. Try to aim to use this further out to avoid both Es and you getting pinned down by rushdown.
-Detailed description of the usefulness of the move go here
+It can also be good for pressure. The 2 Breunor projectiles provide a good amount of blockstun for you to reset pressure or potentially go for a mixup depending on your character and the situation.
