===Backstory===
{{card|width=4
Izayoi is the true form of the Sealed Armament: Izayoi that Tsubaki Yayoi undertakes to don the power of Immortal Breaker. Turning away from the darkness of the past, she takes up her sword to punish all crimes and seek out the true light. This alternate form of Tsubaki is playable starting from BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma.
|header=Drive: Scarlet Justice
|content= Izayoi’s forward air dash is different from most of the cast’s forward air dash. Instead of dashing straight, she does a dash low to the ground, allowing her to follow it up with an air normal. It is also possible to do the dash from the ground by pressing 66. It allows you to use it as an aggression tool to keep the pressure going as well as potentially mix them up during a blockstring, consisting of IAD {{clr|1|j.A}}, {{clr|3|j.C}} Fuzzy overhead, etc. The dash can also be held longer by holding 6, allowing you to close in from farther distances as well. In addition to that, you can change the angle of her dash by holding 9 or 3.


===Playstyle===
You can also cancel many of her special attacks into Mirage Thurster (teleports) to continue combos or to quickly sandwich your opponent with your partner.
Izayoi is a rushdown character who uses her unique movement options to get in her oppoent’s face, then proceed to pressure her oppoent with her strong pressure/mixup game afterwards. When Izayoi scores a clean hit, she can end her combos with Strike Fall, allowing Izayoi to execute her powerful Okizeme afterwards via a safejump that chases the oppoent’s tech. Afterwards, she can enforce threatening mixups and loop them until the oppoent guesses right/decides to burst.

|-

===Drive: Scarlet Justice===
In BBCF, Izayoi's Drive switches her from standard mode to her Gain-Art mode and back. This allowed for her to have 2 unique fighting styles while powering up her Gain-Art mode. In BBTAG, she stays in her Gain-Art mode for the duration of the match. This means all of her follow ups don't require drive.
 
This also means that she has access to her GA dash at all times (66/j.66)
For those unfamiliar with her mainstream Blazblue counterpart, Izayoi’s forward air dash is different from most of the cast’s forward air dash. Instead of dashing straight, she does a dash low to the ground, allowing her to follow it up with an air normal if you want. It is also possible to do the GA dash by pressing 66 on the ground. It allows you to use it as an aggression tool to keep the pressure going as well as potentially mix them up during a blockstring, consisting of IAD j.A, j.C Fuzzy overhead, etc. The airdash can also be held longer by holding 6, allowing you to close in from farther distances as well. In addition to that, you can influence how high/low the dash goes by holding 9 or 3.

This move is one of Izayoi's most important normals. When combined with GA dash (66/IAD), you can use it as an 19 frame overhead mixup option as well as a method to approach in neutral. It also compensates for Izayoi's rather poor anti air game as she can air to air pretty consistently with {{clr|1|j.A}} due to it's solid combination of speed and range. Albeit it not very likely to happen, {{clr|1|j.A}} can also crossup has her other leg has a hurtbox as well.

While this move doesn't see much use in neutral, it shines much more in terms of pressure and combos.

It can also be used as a fakeout after 66 (delay j.B) and IAD (do j.B immediately after), making it whiff and allowing you to do whatever you want afterwards provided they respect it. j.B is also important for many of Izayoi's air routes, especially j.ABC loops.

Requesting backup!

The BBTag wiki has major gaps in information. The game has gone through numerous significant changes since its release. As a result, many BBTag pages on Dustloop Wiki are out of date or lacking important information.

We need your help expanding the content for this game. If you have knowledge to share, or know people who can help, please contribute to the wiki by editing sections where you can.

Overview

Overview
Izayoi is a rushdown character with unique movement options, threatening high/low mixups, and one of the best safejumps in the game. Coupled with the right assists, Izayoi has the ability to play with momentum and suffocate the opponent with her aggression.

 Izayoi

Pros
Cons
  • Strong mobility thanks to GA dash and teleports
  • Decent projectiles
  • Strong mixup game (IOH 66j.A/B, fuzzy guard setups with j.C, etc)
  • Reliable oki/setplay off of any hit
  • Solid 1-meter punish routes
  • Lackluster footsie game as her best poke, 5B, does its job but is outclassed by a number of other characters
  • Meter hungry
  • DP has no horizontal reach
  • Meterless damage is mediocre
  • Anti-air game is limited
  • Requires good assists to keep pressure


Drive: Scarlet Justice

Izayoi’s forward air dash is different from most of the cast’s forward air dash. Instead of dashing straight, she does a dash low to the ground, allowing her to follow it up with an air normal. It is also possible to do the dash from the ground by pressing 66. It allows you to use it as an aggression tool to keep the pressure going as well as potentially mix them up during a blockstring, consisting of IAD j.A, j.C Fuzzy overhead, etc. The dash can also be held longer by holding 6, allowing you to close in from farther distances as well. In addition to that, you can change the angle of her dash by holding 9 or 3.

You can also cancel many of her special attacks into Mirage Thurster (teleports) to continue combos or to quickly sandwich your opponent with your partner.

Normal Moves

4A

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1000 All 6 3 9 0 B

Izayoi's fastest normal and go-to move for mashing out of blockstrings and as a situational anti-air. Sometimes used in j.ABC loops. Doesn't see much use otherwise.

  • Whiffs on all crouching hitboxes (except Tager, Hakumen, and Waldstein)
  • Jump cancelable on block
Level P1 P2
1 100 70

5A

Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
5A 1000 All 7 5 16 -7 B
5AA 1500 All 11 6 18 -7 B
5AAA 1700 All 14 5 28 -14 B
5AAAA 2300 All 15 3 30 -14 B

5A is your main tool to start combos/block pressure up close. A common mixup option involving 5A is 5A>IAD j.A, a 26f Overhead option that lets you extend pressure solo if the opponent respects you and possibly open up the opponent. j.A will whiff if they push 5A

  • Jump cancelable on block

5AA is combo filler primarily. Can be used in blockstrings but you’d be better off doing 5A>2A>5A...


5AAA is mainly used as combo filler. It has really long recovery, making this move dangerous to throw out on block/pushblock


5AAAA is your auto combo ender and is only used to lead into Cross Raid. It knocks the opponent away fullscreen. Punishable on block.

Version Level P1 P2
5A 2 100 75
5AA 3 100 80
5AAA 4 100 85

5B

Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
5B 1500 All 11 6 18 -7 B
5BB 1700 All 14 3 30 -14 B

5B is Izayoi’s best poke, use this when playing footsies. A little slower than most 5Bs in the game, being an 11f poke. 5B has an extended hurtbox on her sword, so be careful when trying to poke with it. Can be low profiled at the tip of her sword.

  • Can be low profiled at the tip

5BB is combo filler. Whiff punishable if they pushblock 5B.

  • Pretty long recovery on whiff

5BB:

5C

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
800 High 22 3 4+20L -10

Rarely used since 66j.A/B/C are faster overheads and can lead into more damage. Punishable on block.

Level P1 P2
100 100

2A

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1000 Low 9 3 15 -4 F

2A is your main low mixup option as well as stagger pressure.

  • Can gatling into itself up to a max of 3 times
  • Throw Cancellable.
Level P1 P2
2 90 75

2B

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1100×2 All 12 3(6)3 18 -4 F

Not a low. Mainly used for combo filler. Unsafe against pushblock, making it a fairly weak tool for solo pressure. When utilizing assists however, it’s a solid tool for left/right mixups when you have the opponent sandwiched between your team. Can also be used to lock the opponent down for your partner during a blockstring via 2B+AS.

  • Go to punish tool after blocking DP/Supers since it hits twice
Level P1 P2
3 100 80

2C

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1700 Low 13 6 21 -8 F

This is Izayoi’s most important combo filler in her ground combos, as it allows her to stabilize longer range confirms to help 214B connect. In normal block pressure, it usually can be staggered into 236A/C or 214A, but can potentially be punished by pushblock.

  • Can low profile some attacks
Level P1 P2
4 90 85

j.A

Version Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
j.A 1300 High 9 6 15 H
j.AA 1300 High 7 3 12 H

This move is one of Izayoi's most important normals. When combined with GA dash (66/IAD), you can use it as an 19 frame overhead mixup option as well as a method to approach in neutral. It also compensates for Izayoi's rather poor anti air game as she can air to air pretty consistently with j.A due to it's solid combination of speed and range. Albeit it not very likely to happen, j.A can also crossup has her other leg has a hurtbox as well.


j.AA is combo filler for air routes, albeit inferior to j.B in that regard. It can also be used as a double overhead option after 66 j.A depending on how high Izayoi is relative to the opponent (you'll usually need to fly a little higher by holding 9 after 99 to get it to work)

Version Level P1 P2
j.A 3 80 80
j.AA 3 80 80

j.A:
j.AA:

j.B

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1800 High 11 7 21 H

While this move doesn't see much use in neutral, it shines much more in terms of pressure and combos. When it comes to pressure, you can do 66 j.B and either jump and do rising j.C for a fuzzy overhead mixup or land and 2A. It can also be used as a fakeout after 66 (delay j.B) and IAD (do j.B immediately after), making it whiff and allowing you to do whatever you want afterwards provided they respect it. j.B is also important for many of Izayoi's air routes, especially j.ABC loops.

Level P1 P2
4 80 85

j.C

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1700 High 11 6 18 H

Another move that doesn't see much use in neutral but also shines in pressure and combos. As a mixup tool, it's one of Izayoi's best options, as it can fuzzy a majority of the cast after doing 66j.B prior and can even hit Tager and Hakumen crouching, allowing it to be used as a stronger overhead option than 66/IAD j.A in those matchups. As for combos, it sees use mostly in j.C reland loops and to maximize damage with j.C > j.21A~A.

  • Blows back on air hit
Level P1 P2
4 80 75


Universal Moves

Ground Throw

5B+C

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
0×2, 2000 Throw 7~30 3 23 T

Izayoi's throw is great for mixups as her pressure is already strong so most opponents won't expect it. 236B is your main way of converting it into a combo.

Level P1 P2
0×2, 4 100 50
  • Minimum Damage 2000
  • Crumple Duration 100F, Crumple Fall 103F

Aegis Blade

5A+D

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1800 Air Unblockable 14 3 46 -32 B 1~16 All

Izayoi's Reversal Action is mainly used as an anti-air in situations where 214B would fail. It has great vertical range but poor horizontal range making it poor as a DP. It can also be used occasionally to catch opponents high in the air and to stop sandwiches.

Air combo ender leading to Strike Fall. Hits diagonally upwards, so can whiff if air comboing someone too low relative to Izayoi. Use j.C in these cases. Can also be used as an air-to-air or to escape air unblockable setups but these are both situational.

  • Pressing A/B/C during the slash will do Strike Fall as a followup

j.236A

Used to bait/stuff anti-airs and to stop approaches. Izayoi recovers midair but still has landing lag so try to cancel it with something when possible.

236B

Mainly used when combined with an assist as it gives Izayoi great frame advantage. This also makes it good for switching to your partner.

  • Additional projectiles appear both on hit and on block
  • Can follow up with Mirage Thruster. A version remains on the ground, B version teleports up into the air, C version teleports behind the opponent.

j.236B

Has similar uses to the ground version but has much faster startup making it more practical than the ground version when tiger knee.

214A

Useful pressure tool as it has long range and hits low so it will catch sleeping and can be used to end blockstrings as it's safe on block. Has more range than 5B so it can also be used as a poke occasionally.

  • Follow up attack with A/B.
  • Knocks down on hit.

j.214A

Used in a combo where either j.214B would fail or after hitting an airborne opponent with j.C. When retreating with a backward IAD, you can use this to hit an opponent chasing you although you'll need 214C and an assist to make it safe on block.

214B

Izayoi's primary anti-air due to its good horizontal range. However, the angle it goes at makes it poor for hitting opponents directly above her. In those situations, use her DP instead.

  • Can follow up with Mirage Thruster. A version remains on the ground, B version teleports up into the air, C version teleports behind the opponent

The projectiles hang in place for a bit longer than the A version, making it more advantageous on hit or block from further away. Much harder to avoid in general, allowing you to force your opponent to block and/or eat a mixup.

  • Additional projectiles appear both on hit and block

This assist can be a decent approach tool and can provide incredible amounts of lockdown if you can force the opponent to block it. Cross Combo will not destroy the projectile once it leaves her hands, making it possible to produce two sabers on screen at once!

Has the same pros and cons as the point version like the disjoint or the dead zone but overall it's a great anti air.Its only downside is that you can't active switch to izayoi and have her combo unless their in the corner
