;Playstyle
Nu's {{MiniMoveCard|game=BBTag|chara=Nu-13|input=5B|label={{clr|B|B}}}} normals are fast, long range projectiles that she can use to stop approaches and keep the opponent away from her. On hit, she can convert these hits into combos which, while low-damaging lead to good oki. On block however she can transition from zoning into powerful mixups thanks to {{MiniMoveCard|game=BBTag|chara=Nu-13|input=66|label=Act Parcer}}.
:Zoner, Aggressive, Long-range


;Team role
She also has good movement thanks to the aforementioned Act Parcer, above-average run speed and great backdash which lets her quickly reposition and run around her opponents in neutral.

===Drive: Sword Summoner===
However, she isn't perfect. Nu's low health and poor defensive options mean that one hit can snowball to her death. Her zoning tools are very committal, leaving you very vulnerable on whiff and her gameplan can change wildly depending on the opponent's characters as some are easier to zone than others, requiring good matchup knowledge and decision-making.


Nu's drive allows her to summon swords from portals. These swords take many forms and can be used in many ways, allowing her to control space on the screen very effectively. Her old drive normals from the original BlazBlue series are now mapped to Nu's B buttons in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle.  
Still, if you want a zoner who is flexible in many situations, requires a lot of situational awareness and has great comeback potential, then Nu may be the one for you.

{{ProsAndCons
|intro=
|intro=
Nu-13 is a zoning character. By using her Sword Summoner Drive, she excels at controlling space. She can attack her opponents from far away and is even able to combo them on hit at these distances or do blockstrings on block. The threat of her long range attacks allows her to control the pace of a match. 
Although Nu-13 excels at attacking from long ranges and controlling space, she has very few tools in her arsenal for fighting an opponent up close. On top of this, although choosing the right tool to control space in a situation can greatly hinder an opponent's approach or punish it, choosing the wrong tool in a situation can leave you open for punishment. In order to play Nu-13, you'll need learn how to successfully create space between you and your opponent to use your long range tools and how to properly anticipate your opponent's movements.
|pros=
|pros=
*Exceptional zoning tools.
*''' Strong Neutral''': Her long range {{clr|B|B}} normals, good movement and ability to deny give her strong zoning and space control which lets her control the pace of the match.
*Strong Neutral game.
*'''Mixups''': [[#Act Parcer|Act Parcer]] allow Nu to easily set up left/right mixups with her partner from nearly half-screen, something not many characters can do. She can also pull the enemy out of the corner so they're not safe against {{keyword|crossup}}s.
*Strong mix-ups.
*''' Great Anchor''': [[#Legacy Edge|Legacy Edge]] in Resonance Blaze can allow Nu to completely turn the tide of a match and gives her awesome comeback potential.
*Act Parser.
*'''Conversions''': Nu can convert nearly any hit from any range into a full combo ending in a knockdown which also gives her strong okizeme.
*Can shoot 2B or j.5B to clash with some Distortions.
*Most combos end in a knockdown, leading to a strong Okizeme game.
*Can convert any hit into a full combo from any range.
|cons=
|cons=
*Limited offense up close due to the “B” button having a minimum range.
*''' Poor Defence''': Her slow normals for {{keyword|abare}}, mediocre {{keyword|DP}} and low health means she struggles dealing {{keyword|pressure}} and can't make many mistakes.
*Struggles to deal with heavy pressure.
*''' Limited Blockstring Options ''': Since her {{clr|B|B}} normals have dead zones, her options for blockstrings up close are limited, worsening her pressure.
*Lowest HP in the game at 16k.
*'''Combo Game''': Nu's combos are reliant on launching the opponent to get higher damage which can make her reliant on resources. Her combos are also lengthy which gives the opponent longer windows to burst.
*Has no super fast jab, unlike most of the cast.

*Lacks a useful launcher without using an assist or bar.

====== <span style="visibility:hidden;font-size:0">4A</span> ======
However, its head invul ends on the first active frame and it has low vertical range for an anti-air making it lose certain jump-ins like {{Character Label|BBTag|Mitsuru_Kirijo|label=Mitsuru's}} {{MiniMoveCard|game=BBTag|chara=Mitsuru Kirijo|input=j.B|label={{clr|2|j.B}}}}. So it's best used defensively rather than challenging other normals.

----
The main branching point in your {{keyword|block string}} due to its cancel options making it good for going for {{keyword|mix-up}}s.


Relatively safe to use this to hit confirm as it is cancellable at any point, allowing you to chain into B normals or jump cancel if the opponent pushblocks. However if the opponent pushblocks the 5A itself, the first hit of 5AA will whiff, which will leave Nu-13 very vulnerable. 5A 2A is another option for hit confirming which is safer against pushblock.
{{clr|1|5AA}} can go into jumps, throws, your other normals, and {{MiniMoveCard|game=BBTag|chara=Nu-13|input=66|label=Act Parcer}}. You can go for a high/low with {{clr|1|2A}}/{{clr|3|j.C}} or try to set up a left/right with Act Parser.

Should not be used for blockstrings as it is very whiff punishable if pushblocked. Note that unlike 5AA, 5AAA is not jump cancellable even on hit, so don't go this far into the string if you're looking to bait a burst.
If the opponent pushblocks {{clr|1|5AA}} itself, you can jump cancel to stay safe but if {{clr|1|5}}/{{clr|1|4A}} get pushblock and you cancel into {{clr|1|5AA}} you'll be very unsafe.

Travels nearly full screen (against larger characters it will connect even from full screen). Nu-13's primary tool to zone an opponent on the ground. If close enough, 5BBBB can be converted into a combo using 236C. From further away, only certain assists can be used to convert. While relatively safe to use from far away in most situations, be careful as the startup is reactable and many characters have a super that will punish it on reaction.

|description=
Your main {{keyword|zoning}} tool and {{keyword|poke}} thanks to its balance of range and speed.
 
{{clr|2|5B}} covers most of the ground and can lead to combos on hit and can lead to mixups with Act Parcer. This makes it great for stopping opponents running at you and for punishing things from afar. But as with all of Nu's {{clr|2|B}} normals, it has long recovery so try not to {{keyword|whiff}} or spam it.
 
{{clr|2|5B}} has a dead zone like her other {{clr|2|B}} normals which can make it awkward to use it in blockstrings. A consistent blockstring is {{clr|1|2A}} {{clr|1|5AA}} {{clr|1|2A}} {{clr|2|5B}} .
*Travels nearly fullscreen but against some characters like {{Character Label|BBTag|Blitztank|label=Tank}} it will connect even from fullscreen.

;{{clr|2|xBB}} - {{clr|2|xBBBBB}}
When you use {{clr|2|5B}},{{clr|2|2B}} or {{clr|2|4B}} after the initial sword pressing {{clr|2|B}} will make them all go into this auto combo so we're going over it here.


Like all Nu-13's drive normals, there is a dead zone in front of her where the move has no hitbox. At neutral, be careful of using 5B while too close to the opponent as the dead zone may cause it to whiff. For blockstrings, only use 5B if you're sure you're far enough away that the opponent will not be in the dead zone. One blockstring that consistently works even from point blank is 2A 5AA 2A 5B.
Most of the time they serve as combo filler but the actual conversions depend on distance, height and resources.

{{!}}-
You can use {{clr|3|236C}} to convert from nearly fullscreen or {{clr|2|236B}} + assist to convert from fullscreen. You can jump cancel into {{clr|2|j.5B}} and go from there depending on height. {{clr|2|5B}} is a poor starter so the damage you get won't be great but it's better than nothing.

Fires upwards at an angle. Good anti air against regular jumps. The sword reaches high enough to even reach characters who are super jumping and/or double jumping. Can be confirmed into a full combo by jump cancelling any of the hits of this string (other than the last hit) and continuing with j.B.

{{Description|8|text=j.A has a pretty large horizontal hitbox and a lot of active frames, so it's a decent air to air.

It also has hitbox behind Nu at the later portion of the attack, can be used as tricky cross-up option.
{{clr|1|j.AA}} sees little use as its {{keyword|hitbox}} isn't as large as {{clr|1|j.A}} so it can whiff if you're not close enough, {{clr|2|j.5B}} is more consistent and leads to better damage and oki.

Nu dashes forward and can cross over to the other side of the opponent.
 
This lets you easily set up left/right mixups with your assist with needing meter, a specific assist and can be done from around half screen, something not a lot of characters can do. You can also layer the left/right by going into a throw afterwards, using the assist blockstun to go for a high/low or switch to your partner to bait {{keyword|dragon punch}}es as they'll often be too far for it to reach.


When combined with an assist, cancels into Act Parser can be useful for mixups. It can be used to set up left/right mixups by having the assist hit just before or just after Nu switches sides, or simply to safely get close enough for a high/low mixup with jC or 2A/2C.  
You can also use it to escape the corner or just an unfavourable position.


Note that all cancels into this version of Act Parser are negative on block, so without the aid of an assist Nu can't use Act Parser to get a guaranteed mixup (although sometimes you can catch people sleeping and cancel a random 5B into Act Parser then throw). The one exception to this is an anti air normal (usually 2B or its followups) cancelled into forward Act Parser; in this scenario, even though the opponent recovers before you, they may not be able to land and press a fast grounded normal faster than Nu-13 can press 5A.
Take note Nu will always be minus after a forward Act Parcer so you need an assist to a mixup. However the one exception to this is an anti-air normal (usually {{clr|2|2B}} or its followups) cancelled into forward Act Parcer; in this scenario, even though the opponent recovers before you, they may not be able to land and press a fast grounded normal faster than Nu can press {{clr|1|5A}}.

Outside of that, it has little utility as rushdown or midrange characters struggle to make good use of the field and the small hitbox makes it poor for combos or punishing bursts.
*Tacks the opponent's location.
*If the opponent is hit by Nu's hitbox while placing the field, they'll float in the Gravity Seed, allowing you to start a combo

The main reason Nu makes for a great {{keyword|Anchor}} and has high comeback potential.


====== <span style="visibility:hidden;font-size:0">Legacy Edge</span> ======
Legacy Edge's main use is during [[BBTag/Mechanics#Resonance_Blaze|Resonance Blaze.]] The lockdown lets Nu do many normals which combined with Resonance's increased chip for supers allows her to do '''massive {{keyword|chip damage}}''' dealing at least 30% chip, often more. All you have to do is do 236X and cancel it immediately into {{clr|2|236B}}+{{clr|3|C}}. Nu can do this from even fullscreen and/or if the opponent pushblocks and it's all a true blockstrings so they must respect it. It cannot be understated just how strong this is and it should be your main goal during Resonance Blaze.

{{Description|7|text=* No longer stays active if Nu gets hit like it does in CF
* Can setup into Supra Rage on air blocking opponents
* So positive that she's probably going to run up and start mixup during it
* Remains active if you tag out


It is possible to combo into this super using 2C. Combos using Legacy Edge don't do significantly more damage than combos using EX Sickle Storm, but they do have more corner carry.
Outside of Resonance, it can be used for pressure as Nu can go for multiple mixups as well for corner carry in combos (although if you don't corner carry use {{clr|3|236C}} instead).


At high resonance levels this can deal extremely high chip damage, leading into a blockstring that builds more meter for another Legacy Edge. Outside of resonance there are no true blockstrings into Legacy Edge so the opponent can always input their own super post flash. In resonance, however, any version of Sickle Storm can be cancelled into Legacy Edge, which IS a true blockstring if input correctly. This allows the Nu-13 player to do true blockstrings using as many Legacy Edges as they can afford. There are also some characters, such as Waldstein, who simply have no answer to a long range 5B cancelled into Legacy Edge other than to block it.
Finally, {{clr|2|236B}}+{{clr|3|C}} doesn't have invincibility for all of the startup but it does have some letting go through projectile attacks so you can use it for anti-zoning.

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

Nu-13 is a fast zoner who can control the pace of the match and convert her zoning into rushdown.

Nu's BBBTag Nu 5B.pngGuardAllStartup13RecoveryTotal: 41Advantage-5 normals are fast, long range projectiles that she can use to stop approaches and keep the opponent away from her. On hit, she can convert these hits into combos which, while low-damaging lead to good oki. On block however she can transition from zoning into powerful mixups thanks to Act ParcerBBTag Nu ActParser.pngGuardStartupRecovery41Advantage-.

She also has good movement thanks to the aforementioned Act Parcer, above-average run speed and great backdash which lets her quickly reposition and run around her opponents in neutral.

However, she isn't perfect. Nu's low health and poor defensive options mean that one hit can snowball to her death. Her zoning tools are very committal, leaving you very vulnerable on whiff and her gameplan can change wildly depending on the opponent's characters as some are easier to zone than others, requiring good matchup knowledge and decision-making.

Still, if you want a zoner who is flexible in many situations, requires a lot of situational awareness and has great comeback potential, then Nu may be the one for you.

Pros
Cons
  • Strong Neutral: Her long range B normals, good movement and ability to deny give her strong zoning and space control which lets her control the pace of the match.
  • Mixups: Act Parcer allow Nu to easily set up left/right mixups with her partner from nearly half-screen, something not many characters can do. She can also pull the enemy out of the corner so they're not safe against crossup Attacking your opponent after changing which horizontal side you are on, typically by jumping over them.s.
  • Great Anchor: Legacy Edge in Resonance Blaze can allow Nu to completely turn the tide of a match and gives her awesome comeback potential.
  • Conversions: Nu can convert nearly any hit from any range into a full combo ending in a knockdown which also gives her strong okizeme.
  • Poor Defence: Her slow normals for abare An attack during the opponent's pressure, intended to interrupt it., mediocre DP Dragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion. and low health means she struggles dealing pressure To attack the opponent continuously and leave little room for counter attacks. and can't make many mistakes.
  • Limited Blockstring Options : Since her B normals have dead zones, her options for blockstrings up close are limited, worsening her pressure.
  • Combo Game: Nu's combos are reliant on launching the opponent to get higher damage which can make her reliant on resources. Her combos are also lengthy which gives the opponent longer windows to burst.


Drive: Sword Summoner
Nu's drive allows her to summon swords from portals. These swords take many forms and can be used in many ways, allowing her to control space on the screen very effectively. Her old drive normals from the original BlazBlue series are now mapped to Nu's B buttons in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle.

Nu's close range anti-air A grounded attack that hits the opponent out of the air, best used to stop IAD An air dash performed from a standing position as quickly and as low to the ground as possible from a jump. Done by inputting 956 754, and depending on the game, using a dash macro right after a jump.s in Footsies A complicated, often nebulous term that refers to the battle for controlling the space in front of you, often by using good pokes. In essence, you are trying to get to a range you like, while trying to deny your opponent getting to a range that they like. How you do this varies wildly based on the game, but it often involves using long range attacks to pester your opponent as they are trying to walk around. This dance of playing mind games with your feet is the source of the term's name. range thanks to its early head invul Short for InvulnerabilityA state where a character cannot be hit. A common component of reversal moves..

However, its head invul ends on the first active frame and it has low vertical range for an anti-air making it lose certain jump-ins like  Mitsuru's j.BBBTag Mitsuru jB.pngGuardHighStartup11Recovery25Advantage-. So it's best used defensively rather than challenging other normals.

4A also serve as a good starter as on hit it leads to full combos and on block has almost every cancel option making it good for starting pressure To attack the opponent continuously and leave little room for counter attacks..

  • Cancels into throw and jump
  • If you input 5A after using 4A, you'll get 5AA instead.

Nu's main combo and pressure starter thanks to its good scaling and cancel into 2A.

  • Fastest normal (tied with 2A)
  • Jump and throw cancelable
  • 5A and 2A can be used a combined total of 3 times per string

The main branching point in your block string A series of multiple attacks that work well against a blocking opponent. Generally, a block string will be composed of several plus on block or cancelable attacks performed in quick sequence. When blocked, these will slowly push your character out of range and prevent the opponent from counter-attacking, which makes them a very good default, low-risk option when trying to apply offense. due to its cancel options making it good for going for mix-up To perform a maneuver that forces a defending opponent to choose between two or more options. If the opponent chooses incorrectly, then they are hit by an attack. There are many different types of mix-ups such as crossup(left/right), high/low, and strike/throw.s.

5AA can go into jumps, throws, your other normals, and Act ParcerBBTag Nu ActParser.pngGuardStartupRecovery41Advantage-. You can go for a high/low with 2A/j.C or try to set up a left/right with Act Parser.

If the opponent pushblocks 5AA itself, you can jump cancel to stay safe but if 5/4A get pushblock and you cancel into 5AA you'll be very unsafe.


Combo filler solo, a decent blockstrings when combined with an Active Switch, thanks to its long duration.

5AAA helps push the opponent far enough in combos to use B normals and can be used as an ender at times when that won't work. but has long recovery like 5AA and can't be jump cancelled (so you can't bait burst).


5AAAA should only be used for Cross Raid as 5AAA combos into 5B always lead into better damage and oki.

Usually, this is a far-reaching and safe normal move with little risk. thanks to its balance of range and speed.

5B covers most of the ground and can lead to combos on hit and can lead to mixups with Act Parcer. This makes it great for stopping opponents running at you and for punishing things from afar. But as with all of Nu's B normals, it has long recovery so try not to whiff An attack that completely misses the opponent, such as when the opponent is out of range of the attack. or spam it.

  • Travels nearly fullscreen but against some characters like  Tank it will connect even from fullscreen.

xBB - xBBBBB

When you use 5B,2B or 4B after the initial sword pressing B will make them all go into this auto combo so we're going over it here.

Most of the time they serve as combo filler but the actual conversions depend on distance, height and resources.

You can use 236C to convert from nearly fullscreen or 236B + assist to convert from fullscreen. You can jump cancel into j.5B and go from there depending on height. 5B is a poor starter so the damage you get won't be great but it's better than nothing.

The 2nd & 3rd sword pushes away and the 4th vacuums but if you input the 3rd hit as xBB2B the 3rd hit will vacuum and the 4th will push away. The final hit tracks the opponent and knocks down leaving you in a good position for more zoning and sometimes it's the only way of getting oki.

800 High 22 3 24 -10 B

Universal Overhead An attack that the opponent must block high.. Like the most Blazblue and Persona characters, it's decently fast but is punishable on block. It has better range than most of them though.

5C is mainly used as a combo ender as it leads to safejump A very well-timed jump attack on a character who is rising from a knockdown. Your goal is to attack extremely close to when you land so that, if the character performs an invincible reversal attack, you will land and be able to block. The opponent is then forced to block your jumping attack, since reversaling doesn't work, which will give you some nice pressure and hopefully an opening.s. It's also a servicable mixup option when your too close for TK j.C

Nu-13 is among the rarest characters in the game to be capable of (true) comboing into 5C, but the routes are limited to:

5A 5AA 5AAA 5C (optimal) or 5A 2A 5A 5AA 5AAA 5C.

If not at all, then use this sparingly since there are a multitude of better ways to deal unburstable damage. This being an unorthodox, meter pay-out method.

If the opponent chooses incorrectly, then they are hit by an attack. There are many different types of mix-ups such as crossup(left/right), high/low, and strike/throw.s.

2A has the same startup as 5A but has more range and faster recovery making it better for starting pressure. Just remember that depending on your distance 5A might whiff when done after 2A.

It serves as decent 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. on the opponent wake up The state and animation a character goes through when they rise from being knocked down.

Another anti-air as its amazing range lets you catch opponents even if they super/double jumping.

2B can usually be converted into a full combo by jump cancelling into j.5B. However, if the opponent is very high and very far when 2B lands, you may have no choice but to do the full autocombo to get oki.

If the opponent is too close to use 2B or they IAD, you're better off using 4A, 4B or Supra RageBBTag Nu SupraRage.pngGuardAir UnblockableStartup20Recovery8+40LAdvantage-31.

A great air-to-air A jumping attack that hits the opponent out of the air and sadly your best air-to-ground due to its good horizontal and bad vertical range.

Its slightly disjointed hitbox A particular type of hitbox that has no nearby associated hurtbox, enabling attacks to have certain areas that cannot be hit by an opponent's attacks in return. and many active frames make it strong at controlling air space and protecting yourself when retreating like after an instant air back dash. It also has a hitbox behind her on the later active frames so you can crossup Attacking your opponent after changing which horizontal side you are on, typically by jumping over them..

j.A is the only air attack Nu has that doesn't stop her momentum which makes it jump in she has. It also has long recovery making it bad on whiff unless you land with it and low hitstun which can make combos harder. This low hitstun however can lead to it working as a safejump against characters with guard point An attack that automatically blocks certain attacks. Examples of this include Bang's Drive attacks, Baiken's Suzuran (63214K), and Nappa's Too Bad (214S). dps like  Tager 'sBBCF Iron Tager A+B+C+D 2.pngGuardAir UnblockableStartup16Recovery46Advantage-32

A good zoning tool as its range and angle are perfect for stopping grounded approaches.

j.B is similar to 5B but can cover different angles but in exchange doesn't go fullscreen. It's still good for covering yourself when retreating and can even stop airborne approaches depending on height and distance.

  • Has a dead zone in front of Nu where the move has no hitbox.

xBB-xBBBBB

Pressing B after j.B and j.2B will make them both gointo this autocombo.

This is mostly similar the to grounded version in that it serves as combo filler. Your main goal in combos is to launch the opponent so you can from 5BBBB>j.BBBB and go from there as this leads to good damage and can be done from far away.

Like the ground version, the 3rd hit pushes and the 4th pulls but if you do xBB2B the 3rd will pull and the 4th push.

You'll usually cancel the fourth hit into j.C as it deals more damage and can be super cancelled but if the enemy is too far or you want to send them away, then complete the full autocombo.

Your main combo ender for air combos as well as a mixup tool.

It deals more damage than the last hit of the j.B auto combo and can be super-cancelled for more damage. It also sees use in Cross Combo where it can be looped with an assist for good damage and gives a good opportunity to switch to your partner mid-combo.

When done immediately after jumping, j.C is a 21frame overhead, 1 frame faster than 5C. However, it requires either an assist or Legacy EdgeBBTag Nu LegacyEdge.pngGuardAllStartup16+(41 Flash)+10RecoveryTotal: 69

j.2B is used in situations where j.B would be useful but would whiff due to the angle like stopping grounded approaches. In particular, this is useful for meterless conversions off 5B, since on crouching opponents 5BBBB jump cancel j.B tends to whiff.

j.2B can also bait anti-air A grounded attack that hits the opponent out of the airs due to the angle and since it halts your air momentum but due to the recovery and low damage, don't do this often.

Universal Dragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion. although in Nu's case, it is not a very good one.

Supra Rage has 20 frames of startup making it lose easily 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. normals and stagger pressure The use of intentionally delaying gatlings or cancels in order to create frame traps with the intent of catching your opponent mashing or jumping. Loses to reversals.. This also makes it a worse anti-air as it can be easily baited. Combined with her low health, this is a risky option(more so than other DP's).

Still, Nu needs as many defensive options as she can get so don't forget it altogether.

The air version's only use is countering burst An invincible attack that can be performed during hitstun to prevent an opponent from performing a full combo. as j.BBBBB, j.C and j.214B+C are all better air combo enders.

236B 1700 Low 19 Until Hit Total: 54 -5 P1
236A

Nu's primary combo ender since it sends them away, giving you a good position for zoning. Against airborne opponents, it can even lead to a safejump A very well-timed jump attack on a character who is rising from a knockdown. Your goal is to attack extremely close to when you land so that, if the character performs an invincible reversal attack, you will land and be able to block. The opponent is then forced to block your jumping attack, since reversaling doesn't work, which will give you some nice pressure and hopefully an opening..

It's also a good way to end your B normal blockstrings as though it's unsafe up close, the frame advantage improves the further away you are.


236B

Nu summons the sword farther away and it comes towards her. This makes it hit opponents farther away faster making it a better combo ending at long range. Just remember that you're bringing your opponent closer to you. When combined with an assist, this move lets you get combos from fullscreen B normals.

It can also be used for oki in the corner as Nu can be up to +20 on block and it goes behind her, letting it catch opponents that tech past her. It can even lead to an unblockable when combined with an Active Switch and a fast overhead.

A powerful zoning and neutral tool when used correctly but can lead to your death when used incorrectly.

214B's long startup makes it a death sentence solo as the opponent can just run up and hit you or use a fullscreen attack like  Ragna's Carnage ScissorsBBTag Ragna the Bloodedge 236B+C.pngGuardAllStartup9+(42 Flash)+2~12Recovery58Advantage-43

Act Parcer is key to Nu's gameplan as it lets you create mixups and stay mobile while zoning.

All versions travel set distances so experiment in training mode to get a sense of the spacing.

  • 5AAABBTag Nu 5AAA.pngGuardAllStartup17Recovery24Advantage-6
  • All B normals excluding the 5th of the B autocombo.

X > 66

Nu dashes forward and can cross over to the other side of the opponent.

This lets you easily set up left/right mixups with your assist with needing meter, a specific assist and can be done from around half screen, something not a lot of characters can do. You can also layer the left/right by going into a throw afterwards, using the assist blockstun to go for a high/low or switch to your partner to bait dragon punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion.es as they'll often be too far for it to reach.

You can also use it to escape the corner or just an unfavourable position.

Take note Nu will always be minus after a forward Act Parcer so you need an assist to a mixup. However the one exception to this is an anti-air normal (usually 2B or its followups) cancelled into forward Act Parcer; in this scenario, even though the opponent recovers before you, they may not be able to land and press a fast grounded normal faster than Nu can press 5A.


X > 44

Nu jumps up and away.

Its fast speed lets you use it to run away while zoning as Nu recovers in the air letting her use air B normals. It's also the closest thing you have to be able to jump cancel B normals on block so you're not gonna use forward Act Parcer to mixup, then use this to maintain distance.


j.X > 66 and j.X > 44

These are pretty much air dashes that can you cancel into so you can use them like the grounded versions.

The forward version is a good way to transition from zoning The act of denying the opponent the ability to approach, jump, or other movement options. to rushdown Style of play where you constantly attack the opponent in close range fighting, never giving them an opportunity to retaliate. like j.B > 66 > j.A. It can also pass through the opponent so you can still set up left/rights with assists but since it travels less distance than the ground version, you'll have to be closer.

The backward version lets you run away to keep zoning especially combined with the ground version (e.g 5B>44> j.B>44> j.B )

236C

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
1250 Low 13 Until Hit Total: 54 +3 P1

One of Nu's best moves thanks for what it does for her combos and pressure.

236C is similar to 236A except it does 2 hits, causes a wall bounce and is plus When you are able to freely act, but your opponent cannot (usually because they are still trapped in block stun from your attack). Being plus (or "positive") in a fighting game is quite strong; it means you always have a headstart on your next attack, even if it's only by a very slim margin.. This makes it great for your combos as you can convert any hit into a strong knockdown including long-range 5B making your zoning more threatening.

It being plus on block lets you reset your pressure and go for a strike/throw mixup or just keep your opponent blocking.

214C

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery On-Block Attribute Invuln
2600 All 32 Until Hit Total: 64 +3 P1

A decent zoning and neutral tool to use now and again.

214C has the best attributes of the A and B version. As such you can use it for the same things as 212B like covering an approach but you can use it with solo with decent safety especially if you cancel a B normal into it.

You can use for it okizeme From Japanese "起き攻め". Attacking an opponent about to wake up after they were knocked down, usually with meaty attacks or mix-ups. in the corner after a 2C knockdown as a knowledge check A strategy or attack which tests the opponent's knowledge of a given matchup. If an opponent doesn't know how to deal with the knowledge check presented, the check is usually repeated until victory is achieved. as if the opponent neutral or back tech, Nu will be plus on block and can get a high damage combo on hit. But if they forward you'll lose.

  • Has the A version's startup and the B version's range and recovery.
  • Nu's best combo starter damage wise, use it to punish whiffed/blocked supers and DP's.

Nu's go-to combo and blockstring extender assist.

It goes about 60% of the screen letting you use it in cases where other 5Ps would fail and is also her best assist for punishing bursts.

You can also use it as a zoning/neutral thanks to its range and the fact it moves Nu backwards making it pretty safe.

6P

Spike Chaser

2300 All (18)+67 Total: (18)+99 +3 P

A great assist for neutral and covering your partner during attacks.

6P has all the same uses as 214B those being covering approaches which is great for rush down, forcing your opponent to jump which you can then anit-air, block it which gives your great frame advantage to mixup as well as making unsafe attacks safer on block. This is just a great neutral tool for characters that lack long-range options like  Chie.

It can also be used for oki as when timed right it can cover back and neutral tech To recover from a knockdown or air hitstun state, usually by pressing a button. letting your point cover forward tech.

It's the only assist Nu-13 has that can hit OTG The act of hitting the opponent when they are knocked down. Short for "off the ground" or "on the ground." so in some combos it is the only move you can use to extend them.

  • Like  Noel's 6P assist, pushing the screen sideways will push Nu with it, allowing you to adjust where the swords come out even after pressing the button.

4P is a great assist for other zoners like  Vatista as it makes it harder for the opponent to punish you or close the gap. You can also use it and switch to Nu, which also helps her zoning.

Outside of that, it has little utility as rushdown or midrange characters struggle to make good use of the field and the small hitbox makes it poor for combos or punishing bursts.

  • Tacks the opponent's location.
  • If the opponent is hit by Nu's hitbox while placing the field, they'll float in the Gravity Seed, allowing you to start a combo

The main reason Nu makes for a great Anchor In a 3v3 fighting game, Anchor refers to the 3rd character up to fight out of the 3 selected by the player. and has high comeback potential.

Legacy Edge's main use is during Resonance Blaze. The lockdown lets Nu do many normals which combined with Resonance's increased chip for supers allows her to do massive chip damage Damage incurred when blocking an attack. Typically, only Special Attacks and Super Attacks have chip damage, but there are exceptions. dealing at least 30% chip, often more. All you have to do is do 236X and cancel it immediately into 236B+C. Nu can do this from even fullscreen and/or if the opponent pushblocks and it's all a true blockstrings so they must respect it. It cannot be understated just how strong this is and it should be your main goal during Resonance Blaze.

Outside of Resonance, it can be used for pressure as Nu can go for multiple mixups as well for corner carry in combos (although if you don't corner carry use 236C instead).

Finally, 236B+C doesn't have invincibility for all of the startup but it does have some letting go through projectile attacks so you can use it for anti-zoning.

Your best reversal To perform an attack as soon as possible after getting knocked down or leaving hitstun/blockstun.\DP Dragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion. and standard super ender when you need extra damage.

With her mediocre DP and 9 frame normals, 214B+C is one of your only defensive options. However, this also makes it fairly predictable so you'll need to be reserved when considering this against any opponent whose offense is even partially careful.

Outside of that, it's also used to end combos. The damage is pretty good but the oki you get afterwards is poor so it's best used when it will kill the opponent or leave them on death's door. On top of that, its short duration makes it poor for use DHC A term that describes when a character performs a super attack in a team game and tags into another characters super., especially for cross combos, you might have to switch to your partner and have them use their super first.
