BBCF/Carl Clover

Overview

Carl is a puppet character focusing on strong setplay and amazing mixup potential. Carl's Drive is tied to his doll, Nirvana. Moving Nirvana and using her attacks drains her the Doll Gauge. With Nirvana, Carl is capable of amazing pressure, looping unblockables and strong okizeme. Carl must track Nirvana's position at all times, as he strongly relies on her for neutral and offense. Without Nirvana, Carl's weaknesses become much more apparent. He has low life and no true reversal. Additionally his grounded movement is rather committal without Nirvana. This means that Carl must play around Nirvana properly at all times.

Carl is a difficult character requiring tight execution and good awareness. Thankfully, this comes with a high skill ceiling. Carl rewards players with a strong offensive gameplan and solid neutral.

Carl's Drive revolves around controlling Nirvana.

Hold the D button to activate Nirvana, release D to deactivate.
While active, she can move forward by holding any forward/backward direction (including diagonals).
Nirvana will attack by releasing the D button while either holding a direction or after completing the inputs for one of her special moves.
Note that the directional inputs required for moves is based on Carl's current facing, not necessarily Nirvana's. For example: If Carl is facing right and Nirvana is facing left, pressing D, inputting 623 and releasing D will give you Con Brio, not Volante.

Nirvana has her own life bar. It goes down when Nirvana is active, uses an attack, or gets hit by the opponent. If Nirvana's life bar reaches zero, she will be disabled and slowly recover health, and is unusable until her health is full (plus a small recovery animation).

Other than her Distortion Drives and Astral Heat, Nirvana's moves act independently of Carl, meaning Carl is free to move while Nirvana is attacking. However, if Carl blocks or gets hit, most of Nirvana's moves will stop and she will deactivate, and she can't be activated until Carl recovers from the blockstun or hitstun.

Carl's overdrive grants Nirvana a power up. Nirvana recovers faster from her moves and many of her moves gain new properties. Nirvana's walk speed is also faster and her meter recovery speed is also increased. Carl also has access to a new distortion drive during OD.

Damage	GuardHow this attack can be guarded. Throws have their throw range listed instead.	StartupHow many frames the attack needs to go through in order to reach its active frames. The listed startup frame coincides with the move's first active frame.	ActiveHow many frames where there is a hitbox that can hit an opponent. The first active frame occurs on the listed startup frame.	RecoveryHow many frames that the character must go through after an attack's active frames to automatically go back to a neutral stance, or the total duration of the move if it has no hitbox/creates projectiles.	Frame AdvHow many frames the attacker's recovery ends before the defender's blockstun ends if the attack is blocked. A positive value indicates that the attacker recovers first, while a negative value indicates that the defender recovers first. This value usually assumes that the attack's first active frame (of each hit, if multi-hit) is blocked.	On ODRThe difference between the attacker's total animation length and the period the opponent is in overdrive raid. This frame advantage is based off the assumption that both players input during the hitstop of a prior move, so that this attack and ODR start on the same frame.	AttributeSome attacks are invulnerable to attacks with specific attributes. This notes what attributes each attack possesses. H - Head B - Body F - Foot P - Projectile. Independent projectiles will have their Durability level listed, e.g. a projectile with Durability level 2 will show P2 T - Throw D - Doll attack, such as Carl's or Relius' doll Burst - Burst, which has its own unique attribute	Invuln

Near symmetrical hitbox makes it ideal for crossups.
On hit/block, Carl bounces and recovers in the air, animation 26.
Combo stable due to its relativly good damage and ability to cancel into j.214C to get back onto the ground fast.

Drive Moves

Many of Nirvana's attacks have much less recovery and are more comboable when Carl activates his Overdrive. The major changes will be defined in brief detail in the move description. For the frame data of a specific OD-enhanced move, please refer to Carl's frame data. All drive moves may also be performed when Carl is airborne. Doll activation / deactivation has startup and needs to be accounted for!

Multihit attack to keep your opponent pinned down blocking, or to deal decent damage during combos.
Very expensive move.

Nirvana's new move replacing her old overhead punch, meaning Carl has much less access to unblockable setups now, but instead gains a very powerful combo move that you can use to force mixups on your opponent.

Nirvana runs forward with her arms raised, if she catches your opponent, they will get slammed to the ground for a hard knockdown with no bounce, meaning you need to use the throw animation time to get carl into position quickly.
Cannot catch airborne opponents.
Combo throw, unlike previous versions, this move can be comboed into and cannot be throw rejected under any circumstances. However it does not gain 100% minimum damage
Despite being a throw this can actually be blocked for some reason

Dodge move used to switch sides with your opponent or get out of some situations where you might get separated from Ada .
The A version Can pass through opponents from frame 1-18 while the B version Can pass through opponents from frame 1-24 but be careful since you still can be throw out of both versions.
The A version is Projectile invul from frame 1-16, while the B version has head and upper Body invul from frame 1-30
When used when Nirvana is attacking, can be used to cross up your opponent by forcing them to swap the direction they're blocking in
Generous Head and Body invulnerability on the B version, while it isn't projectile invulnerable like the A version, it can still low profile a lot of projectile attacks.
Carl is in a Counterhit state throughout both moves.

Carl has total animation 10+(40 Flash)+69 on the ground and 10+(40 Flash)+53 in the air;

Not the most damaging Distortion Drive, but it doesn't need to be. Often used on block to basically force Carl's opponent to stay still and block while Carl can freely try a number of mixup options to try and open them up. Be wary that you aren't completely impervious to damage while in this state since a number of moves can both hit Carl and launch the player to safety if timed correctly.

2500 [3000]	Mid	1+(103 Flash)+16	6	124	-	B	-

Carl has total animation 1+(103 Flash)+42 on the ground and 1+(103 Flash)+36 in the air. Both ground and air versions have Invul 1~1 All

Nirvana does one big slow uppercut, launches opponent very high
Very easy to block on reaction, so best left for a big damage combo ender.

Damage	GuardHow this attack can be guarded. Throws have their throw range listed instead.	StartupHow many frames the attack needs to go through in order to reach its active frames. The listed startup frame coincides with the move's first active frame.	ActiveHow many frames where there is a hitbox that can hit an opponent. The first active frame occurs on the listed startup frame.	RecoveryHow many frames that the character must go through after an attack's active frames to automatically go back to a neutral stance, or the total duration of the move if it has no hitbox/creates projectiles.	Frame AdvHow many frames the attacker's recovery ends before the defender's blockstun ends if the attack is blocked. A positive value indicates that the attacker recovers first, while a negative value indicates that the defender recovers first. This value usually assumes that the attack's first active frame (of each hit, if multi-hit) is blocked.	On ODRThe difference between the attacker's total animation length and the period the opponent is in overdrive raid. This frame advantage is based off the assumption that both players input during the hitstop of a prior move, so that this attack and ODR start on the same frame.

Very similar to Relius' Vol Tedo Distortion Drive
Only available during Overdrive
Nirvana cannot be interrupted during the move
First hit Minimum Damage 10%. Second hit Minimum Damage 25%.
Carl Immediately begins recovery animation on block for 46F

One of the few Overdrive-only distortion drives. Nothing particularly exciting, but it does make for a very highly damaging combo ender.

Carl's only reversal option, can be his only way to get out of trouble when isolated from Nirvana.
Behaves like all Exceed Accels

Nirvana teleports in front of Carl and opens up a portal which contains the hitbox that starts the move.
If it fails, Nirvana's gauge is depleted entirely.
