Overview
Overview

 Es  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.

Pros
Cons
  • 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, quick recovery, 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.
  • Although she can deal solid damage she has 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.
  • A lot of her attack have high recover frame on whiff and block, such as her 2B, 214C, 214A so try your best to not whiff her attack too much

Es has attacks that create an afterimage called a crest. After a delay, which varies from move to move, the crest detonates and hit anything in the space it covered.

Attacks that create crests: 5B, j.C, and 4P.

5A: Big and fast and is your best friend as Es 5AA: Used mostly as combo and blockstring filler 5AAA: At certain distance, this move will whiff even if 5AA connects

  • Off of air hit, you can combo 5B after this move
  • Also mostly combo and blockstring filler, but is very useful in grounded combos to gatling 5B when the opponent is in the air

5AAAA: Standard autocombo ender

  • Cannot follow up this normal with other normals, specials, or supers
  • Mostly unused, very minus and doesn't give much reward on hit either.

5BB 1700, 1000 All 27 6 30 -12 B, P1

  • 5B is big, but slow startup. Puts a crest on the field that detonates near immediately.

This can be a good tool to frame trap during pressure. It's also useful because the crest lingers for a little bit, so if they pushblock this move, they can't run in immediately or they get hit by the exploding crest.

As a starter on a standing opponent, can connect a 214A afterwards to do a full combo


  • 5BB is jump cancellable on hit

Since this is jump cancellable on hit, you can do 5BB jB jC as a combo ender which, in the corner, covers all tech options and gives good oki

Otherwise, is mostly combo or blockstring filler.

Crest Followup 1500 All 22 8 Total: Until L+19 P1

Good vertical range and decent horizontal range. Hitbox does come up slower than some other DPs, which means this move might get blocked if you try to use it as an antiair.

You can press another button on hit to activate the followup, but the followup isn't available on block or whiff.

The followup can sometimes whiff even if the first part of the move hits. The followup has a very long recovery window as well, which can lead to you being punished if the first part hits but the followup whiffs, so be careful about doing the followup.

Generally you want to use this though because it leads to better advantage for you.

Powered Up Shot 2500 All Until Hit -2 P2

  • A version projectile moves almost immediately after the projectile comes out, but doesn't travel fullscreen
  • B version projectile lingers at Es for a little bit, then moves forward

Very good fireballs. Pretty big and fast and can be really annoying for characters to get around.


  • The Powered Up Shot is done by doing the B version followed by the A version quickly

The two fireballs become one really big one. It's larger than both the A and B versions, and while the A and B version will clash once with most regular projectiles, this one will pass through most projectiles or clash with EX projectiles.

Very strong and annoying tool for people to deal with. If you setup first, you can use this to invalidate zoners trying to do their thing fullscreen/midscreen.

  • A version is sent diagonally down
  • B version is sent horizontally forward

Also a very annoying tool for people to deal with. The projectiles are still good and by mixing up the two, you can catch people either running in with the A version or people jumping at you with the B version.

This move can be TKed, but even TKed, this move will send Es pretty high up in the air. If you want to do the B versions close to the ground, you'll have to jump and then when coming down, input the special. No TK j236B sadly :(

Charged 2200 High 36 3 13 +3 H 9~38 FT

  • Overhead

While it is an overhead, it is pretty reactable and it's uncharged version doesn't give much reward on hit. The uncharged version is not seen very often, even in combos.

The charged version does have some uses, since it causes a splat on air hit and allows for 5A to combo afterwards. The most common way of comboing this tool is 5B>214[B] on an airborne opponent. The charged version is also slightly plus, which makes it good for reseting pressure. Note, though, that it can be mashed out of.

2000 All 11 4 24+13L -22 B

Es moves forward and does one slash. This can be useful if you've exhausted all your normal cancels on block so you can do this with an assist to continue pressure. Otherwise, isn't that useful for pressure.

Most combos that use an assist will have the assist be called during 214C~X, allowing for a pickup afterwards.


  • The followup hit launches the opponent on hit

Cannot continue a combo after hitting with this solo, unless you hit them very high in the air. You can get a safe jump off it (assuming they don't tech away).

On block, is extremely minus and is not recommended in blockstrings without an assist, and even with an assist, 214C is probably just better.

2000 All (18)+40 Until Hit Total: (18)+69 -2 P2

  • Great for covering approaches
  • Somewhat useful for pressure

This partner skill has Es fire the staggered version of her Breunor projectile. She does the A then B version, however unlike when used on point they do not combine. 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 wary 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.

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.

  • Big projectile super that hits fullscreen
  • Is full invul on startup

This can be really useful in fullscreen situations where you read an airdash in or someone throwing a fireball. Can also be used to punish other certain fullscreen supers. Can be punished on block if done right next to someone, but can only be punished fullscreen by something like another fullscreen super.

  • Es dashes forward and, if she connects, lunges through them
  • Full invul on startup

Doesn't quite travel fullscreen, but does still move forward very far. Is not as minus as it seems, so people might drop their punishes on this move.

This move is also Es's DHC and is also very useful as one. It has very little recovery on block, which means you can do something like Gordeau's 214BC, DHC into Es, and Es will recover while Gordeau is still doing the super, allowing you to run mixups while Gordeau is doing his super.
