Damage GuardHow this attack can be guarded. Throws have their throw range listed instead. StartupShows how many frame that the corresponding move needs to go through in order to reach its active frames. ActiveShows how many frames where there is a hurtbox, AKA the hitbox where if the opponent touches it, he/she will take damage. Occurs after Startup. RecoveryShows how many frames that the character must go through after its active frames to automatically go back to a neutral stance. On BlockThe difference between the attacker's recovery and the period that the opponent is in blockstun. This Frame Advantage value is based off the fact that the very first active frame touches the opponent. Throws list the amount of Frame Advantage upon successfully throwing the opponent. On Hit Invuln

  • 2 hit natural combo
  • 2nd hit does NOT cancel, only the first hit can

Combos into 236H on first hit, useful in combos to extend into 214X. No longer combos on second hit CH, and you'll lose your turn on regular hit. Otherwise a pretty decent pressure button due to its range and forward momentum. Despite being -5 on block the only character who can actually punish it is Belial himself, using 2L. Still an extremely strong normal in neutral. Allows combos that would otherwise be impossible, thanks to Belial moving forward an absurd distance during its startup.

Belial's projectile. Overall an extremely versatile tool.

236L goes forward and is used like a standard projectile, or to control space by transitioning into Everyone's A Little Crooked.

236M goes upward at about a 40 degree angle from Belial. Used to control air space occasionally, and sometimes to reset pressure, but never without the follow-up.

236H follows the same trajectory as 236L, and has three hits instead of one. What makes it unique to the other two versions is its ability to transition into Everyone's A Little Crooked even on hit and block, making it an extremely strong tool for midscreen combos and extending pressure from a frame trap. The H followup only combos on crouching opponents.

On Hit Invuln
L
M
H

Goetia followup which transforms the projectile into a spinning scythe that hits multiple times. The scythe takes a (very short) moment to spin up after transforming, during which the projectile does not have a hitbox. L followup causes the scythe to move forward, M followup causes the scythe to move backward, and H followup causes the scythe to decelerate and eventually spin in place.

In addition to the universal forward/backwards/stop commands, the L and M followups cause the scythe to move vertically up or down depending on which version of Goetia was initially used. For example, the forward moving L Goetia cancelled into L followup will cause the scythe to move up as well as forwards, while M Goetia into L followup will cause the scythe to move down as well as forwards. The specifics are as follows:

  • The L and M followups to L and H Goetia cause the projectile to move forwards & up and backwards & up respectively
  • The L and M followups to M Goetia cause the projectile to move forwards & down and backwards & down respectively
  • The H followups to all versions of Goetia do not affect the scythe's vertical positioning

The L and H followups push the opponent slightly on hit and block, while the M followup vacuums opponents towards Belial. The L and M followups hit 3 times, while the H followup hits 5 times.

Belial's reversal. One of the best DPs in the game.

623L is a standard DP with less air time than others, giving characters who thrive on air combos worse punishes.

623M has no invulnerability and only hits on the way down, but is plus on block. Can be used as a fakeout for people expecting the L version, but don't expect a good player to fall for it, as it can quite easily be interrupted with DP or even 2H on reaction. It can also be meatied to be a maximum of +7 on block while having 11 frames of recovery.

623H reintroduces the invulnerability and adds a follow-up hit for significantly stronger okizeme and damage, making it a strong combo ender in many situations.

An advancing strike. If it hits from close range, it will grab the opponent and do more damage.

214L is a combo ender that sees usage when you're too far for 236H/623H to hit, or if those specials are on cooldown. Can also be used as a frame trap, but it'll lose you your turn.

214M is also a combo ender, but can only be comboed into from c.H or full autocombo on crouching hit.

214H launches the opponent and combos from basically any normal, leading to massive damage in corner. Post-236H nerf it's undoubtedly your best corner combo starter.
