Overview
Overview

Millia is a very versatile character with arguably the best okizeme and mixups in the game thanks to her Tandem Top and Secret Garden specials.

She is the 2nd fastest character in the game below Chipp, but has 2 airdashes. Her Turbo Fall and Silent Force specials, as well as her aerial Force Break Pretty Maze, allow her to alter her trajectory and position in the air in ways which can be difficult to follow or predict. Her Silent Force (Pin) is a fast traveling projectile that - when combined with her very high mobility options - can make it very difficult for an opponent to anti-air or approach her. This projectile is what keeps the opponent guessing in neutral, helps her get in close, and start her oppressive rushdown once she's there.

However, Millia has the 2nd worst defense of the cast, and will take heavier damage from hits compared to most characters. She also lacks a meterless reversal out of pressure, so you will be more dependent on defensive options like Instant Blocking, Dead Angle Attack, or backdash to escape. You will need to move around constantly and avoid getting hit while fishing for hits yourself to secure a knockdown and begin your real offense. Managing your pin and movement effectively, as well as developing flexible ways to confirm stray hits into knockdown, are central to her effectiveness.

 Millia Rage  Millia Rage is a mobile offensive character with a variety of strong tools for controlling neutral. Once she secures a knockdown, she can run extremely potent okizeme, which can loop into itself to create a seemingly never-ending vaccum of offense that grinds the opponent down.

Pros
Cons
  • Amazing High/Low Mixup Game: Powerful high/low mixup options with cross-ups involved, on top of her extra mobility options.
  • Highly Flexible Okizeme: With the help of H Tandem Top (Disc) and Secret Garden, Millia's okizeme can shut down multiple defensive options and allow for safe, powerful mixups.
  • High Mobility: Millia has access to a variety of exceptional mobility tools, including two airdashes, a fast, low-profile run, an above average backdash, and momentum-changing special moves such as Silent Force (Pin) and Turbo Fall.
  • Great Aerial Game: A suite of fast air-to-air normals, alongside her aerial mobility, gives Millia solid control over the air. This is further complemented by a variety of grounded anti-airs.
  • Fast Normals: Millia has a variety of fast, low-commitment normals that allow her to control space, punish whiffed attacks, or approach in a variety of ways.
  • Silent Force: A fast fullscreen projectile that covers a multitude of angles, has virtually no recovery, and always leads to a full combo on air hit, giving Millia access to exceptional space control in neutral, air-to-airs, pressure resets, and routes into her strongest okizeme.
  • Paper-Thin Defense: Has the second lowest health in the game and no meterless reversal, with her only metered reversal being underwhelming.
  • Mediocre Damage: Overall damage is below average. Millia has access to high damage with knoweldge-heavy specialzied routes, but these usually require good starters to be worthwhile and consume the same resources that she often prefers to use in neutral and okizeme. Millia ultimately relies heavily on looping her okizeme to secure rounds.
  • Limited Reward From Ground Pokes: Despite her buttons being good for controlling space, she can't reliably get a knockdown to start her offense from grounded pokes at max range, unless she spents 50+% meter on Emerald Rain.

5P is one of Millia's main anti-airs, though it is not as easily abused as it was in its previous incarnation. Covers a solid area above and in front of Millia with a mostly disjointed hitbox. She can use it to stop jump-outs or to check the opponent's jump. It's safer than 6P on whiff, and its low recovery makes it a low-commitment option for this purpose.

  • Due to its low recovery, 5P is also a key part of her burst baits, with 2P5P after throw or 5PP being solid options.
  • Will whiff on crouching opponents.

Covers a decent arc in front of Millia. Can hit opponents directly above her, though it's not an exceptional anti-air. Gatlings into itself, 2K, and 6K, allowing for a high-low mixup on block. It also gatlings into 2S, allowing for a more rewarding low option or a way to gatling into heavier normals. Primarily used for pressure, such as with the string 2K5K2K.

  • Gatlings into itself on whiff.

22×2 Mid 7 9,3 20 -9 1~12F Upper Body 3
Total: 38

One of Millia's main anti-airs, with upper body invulnerability with a good sized hitbox. Leaves Millia quite vulnerable on whiff, so keep in mind if the opponent still has air options available. Opponents can land behind Millia on occasion when she uses this, which is something to avoid.

  • Staggers on grounded counter-hit. If both hits connect, however, the second hit will undo the stagger of the first hit, making converting off a counterhit stagger difficult.

Gatling Options: c.S, f.S, 2S, 5H, 2H, 6H, 5D

Additional Frame Data: Staggers opponent on ground CH (max 39F). Initial proration 90%.

Total: 29

One of Millia's main overheads that she uses in her mixup game. It's special cancellable on hit or block, allowing for a combo on hit without any prior setup. Also serves as a solid meaty for disc oki, providing a safer high option than Bad Moon.

  • Invulnerable to lows for much of its animation, making it a strong low crush option.
  • +5 on block, meaning she can continue to pressure the opponent even if they block it.

Additional Frame Data: Initial proration 80%. Hits crouching opponents on 20F (tested on Sol).

60 Mid 16 3 25 -9 5
Total: 43

Has slow startup and is horrible to whiff, making it rare to see in neutral. However, it knocks the opponent down on hit and is special cancellable, making it a useful combo ender. Many of Millia's corner combos end with 6H to secure a knockdown into oki. No gatling options, meaning you can't continue pressure on block without going directly into a special. Can also be used to stop jump outs in the corner.

Additional Frame Data: Slams down and knocks down opponent on hit.

An incredible normal for a variety of reasons, and one of your best tools for neutral and pressure. Millia's primary pressure starter due to its frame advantage, which makes it good for frametraps and tick throws. Bigger than most similar low kicks, letting you start pressure from farther away, especially with dash momentum. Also gatlings into itself and and 5K, making it a good low option. Works well as a meaty in disc oki due to its low commitment and good hitconfirm ability.

  • Lowers Millia's hurtbox significantly, letting you go under normals such as Johnny's f.S.

Total: 25

Solid air-to-air with a good amount of untech time. The hitbox is almost entirely disjointed, allowing it to beat many other air normals. However, shorter range than j.D means it isn't Millia's default air-to-air from far ranges. If the opponent is close enough to beat her j.D, j.H is a better choice.

Also an essential part of Millia's air combos, having high untech time and cancelling into airdash on hit for additional extensions. Try to confirm into this to get an air conversion going if you can.

  • Whiffs on crouching opponents, making it poor for air-to-ground.

Additional Frame Data: Floats opponent on hit (untechable for 20F).

48 High/Air 17 7 9+6 after landing 4
Total: 38

Millia's default long range air-to-air. It's airdash cancellable, meaning it can be used in specific combos or to close the gap after you hit someone with it. Grants a far-reaching untechable knockdown on counter-hit, allowing Secret Garden setups from fullscreen or disc oki when close.

Horrible air-to-ground move, as many characters can run or crouch under this move and punish its recovery. Has some landing recovery, making it not great to whiff, which further increases the risk of using it against grounded opponents.

Additional Frame Data Floats and blows back opponent on hit (untechable for 38F, on CH for 84F).

12×N All 10 1(3)×N 8 +5 3

Good for frame trap pressure on the ground since it is +5. Using f.S after this on block leaves a 2-frame gap, enough to punish almost all abare. On hit or block, Millia can cancel into Roll (214K) to go for a tick throw or reset pressure if the opponent's scared of the frametrap. You can also cancel into Haircar (214P) to go low, but this isn't that useful.

Additional Frame Data: Hitstop 6F. Listed Frame Adv is for no repeated hits. Can cancel to Longinus, Iron Saviour, or Roll from 8F onwards.

236H 50 All 60 33 Total 32 3
Total: 38
Total: 91

236S is a pretty fast, pretty versatile special move. Can be used as a way to cancel Turbo Fall's landing recovery to catch people off guard, or as a meaty after landing raw haircar, since the knockdown from haircar doesn't give you time for other meterless setups.

It's also useful as a frametrap due to its speed and decent reward in the corner or on counter-hit. In the corner, Millia can link 5P to combo from it. On counter-hit, you get a wallbounce, letting you follow up with an air combo.

  • Causes a wallbounce from anywhere on counter-hit, allowing for damaging conversions from anywhere on the screen.
  • Has an FRC point from 3~4F, letting you effectively remove the recovery from ground normals on block.

236H is a key part of Millia's okizeme, and the move that Disc oki is named after.

  • Longer startup, but longer active frames as well. Can be used after a variety of knockdowns, most commonly j.2H and Bad Moon.
  • Causes a wallbounce in the corner for combos, with similar conversions to 236S.
  • FRC timing in 20~21F, which isn't used often because of 236D but is still is applicable in certain matchups such as Baiken.

This is Millia's primary and staple mixup tool. After securing a knockdown, the Disc allows Millia to mask her high/low mixups while also making sure the opponent can't escape due to the blockstun. Some knockdowns, such as 2D > Roll > Disc, don't give enough time for the Disc to be a meaty. This can be used in conjunction with a meaty normal for a high-low mixup that's very plus on block, but be warned that this loses to reversals. Other knockdowns, however, such as low to the ground j.2H in the corner, allow the disc to hit meaty, leading to pressure that is harder to contest.

Some characters have ways around Disc oki:  Faust can crawl under Disc,  Zappa can duck under it,  Sol can slide under it with Grand Viper,  Order-Sol can slide under it with Gun Blaze,  A.B.A can slide under it with DraggingGGAC ABA kenin.pngGuardStartupRecoveryTotal 28Advantage-,  Robo-Ky and  Bridget can both delay their wakeups to avoid it, and  Slayer can pass through it with his teleport dashes. Keep this in mind when performing oki on these characters.

Also deceptively useful in neutral. Placing down a disc allows Millia to hide behind a constant active hitbox and potentially get a followup if the opponent runs into it. The FRC point adds to this, as it allows you to set a disc without fear of being punished on reactions by moves such as Sol's Grand Viper.

24×N High/Air 11 Until landing 22 after landing -15 3

A combo ender in the corner for extra damage. Yields a knockdown at a low enough heights. When performed with a Tiger Knee(TK) motion (doing it as close to the ground as possible by inputting 2369P), it becomes an unreactable 16 frame overhead and Millia's primary high mixup during Disc oki. Very punishable on block, so it generally should not be used in neutral or without the cover of H Tandem Top outside of combos.

  • Has a minimum height limit. This is important to note, as it changes how to input the TK motion. Specifically, you need to wait a bit before hitting P for Bad Moon to come out.
  • Has an FRC point a set amount of time after Millia bounces off her opponent, right as she uncurls from being a moon. This makes Bad Moon much safer on block or whiff, but Millia has other uses for 25 Tension.

Until landing+12

Millia's command fastfall, which lets her alter her trajectory in the air and make it harder for the opponent to anti-air her. Millia dives down in a 45 degree angle, giving her an extra way to cover a large distance in an unexpected way in neutral. Can also be used for mixups, as you can pass through opponents while descending for a crossup.

  • Landing recovery is cancellable into ground specials, which can allow for a quick way to catch opponents off guard.
  • FRC point from 14~15F, just as Millia starts moving; if you're quick enough, you can use an air normal as you descend.
  • Has some startup before Millia starts moving. If hit out of this startup, she won't go anywhere.

Additional Frame Data: Can pass through opponent during fall. Fastest possible Turbo Fall performed from standing has total duration 29F. Has minimum height requirement.

A command roll that shrinks Millia's hurtbox and lets her low profile underneath some attacks. Useful in pressure and for tick throw setups. If your opponent respects you too much, use this to close the distance. Can also be used in neutral to avoid the opponent's pokes. It even goes under things it doesn't look like it should, such as Chipp's 2S and Justice's 2D.

  • Can be throw punished on reaction if used too predictably.

Additional Frame Data: Can pass through opponent. Millia is in CH state 1~15F. Can pick up Hairpin during move.

36 Low 17 Until corner 18+8 after landing -13 3

Commonly referred to as Haircar. Hits low and travels forever until Millia hits her opponent or the wall. The startup looks identical to that of TK Bad Moon, making it a deceptive low mixup. This makes it Millia's preffered low option during Disc oki. The FRC point adds another layer to this; with tight timing, you can immediately input j.K before you land, allowing you to turn your low into an overhead.

  • Should not be used from fullscreen, as it is punishable.

Additional Frame Data: Millia is airborne from 7F onwards. Blows back and knocks down opponent on hit. Initial prorate 90%. FRC timing 17~22F.

An incredible move that enhances every aspect of Millia's gameplay. Useful for zoning, air-to-airs, approaching, pressure, combos, and more. Once thrown, you have to pick it back up again by crouching or rolling over it. The pin cannot be picked up for 122f(roughly 2 seconds) after throwing; you'll know it's ready to be picked up again when it begins glowing.

  • Virtually no recovery once thrown, allowing you to quickly airdash after throwing it for an approach.
  • Staggers on ground counter hit and has high untech time on air hit; both situations can lead to a combo.

  • K Pin removes all of Millia's upward momentum, and its trajectory is steeper than both S Pin and H Pin.

Has a slightly different use in neutral compared to S Pin, being reserved mostly for covering close approaches by the opponent, especially when punishing lows. Also useful as an "anti-anti-air." With proper spacing, K Pin can beat out some grounded anti airs and allow Millia to start a combo off the counter-hit stagger. Due to its ability to completely hault Millia's upward momentum it can be used to extend ground pressure into her airdash strings seamlessly. A good example is c.S > TK K Pin (2147K) > airdash forward > j.S.

Also used after rising j.K in fuzzy guard setups to confirm into a combo without Disc or meter, and some combos or setups against certain characters (like Johnny) may require K Pin instead of S or H.


  • S Pin temporarily halts Millia's air movement while the pin is being thrown, and its trajectory is roughly a 45° angle downward in front of Millia.

This is Millia's primary projectile and extremely crucial to her neutral game. It allows her to control the pace of the matchup, as opponents will have to keep in mind whether or not you have it available. S Pin into an immediate airdash forward is a safe and effective way to both control space and approach, even if the pin whiffs.

Fishing for counter-hits is an easy way for Millia to brute force her way in due to the large amount of hitstun. If the opponent blocks it, she may still have an opportunity to continue pressure under the right circumstances due to the blockstun.

It also serves as a crucial ender to some her air combos depending on height/distance to the corner; (j.214S > land > 6H) is a common way to secure a knockdown into Garden oki in the corner.


  • H Pin Has slightly slower startup, but gives Millia an extra upward boost before throwing.

Good for positioning in the air if the opponent is catching on to the angle Millia throws S Pin at. Also useful for air-to-airing, as it allows Millia to hit opponents directly aboce her for massive damage.

All versions of Silent Force: Staggers opponent on ground CH (max 49F). Untechable on air hit for 33F. In CH state during entire move. Initial prorate 80%. Has minimum height requirement. After throwing Silent Force, crouch or Roll over the hairpin to recover it (takes 1F to recover); The hairpin can only be recovered 122F after hitting the ground.

Once the move is input, Millia summons an orb that will accept up to four more direction inputs by pressing a direction and H (e.g. 214H -> 6H 1H 6H 4H). After 52 frames (regardless of whether any inputs were given or not), Millia will return to neutral and the orb will begin travelling along the path that was input.

Once active, the projectile will persist even if Millia is hit. This makes Garden oki naturally beat both abare and reversals, as both actions will cause Garden to hit the opponent. Garden oki can cover the options previously mentioned to beat Disc oki, making Garden setups valuable against those characters.

Secret Garden can be used from fullscreen after an air throw or counter-hit j.D to lock down the opponent on their wakeup, allowing Millia to safely rushdown the opponent. It can also be used in place of H Tandem Top for longer and better okizeme, but this generally requires specific setups to achieve.

  • Common setups include S Pin > land > 6H > Garden and FB Pretty Maze > airdash back > j.D > land > 6H > Garden. Common patterns for Garden on an opponent's wakeup are 1H 6H 4H 6H when close, 2H 8H 2H 8H when farther, and 3H 8H 2H 8H when even farther than that.
  • It has incredibly long startup (during which Millia can be counterhit), and thus should generally not be used in neutral.
    • However, it can be used for fullscreen space control against characters that cannot approach Millia in time to interrupt it, such as Justice.
  • Can be canceled during startup by pressing D if the situation is too dangerous to continue with the move.

Millia's staple force break for mixups. It has quicker startup than H Tandem Top, making it more convenient to set up. It's also active for longer and hits three times instead of just one, allowing more time for multiple mixups. If they block the first mixup, she can simply do another one. Once active, the disc will stay out even if Millia is hit. This makes it situationally useful for trading in neutral and extremely useful for reversal-safe oki.

  • Pretty Maze will also float on hit, giving Millia the opportunity to launch the opponent up, combo them, and reset the situation over again.

Additional Frame Data: Total duration 33F. Millia is airborne from 1~20F. Floats and pulls in opponent on hit (untechable for 35F). Pulls in opponent on block. Millia is in CH state during entire move. Disc appears on 22F. Cannot use Pretty Maze, Tandem Top, or Secret Garden until 42F after disc disappears. FRC timing 6~8F.


Air version summons a disc in the air. This move does not operate as a "trap" like ground Pretty Maze, instead being more similar to 236S.

Increases Millia's momentum on use. If you were jumping forward, you'll go forward faster after using Pretty Maze. Notably, if you airdash, then use Pretty Maze mid-flight, you'll be flung a great distance forwards or backwards at high speeds. This can be used to cover long distances fast, with IAD > Pretty Maze sending you almost the entire horizontal length of the screen at max zoom-out. This is also useful for crossups, since you can fling yourself over and behind your enemy.

Due to the high untech time and ability to airdash cancel, this move is useful for stabilizing some air combos. This is especially useful against lightweight characters, who might otherwise be too high to secure a knockdown against. The FRC point lets you act almost immediately after your momentum changes, but this costs 50 Tension, so it's seldom used.

Additional Frame Data: Wallbounces opponent on hit (untechable for 50F). Millia is in CH state until she lands. Disc appears on 12F. Cannot use Pretty Maze, Tandem Top, or Secret Garden until 42F after disc disappears. FRC timing 4~6F.

Millia leaps up into the air while summoning the orb, giving her safer positioning while setting it up. The orb activates much faster, and Millia is actionable much sooner after using it.

This move greatly strengthens your oki, as it allows you to set up Garden oki much easier. Notably, 2D, j.2H, and Bad Moon knockdowns all set up FB Garden. This move is an extremely useful method of pressuring the aforementioned characters with responses to Disc oki, since this allows common knockdowns to be turned into strong pressure that those characters cannot easily escape.

The increased speed also greatly decreases the risk of using Garden for space control, allowing you to throw it out in more situations.

Additional Frame Data Millia is airborne from 5F onwards. Millia is in CH state 1~25F and 55~68F. Bubble appears on 30F. Accepts up to 4 additional inputs to control direction of bubble from 6~41F. Bubble passes through other projectiles. Cannot perform another Secret Garden, Pretty Maze, or Tandem Top until 27F after bubble disappears.

Follow-up to Lust Shaker. Causes the opponent to slide on hit. In or near the corner, it causes a wallstick for combos. Midscreen, Millia gets a knockdown. Allows Millia to turn an f.S hit into a knockdown from farther ranges than usual, helping you start your gameplan faster.

  • Since Lust Shaker is already +5, this isn't usually used for its plus frames.

Additional Frame Data: Slides opponent on hit (untechable for 55F, slides for 26F). Blockstun 20F. Forced prorate 80%.

Ground version is her only reversal move that has invincible startup. Not a very good reversal, and should be used sparingly. The horizontal range of the rising hits is incredibly poor. This can sometimes cause opponents to fall out, especially if they were doing an extended button when you hit them. The invincibility wears off almost immediately after the startup, meaning moves such as Ky's Charged Stun Edge can beat wakeup Winger completely.

Additional Frame Data: Rising portion floats opponent on hit (untechable for 60F). Falling portion wallbounces opponent on hit (untechable for 60F). Final hit slides opponent on hit (untechable for 60F, slides for 36F)


The air version is mostly used to beat weaker anti-airs or for stuffing air-to-air attempts. Millia has much cheaper and less risky ways to do this, though. Not very good.

  • Hits overhead, just like the ground version's final hit.

Additional Frame Data: Air version has initial prorate 70%. Slides opponent on hit (untechable for 60F, slides for 36F (47F on CH).
