Overview
Millia Rage uses swift and graceful aerial movement to spy for opportunities to score a knockdown. She then transitions to deadly okizeme mix-ups to efficiently eliminate her opponent, well expected of a master assassin.
♦ Her mobility makes traversing the battlefield a breeze. She runs quickly, has two air dashes, and two special moves that alter her air momentum (Turbo Fall

- projectile. She recovers mid-air before the disk is active, giving her ample time to mix her opponent with the many tools in her box of tricks. Her main low is 2K while her main highs are 6K, 5[D], and any air normal. Her j.H is especially notable due to its low hitbox and ability to hit both sides of Millia. She can even cross-up with an airdash or with Turbo Fall and Mirazh

- depending on the setup.
♦ Millia's Mirazh also has the very unique and powerful ability to be special canceled mid-animation. This allows her to get better combo conversions she normally wouldn't get before or to make previous conversions more consistent and easier. It also brings her closer to her opponent after knockdowns allowing her to get better oki mixups or to even setup Tandem Top in situations where she couldn't before.
♦ Millia’s main weakness is her low health combined with her high R.I.S.C gain. This means that Millia is highly susceptible to "Touch of Death" or ToD combos, as well as losing fast in general. Furthermore, her defensive options are insignificant in balancing it all out. Her fastest jab, 2P, isn't particularly fast and has very little reward on-hit. Her only reversal is her Overdrive, Winger

-32, which has subpar horizontal range and is easy to punish. The invulnerability on her backdash is below average (4f), although it makes up for this by having a fast recovery (16f total duration). She also has a very low meter multiplier, causing her to generally gain less meter than her opponent does, making it hard to offset their offense with defensive tools like Faultless Defense, YRC, or Overdrive.
| Lore: | She is silent and cold.
However, since leaving the Guild, she no longer works only for profit as she once did. Now that she lives among ordinary people, Millia's come to feel a wider range of emotions. She may not show it in her words or actions, but she's found herself able to sympathize with others. When faced with an uncertain situation, she can even look like a normal girl her age sometimes. |

5P
- Can gatling into itself
- Whiffs on most crouching characters.
Deals decent damage and has good range for a 5P, but it'll whiff on most crouchers. 5P is useful for anti-airing thanks to its high hitbox, good speed, and decent combos off air-hit. It's also useful for controling space in-front of Millia to preempt an attack/approach due to its decently long active frames and low recovery.
Gatling Options: 5P, 2P, 6P, 6K, 6H
5K
One more 5K can't hurt
- Jump and dash cancelable.
- One of the few 5Ks that can self-gatling.
Weaker than c.S, but is not bounded in a proximity. Useful as a mix-up tool outside the proximity of c.S. Can also be used in situations when f.S would be too slow or for better reward.
On normal hit, you would cancel the move into 2D to initiate H Tandem TopGuard:

c.S
This is the anti-air that will pierce the heavens!
And their defense with all its mix
1st Hit (frame 7-9)
2nd Hit (frame 10-12)
- Hits twice, jump and dash cancelable on both hits.
- Second hit floats.
- Has a combined active hitbox of 6 frames meaning it can catch most backdashes if timed correctly.
c.S is one of her most useful pokes in combos and pressure. Although only works in a proximity, you have more options than when using 5K due to having more gatlings, more hitstun and better launch velocity.
Gatling Options: 6P, 6K, f.S, 2S, 5H, 2H, 6H, 5D, 2D
f.S
Pray to Lord Daisuke your 5H doesn't whiff
- The move has a very intense knockback which makes it both safe but also inconsistent in comboing
Millia's f.S is mainly used in general footsie situations. Does not lead to great meterless reward, if it combos at all, on max range. Leads to better on Counter Hit, but takes some hit-confirming. 2S is generally preferrable in combos, as it exerts less knockback.
Gatling Options: 5H, 2H
5H
R.I.P. wake up 4H grab option select
Close hitbox (frame 12-13)
Far hitbox (frame 14-15)
- The move has two hitboxes: a close hitbox and far hitbox
- Close hitbox is active on frame 12 and is about the range of her 2P
- Far hitbox is active on frame 14 which is disjointed and leaves her -6 on block instead.
- Causes a small ground bounce on air hit.
5H is used in both combos and block strings along with 2H and 6H. Compared to 2H, 5H is more likely to consistently hit due to its larger horizontal hitbox, but Millia loses out on better meterless counter hit combos. Due to how her 5H hitbox works, it's usually only safe when used at mid-long ranges. It is possible to make close 5H safer by canceling it into Lust Shaker

16Advantage:
-5, -7, -9 thanks to Lust Shaker being -5 instead of -8. Close 5H into Lust Shaker is gapless so the opponent can't mash a reversal, however, far 5H into Lust Shaker will usually have a small gap that can be mashed.
5D
Overhead on wired, unblockable on WiFi
- Uncharged Dust
- Uncharged dust on-hit is 0 or neutral frame advantage and causes float
- Causes 80% proration on-hit
Uncharged dust is useful for beginners as [5D > 88.RRC > ...] is easier and only slightly slower than [tk.236P > 88.RRC > ...], but is significantly faster than [6H(1) > j.236P > 88.RRC > ...]. It can also be used as a way to cash out on built-up R.I.S.C. gauge by doing [5D FRRC c.S > ...]. But since Millia tends to focus more on mixups rather than block strings, this isn't really practical as her opponents will not have enough R.I.S.C. to justify this technique. Avoid using uncharged dust without RC as uncharged dust on-hit leaves Millia on neutral frame advantage which is extremely bad for her.
- Charged Dust
- Charged Dust leads to soft knockdown (+36).
- Holding any upwards direction during the hitstop frames of charged dust will activate Homing Jump:
- Doing a Homing Jump will cause an Area Shift and put the opponent into a unique high damaging air combo state.
- Pressing any attack twice in a row without jump/dash canceling will perform a unique Finishing Blow attack, causing a hard knockdown (+23).
- Homing Jump combos can sometimes increase Tension Balance enough to activate Positive Bonus.
Due to its large and easy to spot animation combined with its very slow start up, it can be pretty easy for a capable opponent to react and block Millia's charged dust. Charged dust is mainly going to be used as a punish tool or as a follow-up to H Tandem TopGuard:
AllStartup:
73Recovery:
Total 51Advantage:
- since the plus frames will keep charged dust safe. It's also possible to get a cheeky charged dust to work if the opponent was waiting for a different mixup or due to reduced reactions speeds caused by rollback frames.

- for a left/right mixup, extremely strict timing to avoid losing to grab.
2P is Millia's fastest jab allowing her to use it defensively to escape pressure or to intercept an opponent's tick-throw. She can also use it as a tick-throw herself, but 5K is usually better since it has superior mixup options and frame traps. It's effective at baiting YRC and Burst, as mashing 1P will allow her to recover in time to automatically block any YRC/Burst. If they don't YRC/Burst, she can do a tick-throw or a delayed 2P to reset to neutral. Though it may be used defensively, its little reward on-hit makes it hard to warrant using over jump or 2K.

2K's speed makes it great for whiff punishing an opponent or as a low mixup. It can also be used as a defensive jab over 2P as it has better reward and range at the cost of being slightly slower. Combos into 2D allowing for a meaty H Tandem TopGuard:

In order to do this, Millia must be as close as possible with as much dash momentum as she can, using 3K instead of 2K might help with consistency. The timing for this mixup is extremely strict against big body characters. Trip on air-hit can also offer a very niche combo extending property.

Millia's staple block string follow-up after c.S due to it hitting low and having good counter hit combos after a frame trap. It's also useful as an alternative poking tool for f.S as it doesn't whiff against low profiling opponents an it also has more rewarding combos on counter hit. The only real downside is the slightly shorter range and longer startup. Great combo extender in certain situations due to the trip on air hit.
Gatling Options: 5H, 2H

2H is used in both combos and block strings along with 5H and 6H. When used in a block string, 2H can have massive punishes if it counter hits on frame trap. However, the move is risky to use after a 2S as it tends to whiff (especially if the opponent FDs). In combos, its launch on hit property is extremely useful as keeps the opponent in the air longer after Iron Savior

6K
BONK!
but with elegance
- Despite what the animation may suggest, the move is not considered airborne. Therefore it is not grab invincible.
- 6K is tied with charged dust (5[D]) as being her slowest overhead.
- Can be canceled into other specials/supers on hit or block.
- Forced crouch on ground hit, mild ground bounce on air hit.

First Hit (frame 17-21)
Second Hit (frame 35-38)

j.P
Reaction speed check
- Millia's fastest air jab
j.P can be used as a double overhead after an airdash that will still link into 2K > 2D. The most consistent way to set up the double overhead is usually after a j.H airdash cancel. It can also be used as an air tick-throw mixup to call out an opponent's reaction speed. It's other usage is as a frame kill to help setup a safe jump after Iron SaviorGuard:

One of Millia's main air combo tools along with j.S and j.D. In combos, j.K is interchangeable with j.S. However, j.K is faster, has a larger hitbox, and launches the opponent higher than j.S, but it does noticeably lower damage. Keep in mind that j.K will almost always lose to wake-up 6P, where a low j.H would often hit. Rising j.K into another air normal before landing is good way to control air space.

Millia's main air combo tool and air-to-air poke. As an air combo tool, j.S will deal more damage than j.K. But if j.S might whiff, it can usually be swapped for j.K to keep the combo going. It's also an excellent air poke due to its counter hit property and range. Rising j.S into another air normal before landing is good way to control air space.

j.H is Millia's main jump-in and left/right mixup tool, but it can also be used in corner air combos for extra damage. Depending on the scenario, j.H can either be linked into c.S or 2K. Overall c.S is her best option due to c.S being able to allow crossup H Tandem TopGuard:

Late hitbox (frame 12-15)
- Can be canceled into Jump, air-dash, or air-backdash.
- Launches on hit.
- Slows down Millia's fall during startup and shifts her upwards during the active frames.
j.D is mainly used for combos, not so much in pressure especially if the opponent crouches. That being said, it does have a niche usage as a mixup tool. Since j.D shifts Millia's momentum upwards, airdash canceling a j.D sets up a crossup. Be aware though, that it can be reacted to by a capable opponent or be mashed, so use it sparingly. j.D is death on whiff so always combo into it instead of doing it raw.

- oki and safe jumps if timed correctly. 2P/2K Mirazh OTG is an unreactable left/right mixup that leads into great reward on-hit and can beat wake-grab if done correctly. 2K should always beat wake-up grab, but she can't crossup big bodies (
FA, 
GO, 
NA, and 
PO). Using 2P can crossup regardless if the opponent is a big body or not but requires precise execution to make safe to wake-up grab (especially crossup).
H Tandem Top oki can also be a grab mixup option as well. The advantage of this is that Millia skips needing to do a sweep setup and can immediately deal damage to the opponent. However because grab > H Tandem Top oki has a gap slightly too large, 7f reversals are fast enough to beat safe jump j.H. Avoid using H Tandem Top oki if 7f reversals are a possible threat.

H disc is Millia's most important okizeme tool due to its good damage and high success chance. Meaty H Disc hits the opponent immediately on wake-up making reversals the only escape option. If Millia is confident the opponent won't reversal, then she can freely do the 4-way mixup. But if the opponent does have the option to reversal, then Millia can either bait it by blocking (most reward on-hit) or by doing jump back into KapelGuard:
AllStartup:
13Recovery:
12Advantage:
-1 at lowest height (avoids DP RC, gives high/low mix on-block, must be done very fast for best reward on-hit). Alternatively Millia can also crossup the opponent making it hard to know which direction to reversal (Note that this doesn't work against 
Leo's Eisensturm
Guard:
AllStartup:
9Recovery:
33Advantage:
-28 which ignores crossups).
Delay H disc won't hit immediately allowing the opponent to have more escape options aside from reversals. Millia can stop this by using j.H to beat most escape options (use j.4H to beat reversals). Once they're conditioned, a mix between j.H sameside high, 2K sameside low, and airdash grab to crossup (grab will option select jump outs) are her best mixup options. However j.H safe jump does not work on all delay setups. Short gap setups will cause Millia to land before the j.H will hit while long gap setups don't allow Millia to safe jump at all. Short gaps can be delayed even more to allow the j.H to hit, but long gaps can't be fixed and should only be used when the opponent can't reversal. Instead, Millia should do something else like 4-way airdash mix.
Does not go away if you block, so if you condition right, the opponent will have to respect your oki.

- Tip #2: To do a jump cancel TK, wait until the last second of the attack's animation before doing TK. (jump cancel TK is unnecessary, just input Bad Moon normally)
- Tip #3: Doing a
input will still work as a TK Bad Moon (useful for up-drift RC)
- Perfect TK Bad Moon has a startup of 15 frames and is active for 4 frames (hits twice).
- Alternatively Millia can use [6H(1) > j.236P] to use Bad Moon on the ground, but this is slower and 6H can't whiff.
- Only causes soft knockdown, but you are in enough advantage to do pressure even midscreen.
Millia's infamous instant overhead that's too fast to react to and can gapless block string after a jump canceled c.S. Midscreen, Bad Moon allows Millia to meaty with 5K, f.S or 2D. In the corner, it's possible to meaty with c.S or she can 2S/Bad Moon/Grab for a 3-way mixup. With 50 meter Millia can use RRC to make Bad Moon a much more powerful tool. tk.236P > 88.RRC will either hit confirm into a combo or lock the opponent in block stun for a brutal 4-way mixup. Bad Moon is also one of Millia's air combo enders, but using KapelGuard:

Iron Savior serves two main purposes: ending combos and being a high commitment poke. Ending combos with Iron Savior gives a very plus knockdown that can be used to either set up a j.P/j.K safe jump or a basic run up airdash 4-way mixup. Iron Savior is also a great poke for stuffing out the attacks of players who like to go full offense or for players who tend not to crouch block during footsies. Be prepared to use PRC to make Iron Savior safe if it gets blocked.
With Red RC, it can be used as a means of setting up mixups by either using normal RRC or FRRC (Fast Red RC). Normal RRC mixups are impossible to react to and keep the opponent in block stun for 16f giving plenty of time to mix. The main advantage of normal RRC is that it's easy to react and convert into full combo if the Iron Savior hits. FRRC mixups for the most part are the same as they're normal RRC counterparts. However by canceling the RRC, the opponent isn't in block stun and Millia can almost immediately grab the opponent. Also notable is that FRRC overhead is a very good knowledge check for lower floors especially if Iron Savior was done from far away.

-1 at lowest height, Millia can make her opponent very wary of trying to punish/intercept her while doing this move. This makes Turbo Fall a decent air approach option with good conditioning. It also has applications for okizeme as it allows Millia to quickly cross through opponents and end up on the other side allowing for a high/low/grab mix. This is especially useful after a meaty H Tandem TopGuard:

It's like kara canceling, but better!
Initial startup (frame 1-3)
*The hurtbox is green because she can't be counterhit
The Mirazh (frame 4-24)
*Yellow collision box disappears on frames 6-14
- Can phase through opponent on frames 6-14.
- Can be canceled mid animation into any ground special/Overdrive.
- Very similar upper body invulnerability to 6P.
- Millia starts moving at approximately frame ~10 and stops moving at about frame ~20.
Due to its long recovery, Mirazh is one of Millia's weaker delay mixups since run up grab/jab are usually faster and are more guaranteed to work. Mirazh as a mixup is best used as rarely as possible as a way to throw off the opponent. It's particularly effective when crossing up an opponent mashing reversal.
The main usage for Mirazh however, isn't for mixing up the opponent but rather for Mirazh canceling. In neutral, Mirazh cancels are mainly to low profile projectiles into Iron SaviorGuard:

- Depending on how much Millia mashes
, Millia can get 3 different versions: 3-hit, 6-hit, and 9-hit.
- Each version has slightly more range than the last but will also have more recovery.
- 9-hit version will soft knockdown unless Millia does 4 well timed inputs (Example)
- The last hit will has extra knockback.
- Chip damage is underwhelming but FD meter drain is godlike
3-hit and 6-hit are safe on block depending on distance, however, some characters can punish 9-hit regardless of distance like

Kapel can also be used in air combos for setting up safe jumps or for c.S relaunches. If Millia drops her air combos with Kapel at very specific points, she can safe jump with j.H as she is landing. She can also use it in corner air combos to either relaunch with c.S or to wall splat the opponent low to the ground for a WingerGuard:

Millia's reversal Overdrive, and her only reversal in general. Winger is extremely punishable on-block and has a very short horizontal range, so its use as a reversal should be reserved for calling out frame traps or escaping the pressure of overly aggressive opponents. If the opponent is purposely spacing themselves so Winger will whiff or patiently block to see your defensive reactions, it's best to opt for a different escape option.
It's also the preferred Overdrive for wall breaking as it does more damage than Septem VoicesGuard:

+8, however is does build significantly more burst and tension for the opponent which might be a concern. If the opponent was wall splat too high then the diving hit will whiff, preventing the wall break from occurring. Millia can somewhat makeup for the blunder by doing a jump > airdash for a high/low mixup although there is no reason to do this on purpose.
