Overview
Overview

Izayoi plays between two modes: Her defensive Normal Mode, and her offensive Gain Art Mode. In Gain Art Mode, Izayoi has a strong damage potential, powerful mixup, and amazing movement options. By balancing these two modes properly, Izayoi can switch from patient neutral play to aggressive rushdown. While Normal Mode has average movement options and relatively low damage, she reaps the reward in Gain Art Mode. One of Izayoi's trademark features is her huge toolset. From a projectile, to stance cancels, to various plus on block normals, Izayoi has a variety of tools for any given situation.

While Izayoi is a strong character, she requires quick decision making and good game sense. She has many tools, but they often fit specific situations. This can make it difficult for newer players to learn Izayoi, and can give experienced players a hard time with their decision making. Generally speaking, Izayoi is average difficulty to pick up, but hard to master. Should you decide to take it up a notch, Izayoi has a high skill ceiling and rewards dedicated players with amazing mixup tools and damage.

is a high execution character boasting strong mixup, and flexible tools with her Gain Art Mode.
Pros
Cons
  • Powerful Normal Mode Neutral: Izayoi has a great set of tools for controlling neutral in Normal Mode with the bonus of beying uniquely rewarding on hit and block.
  • Insane Gain Art Mixups: Her hoverdash in Gain Art lets Izayoi viciously pick apart even the most defensive players with constant high/lows.
  • High Mobility: Gain Art's unique dashes and D teleport along with Normal Mode's regular teleports give Izayoi incredible control over where she is on the screen.
  • Potent Okizeme: Izayoi's okizeme in Gain Art is simple and strong. Every combo ends in a knockdown, which gives a high/low mixup or a safejump.
  • Strong Defense: She has access to a meterless reversal and is generally very strong in scramble situations.
  • Unorthodox Anti-Airs: Izayoi does not have a head-invulnerable normal. While she does have good anti-airs, her only truly invincible one is 623B which is hard to get out in a pinch.
  • Resource Reliant: Not having Zero Weave stocks stops Izayoi from using Gain Art effectively. Her knockdown tools are all tied to stocks and running out of them makes her life very difficult.
  • Active Resource: Izayoi starts the round without resources and the opponent must make contact with her special moves in order to gain them.

Izayoi's Drive allows her to enter an alternate mode called Gain Art (GA for short) that changes her C normals, and gives her new dashes, special moves (all using the D button), and extensions to existing special moves. Izayoi changes modes by pressing 5D/2D/j.D. While in Gain Art Mode, Izayoi gains tremendous mix-up and pressure potential, contrasting the defensive style of her normal mode. However, there is a limit to Gain Art Mode.

Izayoi has a unique gauge called the Zero Weave Gauge. This gauge has 8 stocks that Izayoi must spend in order to perform Gain Art-only specials and Gain Art extensions. Izayoi gains stocks by landing special moves during normal mode. On hit, each special generates 2 stocks. On block, each special generates 1 stock. Keep in mind that Izayoi does not need any stocks in the Zero Weave Gauge to change modes. Special move extensions in GA are the foundation behind Gain Art pressure and combos. Effective usage of normal mode to generate stocks and Gain Art to spend them is the key to success!

Izayoi's movement options greatly change in Gain Art Mode. Izayoi gains new air dashes and new ground dashes. In GA, Izayoi has 2 air options, but cannot double jump after using an airdash. On the ground, both of her dashes become Hover dashes. Inputting a dash will cause Izayoi to immediately fly up into the air at an angle. This prevents Izayoi from microdashing her normals, but gives her unparalleled mixups. Izayoi's ground dashes do not consume air options. This means that Izayoi can use unique movement like Backdash > djc > Airdash. Izayoi's air dashes also become Hover Dashes, and she can can use an air option to cancel them into each other, or jump.

Izayoi's Overdrive provides several buffs: Izayoi passively gains stocks, her Distortion Drives become stronger, and her Gain Arts specials receive several buffs.

Depending on Izayoi's mode, she gains stocks at different rates. Remember, In OD Izayoi can still generate stocks by hitting an opponent with a special, or forcing them to block a special.

  • In Normal Mode, Izayoi gains 1 stock/ ~.67 seconds (~40F)
  • In Gain Arts, Izayoi gains 1 stock/ ~1 second (~60F)

Like other characters, her Distortion Drives become stronger during Overdrive as well:

  • Justice Phorizer increases in range and damage
  • Slaver Trans-am lasts approximately twice as long.
Overdrive also strengthens her existing Gain Art specials, opening up new combos and pressure.

  • Whiffs on most crouching hurtboxes.
  • Allows for combo extension after a high hitting jC.

Relatively standard 5A. Izayoi's fastest move, and is used to pick up from some air combos. Has a very decent end hitbox, though the range is very short. Can be used to stuff horizontal air approaches that fall into it's range. Whiffs some crouchers, but only under specific circumstances. As such, it's usage for whiffing crouching hitboxes is relatively inconsistent, but that inconsistency does make it a bit tricky to defend against.

  • Very long reach for it's speed.
  • Vital footsies tool in conjunction with 2B and 2C.
  • One of Izayoi's best pokes.

While 5B is a bit on the slow side, it makes up for it with its range. This move is capable of tagging most characters from round start positions. This move does come with hurtbox extensions (and can be low profiled, especially near the tip of the hitbox) but in tandem with other moves to cover low profiles, it demands a lot of respect. Can be confirmed into 236B or 236C at any range. Commonly cancelled into Sonic Sabre for pressure.

  • Forward movement is very useful for pressure and confirms.
  • Izayoi's main air combo starter in normal mode.

Slides Izayoi forwards before attacking. This is great for confirming hits that were previously too far to turn into anything substantial, but also plays a big role in closing space during pressure. Can also (albeit awkwardly) function as an anti air on some characters thanks to its hitbox.

  • End hit/hurtbox is very low
  • Plus on block
  • Can chain into itself once on whiff, hit, or block

A kick with a solid amount of range. Standard speed for a 2A, but recovers incredibly fast and leaves her plus. It's also a low. Can only be used twice per string. Like most 2As, this cancels into throw. However, it's often better to go for 5Aw > B+C in order to TRM an opponent.

  • Great range
  • Low profile

A bit similar in usage to 2A, but comes with a bit more startup and extra range. New gatling into 2B from 5B provides a way to keep respect during midrange strings. The range also comes into play with Izayoi's restrictive cancel states after teleports, where 2B's extra reach becomes indispensable. Strong footsie tool in normal mode.

Slightly nerfed as a starter from CPEX since it is now S starter (same as 2A), but still has better starting proration than 2A and is faster than 5B.

  • Amazing ground footsie tool
  • Fatal Counter
    • Causes Very long stagger on CH

A staple of Izayoi's ground game in normal mode. Extremely good extended hitbox, crouching animation, and a good amount of active frames makes this move very demanding to whiff punish. A bit on the slow side for a neutral poke, but controls space extremely well, and maintains a good frame disadvantage with stance cancel. If this move tags an extended hitbox and counterhits, you have an abundance of time to run up and convert into 8 stocks and a knockdown (even on most trades!). Also a great choice for counterhit punishes.

  • Low invulnerable
  • Feintable (Hold B to Feint)
  • 110% Bonus Proration

Izayoi's standing overhead. Now special cancelable (mostly into air slashes) on hit or block, which makes it great for stock gain. It is also useful for beating anticipated foot property moves. Funnily enough, can be feinted, though the overall speed and recovery makes this more of a parlor trick than anything, since it can be fuzzy mashed everytime. Can only be canceled into from 2C. Knocks down on air hit, if necessary.

If Slaver Trans-Am is active, the bits still attack even if the move is feinted.

This move can close a lot of space mid pressure, especially in conjunction with 5C. Comes with more blockstun than other normal mode moves, making it a staple. Also a great punish move, generally yielding the highest damage Izayoi can dish out. 6C has a small window of body invulnerability, but it doesn't see much use outside of evading moves after superflash.

  • Long untechable time, but hard to utilize
  • Can take advantage of no-tech situations

Going into CPEX, 3C lost almost all of its utility. It has very short range, is no longer jump cancelable on block, and doesn't create more frame advantage after 236B~214A/B. Only comes up to OTG after 214A on a short starter, or at a range too far to confirm into Aegis to preserve a knockdown. Relatively useless, but does let you get extra hits in on opponents who choose not to tech, maybe even letting you take better control of a knockdown or get more stocks.

  • Go-to overhead for pressure
  • Tricky cross-up hitbox

Significantly buffed from CPEX, the new animation has a much longer horizontal hitbox, a higher vertical hitbox and a very strong crossup hitbox, at the cost of being one frame slower than before. Still fast enough to function as a strong mixup tool, while still reaping the rewards of a good combo starter rating, and can gatling back into j.A for a falling fuzzy overhead on grounded opponents. Its usage is slightly limited by how good her other air normals are, but is still one of the better options for hitting opponents higher up in the air than you.

  • Great vertical range, can beat out many anti airs
  • Can allow for relaunch combos if hit with the top of hitbox

jC is a great jump in, hitting crouching hitboxes when done immediately off of an IAD. Against anti airs, it can tag a lot of AA's on their startup before invulnerability kicks in, forcing pre-emptive action. Both of these uses play a big part in Izayoi's neutral, making jC a big part of Normal Mode play. Midcombo, it can set up a knockdown or relaunches.

5D and 2D are a bit similar on the surface, but there are 2 major things that may make you want to use one over the other. Firstly, the hurtboxes vary. 2D produces a longer horizontal hurtbox, and 5D a longer vertical hurtbox. This also comes into play with mode change combos, where you may increase frame advantage during D saber combos by moving your opponent's hurtbox in a certain way by either standing or crouching. This is hurtbox-specific, so mess around with it! Secondly, 5D cuts all grounded momentum and 2D preserves it, meaning a Mode Change combo into a pickup will prefer to use dash 2D to close space, or maybe even 5D to retain it.

If Izayoi is hit before the mode change, she will stay in her current form. However, this move is very fast so it's likely that Izayoi will change modes and then get hit.

  • Changes from Gain Art to Normal Mode, or vice versa
  • Mode Change on 11F
  • Pauses Air Momentum
  • Considered to be in CH state during the change

A bit more useful than 5D or 2D, jD falls in between the two in terms of their properties. Because it halts momentum to a degree, you can use it to stall in the air and come down with a normal. Useful for punishing pre-emptive anti airs.

If Izayoi is hit before the mode change, she will stay in her current form. However, this move is very fast so it's likely that Izayoi will change modes and then get hit.

  • 100% minimum damage
  • Limited Normal Mode confirms
  • Can be RC'd on the first hit for amazing proration and combo time
  • Wall bounces

Izayoi's throws are a bit awkward to combo from, as their wallbounce is influenced by screen position. Izayoi throws the opponent to the edge of the screen to wall bounce, so when you're near the corner they won't go fullscreen. Therefore, you end up with a lot of ways to adjust throw combos that you need to know. In normal mode, throw tends to yield poor reward as a midscreen starter, requiring Izayoi to sacrifice a knockdown or stocks compared to her usual starters. In corner, however, throw reward is generally better than what she gets from other common starters with a little optimisation.

The first hit of throw can be RC'd for huge damage and amazing proration, not to mention an incredibly flexible hit state, making throw an extremely dangerous option with various resources.

Almost entirely the same as forward throw, but allows you to adjust your spacing properly. Certain spacings in relation to the corner will yield a good combo off backwards throw, but not forward throw! Interestingly enough, delaying your RC before the second hit can allow you to side swap to create better positioning for a followup combo.

  • 100% minimum damage
  • Great rising Air to Air
  • Consistent combos regardless of height
  • Ground bounces

Grabs the opponent and dive bombs them. Has great corner carry depending on the height at which you catch them. Because Izayoi always dive bombs and ground bounces, this air throw is very consistent. Compliments Izayoi's air normals thanks to its high hitbox. However, it comes with a lot more recovery on whiff. Does have a bit of landing recovery, but landing during the startup or active can negate it. Pretty similar to her ground throws in terms of comboability, but sacrifices good spacing in exchange for consistency and shorter combo time. Unfortunately, can't be RC'd on the first hit like its grounded counterparts.

  • Amazing vertical hitbox
  • Great positioning on hit for tech option cover
  • Launches the opponent
  • Longer untech time on CH, but opponent can still air tech

One of the best Counter Assaults in the game, this move has great horizontal and vertical range. The animation mirrors her GA 6C, but with a slightly shorter step. This is very useful, as it can catch someone attempting to jump on their pressure instead of going underneath. Coupled with its high vertical range, sometimes it can be difficult to punish. Additionally, it'll send the opponent flying regardless of CH state. This gives Izayoi amazing breathing room regardless of the mode she's in.

Pretty standard Crush Trigger, but carries extremely short horizontal range. Pretty difficult to combo into without spending lots of resources, and those confirms usually only yield an increase of around 400 to 500 damage. However, when CT is comboable easily, the increase in damage is significant and is almost always worth the meter, usually increasing the damage by about 1000. Funnily enough, can stuff a significant amount of air approaches.

  • Versatile in neutral and pressure

Izayoi's signature projectile. A small, fast moving shot that flies straight ahead. Plays a huge role in her neutral game. Like the rest of her specials in normal mode, Sonic Sabre generates one Zero Weave stock on block and two on hit. Neutral on block at point blank, making it a solid pressure reset, but its startup can get stuffed by fast normals on IB. Notably, Izayoi's shooting animation can make her evade some reversals.


  • Great air to ground and footsies tool

The air version of Sonic Sabre. Has a slightly faster startup, stopping Izayoi's momentum and making her rise while shooting the projectile. After the recovery, Izayoi can move freely, but still carries the landing recovery until she hits the floor (meaning it is possible to be blocking on the way down and still be punished on landing, so cancel the falling animation with something if possible). Very important neutral tool, stuffing many anti air moves and approaches.

  • Decent space control against jumps
  • Can be held
  • Cancelable into A/B/C Mirage Thruster on hit or block
  • Counter Hit causes untech until opponent hits the ground

Izayoi's only dedicated anti-air. She moves forward a little bit, so there's a bit of a deadzone right above her head when attempting to use the head invulnerability to attack. Generally, its usage is going to revolve around controlling space at its max range, though neglecting it while on defense is a big mistake. A bit difficult to use as an anti-air thanks to needing a 623 motion, but still very plausible thanks to how quickly the head invincibility kicks in. In normal mode, 623B lacks combo options unless you are in the corner or get a counterhit. Its speed and angle also allow you to score stocks late in a combo when a jump cancel or 623C ender aren't in the cards.

  • Useful frame trap
  • Can be held
  • Cancelable into A/B/C Mirage Thruster on hit or block

236B functions mainly as a pressure tool and a combo part. In pressure, it is used to create respect. functioning as a very good frame trap. Off of 5B and 2B on block, it catches jump startup after both normal block and IB. In conjunction with being a low, it's relatively easy to make your opponent stay on the ground. The threat of this move can go a long way, carrying the same animation as 236C on charge, making feints very deceptive. In combos, this move causes a hard knockdown on standing/crouching hit, allowing combos with A or B teleport to affect positioning. Relatively negative on block, but can be canceled into teleports.

  • Great vertical hitbox but poor horizontal range. Be careful of opponents trying to keep their distance to bait it
  • Can be held before released for a total of 100 frames, but loses its invincibility early on (frame 16).

  • Like most meterless reversals, this move is very unsafe on block, so be careful not to abuse it too much unless you can back it up with a Rapid Cancel.

Izayoi's DP. Slow and fairly poor horizontal range. However, you can use a 0f microdash to extend its effective horizontal range as a reversal, and it's got great vertical range that can help cover angles which Izayoi's other anti-airs might not. Common combo ender that sacrifices damage for stocks and a good knockdown that allows you to go for a safejump or shift into Gain Art.

Izayoi teleports a preset distance to a location based on whichever button you use to activate the move. A teleports in place, B teleports forward and C teleports backwards. All versions can be canceled into attacks towards the end of the teleport animation, making teleport cancels (mostly A version) potentially faster than the normal move recovery, allowing you to link buttons off moves like 236B.

Note that A/B/C teleport cancels are almost never safe on block and can usually be punished if the opponent reacts properly (even the C version) so don't overuse it on block.

Izayoi's metered reversal, boasting an amazing horizontal hitbox. Good if your opponent expects you to do Aegis Blade on wakeup and spaces to beat its poor horizontal hitbox. Extremely fast startup, great active window and a ton of invincibility. As of CF, it is easily punishable on block, so be very careful when using it on your wake up. During Overdrive, Justice Phorizer gains range (reaches almost fullscreen), damage, and untechable time. Minimum damage is 750 (900 during Overdrive).

On startup, Izayoi thrusts her blade formward. If if connects, she commands her bits to attack her opponent, ending with a cross attack. Puts Izayoi in Active Flow if she hasn't already been in it already. On Active Flow, the bits attack more times. Works like most EAs (low minimum damage, cannot be rapid cancelled).

Absurdly safe on block because of the pushback. Some characters can punish it, but only on instant block at a very close space. The range is also absurdly long because Izayoi lunges forward. Can be jumped like most EAs, though.

Izayoi's Astral. She first charges towards the opponent, and upon successfully connecting proceeds to throw a lance in a very Super Robot Wars-Esque cutscene. Extremely comboable, working off of C normals, all throws...the list goes on. With such quick startup, it is arguably one of the better and more practical Astral finishes in the game.

  • Whiffs most crouching hitboxes.
  • Allows for combo extension after a high hitting jC.

Relatively standard 5A. Izayoi's fastest move, and is used to pick up from some air combos. Has a very decent end hitbox, though the range is very short. Can be used to stuff horizontal air approaches that fall into it's range. Whiffs some crouchers, but only under specific circumstances. As such, it's usage for whiffing crouching hitboxes is relatively inconsistent, but that inconsistency does make it a bit tricky to defend against.

  • Very long reach for it's speed.
  • Vital footsies tool in conjunction with 2B.
  • One of Izayoi's best pokes.

While 5B is a bit on the slow side, it makes up for it with its range. This move is capable of tagging most characters from round start positions. This move does come with hurtbox extensions (and can be low profiled, especially near the tip of the hitbox) but in tandem with other moves to cover low profiles, it demands a lot of respect. Can be confirmed into 236B or 236C at any range. Commonly cancelled into Sonic Sabre for pressure.

In Gain Art, 5B, along with its counterpart 2B, become very important for confirms due to the poor range of GA's C normals.

  • Fast, high damage combo starter.
  • Izayoi's only jump cancelable C normal on block.

This normal packs a punch. Solid base damage, prorates well, and opens up a good amount of combo options in certain situations. Cornerstone in Gain Art combos, usually being used to combo into 2C(GA) or go into an air combo. Also cancelable into 6B, where Normal Mode 5C is not. Comes with a very high crossup hitbox, making it great for air unblockable crossups and general confirms. Also plays a huge role in GA pressure, allowing Izayoi to close space with an airdash if necessary.

A kick with a solid amount of range. Standard speed for a 2A, but recovers incredibly fast and leaves her plus. It's also a low. Can only be used twice per string. Like most 2As, this cancels into throw. However, it's often better to go for 5Aw > B+C in order to TRM an opponent.

  • Great range
  • Low profile

A bit similar in usage to 2A, but comes with a bit more startup and extra range. New gatling into 2B from 5B provides a way to keep respect during midrange strings. The range also comes into play with Izayoi's restrictive cancel states after teleports, where 2B's extra reach becomes indispensable. Pretty good at footsies and picking up OTG combos from 236B.

Slightly nerfed as a starter from CPEX since it is now S starter (same as 2A), but still has better starting proration than 2A and is faster than 5B.

  • Huge damage, untechable time, and prorates very well
  • High frame advantage and vacuum on 2nd hit

This move prorates only once for both hits, and comes with super high base damage and untechable time. Beyond combos, it is also a staple part of her Gain Art blockstrings, demanding a ton of respect. Frametraps from and into 5C, forcing a reaction from the opponent, whether it be a reversal, barrier, or IB. Despite all of this, the range is relatively small, but being in range to use it properly makes it extremely useful.

In BBCF, 6A lost it's 110% Bonus Proration and its previous gatling capabilities got changed. Being jump-cancellable on block and cancellable to almost all other normals, it finds use in pressure early into a blockstring. It is mostly seen in Gain Art combos, letting you combo from a high hitting Strike Fall and provide enough hitstun to continue with moves such as 2C(1) or EA.

Has more range than 5C, making it preferable in pressure when you're out of range for that normal. Also forces crouch for certain FC combos.

  • Low invulnerable
  • Feintable (Hold B to Feint)
  • 110% Bonus Proration

Izayoi's standing overhead. Now special cancelable (mostly into air slashes) on hit or block, which makes it great for stock gain, and a staple filler in corner gain art combos due to it knocking down on air hit. It is also useful for beating anticipated foot property moves. Funnily enough, can be feinted, though the overall speed and recovery makes this more of a parlor trick than anything, since it can be fuzzy mashed everytime. Cancellable from 5C/2C (gain art mode). Generally outshined by Izayoi's other mixup tools, but she has so many that it can't hurt to throw this one in from time to time.

If Slaver Trans-Am is active, the bits still attack even if the move is feinted. This allows for gimmicky pseudo-F-Shiki mixups where you trick them into blocking high with the startup of 6B, then hit their standing hurtbox with rising j.A.

6C(GA) provides similar advantage to Normal Mode 6C stance cancel during pressure. The hitbox goes very high, so you can tag a lot of jump outs with this, especially if you delay it. Has lost much of its untechable time but still finds great uses in both midscreen and corner combos due to it's function on granting extra height. Now acts as a Fatal Counter, granting enough time to combo with 2C after waiting for the opponent to fall.

  • Go-to, Fatal Counter punish in GA
  • Hard knockdown on counterhit.
  • High base damage and good prorate

Great damage on counterhit. Don't just throw this out however, as it is punishable (though you can do some neat option selects to confirm it using OD to stay safe). On hit or block, 3C's cancel properties are a bit interesting. You can special cancel it only on hit, but can OD cancel it on hit or block. Of course, you can RC in both situations. Regardless, the move is useful as a combo tool by closing space and keeping your opponent low to the ground, and can even function as a combo ender.

  • Fast mixup tool

  • Great for an IOH off of GA Dash

jA is a staple air to air tool, boasting only 9 frames of recovery and whiff cancelable capability to back up its amazing range. This normal is great, and even cancels into airthrow for TRM setups. Doesn't turn into a lot of damage as a starter, but can create a great situation for you at a very low risk. In pressure, the fastest possible dash jA can now be canceled into a second jA before hitting the ground. This means you can set up 50/50s with j.A and 2A, while increasing frame advantage and giving you extra mixup and combo opportunities with the second j.A.

Significantly buffed from CPEX, the new animation has a much longer horizontal hitbox, a higher vertical hitbox and a very strong crossup hitbox, at the cost of being one frame slower than before. Still fast enough to function as a strong mixup tool, while still reaping the rewards of a good combo starter rating, and can gatling back into j.A for a falling fuzzy overhead on grounded opponents. Its usage is slightly limited by how good her other air normals are, but is still one of the better options for hitting opponents higher up in the air than you.

  • Enormous hitbox
  • Sets up fuzzy guard mixups

This normal is THE staple in Izayoi's GA approach. Huge, very hard to disrespect. Beats a ton of anti airs, air to airs, movement options, and other extended hitboxes. Amazing space control, and serves well off single jumps, superjumps, airdashes, backwards airdashes, you name it. Crossups, fuzzy mixups, neutral, this normal is all purpose. Takes a bit of respect to get going on offense due to speed, but can open up a ton of approach and mixup options. Make your opponent respect this, you won't regret it. Used in conjunction with air Sonic Sabre and other movement options, this normal is what makes Gain Art so threatening.

  • Changes from Gain Art to Normal Mode, or vice versa
  • Mode Switch on 11F

5D and 2D are a bit similar on the surface, but there are 2 major things that may make you want to use one over the other. Firstly, the hurtboxes vary. 2D produces a longer horizontal hurtbox, and 5D a longer vertical hurtbox. This also comes into play with mode change combos, where you may increase frame advantage during D saber combos by moving your opponent's hurtbox in a certain way by either standing or crouching. This is hurtbox-specific, so mess around with it! Secondly, 5D cuts all grounded momentum and 2D preserves it, meaning a Mode Change combo into a pickup will prefer to use dash 2D to close space, or maybe even 5D to retain it.

If Izayoi is hit before the mode change, she will stay in her current form. However, this move is very fast so it's likely that Izayoi will change modes and then get hit.

  • Changes from Gain Art to Normal Mode, or vice versa
  • Mode Change on 11F
  • Pauses Air Momentum
  • Considered to be in CH state during the change

A bit more useful than 5D or 2D, jD falls in between the two in terms of their properties. Because it halts momentum to a degree, you can use it to stall in the air and come down with a normal. Useful for punishing pre-emptive anti airs.

If Izayoi is hit before the mode change, she will stay in her current form. However, this move is very fast so it's likely that Izayoi will change modes and then get hit.

  • 100% minimum damage
  • Great Gain Art conversions
  • Can be RC'd on the first hit for amazing proration and combo time
  • Wall bounces

Izayoi's throws are a bit awkward to combo from, as their wallbounce is influenced by screen position. Izayoi throws the opponent to the edge of the screen to wall bounce, so when you're near the corner they won't go fullscreen. Therefore, you end up with a lot of ways to adjust throw combos that you need to know. In Gain Art, throw really outshines other common starters. The first hit of throw can be RC'd for huge damage and amazing proration, not to mention an incredibly flexible hit state, making throw an extremely dangerous option with various resources.

  • Can be RC'd on the first hit for amazing proration and combo time

Almost entirely the same as forward throw, but allows you to adjust your spacing properly. Certain spacings in relation to the corner will yield a good combo off backwards throw, but not forward throw! Interestingly enough, delaying your RC before the second hit can allow you to side swap to create better positioning for a followup combo.

  • 100% minimum damage
  • Great rising Air to Air
  • Consistent combos regardless of height
  • Ground bounces

Grabs the opponent and dive bombs them. Has great corner carry depending on the height at which you catch them. Because Izayoi always dive bombs and ground bounces, this air throw is very consistent. Compliments Izayoi's air normals thanks to its high hitbox. However, it comes with a lot more recovery on whiff. Does have a bit of landing recovery, but landing during the startup or active can negate it. Pretty similar to her ground throws in terms of comboability, but sacrifices good spacing in exchange for consistency and shorter combo time. Unfortunately, can't be RC'd on the first hit like its grounded counterparts.

  • Amazing vertical hitbox
  • Great positioning on hit for tech option cover
  • Launches the opponent
  • Longer untech time on CH, but opponent can still air tech

One of the best Counter Assaults in the game, this move has great horizontal and vertical range. The animation mirrors her GA 6C, but with a slightly shorter step. This is very useful, as it can catch someone attempting to jump on their pressure instead of going underneath. Coupled with its high vertical range, sometimes it can be difficult to punish. Additionally, it'll send the opponent flying regardless of CH state. This gives Izayoi amazing breathing room regardless of the mode she's in.

  • High damage followups
  • Can be used to set up standing resets

Pretty standard Crush Trigger, but carries extremely short horizontal range. Pretty difficult to combo into without spending lots of resources, and those confirms usually only yield an increase of around 400 to 500 damage. However, when CT is comboable easily, the increase in damage is significant and is almost always worth the meter, usually increasing the damage by about 1000. Funnily enough, can stuff a significant amount of air approaches.

  • Versatile in neutral and pressure
  • Cancelable into D Mirage Thruster on hit, block, or whiff

Izayoi's signature projectile. A small, fast moving shot that flies straight ahead. Plays a huge role in her neutral game. Neutral on block at point blank, making it a solid pressure reset, but its startup can get stuffed by fast normals on IB. Notably, Izayoi's shooting animation can make her evade some reversals.


  • Great air to ground and footsies tool
  • Cancellable into D Mirage Thruster on hit, block, or whiff

The air version of Sonic Sabre. Has a slightly faster startup, stopping Izayoi's momentum and making her rise while shooting the projectile. After the recovery, Izayoi can move freely, but still carries the landing recovery until she hits the floor (meaning it is possible to be blocking on the way down and still be punished on landing, so cancel the falling animation with something if possible). Very important neutral tool, stuffing many anti air moves and approaches.

Shoots three Sonic Sabers in a fan pattern. The projectiles hang in place for a bit longer than the A version, making it more advantageous on hit or block from further away. Much harder to avoid in general, allowing you to force your opponent to block and/or eat a mixup.

Izayoi's only dedicated anti-air. She moves forward a little bit, so there's a bit of a deadzone right above her head when attempting to use the head invulnerability to attack. Generally, its usage is going to revolve around controlling space at its max range, though neglecting it while on defense is a big mistake. A bit difficult to use as an anti-air thanks to needing a 623 motion, but still very plausible thanks to how quickly the head invincibility kicks in. In Gain Art, you can convert from it relatively easily thanks to moves like Strike Fall and D Mirage Thruster. Also functions as a late combo tool, opening up Strike Fall confirms when otherwise impossible.

One of the big parts of Izayoi's ground game. Extremely long reach, fast, and relatively safe. Your opponent needs to respect this move. In GA, can be hit/block canceled into Valkyrie Astraea past frame 3, extending the threatening range by a bit. On counterhit, combo options open up depending on spacing and resources. Attack comes out 4 frames after release, making it a great reactionary tool for neutral footsies.

236B functions mainly as a pressure tool and a combo part. In pressure, it is used to create respect. functioning as a very good frame trap. Off of 5B and 2B on block, it catches jump startup after both normal block and IB. In conjunction with being a low, it's relatively easy to make your opponent stay on the ground. The threat of this move can go a long way, carrying the same animation as 236C on charge, making feints very deceptive. In combos, this move causes a hard knockdown on standing/crouching hit, allowing combos with A or B teleport to affect positioning. Relatively negative on block, but can be canceled into teleports and Astraea.

Cancels stance from held Crusade Seraphim. Has a fairly fast animation (17f total if input immediately) that can be used to sneak in pressure resets and cancel certain moves (such as throw) to enable combos. In BBCF, all versions of the stance cancel are the same speed (the slower ones being buffed to 236C cancel speed). GA by default has great frame data and generally doesn't need to stance cancel for that, but you can still use it for some tricky offense through stance cancelling 2C to mess with people trying to IB or barrier the second hit.

  • Izayoi's DP
  • Fully invincible until frame 16
  • Great vertical hitbox but poor horizontal range. Be careful of opponents trying to keep their distance to bait it
  • Can be held before released for a total of 100 frames, but loses its invincibility early on (frame 16).
  • Also used as a combo ender in order to set up j.5C/5B or D saber oki.
  • Like most meterless reversals, this move is very unsafe on block, so be careful not to abuse it too much unless you can back it up with a Rapid Cancel.
  • Cancelable into D Mirage Thruster and Strike Fall on hit.
  • Cancelable into D Mirage Thruster on startup/whiff/block during OD

Izayoi's DP. Slow and fairly poor horizontal range. However, you can use a 0f microdash to extend its effective horizontal range as a reversal, and it's got great vertical range that can help cover angles which Izayoi's other anti-airs might not. Also useful in combos as a stockless knockdown tool, is cancellable into Strike Fall and 214D on hit.

  • Consumes 1 Zero Weave stock
  • Gains multiple hits and deals more damage in OD

Izayoi's staple combo ender. Doable only in Gain Art, Strike Fall serves as a follow up to Crusade Seraphim Alpha and Aegis Blade. It is only possible to do Strike Fall on hit, so you can option select your confirms into Strike Fall and commit to another cancel option on block or whiff. On hit, has an enormous amount of untechable time, usually leading into some kind of workable knockdown. More advantageous the higher you do it from; can almost always link into 5A, 5C, or Justice Phorizer for a combo extension, or 6A or 5B from higher knockdowns.

Izayoi teleports a preset distance to a location based on whichever button you use to activate the move. A teleports in place, B teleports forward and C teleports backwards. The A, B, and C teleports are doable in both Normal Mode and Gain Art. The D version of the teleport is doable only in Gain Art and requires 1 Zero Weave stock and tracks the opponent (it always puts you behind them whether on the ground or in the air). All versions can be canceled into attacks towards the end of the teleport animation, making teleport cancels (mostly A version) potentially faster than the normal move recovery, allowing you to link buttons off moves like 236B.

Note that A/B/C teleport cancels are almost never safe on block and can usually be punished if the opponent reacts properly (even the C version) so don't overuse it on block.

Izayoi's metered reversal, boasting an amazing horizontal hitbox. Extremely fast startup, great active window and a ton of invincibility. As of CF, it is easily punishable on block, so be very careful when using it on your wake up. During Gain Art, it can be canceled into D Mirage Thruster on hit, most commonly used for double Phorizer combos. During Overdrive, Justice Phorizer gains range (reaches almost fullscreen), damage, and untechable time. Minimum damage is 750 (900 during Overdrive).

  • Only can be activated during Gain Art. But Gain Art can be switched off and on afterwards as normal if desired.
  • Timer normally lasts 6 seconds, but decreases at half the speed while overdrive is active. Whether this move was activated during overdrive is irrelevant.
  • During Slaver Trans-Am, attacking with any normal move will also attack with the shield bits. Special, distortion and universal mechanic moves (Except Counter Assault) do not trigger the bit attacks.
  • Bit attacks cover a disatance similar to 5B, but aim diagonally downwards from their start point of hovering behind Izayoi at about head height.
  • Shield bits will only attack if they have completely recovered from any previous attack.
  • Bit attacks are active the moment they move, but take approximately 10 frames to reach full distance to hit your opponent
  • Bit attacks only start when the normal move triggering it goes active. For multi hit moves, the attack only starts when the final hit goes active.
  • Interrupting the normal move in any way before the bits attack will prevent the attack.
  • Bit attacks uniquely have 100% P1 and P2, meaning they will always increase combo damage when used.

A move that allows you to take command of close range neutral games, giving you considerable safe pressure. The extra hits this can allow can allow certain combos that normally would not work as well as making basically every normal move safe. With constant attacking, you can get a max of 4 attacks out of the bits before they disappear (8 in Overdrive), so it's not worth activating this if you have to cover some distance to get to your opponent. Has a long superflash animation and is invulnerable during the superflash animation only. It can still be used as a pause button for certain situations.

On startup, Izayoi thrusts her blade formward. If if connects, she commands her bits to attack her opponent, ending with a cross attack. Puts Izayoi in Active Flow if she hasn't already been in it already. On Active Flow, the bits attack more times. Works like most EAs (low minimum damage, cannot be rapid cancelled).

Absurdly safe on block because of the pushback. Some characters can punish it, but only on instant block at a very close space. The range is also absurdly long because Izayoi lunges forward. Can be jumped like most EAs, though.

Izayoi's Astral. She first charges towards the opponent, and upon successfully connecting proceeds to throw a lance in a very Super Robot Wars-Esque cutscene. Extremely comboable, working off of C normals, all throws...the list goes on. With such quick startup, it is arguably one of the better and more practical Astral finishes in the game.
