Overview
- Great Buttons: Zooey has an excellent suite of long reaching and safe pokes, with f.M and 2M being particularly great. She also has an armored move she can combo fromGuardMidStartup15Recovery-Advantage-8, allowing her to counterpoke with high reward.
- Summon Dragon SeriesGuardAllStartup17RecoveryTotal 45Advantage-2: An exceptional projectile which has monstrous frame advantage and makes Zooey's control over the midrange very strong. It's also hard to contest with projectiles, as M and H Summon Dragon are multi-hit projectiles that originate from Lyrn's position.
- Potent Okizeme: Zooey's direct control over H Thunder with Negative Edge allows her to combo after autocombo high/lows and 66MGuardHighStartup26Recovery-Advantage-6 while also being able to extend pressure if the opponent blocks it.
- Oppressive Pressure: Zooey's access to plus frames from Summon Dragon and 66L paired with her already strong pokes and Thunder okizeme forces opponents to block for much longer than most characters in Granblue's cast.
- Meterless Defense: Zooey has no meterless reversal, relying on one of her Ultimate SkillsGuardMidStartup8Recovery24Advantage-10 as her cheapest invulnerable option.
- Setup Oriented: Most times Zooey hits her opponent and goes for an extension, she is routing for okizeme and not damage. Her main combo extender, 214H, doesn't deal much damage on its own and it scales for both that hit and the follow-up BisectionGuardMidStartup19Recovery24Advantage-11.
Dragon Gauge allows Zooey to control Lyrn and have him do various attacks independently of her. Summon Dragon puts Lyrn out into the battlefield, with each version taking a certain amount of the gauge, and can be done for as long as it's not empty. Lyrn will only despawn and go into cooldown once the gauge is fully depleted.
Zooey starts off each round with 50% of Dragon Gauge, which can be refilled using Convergence and The Last Wish. Zooey can also regain Dragon gauge offensively with meter by using Ultimate Summon Dragon. While Lyrn is in cooldown, refilling rate is significantly reduced. While he's in the battlefield, on top of reduced refill rate, the gauge is also depleted every time Zooey gets knocked down. After cooldown is over, she gains 50% Dragon Gauge along with the ability to summon Lyrn again.Normal Moves

Zooey also has great ways to enforce this normal's frame advantage. f.L is the go-to off most hits, but late connects will allow for 2M, f.M, and f.H to work as frame traps and will also combo on crouching and/or counterhit.

Also shines as combo filler after extremely plus on hit attacks like IAS Ultimate LightningGuardAllStartup17RecoveryTotal 57Advantage+6 due to its high damage.

Zooey's fastest air normal. It has a good vertical but is otherwise pretty unremarkable. Has some very niche usage with fuzzy guard mixups using the Guard button to cancel landing recovery, but learning those are not necessary for knowing how to play Zooey and are generally unreliable due to difficulty. The animation looks a little bit like Zooey's air block animation, which can be faked by using the Guard button.

Holding Convergence will recharge Zooey's Dragon Gauge. The Last Wish (press 6L/M/H while charging) has strike invincibility and one hit of projectile clash, and will also charge 50% of the Dragon Gauge on hit.
While Lyrn is active or in cooldown, 5U charge speed is halved and The Last Wish on hit only charges for 16.7%. Exact values for Dragon Gauge can be found in Zooey's Frame Data page.
- Minimum 5U charge duration is 23 frames total and gains 8.5% Dragon Gauge
- Earliest The Last Wish cancel from 5U is on frame 16 (Total startup: 20)
- When charging enough to hit at 27th frame and above, the move gains +9 frame advantage on-Block and on-Hit (shown with [ ] ). It allows for an autotimed meaty with MH Raging Strike when the opponent is in corner.

Zooey gets an autotimed Safe Jump from both versions.
Zooey cannot combo from her throw using H Thunder setups in the corner, it's more beneficial to her to whiff the lightning strikes during the cinematic portion of the move to retain the throw's hard knockdown and start getting the timer back.

- Very situationally can lead to a combo.
This throw can also be picked up after like her ground throw, but it's much harder due to the natural variance in timing of it being an airthrow. The hard knockdown will allow for Thunder or Summon Dragon, but it may not be perfectly meaty.

Zooey calls Lyrn to perform one of three actions. Each action takes a certain amount of Zooey's Dragon Gauge, and can be done for as long as the gauge is not empty. Lyrn will despawn once the gauge is fully depleted and go on 12 second cooldown. All three of these specials will set Lyrn in place wherever he stops for about three seconds. Afterwards, Lyrn returns to float by Zooey's side. While set or floating by Zooey, Lyrn cannot be hit.
- Immortal Thrust (236L)
Clashes with other projectiles and re-positions Lyrn. Immortal Thrust has amazing frame advantage for a projectile and will usually be plus at Zooey's maximum poking range.
- Costs 1/20th of the Dragon meter.
- Always teleports Lyrn to Zooey's position before launching.
- Heavy Breath (236M)
Incredible as an anti-zoning and combo tool as it launches on hit. The launch is long enough for Zooey to jump and use j.U in the corner. Because it comes out at Lyrn's position, Zooey can use Lyrn to clash with the opponent's projectile and then use Heavy Breath afterwards to stop any further attempts at using projectiles due to its multiple hits.
- Costs 1/6th of the Dragon meter.
- Activates at Lyrn's position unless Zooey is closer.
- Lyrn will teleport to Zooey if he is behind the opponent and farther than half screen.
- Lyrn will reposition so the entire move can hit if he is too close to the corner.
- Sweeping Beam (236H)
Sweeping Beam is an excellent neutral complement to Heavy Breath. It hits at a different timing than Heavy Breath, which will catch dodges and rolls. It launches high enough to allow for a link into 66H in the corner and 236U anywhere to regain Dragon meter.
- Costs 1/5th of the Dragon meter.
- Activates at Lyrn's position unless Zooey is closer.
- Lyrn will teleport to Zooey if he is behind the opponent and farther than half screen.
- Lyrn will reposition so the entire move can hit if he is too close to the corner.

Zooey moves forward and swings her blade. The distance covered changes depending on the button pressed; L moves the least distance, M and H move the same distance. Chains into two different followups which properties change depending on the strength.
- 214L
Zooey's standard confirm tool. Combos from all buttons except c.L and 2L (even on CH). Generally the more consistent of the resourceless versions as Bisection's airtech does not allow for the same getup options as a soft knockdown.
- Ray Strike follow-up inflicts a soft knockdown on hit.
- Bisection follow-up forces an airtech.
- 214M
Can only be cancelled into for a natural combo from Triple Attack enderGuardMidStartup12Recovery18Advantage-4, c.H, f.H, and 2H. Being inherently more situational, it deals a little more damage and changes the properties of the follow-ups.
- Ray Strike and Bisection follow-ups inflict a soft knockdown on hit.
- 214H
Combos from the same things that the L version does. Zooey's main corner launcher that routes into her best setups. Be careful with this move as it is highly unsafe on block.
- Ray Strike follow-up inflicts a soft knockdown on hit.
- Bisection follow-up launches and links into c.M against grounded opponents in the corner.

Ray Strike is the less often used follow-up. It can be combo-ed from if it hits late against airborne opponents, but Bisection is more useful as an ender due to its forced airtech from 214L or launch from 214H.

- Value in [] is when the rising portion whiffs.
Zooey leaps into the air before crashing down to the ground. The L version has no hitbox while rising and is generally useless. The M version has a rising hit that connects against airborne opponents which is useful for ending corner combos. The H version is similar but the rising hit will connect against grounded opponents as well while being advantageous on block. The M and H versions make for good anti-airs, as they have some head invincibility and combo into the descending hits on air connect.

- First data value refers to the held version.
- Data in () is for the unheld version when the sword stab and lightning hit.
- Data in [] is if only the lightning hits from the unheld version.
- Earliest possible lightning happens after the 15 frame startup of the sword hit and the 19 frame startup of the lightning itself (34).
Zooey strikes the ground with her blade and calls down lightning in one of three areas. The blade strike itself has a hitbox. The strike point for the lightning depends on which button was pressed, marked by a glowing group of sparks on the ground. The minimum range on the L and M versions makes the lightning summon harmlessly offscreen when done in the corner.
The lightning strike itself can be delayed by holding L, M, H, or the Skill Button and will fall shortly after Zooey is no longer holding an attack button (except U or G) or after about three seconds of holding, allowing Zooey to coordinate with the strikes to extend her pressure. The button(s) being held can be switched freely without the lightning striking as long as at least one of the attack buttons is held. Learning how to move the held lightning from the H button to the S button is an important skill for playing Zooey, as it frees up her face buttons to do more complex mixups when covered by the lightning.
- 22L
General purpose blockstring ender if no other cooldowns are available. Makes a good amount of space from Zooey with decent frame advantage.
- Calls lightning closest to Zooey.
- 22M
The M version goes out farther than the third hit of the H version. Great as a neutral tool when held or unheld as Zooey can threaten space with 22[M] and Lyrn while potentially charging Dragon meter with Last WishGuardStartupRecoveryTotal 23-368Advantage-.
- Calls lightning farthest from Zooey.
- 22H
Covers the area between the front of Zooey and the area just slightly before M lightning range. 22[H] is her main setplay tool in the corner, as all three lightning bolts will strike in sequence. This allows her to combo after things like 66M and 2U, or get more damage after moves like 2L. Notably, 22]H[ does not allow for a combo after throw. The best way to set up 22H is to make the first hit whiff with an air flipout, as that gives Zooey more time before the lightning falls automatically.
- Hits multiple times, starting close to Zooey and traveling outwards.
- Pushes opponent away midscreen but has no pushback in the corner due to being a projectile.

Zooey fires lightning down at an angle. The j.22L fires the projectile close to her while j.22M fires it further away. j.22H fires both at once, and also goes even further than j.22M. Zooey's momentum is stalled while using this, so it is very useful as anti-anti-air or as a tool to keep the opponent on the ground. j.22H will only hard knockdown on airborne opponents.

236U | 2500 | Mid | 15 | Total 66 [102] | -13 | HKD +30 |
Summons the Peacemaker's Wings for a fullscreen impact. While the projectile is travelling, Zooey will automatically charge her Dragon meter, and she will charge even more if it successfully hits the opponent.
Incredible. 236U is an incredibly tall and incredibly high-priority projectile that will bust through any other projectiles heading her way. She can confirm it off of many of her other projectiles at a distance and it's relatively safe when used outside of close range. Additionally, this move is air unblockable, making it dangerous to jump at any range vs Zooey. This move should be on her opponent's mind whenever she has 50 meter.
Care must still be taken when using this move against savvy opponents. Zooey will always initiate a wyvern gauge charging animation, even on block and whiff. The projectile can be rolled through on reaction, which leads to a punish if they're close enough.
- Out-prioritizes other projectiles, destroying them.
- Upon using the move, Zooey enters her 5U charging animation which fills 50% of the wyvern gauge if the wyvern has not yet been summoned.
- If the move successfully hits, Zooey will perform her 5U-6X animation and fill another 50% of the wyvern gauge if the wyvern has not yet been summoned, thus filling up the entire gauge.
- If the wyvern has been summoned, all wyvern-gauge charging is halved. In other words, using 236U will fill 25% of the gauge and hitting with it will fill another 25% for 50% total if the wyvern is currently out.

- Ground Version
Zooey performs a tracking version of Thunder that hits anywhere on screen. If she's close, the sword stab will Guard Crush and a secondary bolt of lightning will strike as an almost unavoidable unblockable attack. Opponent can beat the initial strike by mashing Zooey out of it (provided they have time), going through it with a reversal, spending BP to guard cancel it or spot dodging.
- Initial stab Guard Crushes.
- Cannot be used while 22H is being held.
- Air Version
Very different in usage to the ground version. Acts as a low risk, high reward throw crush. Performing this move immediately off the ground (easiest with IAS Instant Air Special
Conceptually includes Tiger KneePerforming a special as soon as possible after becoming airborne. Usually, but not always, involves an input trick.
For Example: 2369S for a j.236S input. j.SU) leaves Zooey at +6 on block and plus enough on hit to link a 66H anywhere.

- Deceptive range, advances forwards two character lengths.

Zooey reveals her true form as the Grand Order, then rushes forward to hit the opponent. Very slow and expensive, use 623U as a reversal instead. Deals great damage as a combo ender and leaves the opponent in a dangerous place with two less BP.
- Unusually high blockstun.
