GGAC/Millia Rage

From Dustloop Wiki
Millia Rage

Overview

Millia is a very versatile character with arguably one of the best okizeme and mixups in the game with her tandem top and secret garden mixups. She is the 2nd fastest character in the game below chipp except with 2 airdashes and turbofall which allows her to alter her trajectory in the air. These options also make it difficult for the opponent to anti-air her. On top of that, she also has silent force which makes it difficult for opponents to anti-air her or approach her. This projectile is what helps her get in and start her oppressive rushdown and keeps the opponent guessing in neutral.

Despite being the 2nd fastest character, she also has the 2nd worst defense and will take heavy damage. She also lacks a reliable reversal out of pressure, so you will need to rely on Instant blocking, Dead Angle, or backdash to get out of pressure. You will need to move around constantly and avoid getting hit while fishing for hits to get a knockdown. You will need to rushdown intuitively also manage your pin and movement.

30 2.64 10 9 3 HA CJR 11 7 9 --

Your go to Air to air from far distances. Air dash cancelable makes it used for combos too. Untechable knockdown on counter-hit far away allowing secret garden from fullscreen or disc when close to the opponent. Horrible air-ground move for many characters can run under this move and punish it's recovery.

Throws

Throw

Damage Tension GB+ GB- Level Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Static Diff
50 4.00 -- 6 -- 40 dots -- -- -- -- --

Very important to your mixup game. The throw range is short, but her dash speed makes up for the range making this hard to see coming. Usually used after 214k. Dash and combo into 2p5p or f.S 2h when landed.

Air Throw
GGAC Millia airThrow.png
Damage Tension GB+ GB- Level Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Static Diff
55 4.00 -- 6 -- 88 dots -- -- -- -- --

Sends opponent flying away. Fullscreen gives you a secret garden setup allowing you to rushdown safely. If you airthrow opponent near corner, you can dash up and do H tandem top.

12×n 1.50/1.20×n 10×n 7×n 3 All R 10 1(3)xn 5 +5

Good for frame trap pressure on the ground being +5. On hit or block you can cancel into 214k to roll and go for a tick throw or 214p to go low. Accidental inputs such as mashing S will cause this move to come out so be careful.

Tandem Top

H 50 1.25/1.20 0 12 3 All F 60 33 Total: 32 --

236S: Has an FRC point in 3-4 Frames making it viable for ground pressure. Corner hit will let you link 5p into combo. 236H: Longer startup but longer active frames too. This is your primary staple for your mixups. You will be using this mainly for your non-meaty setups to mask your High/Low mixups. FRC timing in 20-21 frames which isn't used often because of 236D, but it still is applicable in matchups such as Baiken.

Bad Moon

Damage Tension GB+ GB- Level Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Static Diff
24×n 1.50/1.80×n 10×n 7×n 3 HA RF 11 till landing 22 after landing -15

A combo ender in the corner for extra damage which yields a knockdown at a low height. You won't be using this by throwing it out randomly. However, this is your main high mixup when TK'd (2369P). It becomes a 16F overhead that is fast. Very punishable on block so don't throw this out too often on neutral.

Turbo Fall

A roll that shrinks her hitbox and go under some attacks. Used mainly in pressure and tick throw setup. It is not throw-invincible though and can be punished on reaction if too predictable.

Haircar that hits low. The startup looks identical to going into a TK badmoon, so it looks like an overhead but she goes low. Your main low mixup choice. Avoid using this from fullscreen as it is punishable.

Silent Force

H 20 1.50/2.40 0 10 2 All -- 16 1(1)xn until hits ground or corner Total: 21 --

j.214S: This is your primary staple projectile and extremely crucial to your neutral game. Allows you to control the pace of the matchup as opponents will have to take in mind when you have it. Fish for counter-hits with this to force your way in. If they block it, you will be able to continue pressure on your opponent. This also serves as a crucial ender to her air combos j.214s land 6h allowing you to score an untechable knockdown. To pick up the pin on the floor, walk up to it and crouch.


j.214H: Has slightly slower startup, but gives you an extra boost before throwing. Good for positioning in the air if the opponent is catching on to the angle you are throwing j.214s at.

After inputting the special notation, you're allowed up to 5 directional inputs. Summons a bubble out that will go the direction you input it after the notation. Best places to use would be fullscreen and far from your opponent. Great for mixups and covering your rushdown when trying to get in, but slow startup.

Force Breaks

Pretty Maze

GGAC Millia 236D.png
Damage Tension GB+ GB- Level Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Static Diff
22×3 -- 14×3 5×3 4 All -- 43 41 Total: 29 --

Your staple force break for mixups. Pretty Maze will float on hit giving you the opportunity to launch the opponent up and combo again resetting the situation. It has longer active frames than H tandem top allowing to have more options for mixups. If they block the first you can do another one. On top of that, even if Millia gets hit the disc will still come out regardless.

Aerial Pretty Maze
j.236D
Damage Tension GB+ GB- Level Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Static Diff
50 -- 20 12 5 All -- 15 33 landing 12 --

Summons a disc in the air, alters her trajectory a bit and can be used for crossups. You can end your air combo with this, but does not give good okizeme positioning.

Her only reversal move that has invincible startup. Has an FRC point to make it safe, but it is not advised to rely on this to get out of pressure all the time.

Strategy

Your goal is to fish for a hit and convert that into a knockdown and plant H Tandem Top/Pretty Maze to run your okizeme. The movement options you have with 2 air dashes lets you maneuver around the air freely along with 2 jumps and an air dash. Your dash also gives a low-profile letting you avoid some character's moves such as Johnny's Mid Mist Finer. Silent force is your best friend when approaching in the air. With Silent Force in hand, the opponent has to keep in mind that you have it, and they cannot anti-air you for free. Once you are able to score a hit into knockdown, throw out H Tandem Top/Pretty Maze and do a high/low of choice. If they guess wrong, you can set up another situation.

Air movement options you have:

-1 Jump Two Airdashes

-2 Jumps One Airdash.


Offense

You have Silent Force to approach in the air as mentioned above. This is your key to approaching and getting in. You also want to use your movement options and j.236k to bait your opponent out. When approaching from ground, you have your low-profile dash. 2k, f.S, 2d are your main ground normals to use. Space with the tip of 2d to get your knockdown. Secret Garden can also assist you in covering your rushdown but keep in mind where you are to because you will get punished if you are too close to the opponent. Characters such as Slayer can get a free punish with Dead on Time and Big Bang Upper which can kill you so be careful.

High:

6k

TK Bad moon

Iron Savior FRC j.K: After doing the Iron Savior FRC, immediately do j.k giving you an instant overhead!


Low:

2k

2s

Iron Savior (214P)

TK Turbofall land 2k: Fake overhead into a low also can crossup the opponent.


Corner only H-Tandem/Pretty Maze

High:

IAD j.S airdash j.K j.S: High IAD Fuzzy guard mixup. You can substitute the j.K with j.S.

IAD falling airdash j.S: After the first IAD do an airdash close to the ground and press j.S


Low:

IAD j.S airdash land 2k/throw: Low variant of the airdash mixup. Throw can also be used.

IAD land 2k


Blockstrings:

2k 5k- Standard string, with 5k special jump cancelable, you can IAD over your opponent, tk badmoon, or gatling into 6k. You can also cancel into lust shaker for a frame trap.

2k 5k 2k-Basic blockstring, can do tick throw, roll, or continue pressure

2k 5k 2s 5p- Reverse gatling string. Dash up pressure or throw if the opponent respects this. If not, do 2d to catch them sweeping. 6h in the corner to catch jumpouts.

Defense

Millia has no reliable reversal out, so you need to rely on Instant Blocking and your Dead Angle. Your throw can help from time to time for it's range. You can also throw out Pretty Maze too if the opponent is charging recklessly. These are not the best options to depend on, so use them sparingly.

Combos

2k 5s 5h 2d 214k 236h

Standard ground confirm into knockdown. Starts up your okizeme midscreen.

Air Combos:These work anywhere on the screen.


2H j.K j.D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214S land 6H Basic Air combo which works on everyone except Johnny.


2H j.K j.S j.H airdash j.D airdash j.H/j.D j.214S land 6H Johnny variant but works on everyone. Delay the j.D a bit so that you are below the opponent.


2H j.K j.D airdash j.S j.H land j.K j.D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214S land 6H. Relaunch combo giving full corner carry. Timing is character specific and will not work on Johnny.


Throw dash f.S 2H j.D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214S land 6H Basic throw combo which works on everyone but Johnny. Immediately dash after the throw to hit confirm the f.S


Throw dash 2P 5P j.K j.D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214S land 6H Burst-safe version of the above combo.


Throw dash f.S 2H j.S j.H airdash j.D airdash j.H/j.D j.214s land 6H Johnny Variant for the throw combo



Anti-Air 6P 2H and 236H/D launch

Works from Anti-Air 6P confirms. Also for maximizing off a successful okizeme from 236H/D. You can omit the 6P from launch from 236H/D hit. All of these work on everyone but Johnny.


6P 2H j.H airdash j.D airdash j.S j.H land j.K j.D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214s land 6h

Most damaging combo you have off an Anti-Air/236H/D confirm. Timing is also character specific like the above relaunch.


6P 2H j.K j.D airdash j.D airdash j.S j.H land j.K j.D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214s land 6H

Easier than the above but does a bit less damage.


6P 2H j.7D airdash j.K j.D airdash j.D j.214S land 6h

Easiest confirm out of the 3. Jump back so that you have room to airdash and link the j.K j.D. Delay the first airdash slightly after the first j.D.
