Team Synergy

Point

This is where Labrys wants to be. Though her mixups aren't great, when backed by the proper assist she can put a lot of pressure on the opponent.

Depending on your team, she might be somewhat reliant on cross combos for mixups.

Anchor

Labrys' assists are okay, but don't have much utility. This makes her a poor support character.

Additionally, she struggles to maintain pressure without the benefit of an assist, limiting her strength as an anchor.

Recommended Partners

Vatista

Izayoi

Waldstein/Gordeau - Large, multi-hitting assists allow her to get in as well as pressure the opponent.

Hyde - generally good support character; Labrys appreciates the projectile assist.

General Tactics

While not quite as "UNGA" as some other characters, Labrys does have some large disjointed moves with her 5A and jB. Keeping up constant pressure benefits Labrys greatly, as your axe level will increase both on hit and on block.

Up close, 4A and 2A are your best pokes. At mid-range, use 5A, though keep in mind that at max range you will not be able to convert your 5A auto combo into your standard air combo, so it would be best to end it with either 2C or a special move.

At long range, you can use 236A/B to "poke", but you should be looking for opportunities to get back in close. You can use jB to approach in the air, and empty winch dash off 236B/C.

Because her supers get scaled heavily by combos, even with red axe, it's generally best to end your combos with a knockdown so you can continue pressure.

While red axe will allow you to do more damage with your regular combos, the main strength is how much damage a red axe super can do after a very short confirm. Because supers are un-burstable, you can use a red axe super to guarantee a kill.
