oh god why cant i reflect
Videl's Z Reflect is replaced with a Spot Dodge, which functions differently compared to other Z Reflects.

5L
  • Pushes Videl slightly forward. Hits pretty high.
  • Stays stationary when done as 4LL.

It's a jab. Can whiff crouchers and short characters at max range.


5LL
  • Hits pretty high.

It's alright. Nothing to write home about.


5LLL
  • Switches sides on hit.
  • Cancelling into this from a blocked 5LL always leaves the opponent in too much blockstun for the throw to work.

It's a throw autocombo ender. It's pretty meh and doesn't really do much in terms of her kit.

1000 [1200] All 19 23 -2 (point blank)

  • Plows through smaller projectiles.
  • Jails into vanish.
  • Loses to superdash, but will oddly beat some projectile invulnerable moves.
  • Crazy hitstun, in the corner can link to 5L after a microdash, or even j.L or j.M if already close enough.

Videl calls the Great Saiyaman to do a dashing punch. Travels fullscreen very fast, at the cost of having a hurtbox. Interestingly, despite counting as a projectile, it'll beat multiple projectile invulnerable moves.

Doesn't have forced blockstun, so with some spacing Great Saiyaman can become plus on block.

600×2, 750 All 11 7 (14) 4 (18) 3 18 -5

  • A 3-hit combo normal.
  • Invincible to ki blast projectiles.
  • The gaps inbetween each hit beat buttons, but lose to reflects and reversals.
  • Special-cancellable on every hit and 6M cancellable as well.
  • 6H(x) delay 6M will beat reflect

Videl's command normal. Very useful for her grounded routes, as it allows her to not only have great corner carry but gives her a solid combo option that doesn't use up her Smash, which gives her potential to combo into her Level 1 and get extensions.

A bit of an interesting button in blockstrings. Most opponents will know to reflect the moment they see Videl's first hit, which may make it seem useless, but Videl also has lots of ways to bait and punish disrespecting 6H, such as 22X or 214X. Perhaps what's most useful about it is Videl herself still attacking if you tag, allowing her an easy escape to heal or get an ally in if needed.

750 All U1+ 9 3 19

  • Smash hit launches higher.
  • Very good vertical range, can be used to cover both uptech and normal tech after a sliding knockdown.
  • Does not change air momentum like other launching j.2H.

Extremely high hitstun even on non-Smash hit, allowing Videl to do non-Smash j.2H > SD among other things even in midscreen. This is the key to her obscene combo game as it allows for all manners of funky rejumps and links. It's also her most consistent way to combo into j.214L and j.236M to end combos, although this requires some setup. j.2H also makes for a decent safejump tool as it can be converted into a combo if her opponent uptechs and gets hit (unlike j.H).

4S Total 39 1-22 Non-throw
4S > 5S 700 All 7 7 30+15L -40 1-9 All

  • Deactivates Videl's collision box during frame 1-22 (intangible).
  • Invulnerable against all strike and projectile attacks beside Sparking Blast. Note that this is different from the Guardpoint of a normal Reflect.
  • Cancellable from Ki Blasts' blockstun.
  • Dodge is considered "successful" only if a hitbox passes through her. This is indicated with a sound effect and blue circle.
  • Successful dodges become fully invulnerable throughout recovery, cancellable into unique follow-up starting from frame 8, cancellable into any other actions starting from frame 36. Cancelling into actions will autocorrect to face the opponent.
  • Successful dodges do not give Videl any meter.
  • Unique follow-up is near identical to her DP (214S), with the only difference being their startups.

The best way to describe Spot Dodge is that it's different than Reflect. On one hand, Videl gets access to new punishes unlike any other character in the game, most notably being able to punish bad Vanishes. On the other, Spot Dodge does not push opponents away from her and she will often be horribly disadvantageous unless she gambles on using the follow-up.

Follow-up can be triggered by holding S and releasing directional input back to neutral, so inputting 4[S]~5 will give you the follow-up ASAP on successful dodge. Earliest possible 4S > 5S hits on frame 14 (2F slower than 214S).

236L 650 All 12 6 19 -8
236M 700 All 17 6 19 -8
236H 800 All 12 8 19 -8

All Versions
  • Videl's version of a lariat, which is also a rekka starter.
  • Pressing L during the move continues the rekka chain.
  • Pressing M during the move performs 22M.
  • Pressing H during the move performs 214H.
  • Re-centers the opponent on air hit.

L Version
  • Travels 1/4th of the screen.

Pretty meh. Outclassed in every way except for startup by 236M.


M Version
  • Travels 1/2 of the screen.

This is the version you'll be using most often in combos.


H Version
  • Travels 3/4ths of the screen.
  • As fast as the L version.

Surprisingly good to just throw out. While it's -8 on block like all the other versions, but Videl can frame trap after with the L follow-up or gamble on the others.

236X > H 800, 850[1000] Throw U1+ 21-22 6 14

236X~L
  • Hits overhead.
  • Doesn't use smash.
  • Doesn't have Head property, cannot be Anti-air'd.
  • Always has a gap from any version of 236X.

Videl does an elbow drop. Because it's an overhead (that must be blocked standing), it forms a good mixup between it and her 214X moves (which have to be crouched).


236X~LL
  • Doesn't use Smash.

Easiest place to fit in an assist extension as it keeps the opponent in place for a while and builds a ton of meter.


236L~LLL
  • LLL followup is 214S, but mid rekka.
  • Consumes Smash.
  • Wallbounces on hit.
  • Causes Videl to go into a landing animation if blocked, but not if she combos afterwards.
  • Cancelable into an airdash.

Your go-to meterless corner combo extender. Avoid using this midscreen as it leads to nothing and has very poor okizeme options.


236X/236X~L/236X~LL > M
  • M followup is 22M, but mid rekka.
  • Consumes Smash.
  • Invulnerable from frame 4 for some reason.

Command crossup from rekkas. Good to have. The best place for it is generally right after 236X as the opponent also has to worry about the initial high as well as a "low" from the H follow-up (or just recovering and using 2L).


236X/236X~L/236X~LL > H
  • H followup is 214H, but mid rekka.
  • Consumes Smash.
  • Cannot hit crouching opponents.

Command grab from rekkas. Forms a basic mixup with the L follow up, but it's more expensive than stopping after 236X and using 2L.

j.236M 500, 550 All D1 16 6 18
j.236H 600, 600 All D1 8 7 18

All Versions
  • One of Videl's two air combo enders.
  • Can be used as an extra air option.

L Version
  • Soft knockdown on hit.

This is Videl's primary combo extender with an assist, as it outdamages j.H. It also is not tied to a U1+ cinematic which makes it especially useful after 2H.


M Version
  • Sliding knockdown with D1 Smash, soft knockdown without.

This is the air combo ender. If you can combo into j.2H (at the right height) this move is all but guaranteed.


H Version
  • Sliding knockdown with D1 Smash, soft knockdown without.

More useful as a mobility tool than as a combo ender, but still cool regardless.

All Versions
  • Treated as a command grab.
  • Whiffs against crouching opponents.
  • Only one command grab is allowed per combo.

L Version
  • Always slides on first use.

Videl's other combo ender. If your D1 and U1 smashes are used up, route into this.


M Version
  • Tap M for a sliding knockdown, hold M to use a U1 Smash combo starter/extender.

Slower and therefore less useful.


H Version
  • Tap H The Great Saiyamann, hold H to deny his power (and the sideswitch).

The Great Saiyaman comes out and bumps the opponent back to Videl, allowing for a combo. Hold the button for the Great Sayiaman to not come out.

  • All versions cross up on the opponent.
  • All versions jail after vanish if blocked.
  • M and H versions use smash on hit to create a ground bounce (or wallbounce if opponent is launched into a corner)

Good to catch opponents that aren't totally prepared on defense, as well as possible tricky setups with certain assists - especially due to it being plus, but if the opponent sees this it isn't very hard for them to just 2H it on reaction due to it's somewhat slow startup. Still, it being plus helps Videl restart pressure a little, but don't abuse this very much as a good opponent will simply react and 2H this.

Counter UDV 1 39 Total 61 1-42 Non-throw
Attack 2318 [3180] All UDV

  • Guard point against all strikes except Supers. On successful counter, all assists will leave the screen and Great Saiyaman will appear above the opponent and attack during the super freeze, causing a sliding knockdown.
  • After attacking, Great Saiyaman shall perform his trademark heroic pose. Doing this gives him a damage increase on all of his attacks (5S, 2S, etc), and drains exactly 1 Ki Gauge from the opponent along with their patience.
  • Great Saiyaman will pose even if the initial attack K.O'd the opponent, but he won't pose again if he has already received the damage buff. DHC-ing early will also skip the animation and all of its effects.
  • As the opponent also gains Ki from their attack being blocked and then being hit by Great Saiyaman, in most situations, the net amount of Ki lost is ~62% Ki Gauges.
  • Adv on grounded hit against up/back/forward tech: With pose: +30; Without pose: +24. Air hit such as against safejumps will give slightly better adv.

A frame 1 counter with guaranteed followup means it's a decent option against frame traps and can outright beat safejumps. Great Saiyaman can still whiff if the opponent is in invulnerable frames (such as during DPs or reversals), but Videl is unpunishable and can even be plus in these situations. Though do keep in mind that this move is not fully invulnerable, and can be thrown or stuffed by projectiles and Supers.
