DNFD/Launcher

Overview

Launcher is a ranged pressure character with many linear, slow-traveling projectiles.

While her combo damage is mediocre, Launcher can stack on white health damage that she can potentially strip away with one well timed MP Skill. Due to the game's Dodge system mechanic allowing opponents to circumvent Launcher's majority projectile-property attacks with ease, Launcher's true offense lies in attempting to frame trap An offensive technique where the attacker leaves a small opening in their offense, goading the defender into performing an attack. This opening is designed such that the attacker can easily counter the defender's attack with their own. at specific ranges once she has pushed the opponent close enough to the corner. By spacing herself out just beyond halfscreen with the opponent's back to the wall, Launcher can intercept an opponent trying to contest the inherent gaps in her chains but still be close enough to confirm into her combos.

On defense, Launcher struggles against the majority of the cast due to a grounded, linear arsenal and her stumpy 2M reversal. Launcher has some difficulty contesting jump-ins as her anti airs have poor angles of attack. Thankfully, Launcher's air-to-air game is formidable, both j.A and j.S are above average at intercepting airborne opponents. As of the December 2022 patch, Launcher's A normals have become much faster, giving her the means to fend off enemies in her face and contest many things she previously had to hold.

Launcher Launcher is classified as a Ranged type. She has a variety of ranged and multi-hit attacks. She can pressure opponents by using moves with delayed hits.

Pros

Cons

Corner Carry: Her most universal tool, ExtruderGuardAllStartup30Recovery39Advantage+28 pushes the opponent back an extreme distance on hit or block with Launcher able to give chase.
Chip Damage: During Awakening, Launcher's MP Skills can build up White Life quickly. With access to Guard Break sequences in the corner, she can convert her chip damage into a touch of death A single combo that will defeat the opponent even from full health. combo.
Safe Air-to-Ground: j.S is one of Launcher's most effective space control tools when there is some room to breathe, and stuns for long enough that Launcher can land from a moderate height and combo with 2A.
Finally a Zoner: Launcher's freedom to whiff cancel 2B into Skills and chain 5B into MP Skills gives Launcher the means to push out and keep opponents on their toes, daring them to move. With varied timing, layered whiff-canceled attacks and a defensive setup of grenades, Launcher can often snag an opponent with a delayed explosion and confirm into a formidable combo.

High Cost, Low Opportunity: Despite chip damage being her touted gimmick, Launcher needs to spend exorbitant amounts of MP to build up notable white life, and can rarely open up opponents to capitalize on it.
Blind Spots: Launcher has few answers to airborne enemies. She lacks moves capable of targeting the space directly below her when airborne, and all air moves stall or slow her fall, making it easier for characters to dash under her or forward jump with little fear.
Hollow Pressure: Every S and M input after Launcher's 5AA has gaps in blockstun and huge whiff recoveries, leaving many holes to slip through and punish Launcher's slow recovery. Launcher players must pace her attacks properly and avoid autopilot strings.

Awakening Effect: activates when entering Awakening mode at 30% HP or less.

Now with a 4 Frame startup as of December 2022, Launcher aims at the ground with an awkward low-height hitbox which can be easily jumped. This is the cornerstone of Launcher pressure as it has the most cancel options out of any of her normals. It has good frame advantage, allowing her to stagger multiple shots to get optimal spacing and steal turns with proper conditioning, and then lead into 5AA to space the opponent out to begin her explosive setups.

5A‘S twosome followup with great space coverage. Being able to chain from 5A on whiff makes it dangerous to challenge. With two very active shots spaced apart, it provides enough time to hit confirm or extend pressure on block. When at very close distance, 2B and 5S can chain off of 5AA for a true blockstring, but have a gap from beyond grab range. The only true blockstrings after 5AA at any range are 5B and 4S; anything else has unsafe gaps. Launcher needs to anticipate any opponents dodging or challenging whatever comes after 5AA, gain ideal spacing, drop a grenade and delay her shots accordingly.

Chains from 5A on hit, block, and whiff.
Hitbox of the final shot hits at nearly the same height as 6S, it can potentially anti-air a distant opponent, but is not much better than 5A up close.

Unorthodox 2B, Launcher throws out a grenade that explodes on contact with the opponent or after a certain amount of time. This move is Launcher’s lifeline. Her opponent must respect it at all times as soon as it is out. With the ability to whiff cancel it immediately after the projectile becomes active, Launcher can almost always safely set up a defensive line in front of her before she leads into firing off one of her Skills.

After a 4S knockdown in the corner, Launcher's default position will cause the grenade to land just outside the stage, serving as a delayed threat. However, if Launcher microwalks backwards before deploying the grenade, it will instead detonate on the opponent's wakeup, assuming they do not Dodge on wakeup to avoid it.

Persists if Launcher is hit.
Explodes after 90 frames or on contact with the opponent.
A combined explosive force of 2B and 2S can launch and/or juggle the opponent at point blank, opening up many high damage combo opportunities.

Very slow and very active air button that can cut off half a block of guard meter. With ideal spacing so that she hits on the way down, Launcher can somewhat reliably maintain advantage on block and combo if she follows up on the ground with 2A.

Frame Advantage varies due to projectiles hitting at an inconsistent rate between two to five frames apart.
Massive disjoint at the end of M-137's barrel, leaving a huge deadzone between Launcher and her projectiles, and even with the projectiles and the ground.
No benefit from a counter hit if it happens too early.
Applies a faint backwards inertia on Launcher, slowing her forward jump, slightly pushing her back on a neutral jump, and making her cover more ground on a backwards jump.

Not a great reactive anti-air, but a strong pre-emptive one. Very useful for stopping jumps after opponents block 5AA and attempt to jump over Launcher's 2B grenade. A potent duo with Launcher's 2B grenade, both grenades can fortify Launcher's defensive wall, especially against jumpy opponents.

The projectile travels upwards at a 45 degree angle and only explodes on contact with the opponent.
Whiffs against crouching Berzerker, Striker, Grappler, Inquisitor, Swift Master , Enchantress, Kunoichi and Dragon Knight
