Vane's primary source of damage midscreen against grounded opponents. The wallbounce allows him to continue a combo where otherwise he might have to end on {{clr|M|236M}}, most commonly with {{clr|H|f.H}} > {{clr|L|623L}} for a knockdown.

Overview
Vane is a straightforward, neutral based character who conditions the opponent until he gets what he wants, mainly being a jump in. While his buttons from afar while solid are nothing too special, besides 2MGuardMidStartup8Recovery15Advantage-5 which is a very good normal that's fast and goes decently far, he makes up for it with Energy Destruction, a large slash that covers about half the screen, and One for All, a shield that absorbs incoming attacks. Good usage of both tools makes it hard for the opponent to approach and once they try getting in with a jump in, Vane's damage shines. He has some of, if not the best damage off anti airs in the entire cast with 2HGuardMidStartup11Recovery25Advantage-13 since it's a wide hitting move that has enough hitstun to combo into 623MGuardMidStartup25Recovery37Advantage-24 without counter hit, and along with Arm Destruction, a pillar of light that goes very high, Vane has some of the best anti airs in the game. In the corner as well his damage is pretty good, since 236HGuardMidStartup15Recovery22Advantage-8 and 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 both launch the opponent to lead into combos that can deal good damage, which leads into shield okizeme that makes it so the opponent cant mash and have to deal with Vane's long range pressure which is solid, especially since Wild Beat is a strong tool to use in pressure, and in the corner counter hit 236MGuardMidStartup19Recovery22Advantage-8 leads to a full combo can once again and deal good damage.
However, he's not without faults, his only reversal is metered meaning he has weaker defense than others, especially since his supers are on the slower side of the cast, his midscreen damage without a counter hit or meter is poor, he has less plus frames than most with only 2 moves that aren't universally plus on block, 214UGuardAllStartup20Recovery19Advantage+4 and 22UGuardAllStartup14RecoveryTotal 45Advantage+6 , which both cost meter, and his neutral is good but has drawbacks, mainly One for All since while it's very strong, in the right matchups it can be pretty much worthless, mainly against zoners who play neutral better then Vane.
If you're looking for a fun, easy to understand neutral based character, then Daddy Vane is the one for you.Vane is a character who controls neutral with his strong specials and capitalizes off the opponent's reckless actions.
- Great Anti-Air Confirms: Vane can combo his 2H into 623M, even on normal hit, for meterless combo extensions midscreen. On CH, he can combo 2H into 214M for even more damaging combos midscreen.
- Flexible Corner Combos: Each of Vane's specials has at least one variant that can extend combos in the corner. Even if some of them are on cooldown, he will usually have one on hand to score some extra damage in the corner.
- Great pokes: Vane has some very good pokes with 2MGuardMidStartup8Recovery15Advantage-5 and f.HGuardMidStartup10Recovery21Advantage-10 being stand out highlights and his other buttons still have pretty decent range, and if the range isn't that great they make up for it with good frame data.
- One For All: A very strong neutral tool that's hard to get around if used well, it can lead to free punishes, very good oki in the corner, especially with 22UGuardAllStartup14RecoveryTotal 45Advantage+6 , and is Vane's best way of controlling neutral.
- Lacking Meterless Reversals: Vane's only reversals are 623U and his Skybound Arts, so he will not have any available without meter.
- Few Plus Frames: Being the only character in the game without any EX moves that are plus on block, Vane must use lights, 214U, or 22U if he wants to score frame advantage on block.
- Basic midscreen damage: While he has ways of getting good midscreen damage, his basic damage without a counter hit, meter, or anti air is poor.
- The shield isn't impenetrable: In the right matchups One For All is a very strong tool that's hard to get around, in the wrong matchups it's kind of worthless, mainly against characters with better neutral than Vane or characters with multi hit projectiles that break it instantly.

Vane's other main pressure tool and complement to c.L. Has pretty good range for a f.L, combos into his important tools, but sadly doesn't combo into 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 so you can't hit confirm his best corner combo. Nothing much to say, it's just a very good normal and is one of his best tools up close.

A decent mid poke that has slightly more range than 2MGuardMidStartup8Recovery15Advantage-5. At the cost of being a bit slower, having slightly more recovery, and 2 less active frames. It's a solid normal just kinda of outshined by 2MGuardMidStartup8Recovery15Advantage-5 even with the slightly bigger range.

Along side f.MGuardMidStartup9Recovery18Advantage-6 and 2MGuardMidStartup8Recovery15Advantage-5 this is another good poke in Vane's arsenal but has one big advantage the other two don't, that being more hitstun. It can combo into 236MGuardMidStartup19Recovery22Advantage-8 and 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 normally, 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 mainly being his main corner combo starter which is great, and off counter hit it can combo into 623MGuardMidStartup25Recovery37Advantage-24 for full midscreen combos without meter. It's main problem is just how slower it is having more start up and recovery than 2MGuardMidStartup8Recovery15Advantage-5 but is still a great poke overall.

900 | Mid | 8 | 5 | 15 | -5 | -1 |
Vane's best poke in neutral, good range, fast, active for a while, not too much recovery, and is very good at stopping peoples approaches. While it has slightly less range than f.MGuardMidStartup9Recovery18Advantage-6 the slightly better frame data is more than enough to use this more. Using this while standing right behind One for All is very annoying to deal with and since it combos into Wild Beat it leads right back into the same situation of standing behind the shield and stopping their dash attack. Very good normal, remember to use this move.
- Useful for checking 66Ls thanks to its reach, active frames, and speed.

- Vane's primary anti-air A grounded attack that hits the opponent out of the air normal.
- Hits pretty much in a 180° arc around Vane.
Vane's reward off of an anti-air A grounded attack that hits the opponent out of the air is extremely high by Granblue standards. After a successful anti-air A grounded attack that hits the opponent out of the air 2H (Normal or CH) Vane can combo into 623MGuardMidStartup25Recovery37Advantage-24 for extended combos that easily break 4K or higher based on his resources/cooldowns. The only time 623MGuardMidStartup25Recovery37Advantage-24 will whiff is if the opponent is directly behind Vane. In these cases it's better to opt for using 214LGuardMidStartup24Recovery27Advantage-6 or 214HGuardMidStartup21Recovery25Advantage-4 instead. On CH, 2H can also combo into 214MGuardMidStartup34Recovery27Advantage-6 for more high-damage combos.
2H also functions as a solid combo tool thanks to the extra untech time it gives when hitting an in air opponent. This allows Vane to end combos with things like 2H > 214LGuardMidStartup24Recovery27Advantage-6 or even extend them further with 2H > 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15

- Gives an auto timed safe jump A very well-timed jump attack on a character who is rising from a knockdown. Your goal is to attack extremely close to when you land so that, if the character performs an invincible reversal attack, you will land and be able to block. The opponent is then forced to block your jumping attack, since reversaling doesn't work, which will give you some nice pressure and hopefully an opening. on raw hit by simply holding up forward.
A standard Granblue sweep that sees a good bit of use in combos. At midscreen 2U will see use after the wall bounce given by 236UGuardMidStartup15Recovery20Advantage-6 . This allows Vane to cancel into 623LGuardMidStartup15Recovery27Advantage-14 / 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 for extra damage and corner carry.
Meanwhile in the corner 2U can be linked after the mini wallbounce 236HGuardMidStartup15Recovery22Advantage-8 gives. This will usually be canceled into 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 or Raging Strike for a combo extension.

A solid, albeit situational move. It has solid range, if spaced correctly it's hard to punish, but it honestly isn't all too used mainly since Vane isn't really the type to run in and try to run crazy offense. On that note however just throwing it out is a good way to catch the opponent off guard. It's good, just doesn't do much that's special.

- Situational "poke" and combo ender.
- Can link a c.L in the corner if opponent is high enough in the air.
While not used as a big damage punisher like other character's 66Hs. Vane's 66H actually sees use as a solid combo ender in situations where other cooldowns aren't available/Vane wants to save them for later. Specifically during combos where 623HGuardMidStartup20Recovery28Advantage-15 has launched an already in air opponent high in the air and rather close to Vane. During this situation Vane can link a 66H to get good corner carry and a grip of damage still.
Punishing this move can also be quite tricky. Thanks to both the pushback on block and it only being -6 . Unless badly spaced to where Vane ends inside far L distance, it is usually safe.

- Unlimited hits of guard point while held.
- Gimmicky reversal and anti-mash tool.
- Damage increases as Vane eats hits.
Vane charges a gigantic strike to the head. While holding 5U, Vane will absorb all incoming attacks, including Super Skybound Arts, with no upper limit on how many hits he endures. Vane gains no damage reduction - you're eating all the damage, no way around it. Unblockables will plow right through Vane's defense and hit him normally, but otherwise he absorbs all strikes and projectiles.
Breakthrough does exactly as much damage as he absorbs with the guard point, or a minimum of 1000. The strike itself has no armor. If the attack whiffs or is interrupted, the damage bonus is lost, so be damn sure you're going to connect with this.
Unsafe point-blank.
It's not the best since the opponent can spot dodge if they notice it, the strike itself has no armor, and it's vulnerable to throws, but it can be devastating if you tank enough damage and the mental damage is unparalleled.

- Alternate combo ender and prime combo tool.
- Moves forward quickly.
- No invulnerability and slow startup makes it a poor function choice for an anti-air, especially compared to 2H.
The reason Vane's anti-air is so destructive. Vane advances forward and unleashes a pillar of light, knocking the enemy at a shallow verticle angle. It's a poor anti-air on its own, with Vane's normals serving that purpose, instead complementing Wild Beat as a knockdown tool against grounded opponents and combo extender against airborne foes. The M version is key to unlocking his absurd anti-air damage.
Egregiously unsafe on block, and poor reward as a frame trap. Don't auto-pilot into this under any circumstances.
- 623L
Same speed as 236L, but much more unsafe on block. If 236X is on cooldown, Vane can use this instead to convert into knockdowns.
- Forces airtech on hit.

Primarily used in punish and counterhit combos. Requires air hit 2H or ground CH H normals to combo, but can be comboed after for huge damage.
- Links into normals on hit.

- Humongous range.
- Slow, but rewarding on hit.
- Versatile as both a pressure and neutral tool.
- Cannot combo after the aerial versions.
Neutral/Oppresion in a can. Vane swings his weapon nearly full-screen, striking a tremendous area in front of him. All versions knock down on hit, providing time to set up One for All or other oki.
The grounded L version reaches about 3/4ths of the screen, and when farther than point-blank is safe on block. Its humongous range means it's liable to snipe opponents carelessly jumping in, trying to 66L, or really do anything from far away except block. When covered by One for All, this can let Vane contest most of the screen while nullifying the opponent's attempts to fight back.
If Vane uses this twice in a row, there's a 30 frame gap for the opponent to maneuver around it by rolling, superjumping, dash blocking, and so on. Don't use it carelessly.
The aerial version moves him upward briefly and kills his horizontal momentum before coming down with a shockwave. Change your jump trajectory on the fly to reposition, or as an anti-anti-air.
The grounded M version has Vane hop towards the opponent before creating a fear-reaching shockwave. Can hop over low-to-the-ground strikes and fireballs; being airborne, it also functions as an unsafe throw bait with excellent reward on counter hit. Also finds use as an anti-air conversion tool off of counter-hit 2H. Versatile overall, just don't abuse it.
The aerial version functions the same as the aerial L version, but gives him some forward momentum.
The H version looks similar to the L version but is faster and ground bounces on hit, allowing for combo extensions. Not plus on block, limiting its use in pressure, but the three frames fewer of startup can allow it to snipe opponents that Vane might otherwise miss with the L version. Usually not worth it except for round-end scenarios.
The aerial version gives him the standard upward hop, but otherwise retains Vane's horizontal momentum. This makes it the only version, Ult included, that lets him drop the shockwave while retreating.

The L version summons the shield about one character length away from Vane. Shield appears quickly, but Vane recovers slower.
The M version summons the shield about two character lengths away from Vane. Shield appears slowest, but Vane recovers quickly.
The H summons the shield about three character lengths away from Vane. Summons as fast as the L version and recovers as quickly as the M version, making if the quickest overall. The shield is unchanged.

- Wallbounces opponents regardless of screen position.
Vane's primary source of damage midscreen against grounded opponents. The wallbounce allows him to continue a combo where otherwise he might have to end on 236M, most commonly with f.H > 623L for a knockdown. Higher reward the closer Vane is to the corner, with closer hits letting him extend the combo via 2U > 623H instead.
Vane has better uses of meter in neutral, relegating this to a combo tool only. An overall fine use of meter.

Unleashes a massive shockwave that pushes the opponent to fullscreen if blocked. The opponent needs to spot dodge this but if they don't you get back into your preferred zone. Isn't the best against projectiles sadly because of the long startup. Good combo ender, good damage, is slow but is overall still decent.
- Data in brackets refers to non-cinematic far hit.

A decent SSBA with two flaws, it's range which is kind of small and startup that's on the slower side, it's a solid anti air and combo ender but outside of that it's just kind of average. The weak hit sends them pretty much full screen which means Vane can set up One for All afterwards and control the neutral.
