|content=Baiken is set apart from the cast due to her guard cancels, which allow her to attack during blockstun without tension. This enables her to break out of pressure and limit the opponent's options, forcing them to play a completely different game against her.


These guard cancels can be performed during '''hitstop/blockstop''', the period of time where characters are frozen as moves make contact to emphasize the hit effects. This means that she can punish moves which are normally safe since the GC's startup occurs during the window where the opponent's move is frozen, plus the remaining active window, '''plus''' the move's recovery frames. Each guard cancel allows her to get out of a variety of pressure situations.

Each guard cancel allows her to get out of a variety of pressure situations.


Additionally Baiken comes with an excellent set of normals, some very strong conversions and damage, and has a toolkit for nearly every situation. On the flip side, her conversions are quite awkward and some of her best buttons also have very limited cancel routes. Baiken also takes much higher damage than average and can get dizzied pretty quickly, so Baiken players need to play sharp or risk losing fairly quickly. However, that shouldn't matter if she is played sharply, as her tools provide her plenty of opportunities to shut down anything the other player wants to do.

{{Bio
 
| trivia = Baiken's design originates from Ishiwatari mistaking Rurouni Kenshin as a woman.  
If you love to play careful turtle-characters with strong offensive responses against the right reads, consider picking Baiken up for a try.  
| voice = Chizu Yonemoto
|lore= After losing both of her parents from a Gear raid at a young age, Baiken saw That Man amidst the chaos, and swore her life towards revenge. In events preceding AC, she finally met with him, but Baiken had found herself unable to lay a finger on him, and was met with a man whose demeanor and words suggested that revenge was a hollow path. Confused and directionless, she sets her sights on the P.W.A.B to find an answer the only way she knows how: through battle.

{{StrengthsAndWeaknesses
|pros=
| intro = {{Character Label|GGACR|Baiken|24px}} fights at midrange, using meterless attacks while blocking, and can seal opponent's movement options and buttons.
*  '''Tensionless Guard Cancels''': Baiken's guard cancels allow her to act during Blockstun, forcing opponents to play cautiously even while on the offensive. Many matchups may require opponents to end pressure early or go for safer but less rewarding options, which allows Baiken to remain a threat even while on the back foot.
| pros =
*  '''Exceptional Damage''': With meter, Baiken can convert into extremely powerful and lengthy combos. These combos also have tend to have great corner carry.  
*  '''Tensionless guard cancels''': Baiken's guard cancels allow her to act during '''Blockstop''', forcing opponents to play cautiously even while on the offensive.
*  '''Powerful Hitboxes''': Notably {{clr|2|2K}}, {{clr|3|S}} normals, {{clr|4|5H}}, {{clr|4|j.H}}, {{clr|5|j.D}}, and {{MMC|input=236K|label=Tatami}} are very disjointed can be very difficult to contest.
*  '''Powerful hitboxes''': Notably 2K, S normals, 5H, j.H, j.D, and Tatami are very disjointed can be very difficult to contest.
*  '''Tiny Hurtbox''': Being short makes it difficult for many characters to land IOHs, fuzzies, or air to ground conversions against her.  
*  '''Tiny hurtbox''': Being short makes it difficult for many characters to land IOHs, fuzzies, or air to ground conversions against her.  
*  '''Strong Mixup Tools''': {{MMC|input=j.623S|label=Youzansen}} instant overhead, throw conversions, a safe {{clr|5|5D}}, and the ability to reversal out of blocking with her guard cancels give Baiken lots of mixup options.
*  '''Strong mixup tools''': Youzansen instant overhead, throw conversions, a safe 5D, and the ability to play while blocking give Baiken lots of mixup options.
*  '''Can Seal Options and Setup''': Thanks to {{MMC|input=Guard > 412D|label=Baku}}, 50 meter scores Baiken the ability to lock the opponent's buttons, and then seal their movement, set up an unblockable, or do full counter hit combos.
*  '''Can Seal Options and Setup''': Thanks to [[GGACR/Baiken#Baku|Baku]], 50 meter scores Baiken the ability to lock the opponent's buttons, and then seal their movement, set up an unblockable, or do full counter hit combos.
| cons =
| cons =
*  '''Awkwardly limited gatlings/conversions''': Many of Baiken's better normals have limited conversion ability at distance, and may require counter/crouching hit confirms, or more difficult inputs (e.g. Kire Tatami).
*  '''Limited Meterless Conversions''': Many of Baiken's normals have limited gatlings and depend on close proximity, counterhits, or crouch confirms to convert into combos. Baiken will often want to spend meter on FRC to access her high damage, or depend on difficult techniques such as Kire Tatami.
* '''Doesn't take hits well''': Very low health and stun resistance, despite the best guts in the game, means Baiken can die very quickly.
* '''Unforgiving Execution Barrier''': Baiken's best combos require judicious use of techniques like Kire tatami, IADs, Suzuran cancels, and plenty of FRCs. Paired with her very low health and stun resistance, making mistakes as Baiken can be especially unforgiving.  
*  '''Poor throw range''': Baiken has the second worst throw range in the game.
|unique_mechanic1_name=Guard Cancel
*  '''Meter reliant''': Baiken generally needs an FRC in order to turn strays hit into real damage and/or a knockdown while midscreen, or sometimes even in the corner.
|unique_mechanic1=Baiken can cancel into special moves during blockstop/blockstun. Being able to cancel blockstun into attacks is pretty strong by itself, but <i>Blockstop</i> is a window in which ''only Baiken'' can move. This is far more powerful of an ability than it first appears.
}}
|subheader1=Guard Cancel
|content2=Baiken can cancel into special moves during blockstop/blockstun. Being able to cancel bockstun into attacks is pretty strong by itself, but <i>Blockstop</i> is a window in which ''only Baiken'' can move. This is far more powerful of an ability than it first appears.

*Baiken's highest damage normal, this move also has a very low GB-, making it great for combos. It's also special AND jump cancelable on hit (unlike {{clr|4|5H}}).
*Almost always used to option select grab on the ground: {{clr|2|6K}}+HS, due to Baiken's extremely poor grab range.
*It is very slow startup, however, and can be a challenge to place. Usually used to pick up opponent during slide or wall bounce.
*Very good meaty as it is +2 normally and can be as much as +10 if meatied perfectly. Take care in meatying this move because it loses grab invincibility during active frames.
*Gatlings from 5P if you wish to fish for a Counter Hit after conditioning with high/low/throw from 5P.
*Hitbox can be strong against low attacks when spaced well.

Staple move which is just as important as Baiken's guard cancels. These control space, end blockstrings from a distance, and start combos in the corner or with an FRC. Despite being -6, it's generally very difficult to punish this move unless IB'd/SB'd due to how far the opponent gets pushed away. Depending on the spacing when you use it, this move won't make contact immediately, but players who attempt to jump or IAD over it will have difficulty due to how high the initial hitbox reaches.

Frighteningly fast overhead when Tiger Knee'd, leading to Baiken's extensive corner damage and knockdown when RC'd. The ability to go into this out of any jump cancellable normal, particularly her {{clr|5|2D}}, gives you an extremely powerful mixup tool whenever the opponent is in blockstun.
*Done higher in the air, it can be used to delay her fall and bait the opponent into attempting a punish. It has landing recovery frames when you do eventually come down from stalling in the air, but these can be cleared by double jumping after a Youzansen if you still have it available.
*Has an extremely early and difficult FRC point which comes before the moves goes active, but will slow and change the direction of Baiken's aerial momentum, and has its uses in corner combos.
*Extremely unsafe on block, and when TK'd, will leave you wide open if it is blocked. However, you generally won't be getting any reward off of this without meter anyway, so you'll likely be saving this for when you can convert.

Formerly her P Guard Cancel, Youshijin's main purpose is to launch on grounded hit after a hit confirmation, leading to combos pretty easily. It can serve as an early anti air since its hitbox extends very high, but using it on reaction will get you counter hit. Save it for when you've already established a hit up close.

Despite being a guard cancel, this is your main combo ender after corner combos, as Baiken will usually cross herself up in the corner, use the extensive hitstun of {{clr|1|6P}} > Suzuran > Zakuro to score the knockdown, and cross them back up with another jumping Tatami.

Excellent Guard Cancel which crosses up the opponent if performed close enough. Best used against moves with a lot of recovery, allowing Baiken to step in and throw or punish if given enough time. This is her only meterless GC with startup invincibility, meaning that it can be very useful, but you'll need to exercsise judgment since it doesn't actually have a hitbox.

The only meterless guard cancel with invincibility before and during its active window. On counter hit, it will net a huge reward since it'll launch them straight up with a large amount of untechable time. It will also cross up the opponent depending on the distance, netting an overall good reward. Like the others, it's unsafe if blocked.

Revision as of 19:38, 25 June 2022

Overview
Overview

Baiken is set apart from the cast due to her guard cancels, which allow her to attack during blockstun without tension. This enables her to break out of pressure and limit the opponent's options, forcing them to play a completely different game against her.

These guard cancels can be performed during hitstop/blockstop, the period of time where characters are frozen as moves make contact to emphasize the hit effects. This means that she can punish moves which are normally safe since the GC's startup occurs during the window where the opponent's move is frozen, plus the remaining active window, plus the move's recovery frames. Each guard cancel allows her to get out of a variety of pressure situations.

Additionally Baiken comes with an excellent set of normals, some very strong conversions and damage, and has a toolkit for nearly every situation. On the flip side, her conversions are quite awkward and some of her best buttons also have very limited cancel routes. Baiken also takes much higher damage than average and can get dizzied pretty quickly, so Baiken players need to play sharp or risk losing fairly quickly. However, that shouldn't matter if she is played sharply, as her tools provide her plenty of opportunities to shut down anything the other player wants to do.

If you love to play careful turtle-characters with strong offensive responses against the right reads, consider picking Baiken up for a try.

 Baiken  Baiken fights in the mid-range, and bulldogs through the opponent's offense with her free guard-cancel attacks.

Pros
Cons
  • Tensionless Guard Cancels: Baiken's guard cancels allow her to act during Blockstun, forcing opponents to play cautiously even while on the offensive. Many matchups may require opponents to end pressure early or go for safer but less rewarding options, which allows Baiken to remain a threat even while on the back foot.
  • Exceptional Damage: With meter, Baiken can convert into extremely powerful and lengthy combos. These combos also have tend to have great corner carry.
  • Powerful Hitboxes: Notably 2K, S normals, 5H, j.H, j.D, and TatamiGGAC Baiken 236K.pngGuardAllStartup15Recovery9Advantage-6 are very disjointed can be very difficult to contest.
  • Tiny Hurtbox: Being short makes it difficult for many characters to land IOHs, fuzzies, or air to ground conversions against her.
  • Strong Mixup Tools: YouzansenGGAC Baiken j623S.pngGuardHigh/AirStartup6Recovery15+11 after landingAdvantage-25 instant overhead, throw conversions, a safe 5D, and the ability to reversal out of blocking with her guard cancels give Baiken lots of mixup options.
  • Can Seal Options and Setup: Thanks to BakuGGAC Baiken 412D.pngGuardMidStartup11Recovery20Advantage-3, 50 meter scores Baiken the ability to lock the opponent's buttons, and then seal their movement, set up an unblockable, or do full counter hit combos.
  • Limited Meterless Conversions: Many of Baiken's normals have limited gatlings and depend on close proximity, counterhits, or crouch confirms to convert into combos. Baiken will often want to spend meter on FRC to access her high damage, or depend on difficult techniques such as Kire Tatami.
  • Unforgiving Execution Barrier: Baiken's best combos require judicious use of techniques like Kire tatami, IADs, Suzuran cancels, and plenty of FRCs. Paired with her very low health and stun resistance, making mistakes as Baiken can be especially unforgiving.
Baiken can cancel into special moves during blockstop/blockstun. Being able to cancel blockstun into attacks is pretty strong by itself, but Blockstop is a window in which only Baiken can move. This is far more powerful of an ability than it first appears.

Normal Moves

StartupThe time before an attack is active. Written startup values include the first active frame, so the startup on a frame chart will display one less square than the written value. Frames
Active The active frames of an attack refers to the amount of time an attack can hit the opponent. Frames
InactiveFrames in the middle of multi-hit attacks which cannot hit the opponent, but are after the move has become active at least once. Frames
Recovery The recovery of an attack refers to the amount of time an attacker must wait before they may perform another action, even blocking. Frames
Special RecoveryThe recovery of an attack refers to the amount of time an attacker must wait before they may perform another action.Recovery frames which happen under abnormal conditions, such as after landing. Frames
ProjectileIndicates an entity that exists separately from the character has become active. Usually something like a Fireball A projectile which usually travels slowly across the screen in a horizontal path above the ground.. Active
CancelA window in which to cancel a move. Can be varied in usage. Window

StartupHow many frames it takes for the move to become able to strike the opponent. Startup includes the frame on which the move becomes active. ActiveHow many frames for which the move has a hitbox where if the opponent touches it, they will take damage. Occurs after Startup. RecoveryHow many frames that the move must go through after its active frames end to automatically go back to a neutral state.

5P is a good point-blank poke, and probably Baiken's best tick-throw poke.

  • It cancels into 2K and can jump cancelled – this allows you to mixup with a low (2K) or high (Youzansen).

Very good for establishing pressure due to its frame advantage.

  • Can only be chained into from 6K.
  • Causes enough stagger on hit to convert if the opponent doesn't shake out quickly.
  • Recovery is low enough that even being SB'd doesn't lead to a punish for a lot of characters unless performed point blank.
  • Can be used to force the opponent to cross over during untech time

Additional Frame Data: Staggers opponent on hit (max 24F). 1st and 2nd hits pull in opponent on hit or block. Hitstop 6F. Pulls in opponent in air. Untechable for 26F

Commonly used for corner damage and loops with FRC.

  • Scores ranged knockdowns on standing hit immediately out of f.S.
  • Works in conjunction with j.S for a fuzzy, especially since it can be heavily delayed.
  • Can be FDC'ed to flutter in the air, which is useful for baiting anti airs. (Messing up the input can cost you your burst, so be careful!)

Additional Frame Data: Initial prorate 90%. Blows back opponent on hit (untechable for 35F). FRC timing 9~11F.

Total: 47

Staple move which is just as important as Baiken's guard cancels. These control space, end blockstrings from a distance, and start combos in the corner or with an FRC. Despite being -6, it's generally very difficult to punish this move unless IB'd/SB'd due to how far the opponent gets pushed away. Depending on the spacing when you use it, this move won't make contact immediately, but players who attempt to jump or IAD over it will have difficulty due to how high the initial hitbox reaches.

Additional Frame Data: Wallbounces opponent on hit (untechable for 32F, on CH for 100F). On ground hit launches only if it hits during 1~6F of Active Frames. FRC timing 23~26F. Tatami disappears immediately if Baiken is hit.


The air version has some slight variation in use compared to the ground version in neutral, but still the same in combos. Tatami will drop straight down when done in the air, lacking the ground version's blowback, but still serving to cover a large portion of the screen and prevent opponents from rushing in.

In combos, it will still wallbounce if combo'd into properly, and with the FRC, it tends to lead to some of Baiken's most damaging combo strings.

Additional Frame Data: Wallbounces opponent on hit (untechable for 36F). On ground hit launches only if it hits during 1~6F of Active Frames. Hitstop 6F if it hits during 1~6F of Active Frames. FRC timing 18~19F. Tatami disappears immediately when Baiken is hit.

Total: 43

Frighteningly fast overhead when Tiger Knee'd, leading to Baiken's extensive corner damage and knockdown when RC'd. The ability to go into this out of any jump cancellable normal, particularly her 2D, gives you an extremely powerful mixup tool whenever the opponent is in blockstun.

  • Done higher in the air, it can be used to delay her fall and bait the opponent into attempting a punish. It has landing recovery frames when you do eventually come down from stalling in the air, but these can be cleared by double jumping after a Youzansen if you still have it available.
  • Has an extremely early and difficult FRC point which comes before the moves goes active, but will slow and change the direction of Baiken's aerial momentum, and has its uses in corner combos.
  • Extremely unsafe on block, and when TK'd, will leave you wide open if it is blocked. However, you generally won't be getting any reward off of this without meter anyway, so you'll likely be saving this for when you can convert.

Additional Frame Data: Floats opponent on hit (untechable for 28F). Baiken is in CH state during move. Baiken is in crouching state during landing recovery. FRC timing 3~4F. Fastest possible TK Youzansen has startup 9F.

Total: 42

Formerly her P Guard Cancel, Youshijin's main purpose is to launch on grounded hit after a hit confirmation, leading to combos pretty easily. It can serve as an early anti air since its hitbox extends very high, but using it on reaction will get you counter hit. Save it for when you've already established a hit up close.

Additional Frame Data: Hitstop 6F. Initial prorate 70%. Floats opponent on hit (untechable on ground hit for 48F, on air hit for 36F). Attack is fully extended on 15F.

Total: 41

Despite being a guard cancel, this is your main combo ender after corner combos, as Baiken will usually cross herself up in the corner, use the extensive hitstun of 6P > Suzuran > Zakuro to score the knockdown, and cross them back up with another jumping Tatami.

It's also Baiken's main answer to large hitbox jump ins like Johnny, Justice, or Baiken's j.H. Against airdash buttons or opponents performing a very deep jump-in, this will mostly likely whiff, leaving Baiken wide open. Zakuro is best suited to obviously high jump-ins and combos.

Additional Frame Data: 1st hit has initial prorate 75%. 2nd hit has forced prorate 75%. Baiken is in CH state 1~11F. FRC timing 12~13F.

One of Baiken's most rewarding GCs, despite lacking invincibility.

  • Hits straight in front of her. Best between slow, beefy hits.
  • Relatively fast, staggers on hit.
  • Leads to damage with the FRC, extended stagger on CH.
  • A good option when the opportunity is recognized, just don't get it baited, though.

Additional Frame Data: Staggers opponent on ground hit (max 50F). Wallstick opponent on air hit (untechable for 40F, sticks for 20F). FRC timing 10~11F.

A far reaching somersault which catches opponents going for far reaching attacks with high recovery, or trying to cancel into something else on reaction. The only meterless guard cancel with invincibility before and during its active window.

  • Will cross up the opponent depending on the distance, netting an overall good reward.
  • Launches high and very untechable on CH, will net a huge reward.
  • Launches forward fast on FRC, can be used as a risky approach or escape tool.

Additional Frame Data: Floats opponent high on CH (untechable for 70F). Initial prorate 70%. FRC timing 4~6F.

  • Lets Baiken access GC tools in neutral.
  • Vulnerable to lows and throws, autoguard ends 5 frames before the move finishes.
  • Blockstop allows opponents to react and cancel hits into a low, jump, or RC to block anything that you wish to follow with.
  • Suzuran > Throw attempts can be easily jumped out of.

Additional Frame Data: Can cancel into Mawarikomi, Sakura, Ouren, Zakuro or FB Baku after guarding an attack. Can cancel into Mawarikomi, Sakura, Ouren, Zakuro or FB Baku 9~24F.

Grappling chain which pulls the opponent in on contact. Good if the opponent is already staggered, sliding, or for ending blockstrings ocassionally as it will catch opponents who are unprepared. Do note however that its speed will leave an opening, and those aware can low profile and punish it. Can work as a janky, predictive anti-air since Baiken's hurtbox lowers a bit.

Additional Frame Data: Initial prorate 80%. Staggers opponent on ground hit (max 33F). The chain stops when it hits; Recovery begins 3F after the move hits. Pulls opponent in on hit or block. Can cancel into Tetsuzansen from 32~38F when whiffed, or from 3~8F after hit or block. Fully extended on 28F. Slides opponent and pulls in on air hit (untechable for 36F, slides for 27F).

Powerful followup to Kabari, best for people trying to jump-in at you if Kabari whiffs. Has a decent chunk of startup invul, leads to combos on ocassion, and generally a good option for those who are trying to get around the chain. Be cautious as it's very unsafe if baited.

Additional Frame Data: Floats opponent on hit (untechable for 32F). 1st hit has forced prorate 90%, 2nd hit 80%. FRC timing 12~13F. Listed Frame Adv is when 2nd hit misses.

The second follow-up to Baku. Whichever follow-up is used, the opponent is locked out of using the corresponding button for the duration of the applied curse, i.e. using the P follow-up prevents the opponent from using the P button.

  • The S follow up will cross up.
  • The D follow up is useful as it locks the opponent out of their Burst.
  • The H follow up can also be used to prevent the opponent from using standard throws and from teching throws, which is quite effective when applied with the "no jump/dash/backdash" debuff. The opponent will then be prevented from using reversal backdash and reversal throw, and will also be unable to jump out of throw setups or tech throws, massively crippling their defense.
