Overview
Overview

Bridget...

 Bridget  Bridget is classified as a Balance type who utilizes strong pokes and mobility to set the range and speed of the match to her preference.

Pros
Cons
  • Screen Control: Bridget sports some of the longest reaching normals in the game, among which are long reaching anti-airs, and can utilize Stop and Dash to supplement as a poke or as a delayed trap that allows her to begin rushdown or hold her preferred space.
  • Tricky Mobility and Offense: Numerous specials which advance and adjust/halt her momentum allow Bridget to condition the opponent into guessing how she will approach. Rolling Movement in particular allows Bridget to advance in the air while still being able to dash or attack and enables a high/low or even left/right mix.
  • Versatile: Bridget's aforementioned perks are further rounded with a command grab that can be used in the air, a DP, and fairly strong, loopable offensive options whenever she decides to go in. With an overall wide spread of options, she is capable of controlling and adjusting to the pace of matches easily.
  • Low Guts: Bridget will take higher damage than most other characters even when guts scaling kicks in.
  • Strict Setup Requirements: Without CH or Stop and Dash set-up, Bridget's access to decent damage, mobility and pressure is very limited.
Error: No field named "weight" found for any of the specified database tables.

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

Bridget's 5P is not a traditional jab, having slightly greater startup, and range than most characters.

  • 5P > 6P is gapless.
  • 5P > 6K has a 3f gap.
  • 5P > 6H has a 4f gap.

Uncharged Dust Attack
  • Causes floating crumple on ground hit.
  • Launches opponent on air hit.
  • 80% proration.

Charged Dust Attack
  • Launches opponent on hit if combo'd into.
  • Holding any upward direction during the hitstop of a raw, charged Dust Attack on hit will activate Homing Jump:
    • Initiating a Homing Jump will put the opponent into a unique air combo state, ending in an Area Shift.
    • During a Homing Jump, canceling any normal into the same normal during hitstop will activate a Finish Blow.
    • Homing Jump combos greatly increase Tension Balance.

Significantly slower than an uncharged 5D, making it easier to react to. If it hits the opponent raw, it can lead into a very high damaging Homing Jump combo.

Short, fast poke.

With decent range and speed 2P is very safe for close to mid-range control. It has less range than 5P but is faster, hits lower, and can even combo into 2K on Counter Hit. It also shares the same gatlings, making it easy to push an opponent away on block, and more easily confirm on hit.

Bridget's fastest abare.

Unlike most, Bridget's 'jab' is her kick. This gives some large benefits like access to a 2D knockdown on hit, and on Counter Hit, Bridget's c.S allows combos at decent range, giving even further reward. It also cannot be low-profiled at all, unlike most 2P attacks. However, this also means Bridget's jabs do not self-gatling, making it harder to hitconfirm.

Like most 5F jabs, it can be used to challenge Throws and delayed pressure.

Bridget tosses two Yo-Yo's in front of her, hitting extremely low to the ground.

The Hitbox extendeds along the length of the floor the Yo-Yo covers making it an effective tool for stopping any attempts to low profile.

Because Bridget's Hurtbox is extended too this move can lose to disjointed low attacks or low crushes.

  • Both 236S go horizontally
  • 236H version goes upwards while j.236H goes downward.

Bridget throws out a yoyo out which will come back after a short delay. 236 version has a hitbox going out and takes 4 seconds to come back, While 214 version has a hitbox coming back to Bridget and takes 2 seconds to return. While the yoyo is out Bridget gains access to Rolling MovementGGST Bridget 214K.pngGuardAllStartup20~38Recovery0Advantage+16 (Airborne).

While a Stop and Dash yo-yo is on the screen, Bridget cannot throw another until the yo-yo returns to Bridget.

If Bridget is hit or blocks an attack, the yoyo immediately returns with no hitbox, regardless of whether it was placed with 214X or 236X.

Bridget curls up and rolls through the air towards her yoyo. [K] can be held to delay activation of the roll. If Bridget makes contact with the opponent during the roll, she executes an attack automatically which can be followed up with another air normal. One of Bridget's most important moves for executing high/low mixups. Highly advantageous on block and can be cancelled into air normals at several points during the move.

  • Bridget is able to cancel out of the roll with air actions, normals, or specials.
  • Bridget will roll towards her yoyo even if it is behind her.
  • While Roman Cancelling during the startup will cause a Purple Roman Cancel, if done while Bridget is moving before she attacks, it will cause a Blue Roman Cancel instead.

Bridget's dedicated invincible reversal.

Bridget lacks an invincible Overdrive, and instead has a DP Dragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion., for better and for worse. Like all DPs, it is throwable, and has low reward on hit. However, it is also costs no Tension, making Bridget one of few to have a constant threat to disrupt okizeme and gaps in pressure. It is also very active, making it good at catching opponents pre-emptively.

The range is decent, but can be exploited. The hitbox is slightly raised off the ground, meaning low pokes can be DP-safe. Additionally, Starship will not self-combo at a distance, losing any okizeme on hit.

  • Invincible startup, but can be thrown.
  • Cannot be Roman Canceled on whiff.

Approach tool and okizeme setup.

In neutral, Bridget can approach extremely quickly, using her BrakeGGST Bridget 236KP.pngGuardAllStartup7Recovery19Advantage-6 and ShootGGST Bridget 236KK.pngGuardAllStartup3Recovery29Advantage-35 to support her options. It is, however, extremely commital. Once started, Bridget cannot stop, making it easy to punish. Speeding up and slowing down can effectively bait out whiffs, to make this safer, or stall for time to recover safely. While it can be very unsafe on block slowing down or using BrakeGGST Bridget 236KP.pngGuardAllStartup7Recovery19Advantage-6 can be very safe.

In pressure, Kick Start My Heart functions as a frametrap from almost any range. With its further BrakeGGST Bridget 236KP.pngGuardAllStartup7Recovery19Advantage-6 and ShootGGST Bridget 236KK.pngGuardAllStartup3Recovery29Advantage-35 frametraps, this supplements lengthy blockstring pressure at any time. However these leave Bridget at risk of punish.

Off long-range confirms like S Follow-UpGGST Bridget S.pngGuardAllStartup12Recovery27Advantage-14 and H Follow-UpGGST Bridget H.pngGuardAllStartup12Recovery26Advantage-13, Bridget can zoom full-screen for enormous corner carry while still advantaged enough to meaty the opponent with c.S.

Safer, grounded ender from Kick Start My HeartGGST Bridget 236K.pngGuardAllStartup10Recovery9Advantage-20~+4.

Bridget grinds to a halt and discharges a large spark hitting a considerable distance. This can be used to poke early into the movement, hitting very far with momentum, and very safe on block. On hit, it launches the opponent far, with time to set up Stop and DashGGST Bridget Stop and Dash 214X.pngGuardAllStartup130RecoveryTotal 30Advantage~. If done too close, this becomes unsafe, but only to a very fast attack.

Kick Start My Heart is very unsafe unless it hits extremely late into the movement . In these situations, the additional time spent moving allows a delayed Brake to frametrap the opponent, and be significantly less punishable on block.

  • Cannot be Red Roman Cancelled on hit and can only be Purple Roman Cancelled.

Anti-air bait and crossup tool

Bridget immediately flies up, and back down. This can be used in situations to bait and punish common anti-air tools like 6P moves, making Bridget jump-ins more difficult to challenge. It is also safe on block, often completely unpunishable even blocked at point-blank range. It is, however, very reactable and easy to anti-air.

By carrying momentum, Roger Dive can also cross up an opponent for an ambiguous left-right mixup tool. Especially from after Rolling MovementGGST Bridget 214K.pngGuardAllStartup20~38Recovery0Advantage+16 (Airborne) is blocked for a consistent cross-up while defeating other abares.

  • Maintains all horizontal momentum from when the move is input.
  • Creates a small shockwave on landing, significantly increasing the horizonal reach.

Slow command grab wih enormous range, for use in pressure.

Can be special cancelled into, from both air and ground, with huge range, allowing Bridget to easily threaten a grab in safe blockstrings. However, it is slow, and easily interrupted by any abare, and can be jumped or backdashed on reaction. Additionally unlike most command grabs, Bridget can be grabbed out of this.

The recovery is comparatively short for a command grab, making for a difficult punish if the opponent opts to jump.

Despite appearance, the air version does not function as a practical air-to-air, due to its extremely small grab height. Instead, this allows Bridget to bait and punish reaction jump-outs, or be used to perform a grounded grab from the air.

Unfortunately, at mid-screen this gives worse okizeme than Throw, and is much slower. It is better utilised with Bridget's long-range pressure, or in corner okizeme with a set up Stop and DashGGST Bridget Stop and Dash 214X.pngGuardAllStartup130RecoveryTotal 30Advantage~ for meterless corner combos.

  • Throwable on startup.
  • When grounded, will only grab grounded opponents. Holding P does not adjust timing.
  • When airborne, will only grab airborne opponents. Holding P will delay the grab during the descent. Will force a whiff animation if held for too long before landing.
  • Landing before the aerial Rock the Baby begins will perform a grounded grab.

Otherwise not particularly special, as it gives no significant okizeme outside of the corner, and is very low damage for its cost. It is also relatively short range for Bridget, meaning many combos cannot confirm into this.

With 100% Tension, you can to Roman Cancel immediately both mid-screen and in the corner to set up mixups. You have enough time to perform a 5D overhead, a 2K > 5D for Low-High, and 2K > 2D for Low-Low, all of which combo and remain advantageous on block. This is extremely expensive, makng it often not very worthwhile use of so much Tension, unless it will easily close out the round.

  • Hitting an opponent in the corner causes a Wall Break and leaves Bridget at +36 frame advantage afterwards.
  • On Roman Cancel, Roger's attacks continue independent of Bridget.
  • If Bridget is interrupted, Roger's attacks will still continue.
