If he gets too comfortable spinning towards you, take that chance to throw out a hit on return yo-yo and threaten with that.
He can use Kou to swat you out of the air if you get too comfortable committing to Rolling Movement, so try to cancel it a few times to show him you've got mix.

Axl Low
While Axl doesn't necessarily allow Bridget to play in her long/mid range, she is able to close distance well and limit Axl's options up close. However, given Axl can punish Bridget's air approaches because of his control over air space, Bridget's Rolling MovementGuardAllStartup20~38Recovery0Advantage+16 (Airborne) is a bad option during neutral. Axl can also low profile Stop and Dash and 5H along with other pokes when timed right with his 2K, so defeating Axl is a matter of being careful in neutral and getting in.

You can catch a lot of his aerial pressure with a well-placed diagonal yo-yo toss snipe.

Baiken
Baiken is able to lock Bridget into an uncomfortable range that Baiken can patrol better than her. You will need to use your safe jump more than ever during this match up as Baiken can easily use her HiiragiGuard-Startup1Recovery32Advantage- and take a giant chunk of Bridget's healthbar if she tries to apply pressure. A lot of Baiken's pokes can easily beat Bridget's when in good range.

Faust
Faust's crouch alone can remove so many neutral options from Bridget. He can easily avoid Bridget's f.S, 5H and even j.K in some cases, and many of his moves crouching easily low profile these options. He generally beats Bridget in neutral and she has trouble getting in; even when she gets in, it can be hard to pressure Faust. Lastly, Rolling Movement will be a very risky option during neutral as it can get easily punished by Faust's 6P. The same goes for her Stop and DashGuardAllStartup15RecoveryTotal 38Advantage-4.

If he starts diving at you with j.2K from the air, you can use 6H to beat him out.
Be sure you mix up between covering high and low as he approaches as his crouch makes it incredibly hard for Bridget to use her best neutral tools.

Since after the patch you can destroy Thunderbird by hitting Goldlewis, you can throw a yo-yo at him and just negate that problem entirely.

May gets outranged, her pokes get easily beaten with a simple f.S, and she has to be careful when using her TotsugekiGuardAllStartup25Recovery20 (18 OH)Advantage+7 as Bridget's 2S will easily punish it. However, May WILL punish any mistakes, and even a simple whiff can get Bridget's healthbar down to less than half.

Nagoriyuki
Bridget can reliably stop Nagoriyuki from doing much if she plays carefully, but a single mistake can spell death. Be careful trying to do air approaches because Nagoriyuki's 2H easily will counter it. He is weak to pressure so make sure to keep him pinned down. Bridget negates many of Nago's roundstart options with just a 5P alone.

Zato-1
An oppressive puppet character, Zato-1 and Eddie has strong offense, but is easily put into the blender.
Overview | Frame Data | Matchups | Counterstrategy | Reverse Matchup Return to Top
Round Start
General Information
Zato-1 is an incredibly oppressive character, utilizing EddieHis shadow puppet to enable great offense upon his foe. His strike/throw mixup is a threat to Bridget, who has to defend correctly for an extended amount of time to get out of pressure, and being at risk of being command grabbed, which resets pressure.
Hitting Eddie or Zato-1 with any attack will kill Eddie, ensuring he won't return for a short period of time.
Zato-1 has a fly instead of an air dash and double jump, which is very slow. This is easily called out by 2H or 6P.
Neutral
You should play neutral carefully, exploiting the gaps in his attempts to put you on the defensive. Moves like Oppose allows Zato-1 to exert control of neutral while keeping distance. Utilize Bridget's strong pokes like 2H and 5H to kill Eddie, or even throw Bridget's yo-yo!
Offense
Zato-1 has poor defensive mechanics, enabling Bridget to put him into the blender. Utilize strong okizeme and mixup tools like c.S (See Okizeme page for more) and 214K to ensure he doesn't have a chance to slip back into offense. He has a strong 6P, but this is easily called out and countered by a move like 2S.
Defense
This is Zato-1's strongest domain, and the part of the game Bridget need to pay the most attention to. A good Zato-1 player will utilize Eddie to create seemingly unbreakable pressure and a terrifying strike/throw mixup. However, Bridget has the tools to avoid crumbling to the pressure, like her invincible 623P DP, and her fast moves like 2K and 5K. If you can figure out the small gaps in his pressure, you can break out of it using DP or a mash.
Zato-1 cannot keep up pressure forever, as Eddie will eventually die, so pay attention to the Eddie GaugeZato-1's unique resource. Zato-1 will most likely attempt to go for his command grab, as this allows him to heal Eddie and reset pressure. If you can call it out, you can jump out of his command grab, allowing you to punish him and send him to the corner.
