She also has Left/Right Mix-up To perform a maneuver that forces a defending opponent to choose between two or more options. If the opponent chooses incorrectly, then they are hit by an attack. There are many different types of mix-ups such as crossup(left/right), high/low, and strike/throw.s with a well positioned Bomb-Bomb ChocolatGuardAllStartup29Recovery0Advantage+14 (mid air), decent zoning with Miss Charlotte, Bomb-BombnnièreGuardGround ThrowStartup7+0Recovery50 (32 OH)Advantage- for strike/throw mix when she has tension, and great corner carry with Miss Charlotte (Out of Repair)GuardAllStartup14Recovery10Advantage-8~+3.

Elphelt is a well rounded rushdown character who can rely on her huge normals and consistent mix-up options to keep the advantage in her favor.

Pick if you like	Avoid if you dislike
Quickly swapping between throwing your opponent into the blender, and patiently waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Great corner carry off BnBs. Big buttons with great range and disjoints. Gameplan focused on mixup and crushing your opponent's mental stack.	Lacking defensive options without meter. Having a worse (and metered) reversal than average, at 13F startup. Lower health and having to face the music if you slip up.

Chain Lollipop

Unique Mechanic: Chain Lollipop

Here I Go! is your entry point into the Chain Lollipop state.

Using 214SGuardAllStartup20Recovery16Advantage-2, Elphelt can enter a rekka A series of special attacks that are only available after the first one is performed. state known as "Chain Lollipop". By pressing either P, K, S or H, she uses a corresponding move with a different effect:

Here I Go!GuardAllStartup20Recovery16Advantage-2 starts the Chain Lollipop sequence, and can be repeated without limit by pressing S afterwards. Using Here I Go!GuardAllStartup20Recovery16Advantage-2 resets the chain, allowing 2 other inputs to be used afterwards before the sequence ends, unless S is pressed again to reset.

Up High!GuardHighStartup14Recovery24Advantage-10 is a multi-hitting overhead attack initiated by pressing P during Chain Lollipop. Pressing another button other than S afterwards will end the sequence.

Down Low!GuardLowStartup14Recovery24Advantage-10 is the low-hitting K counterpart to Up High!GuardHighStartup14Recovery24Advantage-10, using both in Chain Lollipop sequences is key to overwhelming the opponent. Again, pressing another button other than S afterwards will end the sequence.

Nailed It!GuardAllStartup13Recovery21Advantage-5 can be used at any time with H during Chain Lollipop and will always end the sequence. It's the go-to finisher, leaving Elphelt with the advantage after she's successfully mixed an opponent with Up High!GuardHighStartup14Recovery24Advantage-10 or Down Low!GuardLowStartup14Recovery24Advantage-10.

Fast and high-reward anti-air to quickly respond to opponents stalling above you.

A mostly standard 5P, but with generally good startup and reaches high up, making it a more reliable anti-air. On air hit it leads to very powerful combos with c.S, making it considerably higher reward than 6P if used. It is strongest against empty jumps and other tactics to stall above Elphelt; or cross-up behind her.

As an abare, it is generally overshadowed by 2P, as this is more susceptible to whiffing, and is not faster to recover.

Whiffs on crouching opponents.

Uncharged Dust Attack

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.

All-around strongest abare An attack during the opponent's pressure, intended to interrupt it., with very fast startup and reliable confirms.

2P can be used to escape gaps in offense where the opponent is either very close, or extends an attack into the 2P. Its fast startup makes it ideal to exploit narrow gaps in offense, especially to interrupt Tick Throws A throw done after attacks, very soon after if not exactly when throw invulnerability expires on the opponent. A Tick Throw take advantage of that the opponent naturally expect a Frame Trap coming, making it very hard to react to or escape from. and stagger pressure.

Doubles as an alternative stagger pressure tool, being able to bait YRC and Burst, with a short enough blockstun to easily run in for a Throw before the opponent can react.

On hit, can combo with 2P > 6P > 214K for easy advantage. However, if you play for a Counter Hit, you can link into 2P CH > 2K > 2D for a stronger knockdown, and at point-blank range even get a combo with 2P CH > c.S.

Your gateway to Elphelt's big combos, and a questionably extreme anti-air.

As Elphelt's only attack able to combo into Bomb-Bomb ChocolatGuardAllStartup29Recovery0Advantage+14 (mid air) outside of the corner, with very high damage, most of her biggest combos rely on accessing a comboable 6H, either using a Counter Hit c.S, an air-hit c.S, or the stagger from Wild Assault.

This technically can function as an anti-air thanks to its large range, enormous anti-air disjoint, high active time, and potentially lethal reward on hit. However, it will need to be extremely pre-emptive to stand a chance of working, and is very bad on whiff, making this high risk.

Very weak jump-in, j.S and j.H are considerably more rewarding. Instead, j.K is mostly used in F-Shiki Sometimes known as "Fuzzy Overhead".

Air Throws have both normal recovery (which recovers CH) and special recovery frames upon landing (not CH). It is technically possible to recover mid-air from a whiffed Air Throw, but it usually doesn't happen unless done from very high in the air.
Opponent cannot use Blue Psych Burst on hit or the resulting knockdown.
On-Hit value is for attacker's IAD height, except for Potemkin and Nagoriyuki, who have their instant Air Throw height instead.

Elphelt shoots a projectile that homes in on the opponent after some time.

The projectile will move very rapidly to a spot some distance from Elphelt, then stop. At this point, it turns to face directly towards the opponent, and then moves in a straight line. To evade it in neutral, the opponent will want to make sure that they are moving at the moment it stops. This can be done fairly easily on reaction, but it will often hit preemptive jumps.

S version is useful for neutral situations, since it targets the opponent fairly quickly. H version is useful for okizeme and pressure, since it takes slightly longer to target the opponent, allowing Elphelt to strike before it hits.

Projectile goes away if Elphelt is hit, even after it's been launched from her rifle. Has a dead zone in front of her, meaning that if the opponent is point-blank, Miss Charlotte will fire behind the opponent. Even if the projectile goes off-screen, it's still active, and can come back to hit during corner pressure.

Elphelt's gun seems to misfire, with the recoil sending her flying across the stage. This move has solid corner carry, making it useful as a combo ender and allowing her to get some form of okizeme. If spaced correctly, this move can be very plus on block, allowing her to extend pressure while also making it a decent neutral skip option due to how fast and far Elphelt moves. However, it is quite slow, so it can be easily called out and/or stuffed in situations like roundstart.

Okizeme tool and pressure reset to set up mixups, doubling as a callout move.

With its strong air advantage, Bomb-Bomb Chocolat easily sets up some of Elphelt's best offense. Following up with j.H leaves her +10 to easily jail into her c.S, but she can easily bait out defensive options by stalling herself in the air with various air movement options. On okizeme, the bomb can be hit meaty from OTGs The act of hitting the opponent when they are knocked down. Short for "off the ground" or "on the ground." to create completely safe mixups with j.D and 2K, while being a functional safejump, with a large variety of Roman Cancel options.

Cancelling into Bomb-Bomb Chocolat on block is very dangerous. Universally opponents can easily react late with a jump to Air Throw, but quicker reactions net very powerful punishes. Despite this, it can work as a callout against opponents thanks to how easily Elphelt jumps over attacks, including most 6P attacks. It can also double as a cross-up tool to cause whiffs or surprise unsuspecting opponents.

While it can be rocket-proppelled by dash momentum, Bomb-Bomb Chocolat is very rare in neutral, as the bomb doesn't hit as far as Elphelt travels, usually leaving her easily punishable.

0 on block after Elphelt lands, if not followed up by any air actions.

Begin or reset Chain Lollipop, for a powerful mix-up layered offense.

Once it begins, Elphelt can use her follow-ups for strong High and Low mixups, or go into a Tick Throw A throw done after attacks, very soon after if not exactly when throw invulnerability expires on the opponent. A Tick Throw take advantage of that the opponent naturally expect a Frame Trap coming, making it very hard to react to or escape from. using the low recovery. While none of these options are particularly good damage, it can be very hard to escape the pressure once it begins, and generates a lot of Tension in the process. The attack is slightly slow, making it always possible to interrupt with a 6P unless cancelled into from 5H or 6H. The mere threat of this makes it very important to play around opponents predicting with 6P.

It can also be used during Chain Lollipop to reset the pressure. This is especially good midscreen after hitting the mixup, instead of Nailed It! (H)GuardAllStartup13Recovery21Advantage-5. This lets you prolong the offense for even more value, without resetting to neutral. Using it after a Chain Lollipop attack is blocked will risk a 6F gap that can be hit by a 5P/2P, for a potentially devastating counter-attack.

A slow but long-range invulnerable reversal and combo ender.

At 13F startup, Elphelt's reversal is susceptible to powerful safe-meaty attacks. On top of generally bad vertical range, this is particularly weak as a wakeup option. However, its enormous range allows it to retaliate even from very far away. In addition, it launches very far, with time to get okizeme, easily shifting the momentum from the corner.

It is common to end combos by using Juganto da parfeo to break the wall, getting to reset offense with Positive Bonus. This can even be done during Chain Lollipop by timing your input as a Kara Cancel.

Triggers an instaneous Wall Break. Results in a Hard Knockdown for +36 frame advantage.
Uniquely the attack is a projectile, meaning it cannot be interrupted after super-flash or Red Roman Cancelled.
