BBCF/Weiss Schnee

This page is under construction, please ignore it for the time being

Overview

Weiss is a character that specializes in setups, having a tool for every situation. Whether it's using her long reaching rapier attacks to fight up close, firing ice shards to attack from afar, summoning ice pillars to block projectiles and limit the opponent's ground movements and using her semblance to do attacks that cover a lot of ground quickly or for some more tricky options, Weiss has a tool to fight comfortably in any situation.

At the same time, these tools all have very clear pros and cons. For example, her normals often have long reach but don't hit in a wide arc like Ruby's normals. As a result, a lot of Weiss' tools need to be selectively chosen to deal with a specific problem. To get the most out of Weiss' vast toolset, you'll need to train yourself to properly recognize situations and use the appropriate tool to handle it.

While her buttons can be oppressive, Weiss is highly susceptible to pushblock, having few options to get back in on the opponent without ending her turn or wasting resources. It can be difficult for her to maintain pressure without using committal options that can be stuffed out.

Pros	Cons
Long-ranged normals Great pressure tools Good defensive tools Proficient corner game Land cancels allow her to extend combos, continue pressure, maintain momentum, and/or stay defensive One of the few characters with a frame 4 reversal option(22C) Can use Ice pillar to wall out specific characters and force an approach(22A/B) Fantastic corner carry	Projectiles track but can miss easily Steep learning curve; requires a good understanding of neutral and proper execution to play Anti-air can be unreliable against specific approaches Aside from glyph follow-ups and j.C (In specific matchups), has no real way of opening opponents guard without using risky options (IAD in, glyph, etc.)

Normal Moves

5A

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	Frame Advantage	Attribute	Invulnerability
375	All	6	3	10	-1	Body

Startup is one frame faster than 5B, and can OTG.
Jump cancellable on hit.

Secondary poke tool. Unlike 5A, can hit some crouching opponents such as Makoto 2C and Kanji 2C. Can cancel into 2A on block, allowing for her to chain into her A normals (5A, 5AA) to prolong pressure and force the opponent to make a decision. It being a 7 frame option allows for her to contest stronger round starts (Mitsuru, Ragna) and hit low profiling moves (Yosuke, Linne).
