Fate Unlimited Codes/Luviagelita

Overview

Overview

---

Luviagelita (or just Luvia) is a versatile grappler with relatively oppressive pressure thanks to her plus on block overhead special (421A). She is able to setup a lot of dangerous situations on block to get her command grab or to start strings on an opponent attempting to jump away from her command grab. Her neutral game is her weakest aspect, allowing her to be zoned out by a large amount of the cast and each attack she uses has risk of being pushblocked and reseting her to a dangerous range. At a distance, in some matchups she can abuse her 236X which is a solid fireball.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Has very strong combo that has the potential to unburstable ToD Has a healthy variety of mix ups The majority of her moves is only 10% descale Strong anti-air with 421X that bounce the target, leading to combo Has very versatile Rekka, for none ToD routes, she can always end with both meter damage and Hard Knock Down Has the best command grabs in the game, B and C version can lead to combo

Her grapple loop combos make her a top 3 difficulty character with the links and execution required Weak neutral Low mobility Limited effective range, her 236A is only a makeshift projectile Vulnerable to pushblock Opponent can back dash against her command grab and some characters are fast enough to punish her Many of her moves have significant startup and recovery, making her susceptible to whiff punish Her 22C~A is supposed to be her initiator, but it has no protection, and she can easily be punished by using it

22C

Hunting Lady 22C

Version Damage Guard Cancel Startup Total Length Blockstun Block Adv 22C > A - Throw A 37 53 - - 22C > B - Low R, A 32 63 12 -18 22C > C - High R, A 32 63 12 -18 22C > D - - A - 33 - - 22C puts Luvia into her unique grappling stance, which has a tree of followups possible afterward. The followups also track the opponent, even if Luvia herself is off-axis with the opponent after entering the stance. 22C~A Luvia attempts an advancing throw on the opponent, swapping sides with them on success. This is NOT a true command grab though; the opponent can tech the throw. Uniquely, Reflect Cancel is also not possible at any point at all during this move. Though this grab does no damage on its own, she can link into 5A after a successful grab. 22C~B and 22C~C Luvia leaps at either the opponent's legs (B version) or head (C version) with hitgrabs that hit low and overhead, respectively. They also both come out on the same frame and look identical for most of their startup, so in theory they can be used as a true 50/50 whenever she can get a stance off, such as after a HKD. Each of the followups below are possible after the opponent has been forced to the ground by one of the above. These followups can also all grant a Hard Knockdown once they complete. Queen Slap (464646...) You probably saw this move on the one TAS TOD video online, and it brought you here. After an initial 646 or 464 input, Luvia slaps the opponent across the face repeatedly for at least 7 hits. Continuing to alternate the back and forth directions will speed her up, leading to more hits and damage. Each slap deals 30 unscaled damage per hit, and then the coup de grâce (the final hit of the sequence that ends the grapple) deals 100 unscaled damage. With frame perfect inputs, the most number of hits that can be reached is 27 which will deal a total of 880 damage, however only upwards of maybe 20 or so hits (600~700 damage) are really feasible by most human players. Because of the difficulty or perhaps impossibility of maximizing the damage output of this followup, the Gandr followup is used more often as it is consistent and will mostly likely deal more damage. On the other hand, this follow up ends each grapple with a small ground bounce, so it becomes easier to both link 5C or 2C afterward and also connect another grapple without using too many hits compared to Gandr, resulting in more potential loops. Gandr followup (Mash B eight times) Shoots the opponent with a point-blank Gandr shot that deals 800 unscaled damage. This is the followup Luvia will use most of the time. Luvia can link a 5C or 2C afterward similarly to after slaps, however it's a much tighter window as they're left on the ground. Spangle Necklace followup (C > B > A > B > C > A+B+C) Chokeslams the opponent with fire and stuff. Deals a total of 1000 unscaled damage, but ends the combo. 22D Luvia cancels her stance and recovers. Reflect Cancel is not possible at all during this recovery.

Hunting Lady ToD: Kirei variation (Video Demonstration)

• Keep in mind this is a very rare case. in real match, Luvia is very unlikely to ToD characters with high HP, which include Kirei, Saber Alter and Berserker. The only possibility is that they have less than 100% meter and she catches them
• The Hunting Lady combo is only safe from burst up until around 10,700 damage, meaning the next grapple will put Luvia at risk. Which is why I decided to go with unscaled Super ender
• Removing j.C will lower the combo's damage by 150, which is still enough to kill Kirei, as long as you don't drop the combo
