Story
One of the two servants present at Rokkenjima at the time of the serial killings, the other being her "younger brother" Kanon. Due to her constant breaking of mirrors she has 1000 years of bad luck.
Introduction
The big-hearted but sometimes clumsy maid of Ushiromiya mansion, she uses her clumsiness to her advantage in peculiar ways: Tripping to make plates fly, out of control food cart and clearing the floor make for unorthodox normals. Alongside that she does offers magic too, which she used for zoning and protective barrier which acts as great antiair and reversal. She can also summon seagull, which is a great oki- and neutral control tool. Her clumsiness sadly gives her almost no neutral presence with buttons, but if you can accept's Shannon quirks, she does as good job as expected from magical maid.
Strenghts
- Unorthodox normals: Shannon has alot unusual normals with weird properties which can be used in weird places to confuse opponent.
- Great meterless reversal and antiair: Her Barrier is a both great antiair, which is rate treat in Ougon, and a great reversal which doesn't need any meter.
- Seagull controls neutral and pressure: Seagull is good to control neutral for it's boomerang ark, and as oki tool to force opponent to block on wakeup.
- Decent pressure and mixups: Shannon's pressure string cannot be optimally tagged off and pushbacks in a way that Shannon can summon Seagull back without it being punisheable. Seagull itself gives Shannon ways to use comboable overhead, emptyjumps and sideswitches.
- Huge potential damage in corner.: If Shannon player can do metaloops, opponent can be stunned quickly.
Weaknesses
- Lackluster normals: Shannon has no range or speed on almost any of her normals, so she cannot use them on neutral at all
- Zoning is committal: She has to be careful with barrier spacing or opponent can punish Shannon for using them, and fast characters can negate her using seagull.
- Hard time getting pressure started on her own: She doesn't get oki from almost any of her normal conversions or zoning, so she cannot start her main strength easily.
- Hard to fit in on many teams***: Her unorthodox quirks and ability makes her little hard to fit on a team in a way both parties get something out.
Ability
Auto-Guard - You will automatically guard for 15 seconds. This allows you to autoblock in the middle of dashes.
This ability is ok for Shannon, since it can make dealing against full screen zoning easier. However, Shannon doesn't need this on other matchups since she doesn't have need to dash a lot at other matchups. In general, it's a good ability for slower characters like Dlanor, Ronove and Virgilia, but these three don't go well with Shannon in term of team building.
Gameplan
Team Building
- Jessica - Both struggle in neutral, and have poor pokes. It can kinda work with Jessica's natural explosive damage, but have zero synergy.
- Ange - Stun can be OK to setup easier oki scenarios for Shannon, and autoblock can help Ange's middling ground game, but other than that they dont compliment other big flaws they've, like neutral.
- Battler - Battler's natural versatility makes him a great partner for Shannon. Battler's amazing neutral helps with tagging Shannon, and Battler's ability compliments Shannon's tankiness and more zoning gameplay. Only issue with team is if Shannon cannot do metaloops, it can lack a little in damage department.
- Beatrice - Another naturally versatile character, thus good for Shannon. It's for a different reason, however, since Beatrice's ability gives more damage and knockdown possibilities easier. Not as good synergy as Battler, but definitely good enough to have on consideration when thinking about partners for Shannon.
- Rosa - Both being zoners characters with good oki, Rosa offers an interesting synergy for Shannon, since the fear of Detachment makes people more wary of seagulls and shields. This gives Shannon easier time to approach, and overall makes her mixups even more steamrolling.
- Virgilia - Not much good synergy, since both have quite awkward movement and Lia has no use for Shannon's ability as a zoner.
- Willard - Hands down the best partner for Shannon. Coupled with Will's already great versatility, damage and corner carry, his ability makes metalooping much easier, ensuring Shannon a guaranteed stuns to setup.
- Kanon - OK partner for Shannon; Kanon's ability gives meter advantage from Shannon's zoning, and Kanon's rushdown gives Shannon easier time for tag into corner pressure
- Lucifer - More potential damage thanks to Luci's ability, and Shannon's ability can be nice for Luci easier time to start pressure due to her fast dash speed. Other than that, not much overall synergy.
- Black Battler - Because B.Battler lacks regular Battler's ability, there isn't much of a synergy outside of Battler's good neutral buttons.
- Eva - Eva's ability can be ok to add some damage for Shannon's meddling mid-screen combos, but otherwise not much synergy.
- Chiester 410 - They don't offer much with their different zoning styles, and their normal buttons aren't the best.
- Ronove - Ronove offers an interesting turtle synergy. Shannon's ability is great for Ronove who has harder time to get in neutral, and makes guard kicks much easier. Problem with team is that you need to run Shannon on-point, which is not ideal for Shannon.
- LambdaDelta - No particular synergy.
- George - Shannon's ability helps George's poor ground neutral, but not much else.
- Erika - No particular synergy, lacks in midscreen damage heavily.
- Dlanor - Shannon's ability helps with Dlanor's poor movement, but nothing else
- Bernkastel - No particular synergy, other than Bernkastel being a great character on her own.
