Ougon Musou Kyoku/Ange Ushiromiya

Ange Ushiromiya

Background

The only member of the Ushiromiya family who did not appear at the fated 1986 meeting at Rokkenjima. Ange Beatrice, the Witch of Resurrection, heads to the island years later to find out the truth behind the murders.

Introduction

Ange plays very much like a puppet character from other fighting games, using Sakutarou to extend combos, blockstrings and even allow for some very unconventional 50/50 mix-ups. She has tools to keep the opponent at a distance whilst keeping herself relatively safe when Sakutarou isn't out, thanks to the help of her 421s and 214s, and also has access to a command grab, further increasing her mix-up game. Her ability, Stun Boost, makes stunning her opponent an easy task to perform, especially by just hitting them with her Meta Super off of a sweep. Her normals will take a bit to get used to and should be used with very close attention to the spacing between Ange and her opponent, as they could potentially drop combos/blockstrings if one isn't careful.

Health = 1400

Ability

Stun Boost
Significantly increases stun damage dealt for a short period of time.

Ange's ability pretty much guarantees that any combo performed while it is active will stun the opponent, without fail. This leads to some of the easiest guaranteed damage setups in the game, even if said damage values aren't phenomenal due to stun scaling all further damage to 50%. Be mindful of when and how you activate/use this ability - accidentally stunning early because of it can lead to wasted damage potential, or even SP.

It is also worth noting that Stun Boost's duration is tied for the shortest in the game. This can potentially hinder other abilities that last longer when Meta World is active.

Move List

Normal Moves

Standing

c.5A	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 54 x 5 5 5 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta ±0 ±0 x Ange hits the opponent with one knee. Standard close 5A

f.5A	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 54 x 7 5 6 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta -1 -1 x Ange does a simple kick. Hits mid. Strong stagger pressure tool, as this is even on block has a variety of gatling options and hits exceptionally far for a f.5A

c.5B

Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 150 x 8 5 9 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta +2 ±0 x Ange does a short-range straight kick. Can be used as a staple pressure tool at close ranges, due to being even on block with a gatling to 2B for a low stagger, 63214X command grab, or using the +0 to steal another turn. This move will also recover in time fast enough to block a burst.

f.5B	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 135 x 7 8 9 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta -1 -3 x Ange performs a straight kick. This move has a longer range than 2B so is more reliable in combos and is one of her main grounded tools. Like c.5B, f.5B will also recover in time fast enough to block a burst.

6B	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 180 x 31 10 12 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta +3 ±0 x Ange hops forward and does a straight kick. Slow version of microdash f.5B. Useful in some situations for the sheer range microdash 6B provides as a surprise neutral tool but generally not a very key move.

c.5C

Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 270 x 8 2 21 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta, Dash -6 -9 x Ange does a simple upward kick. Strong combo filler that can go into Meta or Tag for Ange's highest damage routes. There are some reliability issues hitting most crouching characters outside of point blank range. Has some situational use as a quick start up anti air for opponents directly above Ange, however this is unreliable due to f.5C

f.5C

Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 270 x 19 14 18 HL (J), Special, SP, Meta, Dash -7 -10 x Ange lifts her leg backwards, then swings for a simple upward kick. This move has almost no practical applications as almost a strictly inferior version of c.5C. It's to slow to combo from any B normals, Usually if you get this move it is an accident and you wanted c.5C. Ange would probably be better if this move didn't exist.

6C

Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 270 x 21 3 30 HL Meta KD -5 x She is not slapping them with Maria's diary, this is a pile of money. You can　even hear her say "Okane (お金)". Knocks down. This move fulfils a niche of doing extremely high damage to the enemies Break Limit bar. Combined with (EX) Sakatarou, Ange can achieve many strings that almost break guard by themselves such as 6C 236AB 6C.

Crouching

2A	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 48 x 4 6 4 HL Special, SP, Meta ±0 ±0 x Ange does a simple crouching kick. Strong staple stagger pressure tool. Good range for a 2A and actually hits low.

2B

Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 165 - 6 3 21 L Special, SP, Meta -8 -10 x Ange crouches and kicks upward. Valuable block string filler to catch opponents low. Be careful, as this whiffs in combos and block strings quicker than f.5B so at range you need to use that in order to get conversions. Has a small niche in that it makes Ange's hitbox low profile giving it some unique applications in neutral. Can be used as a situational anti air sometimes even because of this and it's upward hitbox but isn't super reliable. Does NOT bait burst

2C

Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 210 - 9 2 25 L Special, SP, Meta KD - x Ange performs a low leg sweep. Knocks down. Farthest reaching ground tool makes this a good call it for grounded neutral and trip guard just watch out for the recovery if you miss. Given f.5C's lack of comboability, the majority of your combos will go through this button into oki, tag or Meta.

Jumping

j.7/8/9A	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 60 x 4 6 6 H Special, SP ? ? x Ange hits the opponent with her knee in midair.

j.7/8/9B	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 150 - 6 8 2 H Special, SP ? ? x Ange performs a downward flying kick with one leg.

j.7/8/9C	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 252 - 12 10 4 H Special, SP ? - x Ange performs a downward flying kick with both legs.

j.2C	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 270 - 7 12 7 H Special, SP ? ? x Body press. Can be used as a crossup.

Throw

Throw B+C Whiff animation Whiff animation	Damage RecDamage Startup Active Recovery Guard Cancel Adv Hit Adv Block Invul 300 - 0-1 x 30 (if whiffed) UNB - KD x x Ange grabs the opponent by the collar and slaps them in the face. Knocks down.

Factors in choosing Ange for your team

Ange's ability is probably the best one in the game in a vacuum, but it is attached to a character that tends to struggle finding opportunities to use it, due to her unreliable buttons and sluggish movement. Thus, you'll want to select a partner that can both exploit the stun bonus plus a good way to find hits for Ange.

Chiester410

Chiester/Ange is all about crazy long combos and guard break set-ups. Any hit can lead into a meta loop, transitioning to a guard break sequence, and ending in Sakutarou Oki. As long as Chester has 2 bars available, this will be possible, as shown here

The biggest problem will be actually landing it. Once you have spent bar doing it, you are left with less meter than the opponent, and your meterless conversions are pretty sub-par, especially with Chiester, so a lot of your meta declares will be denied as they are very effective for your opponent to do so. Thus, you'll need to use Ange a lot as a battery which can prove difficult in many scenarios. Chiester can't be used as much in neutral due to always needing meter for the meta combo which is undeniably the main reason you are using this team composition. Meter management will be essential, and good use of Ange's neutral tools will be needed to make this strategy work.
