Azure Night Sky/Mai

Story

Mai is Azure's version of Guilty Gear Strive May

Introduction

Mai is a versatile beginner friendly character that can exceel at doing anything

Strengths

Weaknesses

Space Control: Mai has dolphins, bubble, super and her big normals that let her fight from a range Marine Life: Possibly best move in the game, pay 100MT to win neutral and lock them down from fullscrren, or convert from any hit. Kid: Mai has a small body and falls fast, meaning things might whiff on her Anti Airing: 2M, Up Dolphin, j.L, j.H and Super. Take your pick Meterless Damage: Mai can crack 40-50 damage meterless from most hits, her combos aren't affected much by scaling due to j.L loops. Marine Life is a + on block reversal

Fragile: Mai is the only chatacter to have 110 HP instead of 125HP, this also coupled with the fact her only reversal is a super. Limited Movelist: Mai doesn't have any special moves, and so has less moves than anyone, meaning there's less to learn how to deal with. Damage Ceiling: Although Mai's damage is consistently good, she struggles to do over 100 dmg, not a character you'll be TOD'ing people with
