Introduction
Estelle is the perfect beginner character. On top of her very low execution barrier, her gameplan is one of the simplest there is: poke her opponents to death. To that end, she has access to a plethora of long projectiles and fast pokes that lets her dictate the pace of the match. Hard Break comes to mind as one of the best pokes in the game. It's cheap (10 SP), pretty fast, has projectile properties which makes it always win during trades and has some super armor. Comet and Fire Bolt EX are also quite good for ranged encounters, especially the latter since they're homing projectiles. However, this neutral control has a huge cost: her offense sucks. Since most of her Skills are neutral-centric, her combos become quite limited, and thus does very little damage on hit. This lack of offense-oriented Skills also impacts her pressure, or rather her lack thereof. While she does have a naturally armored pseudo-unblockable projectile in the form of Plasma Wave, it is extremely easy to just dodge it on reaction thanks to its awfully slow startup. As a result, Estelle finds herself having to outplay her opponents in neutral way more often than every other character in the game.
Estelle is an excellent character for anyone who REALLY loves to play neutral, or are looking for a good character to learn the game with.
Estelle is an extremely beginner-friendly character who excels in neutral thanks to her arsenal of pokes and projectiles |

Combos
Solo
- AB > S2 (480 damage)
- Simple max range combo. Not a lot of damage but at least it gives a knockdown.
- AB > S2, jump [A] > S6 (1.6k damage)
- Tech trap from the previous route at close range. S6 can be replaced by S1 or anything cheaper for a more SP efficient combo.
- AB > S3 jc > [A] > S2 (1.1k damage)
- Close range combo. The final S2 can be omitted for a slightly more SP efficient route.
- AB > S3 jc > j.A > S6 (1.8k damage)
- SP dump route.
With Scherazard assist
- ABC > S3 jc > [A] > S6 (2.2k damage)
- More damaging and SP efficient of the SP dump route. Also works at most ranges
- ABC > S1 > S2 jc > [A] (1.2k damage)
- More SP efficient route that still does good damage. Finishing with S6 does 2.1k damage
