Big Bang Beat Revolve/Miyazato

Miyazato
Estimated Health (After Scaling): 12578

Introduction

Miyazato has a lot of strange tools, including a set of assists, and in general she can be very hard to get a hang of at the beginning. Once you start understanding her tools however she has some of the best neutral in the game and a lot of strong tools to keep the opponent where you want them.

General Strategy

Miyazato's greatest strength lies in her pokes. Her C attacks have great range and do moderate damage on their own. Super jumps are more important for Miyazato than the rest of the cast as they extend the range that she can safely execute a j.C while jumping in on an opponent.

She is the only character with assists, and one of their greatest strengths is that they can't be stopped. The instant Miyazato does the summoning animation, the assists will come out and attempt their attacks, no matter what. Saki is best used for pressuring your opponent when in close and even keeping them out or punishing their attacks. Shouko is great for numerous setups as she has delay, tracking, and will bounce your opponent up on hit.

Miyazato's combos are rather "cookie cutter," and thanks to the game's scaling she has a hard time breaking into the 3k range for damage. This is somewhat negligible as long combos aren't really her thing and a lot of her short, simple combos are much more reliable and damaging. Her super, when used by itself, does more damage than most characters in the same situation. You to get true block strings on your opponent. 41236C can be used in mixup for throw attempts if your opponent is expecting the kick, but use it sparingly because it's not safe.

Air Normals

jA

jA	Damage Guard Property Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Cancel 100 High - - - - - N, Sp, Su A fast air jab. This button is best used as an air-to-air, as it doesn't have much combo potential and is an unreliable jump-in.

jC

Combos

Combo Theory

• Combo damage varies from character to character, so all damage numbers come from testing on a full-health Rouga.

Midscreen

• 5B > 5C > 2C xx 214A xx 214B > 5B xx 214A xx dl.214B > 2C > 6A > dl.5C > j.B xx Boost > j.A > j.B xx j.214A (3747)

• A very strong meterless midscreen combo, for all intents and purposes Rouga's BNB. It will always send the opponent to the corner, and give you oki on the knockdown.

• 6B xx j.214A xx Boost > dl.j.B > 214A xx dl.214B > 5B xx 214A xx dl.214B > 2C > 6A > dl.5C > 6A xx *623A (2961)

• Good midscreen confirm off Rouga's overhead.

• 5B > 5C xx 2147D > *5C xx 214B > 2C xx 214A xx 214B > 2C > 6A > dl.5C > 6A xx *623A (5183)

• A very damaging combo midscreen that uses 1 meter. Just solid all around.

Corner

• 6B xx j.214A > 5C xx 214A xx dl.214B > 5B xx 214A xx dl.214B > 2C > 6A > dl.5C > 6A xx dl.623A (3589)

• Meterless corner combo for Rouga. This character has more damage than practically anyone else in the game, and this is a great example.
