== Overview == | |||
{{StrengthsAndWeaknesses | |||
|intro= '''H-WArc''' is a zoner with solid air and ground control and highly damaging combos. | |||
|pros= | |||
*'''Diverse zoning toolset''': 236A is a slow, air unblockable reppuken. 22A is an instant (after startup), full screen zoning tool which, on counter hit, stuns the target for a long time. Air rings provide safety moving in the air when opponent is below you. | |||
*'''Solid air-to-air''': H-WArc's j.B comes out in only 5 frames and has a sizeable amount of disjoint, and can lead into solid air blockstrings and conversions even on non-counterhit if airdash cancelled. Her air rings are also an incredibly robust zoning tool, especially air to air. | |||
*'''Very high damage''': HWArc deals fantastic damage, consistently over 5k on most starters and even able to break 6k under ideal conditions. | |||
|cons= | |||
*'''Poor abare tools''': H-WArc's A normals are quite poor, with 2A hitting mid, 5A whiffing crouchers, and both hitting only on frame 6. Despite having a 5 frame 5C, its inability to be cancelled on whiff and its tendency to whiff on crouching opponents at farther ranges make it inconsistent and risky when considering its recovery. | |||
*'''Poor reversal options''': H-WArc has no meterless reversals. Her only real reversal (236C) is punishable on hit when landing from 1 character length or shorter. She has some invulnerability on 214C and 623C, but neither are particularly reliable. | |||

}} | |||
== General Gameplan == | |||
H-Warc's gameplan relies on non-committal movement and zoning to goad opponents into approaching, then using her large hitboxes to punish reckless approaches. | |||
Her most powerful tools are also the most risky as while they cover large amounts of the screen, they generally have long recovery meaning they can be easily punished if the opponent gets around them. | |||
Playing H-Warc can sometimes feel like throwing out "random" hitboxes and hoping the opponent will fall into them. However doing this predictably or at unsafe times will quickly result in you getting punished for it. Using this gameplan effectively requires equal parts predicting your opponent's movements and evaluating the gamestate to know when it's safe to go for pre-emptive screen control versus when you need to reposition. | |||
== | === Neutral === | ||
In the simplest terms, 236A controls the ground while j.B controls the air. Use 236A to dissuade the opponent from approaching on the ground and use j.B to intercept when they try to approach from the air. | |||
When not going for anything specific you'll typically want to stick to (ostensibly) safe aerial movement while throwing out j.B and j.214A to fish for stray hits. A simple option for this is jump > air dash back > j.B or j.214A > do something on landing (typically 236A, 214A, run forward, or another jump). '''This will quickly result in you cornering yourself if repeated too much''', so it's important to regain space whenever you can. Microdash > 5A is a relatively safe way of doing this, and can even sometimes catch an opponent off guard if they were expecting you to continue retreating. | |||
Apart from zoning, ground specials are mostly reserved for pre-empting approaches. When to go for this will vary greatly depending on the matchup. | |||
236A is your go-to "I want some screen presence" move. It can stuff ground approaches while it's out, and it can also trip up an opponent who is maneuvering in the air as they can easily land on top of it if they're not careful. | |||
236B is best saved for when you have some space. You'll want to use it to catch an opponent while they might think they're safe to set up for something or try to start zoning themselves. Mix this in with 236A at longer ranges to keep your opponent guessing. | |||
214A and 214B are best used when spaced out enough that an IAD won't be a threat. At this distance an opponent trying to approach from higher angles in the air will be at risk of falling into a ring and getting counterhit or setting up a favourable trade for you. If they don't approach they most likely won't be able to do much to punish you before you recover (depending on the matchup. In other words don't do this against C-Ciel when she has 100 meter). | |||
22A and 22B are the most situational specials for the neutral game. They're good to mix in with 236A/B while zoning in order to throw off timing, and they can sometimes shut down attempts to approach on the ground or with a forward superjump (22A only for the latter), but otherwise they don't have much neutral use as they can be completely avoided by simply crouching. 22B is arguably useful as a feint; it looks identical to 22A so an opponent might approach/go for a punish thinking you'll be vulnerable for longer, but the quick recovery time of the B version will allow you to intercept. | |||
=== Pressure === | |||
H-Warc's pressure game is very reliant on frametraps. She only has a few situational means of gaining plus frames (without spending meter), so in order to maintain pressure she has to be unpredictable with blockstring enders to keep the opponent guessing when it's safe for them to try and take their turn back. If you do have meter, 214C is the most consistent way to gain plus frames. However the frame advantage off of this isn't that much so typically you can only use it to dash back into range. | |||
As holdable moves 5B and 5C can both be held briefly in order to enforce stagger pressure. | |||
2A > 5A(w)6A will frametrap a crouching opponent and can also be done via spacing (this is similar in practice to C-Warc's 2A > 5A(w) > 2A frametrap). | |||
- | 5C/2C > 236B is a natural frametrap and is your go-to way of frametrapping at the end of a blockstring. 214A can be used to similar effect, with less combo conversionability but more coverage for opponents holding up. | ||
If you're in range, 236B > (instant) 5C will also frametrap, meaning it's possible to alternate between 5C and 236B, with each one being a frametrap. Typically this is most useful when you're at point-blank range, like after an airthrow ender into the corner, as this allows you to loop it 2 or 3 times. Obviously this is vulnerable to being shielded, so just like everything else don't use it predictably. | |||
'''Avoid using 214B in pressure''', as any character can IAD over it and get a guaranteed punish. | |||
The most important part of pressuring as H-Warc is to remain unpredictable. If you always go for the same frametrap your opponent will adapt and get easy shields. Mix up your options between 236A, reverse beat 5A, 236B, 214A, rebeat 5A > 236A, etc. to keep them guessing. If your opponent is patient and doesn't bite at all, that's when you start to mix in 5[B], 5[C], and throws. | |||

- | === Defense === | ||
Defense can be a struggle for H-Warc. As an H-moon she doesn't have access to EX-Shield, EX Guard, or Heat Activation. She has no meterless reversal, and her only true reversal, 236C, is usually punishable on hit and best avoided. That being said, while it may have obvious deficiencies her defense is far from hopeless. | |||
5C is one of her best assets on defense. At 4 frames it's her fastest normal, and for how fast it is it has comparatively huge range. This makes 5C a fantastic abare option, although it's not without its weaknesses. First is that it's a holdable move, meaning it's easy to accidentally extend the startup by having the button pressed for longer than intended. Being a C normal it also has long recovery time on whiff. Finally, 5C has a tendency to whiff on crouching characters at further ranges. Practice doing instant 5C to avoid the first issue, and try to stay aware of spacing to avoid having this move whiff. You may find opponents intentionally going for blockstrings that push them further away in order to bait the move. Adjust by going for 236A instead (or just jump. If they're spacing themselves out to bait 5C their pressure naturally won't be as tight). When you're using this on defense you'll want to buffer something behind it. 5C > 236A is almost always the best for this, but 5C > 623A can be converted to a combo if you're willing to risk it (or if you have meter to cancel into 214C and keep yourself safe). | |||
2B is relatively fast and has decent range. More importantly though; 2B is her sweep, meaning it will get you a hard knockdown and give you valuable time to do whatever you feel is necessary in the moment. Use it to escape the corner, go for an OTG, or set up your own offense. | |||
236A can be a decent tool for defense in some matchups. Typically most useful against characters with longer normals, it also has uses when an opponent spaces themselves out more, as it will stuff attempts to dash back in range. | |||
5B is a very situational option on defense. Rarely it can hit someone out of the air, but the main reason to use this is the forward movement. If the opponent went into the air, this will move you out of the corner. There's a good chance you'll still get hit for it, but you'll be out of the corner. | |||
If you're willing to spend the meter, 624C can get you out of the corner almost guaranteed. 623C can also be used to similar but lesser effect, although the input may be more awkward to do out of block. | |||
Finally, you can always try to run out of the corner. Warc's run is very low to the ground, even slipping under IADs. This is a surprisingly useful option on defense and it may be worth going for on occasion. | |||
Disregarding matchup specifics, general concepts when on defense apply. Don't get impatient, keep an eye out for your opponent's habits, and look for opportunities to jump out; H-Warc's suite of powerful aerial options open up several more possibilities for her. Don't be afraid to shield bunker either if you have the meter for it. H-moon's bunker is very powerful so long as you're not using it predictably. Defense is an uphill battle for H-Warc, moreso than many other characters, but it's far from insurmountable. | |||
- | == Combos == | ||
{{ComboLegend-MB}} | |||
A lot of air strings can be free form in a real match. The ones that are listed should be optimal. | |||
<br>In a real match you might need to adjust your air strings depending on opponent's height(depends on your timing of things), and hurtboxes. | |||
<br>Mostly it's decision of when to omit certain j.A or if you can maybe do full j.B or if you can even airdash j.B(1). | |||
=== Combo parts === | |||
'''Note:''' This section will be divided between starter ground strings, aerial followups and ender options. The combo sections following this one will also use these aerial followups/ender options. | |||

|description=Warc summons a moon-like object which will fall after some time, resulting in an unblockable attack that causes an untechable knockdown on the opponent. However, if Warc is hit during the duration of this Arc Drive, the moon drop is cancelled. | |||
If this Arc Drive's vertical hitbox hits (see image), this will result in an instant moon drop, but this will do much less damage. | |||

General Gameplan
H-Warc's gameplan relies on non-committal movement and zoning to goad opponents into approaching, then using her large hitboxes to punish reckless approaches.
Her most powerful tools are also the most risky as while they cover large amounts of the screen, they generally have long recovery meaning they can be easily punished if the opponent gets around them.
Playing H-Warc can sometimes feel like throwing out "random" hitboxes and hoping the opponent will fall into them. However doing this predictably or at unsafe times will quickly result in you getting punished for it. Using this gameplan effectively requires equal parts predicting your opponent's movements and evaluating the gamestate to know when it's safe to go for pre-emptive screen control versus when you need to reposition.
Neutral
In the simplest terms, 236A controls the ground while j.B controls the air. Use 236A to dissuade the opponent from approaching on the ground and use j.B to intercept when they try to approach from the air.
When not going for anything specific you'll typically want to stick to (ostensibly) safe aerial movement while throwing out j.B and j.214A to fish for stray hits. A simple option for this is jump > air dash back > j.B or j.214A > do something on landing (typically 236A, 214A, run forward, or another jump). This will quickly result in you cornering yourself if repeated too much, so it's important to regain space whenever you can. Microdash > 5A is a relatively safe way of doing this, and can even sometimes catch an opponent off guard if they were expecting you to continue retreating.
Apart from zoning, ground specials are mostly reserved for pre-empting approaches. When to go for this will vary greatly depending on the matchup.
236A is your go-to "I want some screen presence" move. It can stuff ground approaches while it's out, and it can also trip up an opponent who is maneuvering in the air as they can easily land on top of it if they're not careful.
236B is best saved for when you have some space. You'll want to use it to catch an opponent while they might think they're safe to set up for something or try to start zoning themselves. Mix this in with 236A at longer ranges to keep your opponent guessing.
214A and 214B are best used when spaced out enough that an IAD won't be a threat. At this distance an opponent trying to approach from higher angles in the air will be at risk of falling into a ring and getting counterhit or setting up a favourable trade for you. If they don't approach they most likely won't be able to do much to punish you before you recover (depending on the matchup. In other words don't do this against C-Ciel when she has 100 meter).
22A and 22B are the most situational specials for the neutral game. They're good to mix in with 236A/B while zoning in order to throw off timing, and they can sometimes shut down attempts to approach on the ground or with a forward superjump (22A only for the latter), but otherwise they don't have much neutral use as they can be completely avoided by simply crouching. 22B is arguably useful as a feint; it looks identical to 22A so an opponent might approach/go for a punish thinking you'll be vulnerable for longer, but the quick recovery time of the B version will allow you to intercept.
Pressure
H-Warc's pressure game is very reliant on frametraps. She only has a few situational means of gaining plus frames (without spending meter), so in order to maintain pressure she has to be unpredictable with blockstring enders to keep the opponent guessing when it's safe for them to try and take their turn back. If you do have meter, 214C is the most consistent way to gain plus frames. However the frame advantage off of this isn't that much so typically you can only use it to dash back into range.
As holdable moves 5B and 5C can both be held briefly in order to enforce stagger pressure.
2A > 5A(w)6A will frametrap a crouching opponent and can also be done via spacing (this is similar in practice to C-Warc's 2A > 5A(w) > 2A frametrap).
5C/2C > 236B is a natural frametrap and is your go-to way of frametrapping at the end of a blockstring. 214A can be used to similar effect, with less combo conversionability but more coverage for opponents holding up.
If you're in range, 236B > (instant) 5C will also frametrap, meaning it's possible to alternate between 5C and 236B, with each one being a frametrap. Typically this is most useful when you're at point-blank range, like after an airthrow ender into the corner, as this allows you to loop it 2 or 3 times. Obviously this is vulnerable to being shielded, so just like everything else don't use it predictably.
Avoid using 214B in pressure, as any character can IAD over it and get a guaranteed punish.
The most important part of pressuring as H-Warc is to remain unpredictable. If you always go for the same frametrap your opponent will adapt and get easy shields. Mix up your options between 236A, reverse beat 5A, 236B, 214A, rebeat 5A > 236A, etc. to keep them guessing. If your opponent is patient and doesn't bite at all, that's when you start to mix in 5[B], 5[C], and throws.

Defense
Defense can be a struggle for H-Warc. As an H-moon she doesn't have access to EX-Shield, EX Guard, or Heat Activation. She has no meterless reversal, and her only true reversal, 236C, is usually punishable on hit and best avoided. That being said, while it may have obvious deficiencies her defense is far from hopeless.
5C is one of her best assets on defense. At 4 frames it's her fastest normal, and for how fast it is it has comparatively huge range. This makes 5C a fantastic abare option, although it's not without its weaknesses. First is that it's a holdable move, meaning it's easy to accidentally extend the startup by having the button pressed for longer than intended. Being a C normal it also has long recovery time on whiff. Finally, 5C has a tendency to whiff on crouching characters at further ranges. Practice doing instant 5C to avoid the first issue, and try to stay aware of spacing to avoid having this move whiff. You may find opponents intentionally going for blockstrings that push them further away in order to bait the move. Adjust by going for 236A instead (or just jump. If they're spacing themselves out to bait 5C their pressure naturally won't be as tight). When you're using this on defense you'll want to buffer something behind it. 5C > 236A is almost always the best for this, but 5C > 623A can be converted to a combo if you're willing to risk it (or if you have meter to cancel into 214C and keep yourself safe).
2B is relatively fast and has decent range. More importantly though; 2B is her sweep, meaning it will get you a hard knockdown and give you valuable time to do whatever you feel is necessary in the moment. Use it to escape the corner, go for an OTG, or set up your own offense.
236A can be a decent tool for defense in some matchups. Typically most useful against characters with longer normals, it also has uses when an opponent spaces themselves out more, as it will stuff attempts to dash back in range.
5B is a very situational option on defense. Rarely it can hit someone out of the air, but the main reason to use this is the forward movement. If the opponent went into the air, this will move you out of the corner. There's a good chance you'll still get hit for it, but you'll be out of the corner.
If you're willing to spend the meter, 624C can get you out of the corner almost guaranteed. 623C can also be used to similar but lesser effect, although the input may be more awkward to do out of block.
Finally, you can always try to run out of the corner. Warc's run is very low to the ground, even slipping under IADs. This is a surprisingly useful option on defense and it may be worth going for on occasion.
Disregarding matchup specifics, general concepts when on defense apply. Don't get impatient, keep an eye out for your opponent's habits, and look for opportunities to jump out; H-Warc's suite of powerful aerial options open up several more possibilities for her. Don't be afraid to shield bunker either if you have the meter for it. H-moon's bunker is very powerful so long as you're not using it predictably. Defense is an uphill battle for H-Warc, moreso than many other characters, but it's far from insurmountable.
Combos
Combo Notation Help | |
---|---|
Disclaimer: Combos are written by various writers, so the actual notation used in pages can differ from the standard one. | |
X > Y | X input is cancelled into Y. |
X > delay Y | Must wait for a short period before cancelling X input into Y. |
X, Y | X input is linked into Y, meaning Y is done after X's recovery period. |
X+Y | Buttons X and Y must be input simultaneously. |
X/Y | Either the X or Y input can be used. |
X~Y | This notation has two meanings.
|
X(w) | X input must not hit the opponent (Whiff). |
j.X | X input is done in the air, implies a jump/jump cancel if the previous move was done from the ground. Applies to all air chain sections:
|
sj.X | X input is done after a super jump. Notated as sj8.X and sj9.X for neutral and forward super jumps respectively. |
dj.X | X input is done after a double jump. |
sdj.X | X input is done after a double super jump. |
tk.X | Stands for Tiger Knee. X motion must be buffered before jumping, inputting the move as close to the ground as possible. (ex. tk.236A) |
(X) | X is optional. Typically the combo will be easier if omitted. |
[X] | Input X is held down. Also referred to as Blowback Edge (BE). Depending on the character, this can indicate that this button is held down and not released until indicated by the release notation. |
]X[ | Input X is released. Will only appear if a button is previously held down. This type of input is referred to as Negative Edge. |
{X} | Button X should only be held down briefly to get a partially charged version instead of the fully charged one. |
X(N) | Attack "X" should only hit N times. |
(XYZ)xN | XYZ string must be performed N times. Combos using this notation are usually referred to as loops. |
(XYZ^) | A pre-existing combo labelled XYZ is inserted here for shortening purposes. |
CH | The first attack must be a Counter Hit. |
Air CH | The first attack must be a Counter Hit on an airborne opponent. |
66 | Performs a ground forward dash. |
j.66 | Performs an aerial forward dash, used as a cancel for certain characters' air strings. |
IAD/IABD | Performs an Instant AirDash. |
AT | Performs an Air Throw. (j.6/4A+D) |
IH | Performs an Initiative Heat. |
AD | Performs an Arc Drive. |
AAD | Performs an Another Arc Drive. |
A lot of air strings can be free form in a real match. The ones that are listed should be optimal.
In a real match you might need to adjust your air strings depending on opponent's height(depends on your timing of things), and hurtboxes.
Mostly it's decision of when to omit certain j.A or if you can maybe do full j.B or if you can even airdash j.B(1).

Corner Combos
Aerial CH Hitconfirms
All 2-hit > 623A pickups require hitting the opponent very low to the ground, otherwise 623A will whiff under them. You can choose to do only one normal into 623A to make it a bit easier, or just do a basic jump-cancel combo instead; though you'll be missing out on a good amount of damage without 623A.Heavy Aerial CH Hitconfirms
"Heavy" counterhit refers to any counter that gives you enough time to do a followup with long startup. Most commonly j.C, 22A or any ring special (assuming only one hit in the case of 214B).OTG Combos

Light gray = Collision Box (A move lacking one means it can go through the opponent's own collision box). |
Damage | Base damage done by this attack.
(X) denotes combined and scaled damage tested against standing V. Sion. |
Red Damage | Damage done to the recoverable red health bar by this attack. The values are inherently scaled and tested against standing V. Sion.
(X) denotes combined damage. |
Proration | The correction value set by this attack and the way it modifies the scaling during a string. See this page for more details.
X% (O) means X% Overrides the previous correction value in a combo if X is of a lower percentage. |
Circuit | Meter gained by this attack on hit.
(X%) denotes combined meter gain. |
Cancel | Actions this move can be cancelled into.
SE = Self cancelable. |
Guard | The way this move must be blocked.
L = Can block crouching |
Startup | Amount of frames that must pass prior to reaching the active frames. Also referred to as "True Startup". |
Active | The amount of frames that this move will have a hitbox. (x) denotes frame gaps where there are no hitboxes is present. Due to varied blockstuns, (x) frames are difficult to use to determine punish windows. Generally the larger the numbers, the more time you have to punish. |
Recovery | Frames that this move has after the active frames if not canceled. The character goes into one frame where they can block but not act afterwards, which is not counted here. |
Advantage | The difference in frames where you can act before your opponent when this move is blocked (assuming the move isn't canceled and the first active frame is blocked). If the opponent uses a move with startup that is at least 2 frames less than this move's negative advantage, it will result in the opponent hitting that move. |
Invul | Lists any defensive properties this move has.
X y~z denotes X property happening between the y to z frames of the animations. If no frames are noted, it means the invincibility lasts through the entire move. Invicibility:
