Strategy
- Goals
- Play defensively, patiently and use your bubbles and huge normals to control space and keep your opponent away until reaching ravenous.
- In ravenous, rush your opponent down and use your huge disjointed buttons like 2MP and jMP to force them to block and mix them from a distance, and use Slurp to hitconfirm and continue your pressure.
- Offense
- At close range, mix your opponents using moves like 2LK, 5HK and jMP in ravenous. Use Slurp after getting pushblocked to continue your pressure (be mindful of PBGC) or Tongue Twister to catch your opponent after it.
- At midrange, you can use ravenous 2MP and Tongue Twister to keep your opponent guessing, and even 5HK opens people up due to its extreme range.
- Neutral
- Use L Bubble and M Bubble to stuff air approaches. M Bubble will win you almost every trade. H Bubble stops ground approaches and is specially useful against characters with armor or extended hurtboxes.
- Burn as much hunger as possible doing things like M Bobble 5LP and other bubbles until you reach ravenous.
- Use 2MP and Tongue Twister to catch your opponent off guard.
- Staying safe until reaching ravenous and then approaching your opponent can be hard, and your plan varies a lot depending on the matchup and assists you have.
- Defense
- Your only reliable reversal is Contact Lens, don't use Hungern Rush unless you're 110% sure it's going to hit.
- Utilize Umbrella's ridiculous mash options such as ravenous 2LP, 2LK and 2MK to dodge your opponent's hurtboxes and stuff their attacks. These options all carry risks, but the reward is massive.
- Hunger Management
- Ideally, unless you're hitting your opponent you will always be in ravenous. Entering Stuffed or Starving can be a death sentence, so do your best to never get there outside of a combo.
- You can enter Stuffed to guarantee a kill as long as you don't have to worry about the next character stopping you from going back to ravenous.
- Don't fully chomp Salt Grinder or Tongue Twister unless you can guarantee a kill.

Counterplay
How to beat this character
- Don't give her space; rush her down, poke her constantly, make getting to ravenous impossible.
- Mash on her pressure! While she is plus, it's still very much an RPS situation. At most ranges, 2MP SnS isn't even a true blockstring and you can call her out on it. PBGCing is extremely encouraged.
- Reset her in the air. She has 0 air options and is at your complete mercy in the air.
