Gameplay
Dead Apostle Noel (DA-Noel or DAN for short) is a high-mobility projectile zoner/trap setplay character.
Available as a free DLC alongside Aoko since 13 Jan 2022, this "corrupted" version of Noel cranks her mix-up and okizeme game to eleven. Central to her gameplay are her projectile "bells" with an option to either follow-up with more bells, delay the launch or dashing in. Combined with that are the bells that can be remotely detonated for okizeme, area-denial or combo extension. Her movement is also great, with a ridiculously far airdash and various movement options from her special attacks, letting her weave in and out of opponent's reach and land punish out of almost any stray hits.
She trades all that with middling mid-range normals (her main poke being 5C, which only covers a low angle), forcing DA-Noel to commit fully in mid-screen neutral with her special attacks, an act that can get her blown up if she guesses her opponent's reaction wrong. She can be terrifying in the right hands, but one must have caution when dealing with a devil.

A lovely girl who hides her daytime self in the darkness
A butterfly in a rose garden who hunts her prey like a wolf in the night
A certain executor who has become a dead apostle.
She appears as a girl at her most lovely, who has acquired skills that surpass a normal human's as a dead apostle, giving her the Mystic Eyes of Roses.
She is able to forcefully remove the soul of her target and lock them away in her Mystic Eyes, where they experience an unending nightmare.
Not only that, but she is also able to manipulate a large number of spears (bells) in a battle style evocative of a dancing butterfly.
But what did she want so desperately to accomplish that she was willing to become a vampire? The sight of her as she laments her weakness, seeks strength, and enthusiastically drowns herself in the power she gains is somewhat melancholic...
Main Weapon/Skill
Mystic Eyes of Roses, spears, pike

Move Analysis
Normal Moves
Standing Normals
5A
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
180 | LH | -SE-, -N-, -SP-, -CH-, -EX-, -MD-, (J) | - | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
5 | 2 | 12 | 18 | -2 | - |
Dead Apostle Noel does a short range stab with her bell.
- Has stubby range but is effective for tick throws, staggers, and rebeat pressure.
- Her fastest button at 5 frames.
- Can potentially catch low-to-ground air approach such as IADs, but don't hold your breath shorty.
- Holding will allow you to chain the move into itself up to 2 times.
- If you have Rapid Beat set to Off or A+B, you can simply press the button up to 3 times.
- The preferred normal for rebeats, with rebeats from & normals being -3 and -1 respectively.
- Like all normals, can be whiff cancelled from frame 10 and onwards.
5B
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
480 | LH | N, RB, SP, MS, EX, (J) | - | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
7 | 3 | 19 | 28 | -7 | - |
Dead Apostle Noel swings her bell upwards.
- Its great vertical range and decent recovery makes it a solid anti-air.
- Besides an anti-air, primarily serves as combo filler.
- Its lacking horizontal coverage can make it whiff in certain pressure strings, but it's not without its uses in pressure.
- Up close in pressure, can keep the opponent slightly closer if used in place of 2B.
- If frametrapped, can be used to break low shield by putting the opponent in a forced block state.
5C
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
610 | LH | N, RB, SP, MS, EX, (J) | - | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
11 | 4 | 22 | 36 | -9 | - |
Dead Apostle Noel thrusts her bell forward.
- Primarily a blockstring tool.
- Advances slightly, but on block pushes you back farther than you advanced.
- Pushes the opponent back on midscreen hit, but in the corner, due to the conversation of energy, you get pushed back on hit. Perplexing...
- Hitbox is incredibly low to the ground, so low it gets beaten by IADs.
- High recovery makes you incredibly vulnerable on whiff.
- Can be partially charged to frametrap and to call out jumps (this part is important).
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
610, 480 (1032) | LH | N, RB, SP, MS, EX, (J) | V (Second Hit) | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
22 | 2 (10) 4 | 17 | 54 | -4 | Clash 16-21 |
Charged version of 5C, gains clash frames as charged normals do.
- Valuable combo and pressure tool.
- Only -4 on block. Make of that what you will.
- The second hit has a vacuum effect but can potentially whiff at max range.
- Deceptively large horizontal range, can hit from incredibly far.
- Can be a decent callout against certain ground approaches and low shield.
- Can be jumped out of on pressure, so predictable use can end up getting either punished or escaped for free.
Crouching Normals
2A
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
140 | L | -SE-, -N-, RB, -SP-, -EX-, -MD-, (J) | - | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
6 | 2 | 11 | 18 | -1 | - |
Dead Apostle Noel thrusts her bell downward.
- Good for tick throws, staggers, and starting pressure.
- Slower than 5A by 1 frame (6 frames total).
- Hitbox is slightly further out than 5A, but only by a tad.
- Chains into itself 2 times before going into Rapid Beat
- If you have Rapid Beat set to A+B, you can start Rapid Beat from any point.
- Not as good for rebeats, with rebeats from & normals being -4 and -2 respectively.
- Like all normals, can be whiff cancelled from frame 10 and onwards.
2B
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
420 | L | N, RB, SP, MS, EX, MD, (J) | - | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
8 | 4 | 20 | 31 | -9 | - |
Dead Apostle Noel gets in prime breakdancing position and slashes her bell forward.
- Generally a fantastic midrange button with its decent recovery and proration.
- As of version 1.4.3, hits low.
- Advances forward slightly but, like her buttons, this advancement is mitigated on block by large pushback.
- Can be used to call out ground approach with its fast startup and good horizontal range.
- This makes it surprisingly solid on defense, can potentially stuff run-up options on an opponent's pressure reset.
- When timed right, its decent vertical range can also beat low IADs.
2C
Damage | Guard | Cancel | Property | Cost | Attribute |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
620 | L | N, RB, SP, MS, EX, MD, (J) | L | - | Strike |
First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
11 | 4 | 22 | 36 | -9 | - |
Dead Apostle Noel performs a giant sweep with her bell.
- Long startup and recovery makes it primarily a combo and pressure tool.
- Your main launcher in combos, usually seen with 5[C] in a majority of her combos.
- Incredibly large hitbox, covering a fair chunk of the screen.
- Like its standing counterpart, has a large amount of pushback on block.
- Also pushes back on whiff, funnily enough.
- Also like its standing counterpart, hits incredibly low to the ground (but that's probably expected)
Jumping Normals

First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
6 | 4 | 11 | 20 | - | - |
Dead Apostle Noel slaps her hand out.
- Primarily an air-to-air tool with with solid horizontal range and disjoint
- One frame slower than the average j.A but this isn't as bad as it sounds.
- Holding will allow you to chain the move into itself up to 2 times.
- If you have Rapid Beat set to Off or A+B, you can simply press the button up to 3 times.
- Like all normals, can be whiff cancelled from frame 20 and onwards.
- Preserves all unused air options, including other air normals, specials, and movement options.
j.B

---|---|---|---|---|---|

First Active | Active | Recovery | Overall | Advantage | Invul |
10 | 4 | - | - | - | - |
Dead Apostle Noel swings her bell upward.
- This is a great button all around. They keep buffing it, too!
- Generally used for jump-ins due to its great horizontal range and proration.
- Its range can also make it a decent preemptive air-to-air button.
- Has a hitbox behind her, allowing it to hit crossup.
- Do note that it only hits behind later in the animation, though it doesn't matter all that much.
- The move you'll typically be using for mix off air throw.

20 | 4 | - | - | - | Clash 16-19 |
Dead Apostle Noel thrusts her bell downward.
- Uncharged version is a standard IAD button.
- No reason to not use over j.B in IAD pressure, similar startup times and the reward is slightly better.
- In IAD pressure, can choose to be cancelled into j.A or jump for extra mixup potential.
- Its thin horizontal hitbox makes it a very situational jump-in option compared to j.B.
- However, still has its uses for hitting more stationary opponents from higher up.
- No reason to not use over j.B in IAD pressure, similar startup times and the reward is slightly better.
- Charged version hits harder but is mostly the same.
- Gains clash frames and a solid disjoint at the cost of being mildly slower.
- Can be used to bait throw tech attempts and punish low shields rewardingly with its deeper hitbox.
- Ground bounces on hit, allowing for high-damage conversions when used as a starter.
- Stable combo tool because of this. Seen in several of her basic routes.
- Remains a weaker jump-in due to still having a thin hitbox and extra frames of landing recovery.

Dead Apostle Noel hops backward before firing a bell in a straight line.
- Travels somewhat slowly across the whole screen.
- Has more startup than 236X but less recovery, which can make it a safer option in neutral.
- Unlike 236X, it is a normal, so it cannot be EX or MD cancelled but can be cancelled on hit or block.
- Charged version has its own set of uses, but still serves the same main function.
- Travels faster at the cost of a slower startup
- Flings the opponent way farther back, but gains wallbounce properties, making it a combo tool in the corner.
- As of 1.4.3, has clash frames.

Dead Apostle Noel kicks upward.
- Situational anti-air
- Invulnerable to air attacks starting from frame 5
- Rapid Beat version has considerable forward movement
- Stubbier 3C than average as it has small horizontal and vertical range

Dead Apostle Noel stomps the opponent to the ground before jumping backward.

Dead Apostle Noel summons a set of bells and fires them forward
- Pushes her back a fair bit
- A tad slower than other projectiles
- A version fires downward at a 15 degree angle
- Just shy of hitting fullscreen, can be TK'd to do so, however
- B version fires in a straight line, more akin to a standard fireball

Follow-up to 236X. Dead Apostle Noel travels forward with a hitbox.
- Fundamental combo tool as it keeps you close to the opponent
- Depending on the distance and timing of the follow-up, it can cross up.
- Very unsafe on block, but with EX or Moon Drive it becomes an invaluable blockstring tool to maintain and reset pressure

Dead Apostle Noel stakes the bell she's holding into the ground does some acrobatics on it.
- A version doesn't have invul, like most DPs
- Jump cancellable on hit, making it a valuable combo tool
- Can be MD/EX cancelled on block to make reckless usage safe
- Can be used as a committal option to preemptively call out air approach for solid damage, but she has better anti-airs
- B version is an invincible reversal, a standard DP
- Easily beaten by Anti-Heat OS due to its slow speed
- Has very good horizontal range. Hits backwards, as well
- Does not have any confirms without Moon Drive besides EX cancel into j.236C or j.214C which cause hard knockdown
- Has specific routes off Moon Drive for standard 214C oki setup but scales heavily

Moon Skill variation of her DP. Same animation as A and B version.
- Jump cancellable on block, whiff, and hit, making it safe to just kinda use
- Air blockable, unlike her other DPs
- In Moon Drive, its clash frames make it a very strong reversal
- Can serve the same purpose in combos as her A DP, which is already jump cancellable, but with more meter build

Dead Apostle Noel jumps backwards as two bells fall from the sky and embed in the ground.
- Your setplay move. Used to claim valuable screen space and keep your opponent's movement in check
- Its initial hitbox will only connect on airborne opponents, while the second hits very low to the ground as the bells land
- Doesn't do anything on its own once set, but interacts with her 22X series
- A version summons bells closer to her and come out relatively quick
- Can be used to variable success in pressure as it is plus on block
- Can catch mashing/frametrap. Off 5C/2C, there is only a 5 frame gap
- B version summons bells farther from her and come out later than the A version
- Has a massive deadzone right in front of her, so reckless usage can be punished with ease
- Its use in pressure is minimal compared to 214A due to how far the bells land
- If spaced properly, it is completely unpunishable by shield

EX version drops 3 bells in-between A and B version.
- Your primary combo ender as it sets up your main okizeme
- Can be gapless if you connect with the farthest bell in a blockstring
- Otherwise, unsafe use in blockstrings can be punished on reaction

25 | X | - | 48 | +9 | Clash 1-11 (MD) |
Moon Skill version of 214X. Dead Apostle Noel leaps back farther than 214A/B and the set bells hit the ground at the same time.
- Overhead. It's really funny when you use it against people who don't know that it's an overhead and they low block every time and get hit
- Bells are positioned similarly to 214A
- Use with caution, as it can be shielded on reaction by keen opponents and can guarantee a Shield BC Counter punish at anything other than max range.

Charged version of 22X. Does more damage.
- Delays detonation and makes the hitboxes bigger
- The effect is the same for the A and B version
- On 214C oki, 22[B] does not hit meaty, which allows you to go for options like grab easier but it doesn't hit meaty

- Whiffs on crouchers
- Detonates from farthest to closest
- The chain of detonations are gapless, unlike 22A and 22B
- Air blockable, but rather plus on air hit

j.236X functions almost identically to 236X but in the air. Because of this, it ends up being far more situational as your recovery is tied to landing, which opens you up to a lot of punishes.
- A version fires at a downward angle
- TK will hit fullscreen
- B version fires in a straight line
- Whiffs on crouchers and runners
- Even in the air, it still can be shielded rather easily

Follow-up to j.236X. Dead Apostle Noel travels forward with a hitbox.
- Fundamental combo tool for the same reasons as 236X~X as well as being jump cancellable on hit
- Decently unsafe on block, but with EX or Moon Drive it can be made safe

Dead Apostle Noel changes her air trajectory before throwing bells down at a very steep angle.
- Very important combo tool. tk.214X is a key component in her combos
- A version has her jump higher up and angle her bells at an incredibly steep slope
- Angle is slightly awkward to connect, but is used in some combos due to hitstun scaling
- B version has her jump backwards and angle her bells at a less steep slope

Dead Apostle Noel causes a bunch of bells to fall from the sky, landing in front of her. If the move hits it goes into a cinematic where she summons more bells that rain down on the opponent.
- If the move is blocked, shielded, or whiffs, a set of bells will rain on the opponent tracking their position after a brief pause. This happens 3 times and getting hit by any of the 3 sets will not cause the cinematic to play.
- Remaining bells from a non-hitting Arc Drive will cease to come out if she is hit anytime after.
- High damage combo ender when you have 3 bars. The whiff effect is a good way of getting in or punishing shield follow-ups as the sets still appear if the opponent shields the Arc Drive.

Dead Apostle Noel uses her Mystic Eyes of Roses to trap the opponent in a never-ending nightmare. Gosh darn!
- Usable by hitting ABCD with 4 Bars or by successfully shielding a move in Blood Heat
- Damage in Blood Heat scales with how much remaining meter is left
- Average length Last Arc, about 10 seconds long
- The location you end up after the animation is relative to where you triggered the Last Arc, but will always put you closer to center at neutral spacing
- Because it uses the 5B animation, it can be used as a (very slow and impractical) anti-air
