Profile

It is well known among the creatures of Foenum that when a goat sets her eye on something, it’s only a matter of time before she gets it.

Shanty, named after a song with no title, was taken in by notorious pirate captain Bravura after being orphaned at a very young age. She studied the ways of salt and sail, instilled with the belief that the only ones who make it in life are those brave enough to fight to the last.

For Shanty to earn a place as a true member of her pirate crew, she has to prove her worth. And it isn’t enough to meet the bar, Shanty aims to blow it out of the water. That means stealing the most valuable treasure in the world: which just so happens to be the Prophet’s Key! Only one who’s worthy? It’s gonna be Shanty!

Gameplan

Shanty is highly agile, with a couple of methods for getting behind, under, or over her opponents. Some of her abilities are projectile invulnerable too (4/6C, 236C), allowing her to get through zoning attempts.

Being a stance character, magic stocks are important to have to keep all of her movement and attack options open. Shanty has 6 magic stocks, but they regenerate quite slow, so it is critical to use Parley (22A) when one has the chance.

Movement Options

Jump: Shanty can perform both regular jumps and shorthops.

Forward and Backdash: Shanty can dash both forwards and backwards, like any other character.

Run: Shanty can run forward or backward, but only after entering her run stance (1 magic).

Wall-Cling: Ability unique to Shanty. Activated with 22B or 22C, and requires 2 magic. Press D while in wall-cling to leap to the other side (1 magic), or press any direction away from the wall to jump off.

Like Paprika's airthrow, followups depend on your height. From a high connect, falling with j.B seems most consistent. If closer to the ground, landing and using 5A or 5B works.

Magic

Shanty's magic slowly builds over time, and she can obtain more with Parley, to a maximum of 6 stocks. She can spend it to enter her Wall Cling and Run stances, and use certain options within the stances.

Shanty can manually exit the stance by holding down or pressing D again, which, when done as fast as possible, makes the stance last 20f at minimum. Shanty can run forwards and backwards, which drains magic, and she cannot block.

Magic drains continuously on the wall, Shanty automatically enters Helm if magic runs out. Cannot block in Wallcling. Pressing C while in wallcling will cause Shanty to enter "Helm".

Meterless

5A > 5B > 5C > 3C > jump cancel j.A > j.B > j.C > land > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 857

 Typical BnB, well rounded with a good knockdown, oki, and carry.

5A > 5B > 5C > 2C > 3C > jump cancel > j.B > j.A > j.B > land > dash > 5B > 5C > 2C > 236A

 DMG - 952

 Basic meterless BNB. Strong corner carry and good oki. Can cancel the final 2C into 22A for magic build at the cost of worse oki and corner carry.

5A > 5B > 5C > 2C > 3C > jump cancel > j.B > j.A > j.B > land > dash > 5B > 5C > 2C > 236B

 DMG - 963

 Depending how high the, 5B > 5C > 2C, string lands. You can add 236B for an extra 11 points of damage.

5A > 5B > 5C > 2C > 3C > jump cancel > j.B > j.A > j.B > land > dash > 5B > 5C > 2C > 22A (AY!)

 DMG - 861

 The Parley won't connect but you will build one magic bar from it. You sacrifice extra damage, oki, and corner carry with this route.

5A > 5B > 5C > 3C > jump cancel > j.A > j.B > j.C > land > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236B

 DMG - 894

 This will side switch and put Shanty right on her opponent for some really strong oki. With magic, this gets more potent.

5A > 5B > 5C > 3C > jump cancel > j.B > j.A > j.B > land > (hop) j.A > j.B > land > (hop) j.A > j.B > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 902

 Double rejump combo, good route for some extra corner carry.
 

5A > 5B > 5C > 3C > jump cancel > j.A > j.B > j.C > land > 6C > 22A (YARRR!!!)

 DMG - 775

 A good way to get three bars of magic, this route does sacrifice some damage for it. Taking stagger of 6C, the recovery of 6C, and the charge timing of 22A, this winds up being a 6 frame link.

6A > 5B > 5C > 236B > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1115

 With Shanty's back to the corner, this side switch quickly and place Shanty right on the opponent. One of her strongest meterless routes.

6A > 5B > 5C > 236B > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236B

 DMG - 1142

 Adding 236B at the end for an extra 27 points of damage. Will side switch again and leave Shanty in corner if used as stated before.

236C > 6A > 236B > (6A) 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1290

 236C is a good way to get in if Shanty's being kept out. It has projectile invincibility throughout it.

236C > 6A > 236B > (6A) 5A > 5B > 5C > 236B

 DMG - 1323

 This will soon be a trend on Shanty that 236A can be substituted for 236B if her juggle is high.

-

Now meterless combos get a little more advanced, you can TK her 3C into 236B with a, 2369B input.

3C > 2369B > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1208

 Nice damage if there's consistency in the, 3C > 2369B.

3C > 2369B > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236B

 DMG - 1249

 Adding a 236B for an extra 41 points of damage.

3C > 2369B > 6A > 236B > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1373

 This is just nice to look at. Great route to punish a blocked launcher.

3C > 2369B > 6A > 236B > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236B

 DMG - 1400

 Adding a 236B for an extra 27 points of damage

-

Now, this route is strong, but it is pretty tricky to input.

3C > 2369B > 6A > 236B > 6A > 236B

 DMG - 1324

 Amazing damage, 6A has a tall vertical hitbox, and the opponent is falling vertically. The first 6A must connect high and be cancelled into 236B. Timing is crucial.

3C > 2369B > 6A > 236B > 6A > 236B > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1543

 This combo is a pretty tight one. The first 6A > 236B has to have near perfect height. The second one most also capitalize on the height of it. Then the 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A will combo naturally.

5C > 2C > 3C > 2369B > 5C > 2C > 3C > 2369B > 5C > 2C > 3C > jump cancel > j.B > j.C > 5C > 2C > 3C > 2369A

 DMG - 1998

 Basic, but EXTREMELY tight.  Timing needs to be near perfect for the 2nd and 3rd TK.

Metered

Now at this point, using your magic bar is as simple as adding, D > A, until you're content and ending in D > B. For example,

[6 Magic Bars + 3 Super Bars]

5A > 5B > 5C > 3C > jump cancel j.A > j.B > j.C > land > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A > 5D > 5A (x5) > 5D > 5B > 236AB > 214AB > 236C > 5D > 5B > 236AB

 DMG - 1835

 You can really truly add any amount of magic stance moves on the end of a lot of combos for a little extra damage. Or really strong extensions if you haven't used your groundbounce, with her D > C. Not to mention just adding a super on the end of any combo after a 236A.

[1 Magic Bar]

5A > 5B > 5C > 3C > jump cancel > j.A > j.B > j.C > land > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236B > 5D > 5D > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1059

 Shanty enter the stance off 236B then cancels it with another D press.

[1 Magic Bar]

236C > 5D > 5B

 DMG - 904

 Great anti-projectile combo. 

[1 Magic Bar + 1 Super Bar]

236C > 5D > 5B > 236AB

 DMG - 1534

 Adding a super onto the prior combo for a lot of damage.

5A > 5B > 5C > 236B > 5D > 8 > any attack button > hop > j.A > j.B > land > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 972

 Good route that will greatly improve with even one extra bar of magic.

[1 Magic Bar]

5A > 5B > 5C > 236A > 5D > 5C > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A

 DMG - 1030

 If ground bounce hasn't been used in the a combo yet, opting for, 236A > 5D > 5C > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A, is always a good choice.
                                    

[2 Magic Bars]

 DMG - 1550

 Such a nice combo to look at, it just flows so nicely. Other than visuals, using the, 5A > 5B > 5C, starter will cause this to drop.

 Super!

Avast!

Her level 2, Avast! gives her 3 bars of magic and staggers for another hit. Typically at the end of combos, you've used up your, ground bounce, wall bounce, and all your juggle points, so your best ender is,

... 236C > 5D > 5B

DMG - 904 [UNSCALED]

... 236C > 5D > 5B > 236AB

DMG - 1534 [UNSCALED]

Here's an example of the enders.

[3 Magic Bars + 2 Super Bar]

2B > 5C > 236B > 5D > 8 > any attack button > hop > j.A > j.B > land > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236A > 5D > 5C > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A > 236AB > 214AB > 236C > 5D > 5B

 DMG - 2100

 Pretty basic Avast! combo. Or as I like to call it, Yagi Jin.
                                    

[3 Magic Bars + 3 Super Bar]

2B > 5C > 236B > 5D > 8 > any attack button > hop > j.A > j.B > land > 6A > 5B > 5C > 236A > 5D > 5C > 5A > 5B > 5C > 236A > 236AB > 214AB > 236C > 5D > 5B > 236AB

 DMG - 2369

 Strongest Avast combo I've found so far.

Techniques

Shanty has a few empty cancels that are nice,

4C xx 236AB

 The only use I found for this was being able to avoid throws in corner and reversal it, but there are stronger options. A prime use, is to step back with the momentum of the 4C, then fly forward with the super.

236C xx 236AB

This is kinda neat, inputting 236C and when Shanty is inside the opponent, input 236AB the same way you did the 236C, Shanty will pass through and the super will be perfectly spaced behind them. Great for anti-Parley or fireballs.
