Gameplay

Ushiwakamaru (often referred to as Ushi) is a new character to Melty Blood, released as free DLC alongside The Count of Monte Cristo on December 15, 2022. Ushi is described as a speedy fighter who races freely across the field to take opponents by surprise, and she lives up to that description: moves such as her j.2A+B fastfall, Shukuchi (22X), or Shukuchi - Heavenly Steps (j.236X) give her tricky repositioning strategies, while Advance (236A) and both the charged and uncharged versions of Shin Swipe (236B) let her move in and go for pressure or advancing high-low mix, and other advancing moves like Utsumidori - Heavenly Blade Steps (214B) give her a strong punish option to catch careless buttons and continue her offense afterward.

However, this comes with the primary drawback of having a very low health value, exploitable gaps in her best neutral and pressure tools, and weaker rebeat pressure, requiring Ushi to risk a lot when it comes to committing to a plan of attack; adept opponents will take advantage of any mistakes with brutal punishment if they know what holes to look for.

Pick if you like

Avoid if you dislike

Good mixup potential: Ushi's entire kit is designed around her mixup, with fastfall fakeouts, mid-string mixups and even a stable left right straight off airthrow. Strong Pressure Extensions: Ushi has multiple ways to threaten meterless resets in her kit, between 236Adl.A, 22X and the myriad grounded jump cancellable specials she has. Good Punish Game: Ushi has many tools that she can use to punish opponents for being careless, such an advancing low lariat in 236B, and a very difficult to contest 4BC. She also possesses the only air arc drive in the game, which is both fullscreen and one of the only truly invincble air moves in the game, allowing her to contest certain things from the air that no other character could.

Bad Defense: Ushi's 11,000 health is the second lowest health pool in the game along with having a 6F 2A, no 7 framer and no DP, which gives her way less room for error than a majority of the game's cast. High Commitment: Most of Ushi's good neutral and pressure tools carry huge risk in terms of unfavourable frame data and large contestable gaps, which isn't helped in the least by her best pokes extending her hurtbox considerably BEFORE the attack box is out, making poking with even her best tools a nightmare. Bad Rebeat Pressure: While Ushi does have pressure resets, her normal strings beyond 2A carry with them bad frame data and horrible pushback, and make it very difficult to actually threaten throw. This means that she's constantly having to rely on her pressure reset options, which aren't nearly good enough to compensate.

Story & Profile

Charismatic and with flawless beauty, Ushiwakamaru runs free in the city of the future

The youthful form of the swordsman who later stunned the world as Minamoto no Yoshitsune.
Her Servant Class is Rider.

Training to become a samurai at a young age, she met the onmyoji Kiichi Hougen and was granted the arts of war. With the arts of war added to her natural physical abilities and skill with the blade, she grew into a peerless wrrior.
However, this caused her elder brother, Minamoto no Yorimoto, to distrust her and her life came to a tragic end alongside her retainer Benkei.

In battle, Ushiwakamaru dashes about with few restrictions, making dazzling use of her versailitiy. However, in some situations she is prone to saying "It all ends if the enemy general falls." forcing her master and mash to dash after her.

Once she was summoned as a Heroic Spirit, the focus of her interest has been in the Japan of the 21st century, instead of Chaldea. And then, before her stood a tiny, half-human, half-cat, creature with mysterious origins... It is the opening of a new chapter of The Wandering Tale of Shana-oh.

Special Moves

Advance/Shin Swipe

A forward-advancing gap closer with several variations. The A version, Advance, has several followups after it, while the B version, Shin Swipe, can be used to go for either a high or a low depending on how it is used. The C version of Advance is based on 236A and allows air combos afterward.

Ushi dashes forward for a while, and stops if she doesn't reach the opponent. The canned followup to this move, Rising Somersault, only activates when the opponent is close to you during the dash--you have to make contact with Rising Somersault to use 236A followups.

Shukuchi. Ushi summons two afterimages--one directly in front of the opponent, one behind them--and then fastfalls from the one behind the opponent, forcing a sideswitch. Doing this followup as 4B instead will make Ushi fastfall from the afterimage in front of the opponent, retaining the side she's on. In the corner, this works a little differently--corner 5B input technically is the same as midscreen 5B input, but Ushi will only briefly be in the corner behind the opponent before her teleport forces her to land in front of them instead. This behavior can cause certain inputs to get reversed for the opponent and can let you mess up the opponent's 3C or reversal inputs. Corner 4B input will put her a bit farther back from the opponent, but will not cause her to switch sides.

Shin Swipe. Ushi dashes forward like she does for 236A, but stops the run with a low kick and a slash. Launches the opponent for combos, but needs a 5A or 2A to pick up if you're looking to go for a launch combo with Rapid Beat or 3C, as other moves will OTG and prevent it.

Tengu's Strategy / Usumidori - Heavenly Blade Steps

A set of sword-drawing moves. The A version can be used mid-combo to go for a low crush or a punish, especially on strings that have pushed the opponent out a bit, while the B version is best used as a whiff punish or an occasional spacing check and the C version can close out combos and catch whiffed buttons in addition to adjusting Ushi's positioning.

Usumidori - Heavenly Blade Steps. Ushi dashes forward and passes through the opponent with a slash. Safe enough on block to allow Ushi to block 5-frame normals, but can be spaced even more to actually get some plus frames out of it; you'll want to try hitting with the tip if this is what you're going for.

• Will cross through the opponent if done close enough.
• Crumples the opponent on ground hit.

Ushi appears to take her 214A stance but immediately goes into Usumidori. Unlike the 214A~B version, this is not safe when used up close, but is safe against 5f normals when spaced correctly. It can be used as a spacing check in this way, but is easier utilized when an opponent whiffs a button with long enough recovery to get caught. The safe spacing is similar to 214A~B's but will not result in plus frames.

• Will cross through the opponent on block if done close enough.

A farther-moving version of 214B. On hit, it's followed up with another series of slashes, followed by a final one that puts Ushi on the side opposite where she started. If blocked, it's similar to 214B but actually has enough blockstun to let you block 5f moves without having to space it correctly. 214C is Ushi's main combo ender EX Edge as it sets up a consistent left/right mixup.

• Jump cancelable on contact or whiff.

Ushi dashes forward and through the opponent with a jump, slashing multiple times behind her. It must be spaced correctly to be safe, much like 214B, but there are other options after it's blocked since it's also jump-cancelable.

• Hits on both sides and is plus on block, allowing her to start offense from directly above.
• Bounces on hit, allowing a combo if it is used as a starter, conversion from non-counterhit air strings, or linking into a low airthrow or 214C after a long combo.

A diving slash, similar to her 236A~C followup. However, it doesn't have invul like 236A~C does.

• Usable in the air.
• Invulnerable. One of the very few fully invincible air moves in the game.
• Air blockable.

Ushi jumps to the back wall, then does a diving slash at the opponent. On hit, she goes into a series of slashes, ending with a final one that knocks the opponent to the ground. Absurdly huge range since Ushi's diveslash will track the opponent's position and move her near them before she dives, making it an amazing, if expensive, punish.
