Idol Showdown/Korone Inugami

Retro Fighting Dog - High Endurance Brawling

Introduction

Korone is a simple, but powerful all-rounder with an aggressive playstyle. This brawler doggo is not afraid to get up close with her strong approach tools. While Korone's tools are straightforward, they are more than enough to make the opponent second-guess picking a fight with her.

Playstyle

Korone Inugami is an aggressive "shoto" rushdown character with high forward movement.

Pick if you like	Avoid if you dislike
High forward movement through her DOOG (214X) and metered command dash	Limited ranged game

Normal Moves

Standing Normals

5L

5L	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 30 Mid 5 3 13 -1 +2 None Her fastest normal, good for abare. Otherwise used for combo filler/hitconfirms.

5M

5M Sol f.S says hi Sol f.S says hi	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 60 Mid 7 4 19 -2 (+1) - None Korone's main spacing tool and combo starter. A far reaching disjointed move that's decently fast and oppressive enough to be able to stagger into itself. The very tip of the move is plus.

5H

5H	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 80 Mid 11 3 24 -3 +5 None

Crouching Normals

2L

2L	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 25 Low, Air Unblockable 6 2 - -7 +0 None Korone's fastest low hitting normal, with not much range and slightly slower speed make it a pretty average normal. Although, once paired with your conditioning of j.L overhead mix, this button creates a dangerous 50/50.

2M

2M Oddly, this is Korone's only grounded normal that's always plus. Oddly, this is Korone's only grounded normal that's always plus.	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 65 Mid 9 3 - +2 +3 None A slow and stubby poke.

2H

2H

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 90 Mid, Air Unblockable 12 4 - -10 -2 None 2H is a fantastic antiair and combo piece for korone, it's consistency and vertical coverage makes it the go to choice for challenging jump ins and relaunching opponents in a juggle Korone's 2H will automatically place the opponent directly in front of her at an elevation, even when antiairing disjointed hurtboxes, you'll need to adjust your launch combo timing according to this or it may drop chaining 2H after a magic series (LMH) will whiff midscreen, so only do this in the corner (drop the H from your string to combo into 2H midscreen)

3H

3H	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 95 Low, Air Unblockable 11 3 - -17 +40 None Korone's sweep. Her only way of securing a hard knockdown. This move's hurtbox low profiles many character's normals and projectiles allowing Korone to punish options that otherwise would have been safe.

Jumping Normals

j.L

j.L	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 30 High 6 7 - - - None Korone's fastest air normal. The disjointed hitbox extends further than her knee suggests. Capable of doing instant overheads. You may follow up with j.214X, but this only combos on Coco, otherwise you will have 0 frame advantage if the opponent continues to block low.

j.M

j.M	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 60 High 8 6 - - - None Korone's longest reaching air normal. The hitbox extends a bit behind her allowing for cross-ups.

j.H

j.H	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 90 High 10 4 - - - None Hitting an airborne opponent will spike them down into a soft knockdown

You can only use 3 of each DP strength in a combo before the infinite prevention system (IPS) takes into place.

22S

Doggy Dash 22S	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability 0 - - - - - - None A low-traveling command dash. It allows Korone to continue her pressure when the opponent is being overly defensive. The move has no invulnerability, so a mashing opponent will lead Korone to be punished. Uses 1 Star Meter Korone's Idol Skill, increasing her Superchat meter when used.

j.214X

DOOG From Above j.214L/M/H File:IS Korone j.214H.png	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability - All - - - - - None Propels Korone with a swinging active chainsaw hitbox. This be used to catch opponents mashing in neutral, though it's unsafe when used high in the air.

Super Star Attack

X-Potato 236S File:IS Korone 236S.png

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Adv. on Block Adv. on Hit Invulnerability - All - - - - - None A quick charging attack that leads into a damaging X-Potato barrage. If the initial attack whiffs or hits an airborne opponent, Korone transitions into a rising uppercut attack instead. Its invincible startup makes it good for getting Korone out of a tough situation, but it is massively unsafe on block or whiff.

Combos

Combo Notation Help
Disclaimer: Combos are written by different authors, so the notation used can vary from the standard one. For additional information on terminology for Idol Showdown or fighting games in general, please consult the Idol Showdown Glossary or the Fighting Game Glossary.
#X	Input writted with numpad notation for the direction/motion input followed by the action.
X > Y	X input is cancelled into Y.
X, Y	X input is linked to Y, meaning Y is done after X's recovery frames.
X~Y	This notation has two meanings: 1. Use attack X with followup Y. 2. Input X, and then within a few frames, input Y. Sometimes referred to as "kara cancelling".
[X]	Input X is held down.
{X}	Input is partially charged (as in, not tapped but not held to full charge either).
(X)	Input X is optional. Typically, the combo will be easier without this input.
X/Y	Choose between input X or input Y.
#jc	Jump cancel. The number (7, 8, or 9) indicates which direction the jump cancel should be input if it is important to the combo.
j.X	Jumping input X. X should be input while airborne.
dl.X	Delayed input X. There will be some delay before inputting X.
CH X	Counterhit with input X. This is used for combo starters that require counterhit confirm.
OTG X	Input X while the opponent is knocked down but still able to be hit.
X(n)	Number of hits of a multihit attack. If an attack is multihit and this is not specified, it is assumed to let the maximum number of hits complete before proceeding.
scc	Superchat Cancel. Idol Showdown unique mechanic that allows you to cancel the recovery of one special into another special.
