#UNI2_VA

Story

Vatista is an Autonomic Nerve--a non-sentient biological weapon in the form of a young girl.

She awakened upon detection of anomalies within the Hollow Night and successfully eradicated Paradox, as instructed by her commander.
With peace restored, Vatista was about to return to slumber.
But then a new threat revealed itself: Kuon the Aeon, who threatened great tragedy to the world of humankind if left unchecked.

However, Vatista never received orders to act. And so, she sets out to do battle to save the world once again--this time of her own volition.

“

Perhaps this is the first time I have chosen my own path. Perhaps it will be the last time as well...

”

Gameplay

Vatista is an incredibly versatile and extremely powerful charge character that excels in both controlling neutral with oppressive projectiles like Mico Ruseo and Lumen Stella, as well as utilising Si Deus Fragmentum 'Gems' and Trans Volans in up close pressure for extremely scary throw and high/low mixups. Rounded out by an incredible defense with her signature Ruber Angelus 'Flashkick', she is a technically demanding character able to easily switch between proactive offense and reactive defense, leaving no two Vatista players playing exactly alike.

Despite all of her strengths, Vatista does lack the mobility that comes with a run, as well as the consistency of being able to constantly access specials or an Anti air. Without Si Deus Fragmentum sets or Vorpal, her frame trap game with specials is mostly reliant on B Lumen Stella, and with a gameplan that can easily feed GRD to the opponent for free, knowing how to structure and mix up your offense becomes even more important.

Unique Mechanics: Is a Charge Character

---

Vatista is the only dedicated charge character in UNI2. Vatista's special moves are exclusively made up of charge inputs, which may be familiar to players of other fighting games.

Instead of performing motion inputs, Vatista needs to hold a cardinal direction for a certain number of frames before performing the motion and pressing the button, failing to meet the charge requirement will cause the special move to not be performed and the normal will come out instead.

• Vatista's special moves each have different charge timings, in which they are:
  • [4]6A/B/C requires 53 frames;
  • [2]8B/C requires 53 frames, and for [2]8A 38 frames only;
  • [6]4A/B/C requires 53 frames;
  • [8]2A/B/C requires 43 frames;
  • [A]/[B]/[C] Gem requires 61 frames.

• Vatista can charge at any time, including during hitstun, blockstun, superflash, during other moves, or even before the round starts.
  • Charge inputs can be done with any backwards or downwards direction, depending on what the move requires.
  • Charging is done independently, thus Vatista can charge both [4] and [2] at the same time by holding 1.
  • You can also switch between backwards/downwards directions at will and maintain charge. For example: Vatista can swap from [4] to [1] to block a low, and maintain her charge for [4]6A/B/C.
  • The final direction of [2]8 and [8]2 can be any input on the opposite end of the from the original direction, therefore [2]9A, [1]9A and [8]3A, [7]1A are all examples of valid inputs for performing Vatista's [2]8A and [8]2A.
  • The final direction on [4]6 or [6]4 however is strict, so for example [1]3A, [4]3A and [1]9A are all invalid inputs for performing Vatista's [4]6A; only [1]6A or [4]6A counts.
• After releasing a charge direction, you have 11F to perform the next input, meaning you can walk forward slightly or even perform a microdash before performing the move.
• What is defined as forwards and backwards is only checked when a button is pressed, therefore if you were holding [6] before swapping sides (For example, to run underneath them), that will count as charging [4] after the side switch.
  • The final direction is also relative to the initial charge input, so for the example above, after crossing up doing [4]6 will still counts as a [4]6 fireball on the other side, despite that the input should be reversed in normal circumstances.
• Vatista can also do Charge Partitioning: this means that you can begin a charge, release it before it has completed, do an action such as dash, then return to the charging direction quickly and finish the charge without starting over. The grace period is the same as releasing a charge: 11F after the charge is released.
  • You cannot Charge Partitioning the Gems [A]/[B]/[C].

Cost	The resources this move costs to use. GRD = GRD Blocks EXS = EXS Meter Vorpal = Vorpal GRD Break = Causes GRD Break
Attribute	Attributes of the attack. Mostly used in situations involving invul. There are two sets of attributes: Strike/Throw and Head/Foot/Dive/Projectile Every move has a Strike/Throw attribute, but doesn't always have Head/Foot/Dive/Projectile attribute. --- Strike = Strike (Anything that isn't a Throw is a Strike) Throw = Throw --- Head = Head (Most jump normals) Foot = Foot Dive = Some air specials Projectile = Projectile
Startup	Frame when the first hitbox is present. + denotes the frames before and after super flash.
Active	The amount of frames that this move will have a hitbox. (x) denotes frame gaps where there are no hitboxes is present. Due to varied blockstuns, (x) frames are difficult to use to determine punish windows. Generally the larger the numbers, the more time you have to punish.
Recovery	Frames that this move has after the active frames if not canceled.
Overall	Frames that this move takes from start to finish before the character returns to neutral.
Advantage	The difference in frames where you can act before your opponent when this move is blocked (assuming the move isn't canceled and the first active frame is blocked). If the opponent uses a move with startup equal or less than this move's advantage, it will result in opponent hitting that move. ±x~±x denotes a possible range of advantage. The left value is when the active frames hit sooner (generally worse) and the right value is for when the active frames hit later (generally better).
Invul	The frames where this move cannot be hit by an attribute. Full = Fully invincible Strike = Strike invincible Throw = Throw invincible Head = Head invincible Foot = Foot invincible Dive = Dive invincible Projectile = Projectile invincible

Vatista brings up a barrier to protect her from attacks. This guardpoint is also a stance in which she can cancel it into one of her specials without charging within a small window, or at any time if she successfully guards an attack. The corresponding commands are:

• 6X: [4]6X Lumen Stella;
• 8X: [2]8X Ruber Angelus;
• 4X: [6]4X Mico Ruseo;
• 2X: [X]X[ Si Deus Fragmentum.

She will also perform Satelles Triangulum directly by inputting 2C in this mode, but with the cost of 100 EXS.

Totally not recommended to use as a newbie way to perform specials without a charge, as it adds 35 frames startup to the moves.

  • Including in the air.
• Requires at least 100 meter and consumes Vorpal state and drains meter at a fast rate.
• Has a lot of hitstun, making it easy to combo from.
• Allows for an additional bounce in the combo if two have been used so far, without hitting the combo bounce limit.
• Pressing A+B+C can be used for a shortcut for Infinite Worth.
• Used mostly as a way to tack on extra damage, or to reliably close out the round.
