Mikoto Misaka

Introduction

Originally from the light novel Toaru Majutsu no Index.


Gameplay

Mikoto specializes both in zoning and close-range combat. her aim is to harass her opponents with long range pokes and projectiles until she can get an occasion to safely get in. her moves are fast, but hit very specific areas (best example being j[C]) so you'll have to properly space all the time. This is complimented by her airdash and 214x series, which allow her to get in or get away depending on the situation.

Mikoto is also great at getting knockdowns from almost every confirms, allowing her to set good okizemes, especially when the right assists are chosen.

Mikoto can have a hard time setting her game because of her overall lackluster mid-range game, lack of reliable anti-air and bad AB moves. All of this makes it hard for her to get out when she is in a pinch, especially against character with fast and high priority normals. You always need to be one step ahead of the opponent to avoid finding yourself in that position

Pros

  • Strong zoning game
  • Higher than average mobility
  • Having an airdash and consistently getting knockdown gives her a good rushdown game.

Cons

  • Lower than average damage
  • Suffers from her moves' dead angles
  • Huge whiff recovery on most of her zoning moves, making mistakes costly.
  • Poor anti-air and AB moves makes it hard to get out of pressure


Recommended Assists

Ryuuji Takasu - One of the best assists to play Mikoto in a more aggressive way : Ryuuji doesn't improve her zoning game, but Mikoto's ability to get knockdowns from almost every move allows her to safely set Ryuuji most of the time. You can also summon Ryuuji on neutral and punish them for trying to hit him with your moveset and mobility. Once he managed to travel safely thanks to Mikoto's cover, Ryuuji is one of the best pressure assists, as he is hard to push away and gives Mikoto many opportunities to attempt high/low mixups with 2B and 4AB, and easily confirm from them. He can also be situationally used as a counter-zoning move, as he can trigger a specific attack when he clashes with a projectile upon arriving. To sum it up, a somewhat hard to use, but incredibly beneficial and versatile assist for Mikoto.

Accelerator - The other favorite Mikoto assist. This one allows you to play a more well-rounded game : 6D is great for covering space and compliments Mikoto's neutral well. The huge hitsun coupled with her moves allows her to get great hit-confirms from this assist. It is also vastly useful for hitconfirms from up close or from a distance, as it allows you to easily get purple blast or combos out of almost every starter when timed right. 5D's very long active frame makes it a good shield on neutral to set your zoning game or get your way in when it is triggered. It also shines when coupled with her okizeme game, as it seals most of your opponent's defensive options and allow you to set your mixups without fearing a possible AB move or random Ranbu

Dokuro - A classic choice that goes well with Mikoto. the synergy is simple but efficient : abuse the various ranges 5D and 6D cover to restrict their movement and use the fast recharge rate of both moves to harass them in any situation. You also get damaging confirms whenever the assist hits thanks to Mikoto's 41236B+C. Hit them and hit them, that's all there is to it.

500 9 3 19 -7
+10 (JC)
JC, SC, EX, ISC, TCC, CAC HL -

Angled electric shock that hits the ground. Range is similar to 5A but will also hit grounded opponents. Rather long recovery, so it’s susceptible to armor from Impact Skills. Jump cancellable and will combo into a rising j.C on standing opponents

700 10 3 21 -7 SC, EX, ISC, TCC, CAC HLA -

Parabolic electric shock starting at her head. Good range and hits above her, so it can be useful to catch jump outs. Very bad on block, can be punished by some Climax Arts.

920 11 10 17 -2 SC, EX, ISC, TCC, CAC HL -

Attacks with many iron sand spikes. Does not knock down, but has multiple hits. Good for okizeme as it will beat out the armor from Impact Skills. Air unblockable. Very safe for a 2C move.

1310 19 12 23 -3 SC, EX, ISC, TCC, CAC HLA -

Longer range (2/3 screen), but has a much longer startup, so the timing must be later for use in okizeme or the opponent can jump out. Higher hitbox and will wall bound in the corner. Does not hit low.

j.A

250 7 2 X+2 Varies JC, SC, EX HA -

Mikoto levitates into the air at about 70 degrees behind her. At that point, you can cancel into multiple actions:

  • Air Movement 「空中移動」: Press forward or back to shift from one piece of rubble to another in the direction specified. Can be done a maximum of two times per 214X in any order. You can then follow into "Cancel," "Attack over there," or "Frontal Attack."
  • Cancel 「解除」: Press down to immediately cancel 214X or a preceding follow-up. This option is always available unless you used "Frontal Attack." Roughly 6 frames of landing lag.
  • Attack over there! 「その場で攻撃」: Pressing A/B/C will shoot out a boulder roughly 45 to 60 degrees below and in front of Mikoto. The trajectory depends on what button you pressed. You can then follow into "Air Movement," "Cancel," another "Attack over there," or even "Frontal Attack."
  • Frontal Attack 「前方に攻撃」: Holding forward and pressing A/B/C will lunge Mikoto forward while she throws a pillar at the opponent. The steepness of the pillar's trajectory depends on what button you press. This follow-up will cause you to leave the levitation state.
  • The air versions operate identically to their grounded counterparts.

A faster, more powerful version of the normal Magnetic Move. The follow-up commands and restrictions are identical, but your "Air Movement" follow-ups are now faster. "Attack over there!" throws larger boulders that go faster and do more damage. Likewise, "Frontal Attack" will cause you to leave the levitation state but with a stronger, larger pillar in hand.

  • It is worth noting that the timer before levitation ends is slightly shorter in the EX version.
  • If you do not prematurely end the levitation with "Cancel" or "Frontal Attack," Mikoto goes into a free air state, where you can air dash, jump, and use jump normals. However, you cannot use any j.214X move.
  • Frame data note: The recovery on all follow-ups and the move itself have been decreased. The move itself essentially has 0 recovery. "Attack over there!" has as much recovery as your air time afterward.
