Overview

Playstyle

F-Maids Is the resident puppet character of AACC, using both Hisui and Kohaku in tandem to overwhelm their opponents limited only by resources.
Pros	Cons
Insane pressure: One of the best pressure games in all of MBAACC when hearts are stored, with moves being both frame traps and reset points with absurd frame advantage, and even having great pressure midscreen. Oppressive set-play: Very good set-play thanks to Kohaku 22X specials and Hisui's chairs and molotovs Great neutral: Retains F-Kohaku amazing buttons and even keeps her Batou Wave specials after 5[C], and with her amazing Hisui assists, makes it really hard to approach safely. Sister can act even if the main siter is hit: Assists can act even if you are being hit if you called them prior, forcing players to end combos early in those situations or get counter hit and being combo'd themselves. Has a lot of damage potential: With the right set-up and sister placement, F-Maids can reach ludicrous amounts of damage that all end in hard knockdown.	Very weak without resources: Without hearts or with a sister down, they both become extremely vulnerable and need to play smart while waiting for an opportunity to recharge hearts. Weaker damage overall than their solo counterparts: F-Maids both have less health and damage than their solo counterparts, and with the loss of some crucial BnB combo moves (Kohaku j.214C, Hisui 623X series, etc...), Make their average damage somewhat low aside from some specific set-ups. Opponent can hit both for double meter: The opponent can hit both sisters at once if you called them before and you are close together. While this doesn't do double damage (thank god), it does build double the meter. Lack defensive moves outside of universal mechanics: They are both really weak to pressure, as their only form of reversal is an Arc Drive. Very poor ways to spend meter: Extremely poor meter usage due to their limited movepool. You'll be mostly spending meter for Kohaku 22C. Hisui 22C is too slow to be useful, and 5[C]>236C with Kohaku can't always be used, making avoiding reaching MAX a hard task.

General Gameplan

As the intro may suggest, F-Maids is, in a game with 9 different duo characters, the actual puppeteer of the game. In contrast to those teams, which normally retain most if not all of their special attacks, gain new ones, or keep some of their command normals, F-Maids only has access to 22x and 3c as specials and command normals respectively (There is one exception, which is explained in the move description) This means each Maid is severely gimped by themselves, even more so than in C-Maids and H-Maids but in tandem with one and other, it sets up one of the scariest characters in pressure in all of Melty Blood.

Compared to other assists, which are normally pretty slow and mostly reserved to Setplay, or pretty fast but leave the main character stuck in place, F-Maids' have both ligthning fast Start-up, with both neutral, pressure, and setplay applications. This is balanced by an unique resource: Hearts.

F-Maids starts with 5 hearts. Depending on the type of assist used, it drains 1 heart (A Assists), 2 Hearts (B Assists) and 3 Hearts (C Assists). If you try to use an assist which cost goes beyond the current amount of hearts, the sister comically falls over, and tragedily leaves the main sister alone, and we seriously do not want that. That's why it's important to use 22D, which switches between sisters, and 236D, which recharges the Hearts meter without switching the sisters, and it takes a bit longer. While the assists are fantastic, this means you need to be careful of when to use them.

When actually playing F-Maids, each sister has an agreed upon role:

• Kohaku should be your point character and the one you start pressure as. Her buttons are extremely good, has fullscreen range in 5[C], and Hisui assists leave themselves extremely well to both neutral and pressure tactics.

214B Defines Kohaku lead to an extent. Hisui charges in with her 5C, giving an extremely generous block advantage on block (over a second!) while serving as midscreen Oki after an Airthrow. 214C is mostly used in the corner to be able to switch safely with a 22C afterwards. You can actually switch between the sisters with 22D on round start, so you don't actually need to start with Hisui.

• Hisui may not have the best attacks to rumble in neutral, and her only anti air costs 2 hearts, but in exchange, she has a very specific but important role, Corner Pressure.

Once the opponent is stuck in the corner, mostly with the Blockstring>214C>22C string, Hisui can enter main stage and reach insane levels of hopelessness, with the most damaging combos of the two sisters, guaranteed mix-ups, all while being protected by a well placed chair.

236CC is the main attraction here. Kohaku takes off to the sky and starts doing her 214[B] (Molotovs). While the opponent is blocking, you can set up a chair and go in for a Mix-up, while Kohaku is behind them. Thanks to this, the sisters can more or less "Ping-pong" the opponent with 214A and still be safe afterwards for again, another mix-up or reset. If you open them up, the following combo will reset to Oki, give you time to recharge hearts, and do it all over again.

With this laid out, it's easy to see that you can't just use a Lead all the way like with C and H, and you really need to know what each maid can bring to the table to bring the most out of this character.

Full Moon Specifics

F-Maids has only 22C and arc drives to use meter on. Don't be afraid to use them a lot, unless you are going for a Blood heat or Initiative Heat (IH). You can also charge meter while Kohaku C assist is out.

After Current Code, Maids can no longer recharge love when a plant is out. To work around this, use maid swap since it will reset the meter to full.
Sometimes it is worth it to let your assist die (deplete love meter). Her fall can still pressure and damage, and she will resurrect with 3 hearts after ~5 seconds. Also, you can't cancel into 236D like you can with your other assist moves.

All this stuff and more is up to your own judgement.

Neutral

Spacing

• [Kohaku]

Just like normal F Kohaku, on neutral, you'll mostly want to stay at range where j.B can safely hit. You still have your 236x Special, but it needs to be done as a follow-up to your 5[C]. It's definitely a good tool to have but due to its very slow nature it's only ever useful against fullscreen opponents or people trying to set-up on Neutral, like Nero or C-Roa.

Adding to this, 214[B] is a very solid way to cover the ground while keeping you extremely plus. Don't abuse it as it can be easily jumped and you are using 2 hearts, while keeping you in CH State until the end of the animation. Using this to your advantage, you can mix it up with a 236CB to also control the air inmediately if Hisui was near them, while giving you a knockdown if it hits.

Once things start getting more personal, you can use buttons like 5B, 5C and j.A. for their reach, these buttons are extremely fast, and with the first two, can be confirmed with a 214B Assist to start your pressure.

• [Hisui]

You normally don't want to use Hisui point as her assists and buttons are generally outdone by her sister, but if you had to tag to restore hearts or any other event makes you have to use Hisui for a while, it's nice to know your options.

j.C/[C] have very long reach and are angled downwards, making a solid option to approach using IADs at a long range. They have very big hurtboxes so be careful when you throw them out

Since Hisui lacks any ressemblance of an upwards hitbox aside from j.[B], and because you no longer have item toss like F Hisui, your anti air options are somewhat more limited. You still have pretty good Air to Air option when the opponent is on the front and under, but normally you'll be at a disadvantage against incoming jumps. You can use 214B and still be plus. Your 5A is still a nice way to stop IADs as it hits very high up.

Movement

• [Kohaku]

Compared to her sister, Kohaku is kind of a slowpoke. Her attacks have a lot of reach, but her ground and airdash are somewhat laggy, and her backdash takes a while to complete. She doesn't really need it as her buttons mostly circumvent it, but it can be tricky to escape certain scenarios with her. Even then, if you can't get in, remember Kohaku still has fullscreen pressence with 22A, 5[C] and her assists.

Do note that airdash backwards j.B can cover an angle that a lot of players don't expect, so it's good to know.

• [Hisui]

Now Hisui clearly delivers better in this aspect than Kohaku. Her dash and backdash are pretty decent, as well as her aerial versions. Due to this and her really long j.C, Hisui can cover a lot of ground while still having decent tools to scramble in neutral. This singular point is why some players decide to use Hisui point, and in some MUs where speed is really important, it can easily be seen why. It's up to your judgement which one you prefer.

Combos

Combo Notation Help
Disclaimer: Combos are written by various writers, so the actual notation used in pages can differ from the standard one. For more information, see Glossary and Controls.
X > Y	X input is cancelled into Y.
X > delay Y	Must wait for a short period before cancelling X input into Y.
X, Y	X input is linked into Y, meaning Y is done after X's recovery period.
X+Y	Buttons X and Y must be input simultaneously.
X/Y	Either the X or Y input can be used.
X~Y	This notation has two meanings. Use attack X with Y follow-up input. Input X then within a few frames, input Y. Usually used for option selects.
X(w)	X input must not hit the opponent (Whiff).
j.X	X input is done in the air, implies a jump/jump cancel if the previous move was done from the ground. Applies to all air chain sections: Assume a forward jump cancel if no direction is given. Air chains such as j.A > j.B > j.C can be shortened to j.ABC.
sj.X	X input is done after a super jump. Notated as sj8.X and sj9.X for neutral and forward super jumps respectively.
dj.X	X input is done after a double jump.
sdj.X	X input is done after a double super jump.
tk.X	Stands for Tiger Knee. X motion must be buffered before jumping, inputting the move as close to the ground as possible. (ex. tk.236A)
(X)	X is optional. Typically the combo will be easier if omitted.
[X]	Input X is held down. Also referred to as Blowback Edge (BE). Depending on the character, this can indicate that this button is held down and not released until indicated by the release notation.
]X[	Input X is released. Will only appear if a button is previously held down. This type of input is referred to as Negative Edge.
{X}	Button X should only be held down briefly to get a partially charged version instead of the fully charged one.
X(N)	Attack "X" should only hit N times.
(XYZ)xN	XYZ string must be performed N times. Combos using this notation are usually referred to as loops.
(XYZ^)	A pre-existing combo labelled XYZ is inserted here for shortening purposes.
CH	The first attack must be a Counter Hit.
Air CH	The first attack must be a Counter Hit on an airborne opponent.
66	Performs a ground forward dash.
j.66	Performs an aerial forward dash, used as a cancel for certain characters' air strings.
IAD/IABD	Performs an Instant AirDash.
AT	Performs an Air Throw. (j.6/4A+D)
IH	Performs an Initiative Heat.
AD	Performs an Arc Drive.
AAD	Performs an Another Arc Drive.

Normal starter 2AA > 5B > 2B > 2C > 3CC > j.BC sdj.ABC > AT 4071 Meter Gained: 81% Meter Given (vs C-Moon): 27% Deals more damage but sacrifices pressure, since opponent can tech after airgrab. Use for killing opponent or when love meter is depleted, although, this does allow a 50/50 tech chase scenario, with wait and 2B (Neutral/Forward) and Dash 2B (Back)

Note: They must be grounded for this combo to work. You need to input j.[C] a LOT earlier than you think. Followup with 236AA assist > blockstring or if enemy is cornered, 236CC assist into blockstring and chair or fast grab or meter charge. The last part in parenthesis is an optional OTG route to get a tad more meter and damage. You can cancel it into 22A if you think they will back or neutral tech, or do nothing, or read the forward tech for more damage. Do this if you don't want to/can't use more hearts for oki

Condition Notation Damage vs V.Sion Notes
Normal starter 2AA > 5B > 2B > 2C > (delay) 3C > j.ABC > sdj.ABC > AT 3981 Meter Gained: 68.4% Meter Given (vs C-Moon): 23.9% Basic BnB aircombo. Leave out 2B if you are far, since it can whiff. If you find yourself whiffing anything in the aircombo, just input everything faster. Followup with hisui B assist (214B / 236A>B). Some characters don't need the delay between 2C and 3C, but it helps to make the combo consistent generally. Skip the delay against : Ciel, Akiha, PCiel, VAkiha, Seifuku, Len, WLen. Do j.BC > dj.BC > AT against the Necos.
Normal starter 2A > 5B > 2B > 2C > (delay) 3C > IAD j.B, land j.AAC sdj.ABC > AT 4004 Meter Gained: 71.5% Meter Given (vs C-Moon): 24.9% IAD combo for slightly more damage, meter and corner carry. Not worth using if you can't do it consistently. Again, tthe Delay is technically not necessary, but it leaves them at a height where the first j.A will hit at the first possible frame, making it an easier link.
22C starter (Cactus Hit) 5C, 5C, 5C, 5C > 2[C] 4283 Meter Gained: 23.1% Meter Given (vs C-Moon): 32.4% This is the combo you use when enemy is getting hit by 22C plant. Obviously decrease the number of 5C if you don't have time. Transition into 22B into blockstring or fast grab. If this happens outside corner, it's most likely more worth it to go for an aircombo unless you do not have meter to follow it up with assist oki.
22C starter (Cactus Hit) 5C, 5C, 5C, 5C, 5[C], 5B > 5C > j.ABC sdj.ABC 4963-5008 Meter Gained: 53.9% Meter Given (vs C-Moon): 61.8% Combo for killing the opponent. Damage seems to be random. Make sure to delay as much as you can after the 5[C] so that the 5B > 5C properly connects.
Raw Airthrow starter Raw AT > delay j.66 > j.C > land > j.ABC > sdj.ABC > AT 3014 Meter Gained: 42.3% Meter Given (vs C-Moon): 16.3% Easier and more consistent combo off raw airthrow for less damage. Try to hit the opponent as low to the ground as possible after the bounce.
Raw Airthrow starter Raw AT > j.A(w), (66) 5B > 5C > j.ABC > sdj.ABC > AT 3189 Meter Gained:  ??? Meter Given (vs C-Moon): ??? Combo off raw airthrow.

Move Descriptions

Frame Data Help
Header	Tooltip
Move Box Colors	Light gray = Collision Box (A move lacking one means it can go through the opponent's own collision box). Green: Hurt Boxes. Red: Hit(/Grab) Boxes. Yellow: Clash Boxes (When an active hitbox strikes a clash box, the active hitbox stops being active. Multi-hit attacks can beat clash since they will still progress to the next hitbox.) Magenta: Projectile-reflecting boxes OR Non-hit attack trigger boxes (usually). Blue: Reflectable Projectile Boxes.
Damage	Base damage done by this attack. (X) denotes combined and scaled damage tested against standing V. Sion.
Red Damage	Damage done to the recoverable red health bar by this attack. The values are inherently scaled and tested against standing V. Sion. (X) denotes combined damage.
Proration	The correction value set by this attack and the way it modifies the scaling during a string. See this page for more details. X% (O) means X% Overrides the previous correction value in a combo if X is of a lower percentage. X% (M) means the current correction value in a combo will be Multiplied by X%. This can also be referred to as relative proration.
Circuit	Meter gained by this attack on hit. (X%) denotes combined meter gain. -X% denotes a meter cost.
Cancel	Actions this move can be cancelled into. SE = Self cancelable. N = Normal cancelable. SP = Special cancelable. CH = Cancelable into the next part of the same attack (Chain in case of specials). EX = EX cancelable. J = Jump cancelable. (X) = Cancelable only on hit. -X- = Cancelable on whiff.
Guard	The way this move must be blocked. L = Can block crouching H = Can block standing. A = Can block in the air. U = Unblockable.
Startup	Amount of frames that must pass prior to reaching the active frames. Also referred to as "True Startup".
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. X denotes active frames with a duration separate from its origin move's frame data, such as projectile attacks. In this case, the total length of the move is startup+recovery only.
Recovery	Frames that this move has after the active frames if not canceled. The character goes into one frame where they can block but not act afterwards, which is not counted here.
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 that is at least 2 frames less than this move's negative advantage, it will result in the opponent hitting that move. ±x~±y denotes a range of possible advantages.
Invul	Lists any defensive properties this move has. X y~z denotes X property happening between the y to z frames of the animations. If no frames are noted, it means the invincibility lasts through the entire move. Invicibility: Strike = Strike invincible. Throw = Throw invincible. Hurtbox-Based Properties: Full = No hurtboxes are present. High = Upper body lacks a hurtbox. Low = Lower body lacks a hurtbox. Miscellaneous Properties Clash = Frames in which clash boxes are active. Reflect = Frames in which projectile-reflecting boxes are active. Super Armor = Frames in which the character can take hits without going into hit stun.

This move has its own special cancel properties where you can IH/EX or special cancel it to her 236x series even on whiff. Works well as a tech punish or simple guard bar damage after a wallslam. Be careful with it, since it is deflectable. Can be used in neutral when the opponent is turtling, as it does good chip damage and gains you a lot of meter. Charge for 25 frames minimum

If you are close to the other sister, it has less recovery, making it the fastest way to recharge hearts. Contrary to 236D, it can be used while a plant is out. The other sister won't take up the location the sister who initiated 22D, but literally just take the handle from where the other sister was during 22D. This can lead to you being in the corner to them instantly being in it. It can also be used as a ghetto cross-up mix-up after a throw but this won't work against people who expect it.

This is especially great for Kohaku lead as she tends to prefer to control the fight from longer than 22D becomes the faster way to recharge. Beeware that the sister is in a total CH state during the whole duration. When you do this move, make absolutely certain you can't be interrupted. Otherwise you'll die. A lot.

Character defining. tk.236CC from Hisui lead in corner pressure is one of the scariest situations to be. The amount of blockstun unlocks sandbox mode with the mix-ups you can do.

All of this let's Hisui recharge hearts and place chair ALWAYS, even if you somehow blocked the molotov mix-ups, so if you somehow didn't get hit before, you'll do after. LEARN WHAT YOU CAN DO FROM THIS, IT IS ESSENTIAL.

For one heart, that is really cost-effective. It acts both as a reset and stagger tool. They blocked? +16. They got hit? Hisui now can do up to 5k damage. Really good assist. (B version) - F-Kohaku 236B assist. This is one of your few grounded anti-air options as Hisui lead. It's good at that job but it costing 2 hearts means you'll have to know when it's worth and not worth to use it. (C version) - C/H-Kohaku 214C assist. Eh, not nearly as good as 236CC. The cost is too much and the blockstun isn't nearly as much. You can get a lot of damage if they get hit by it but yeah, not recommended to abuse.

A Damage Red Damage Proration Cancel Guard - - - - - First Active Active Recovery Frame Adv Circuit Invuln 35 360 41 - 1.8% - Hisui pulls out a chair that acts as a lingering clash box. All chairs have a collision box, meaning the opponent can't go through them like with H-Hisui 22C. Only one chair can be up at a time. Places a wooden chair. Clashes once then breaks. The 22X special you see people actually use, basically saying "no" against people wanting to mash or reversal out of your pressure. Make sure you aren't too close to them when you set 22A, there will be some collision box jank and place the chair behind them, making it practically useless. B Damage Red Damage Proration Cancel Guard - - - - - First Active Active Recovery Frame Adv Circuit Invuln 42 243 50 - 1.8% - Small, foward-moving wheeled chair. On clash, this will be reflected and will clash with Hisui's own attacks once before breaking. Read the last fact about this move. That singlehandedly makes it an extremely situational (to not say useless) move. You are better to just ignore it. EX Damage Red Damage Proration Cancel Guard - - - - - First Active Active Recovery Frame Adv Circuit Invuln 17+41 400 17+47 - -100.0% - The throne. Clashes twice before breaking. It would be really good if it wasn't sooooo slow to place. It can be good for one thing, and that's when you have characters like C-Roa or most projectile zoners, and have yourself a protection against those long range multi-hit attacks. Other than that, yeah...

Unique followups from 236C. (A version) - Hisui j.B assist. The hitbox leaves to be desired but just like H236CA, being able to tag someone from far away in the air is valuable, it's just that, well, you already have Kohaku j.B, so the ranges where you can't already tag them with your j.B but Hisui can is in concept, very situational. (B version) - j.[C] assist. Instant Hisui j.[C] would be god tier if this was A version and not B. As it is now, while good at its job, it being 2 hearts means you really have to consider when you are going to use this. For this reason, you mostly see it in the corner combos that use it. (C version) - j.2C assist. Just like H236CB, this is a prime combo-breaker. At 100% proration and having high hitstun, means you can most of the time go into your own damaging combo afterwards. It costs 3 hearts so only use this when you are certain it will turn the tide in your favour significantly. A whiffed j.2C is horrible.

Startup in parenthesis are for the 236A/B followup version. Grounded Hisui assists. Those can also be done out of 236A/B. (A version) - Hisui 5B assist. Chargeable into a wallslamming version. Most of what I said for H214A applies here, but now you can also charge it for even more tricky pressure. At the expense of this, you tend to not be able to get as good as the conversions H214A gives Hisui. At long range, you can only go for 2C into plant, while Hisui can easily 66B into Molotov set-play. Still, this move is still very good. (B version) - 5C assist. Chargeable too. When people think about F-Maids, they picture Hisui running towards them and ramming a chair into their back while Kohaku combos from it. This is an ubiquitous part of your arsenal for very good reasons. For starters, if you have 5 hearts after an air throw, doing K214[B] and then K214C to get a cactus out, you do exactly that. The opponent can try to backdash if they are midscreen, so you should also mix it up with K236[A]-[B] for those situations. Second, this is over +60 on block when charged. It is a brain-dead easy way to start your offense. People SHOULD fear this when they are up against you. Remember that, as good as it is, you are using 2 out of your 5 hearts, so if you get predictable with it, you are gonna burn through your resources fast. (C version) - Solo Hisui 236X assist. Go to H236CC and K22C sections to learn why this is arguably your most important move and why you should try to always have 3 hearts at all times if possible.

A (~[X]) Damage Red Damage Proration Cancel Guard 333*N 101*N 100% - LHA First Active Active Recovery Frame Adv Circuit Invuln 57 (~58) X 49 - 2.7%*N - Kohaku puts out a spinning pine tree that goes diagonally upwards. The take-off can be delayed by holding any button beforehand, giving you a negative-edge type attack. Being able to be held by another button that isn't A allows you to do things like Throw then ]X[, giving you increased damage and reducing their tech window. It is useful after an air throw where you don't have any hearts to follow up and want to refill hearts. Set it up, and now you have a line of defense if they want to interrupt you. This can be hard called and get you punished if they go full aggro after they see you setting a 22A, so also trying to mix it up as a way to cover your own approach after the air throw and as way to cover theirs is a toss-up in your advantage. As a final note, it is probably the best "set-play" she can do after a throw as it is quick to be able to hit opponents and fast to recover Kohaku herself. This is preferred if you don't have hearts and want to keep pressure. B Damage Red Damage Proration Cancel Guard 280*8 (1724) (802) -4%*8 - LHA First Active Active Recovery Frame Adv Circuit Invuln 81 32 53 - 2.7%*8 (21.6%) - This version puts out a grounded multihit spinning tree. The version you will see used after most 2Cs as it doesn't hit OTG like 22C and how it tends to line-up perfectly the moment they wake-up. You tend to see players either use this as an opportunity to switch sisters or to try to mix them up with things like j.C IAD j.BC, super jump into empty jump 2A, and things like that. Not much different from other Kohaku's 22B situations.

On hit, this will finish with a superflash into a wallslam hit. An absolutely essential part of your corner game. Strings ending in 214C and then doing 22C allow Maids to get their plan rolling. Switching to Hisui while cactus is hitting, for you to hit them with a tk.236CC mix-up afterwards is an extremely strong asset for Maids. Having said that, smart players will know this, and they will bunker at certain parts of your string if you always autopilot the same strings ending in 214C>22C. This is extra important against Half-Moon. They are the only ones who can react to 22C super flash and beat you with their bunker. You'll have to employ different tactics against them when they are have 100% meter and above.

Damage Red Damage Proration Cancel Guard - - - - - First Active Active Recovery Frame Adv Circuit Invuln - - 24+100 - -100.0% - Kohaku injects herself with drugs, granting her Blood Heat and super armor during its duration. After the long super flash, there is a long startup (100f), and it can only be safely used if the opponent is under cactus lockdown. The Blood Heat lasts 300f (5 seconds), shorter than Full Moon's maximum Blood Heat duration (750f, or 12.5 seconds). The super armor will end early if she gets thrown. 24f of startup, then long super flash, then 100f before it becomes active. While cool-looking, this move has no real practical uses, unless you want to use it for memes.
