"Guest" character from Hangyakusei Million Arthur, a mobile MMORPG that shut down within a year. But hey, it also had an anime where half of the fanservice scenes featured this character. Also, Danchou when?

Overview

Yamaneko is a zoning character with projectiles on 5D, j.D, and j.2D. While those are only 3 moves, she has a unique unique with her 214D that lets her load special bullets based on the assists she calls by canceling the assist call animation into 214D/j.214D. This gives her lots of ways to augment both her moveset and her access to elemental counterhits, as the loaded bullets carry elemental properties.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths	Weaknesses
Very strong projectiles. j.B crossup and 6C give her good high/low mixup 623XX allows for very strong okizeme Elemental bullets give her the most room for combo personalization in the cast	Below average mobility Lackluster frame advantage Average normal range Below average damage Need to use 214D after assist calls makes using level 1 assists riskier

Recommended Support Knights

• Pharsalia: 236xx>pharsalia>214d> into another super of choice or 236x/normal close to the corner. basically it allows for easy 11-13k damage while giving bullet charge stocks, if you have the resources to spend

• Scathach: Good for forcing the opponent to move and grants level 2 windball charge for zoning. Can whiff punish with this as well.

• Aife: Another decent zoning assist. There are some blind spots in her attack but placed well gives you a way to push them back and grants level 2 windball charge.

• Arthur Sorcery King: very fast horizontal hit confirm assist. Can throw this out in neutral/pressure to tag antsy players who like to push buttons or use it as a hit confirm for imagination combos.

This can be avoided by getting an elemental counterhit with a bullet. Note that counterhit 5D into another 5D WILL make the combo drop, while 5D into counterhit 5D will not. -J.2D and 5D are considered 2 different moves and can combo into eachother without dropping after.
