Scharlachrot

Profile

Another Valkyrie who was brought into existence by the Japanese branch of the Drexler Institute, she's the product of their experiments in creating artificial angels. Like Weiss, she was trained almost since birth to be the perfect soldier by the Institute, who hid their activities by pretending to be a religious order.

Scharlachrot has a very strong emotional attachment to Weiss, and would gladly kill or die for her in equal measure. After the downfall of the Drexler Institute, she was taken under Petra's wing, but has since disappeared. Scharlachrot blocks the angels' way as the ultimate opponent. What has happened to her? What is her true objective?

Overview

Long-ranged zoner with below-average HP (due to reverse guts). Arguably the best pressure character, she can pressure from a distance where the opponent's counter-play options are limited. She also has tricks, often using her fulcrums (236A/B/C), to open-up opponents who only block.

Kind of slow, but plus on block. If you happen to clash her hand with a move from the opponent, if you let the move come out completely, it will be sure to stuff or counter almost whatever the opponent will cancel into next. 5A and 2A are slow, but they are recognized as level 2 moves, so they cancel and connect directly into C or E attacks.

That will get you nowhere with Schar, since this is "oop aww I whiffed this move" No. 1. This is good as an anti air but its not like it will just beat everything if you time it. The best way to use this is to use the very tip of 5B. This cancels into and out of 2B.

This move has excellent reach, hit stun and damage, you'll find yourself using it a lot. This also combos from 2A and 5A on hit. As said the hitstun is ridiculously long, so long that if a fulcrum is near by and you hit with 5C, you can combo into an A Burst.

This has absolutely no hitbox horizontally, so get out of the habit of throwing 2B's out based of muscle memory from other characters since this is since this is "oop aww I whiffed this move" No. 2. This works really well as an anti-air on characters that come down directly on top of you, like Kira with her JE; you can steal the initiative from those characters by throwing this move out early. Also chains into itself up to 5 times.

Floats the opponent on hit and the second hit pulls them in. For combos, its easier to cancel the first hit of this move. 2nd hit will always use P2 unless the 1st hit whiffs.

You could probably use this as an anti air (like every other 2E) but 2B or 5B would be better. However, since this is air unblockable, you can use it to catch opponent that are trying air block your moves.

You can actually get two hits out of this move if you are really close to big/long characters like Catherine or Nazuna. This start up for the first attack is 4 frames.... but that's for the hitbox in the back. If you where going to use this move normally, its actually 14 frames. 1st hit does not cancel into anything, and sets proration to 80%.

j.E

j.E

Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 2300 H/A Sp, Su 15 6 19 - - Schar swings two chains down at the opponent, this has great downward reach and downs the opponent on hit, but it hits mid. It has a little bit going for it in terms of horizontal stretch, so you can easily end air combos with this. As said before, this has tremendous reach straight down, is very easy to do left/right mixups when you are above your opponent; because of the down status on hit though, you don't get much from it though. You can't be too aggressive with this move either. Schar says "crawl!" 「這えッ！」 (Hae) when doing this move... kinda catchy, makes people say it a lot (lol).

j.6B

j.6B	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 1600 All Sp, Su 9 11 16 - - Schar sends a chain out diagonally upward, this move is kind of like a 5B in air. In SS, you can't cancel j.6B to other moves (besides j.E) without EF and can't be jump canceled. This move is great for adding a good bit of damage to random air hits.

j.6BB

j.6BB	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level (1740) - Sp, Su 13 - - - - New button for Scharl. Using this will trade oki options you could get from j.E for damage.

j.6C

j.6C

Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 2000 Sp, Su All 17 6 19 - - A horizontal swing of the chain in air, think of it like a Jump 5C. On hit you can follow it up with a homing cancel. Great for neutral or backjumps into this move for air to air spacing. Using this move to control the pace of the match, grab space, and trip up the opponent SOP for Schar. This move is pretty slow slow so its not that great of an idea to use NH to just fly in with it and try hit the opponent from where they can't hit you with it, you might just eat a counter hit.

Specials

Fulcrum Schlinge

Chain - Fulcrum Schlinge 236X (Air O.K.)

Version Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level Ground - - - A: 42 B/C: 43 - 22 Total - - Air - - - 43 - 28 Total - - Sets a fulcrum, a point that all of Schar's chains can bind to. All of the follow version around Schar's circumference . After setting the fulcrum, it travels away from you slowly in the vector that you set it out in the first place in relation to Schar's current position . If you are too close to the floor or corner, the fulcrum will come out just as far as it can travel from there, and its drift vector will be changed accordingly. The same thing will happen if a moving fulcrum where to touch the floor or a corner, it will bounce off and change its trajectory accordingly. All fulcrums come out about 3 character space away from you. After setting a fulcrum in air, you lose your upwards momentum and start to fall.

Quick Ketten

Chain - Quick Binding Ketten [X] When chain is near fulcrum	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level - - - - - - - - Holding the attack button will latch the chain to a fulcrum. A good way to get the follow ups faster.

Binding Ketten

Chain - Binding Ketten 623X

Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 1500 All - 19 Till connect 50+a - B A good portion of Schar's specials revolve around this move. By using 623 and any button, you can make one of Schar's chains bind to the nearest fulcrum. As said before, you can also achieve this by using one of her many chain normals, then either hold or mash the button you used to make a connection to the Fulcrum. You can stay connected to a fulcrum point for up to 40 frames. In this time you can use: Burst, Snap or Dissolve as a follow up to this move.

Anzuden

Chain - Exploding Anzunden X While chain bound

Version Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level Fuse 500 All - 1 Till Fulcrum - - A Schar sends a glowing sphere of energy towards a fulcrum that she's connected too, causing the fulcrum to explode. A Blast 2500 All - 1 11 - - D Fastest fuse B Blast 3000 All - 1 11 - - D Slower fuse; More damage than the A version C Blast 500*6 All - 1 2*5,1 - - D Slowest fuse; Does up to 6 hits, but each hit only does a fraction of the B version's damage.

Springen

Chain - Swinging Springen 8 While chain bound	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 1000 Mid - 5 While Moving Till L - C Schar uses the fulcrum as a pivot and leaps in a crescent arc. Towards the end of the leap, there is an offensive hitbox, but you can cancel into any jump attack during the later half of this move. Great for pressure.

Laufen

Chain - Laufen 6 While chain bound	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 1000 Mid - 5 While Moving Till L - C Similar to Springen, but follows a more forward arc.

Warten

Chain - End Warten 4 While chain bound	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level - - - - - - - - Cancels your link to a fulcrum.

Schwanz

Chain - Attacking Schwanz 214X	Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level 1200 All Su 9 24 38 -46 B Draws a wide arc with a chain. This move as well can connect to a fulcrum if you hold the button. It is really negative on hit and block so it's really bad to throw out without a plan, but with homing cancel or some Arcana super cancels (Plant 214214E) this can become really strong.

Rustung

Chain - Armored Rustung 22X (Air O.K.)

Version Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level A 300*11 Mid Su 7 1×6,2×4,4 13+17 -2 B B 300*11 Mid Su 9 1×6,2×4,4 13+17 -2 B C 300*11 Mid Su 11 1×6,2×4,4 20+17 -2 B Schar slightly jumps up and spins for a DP-like move. This is air unblockable, but has no invincibility at all, so its a rather poor DP. The later half of this move can be homing canceled. This move can connect directly into Frenzy Frevel. The different versions of this move change how high Schar rises before the attack.

Supers

Schmerz

Murder Chain - Strangling Schmerz 236AB

Damage Guard Cancel Untech Time Tech Proration P1 Proration P2 Proration 6370 (0, 2250, 1870, 2250) All Sp, Su, J untech techProrate 91 91 Startup Active Recovery Advantage Property Level 19 3 39 -26 property B Scharlachrot sends a chain out and captures the opponent. You can even use this while bound to a fulcrum. You can connect with it off the very end of a 5C. Excellent for really far confirms, a good way to stack on some easy damage.

Frevel

Madness Chain - Frenzy Frevel 214AB (Air O.K.)

Version Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level Ground 4775 All - 24+5 2×13,3×9,15 38+16 - B*22,D Air 4545 All - 2+5 2×13,3×9,15 43 - B*22,D Omega destroyer! If you do this in air, Schar will start this move in air, if you do it on the ground she'll teleport into the air then start this move. During that teleport she invulnerable, but you can't use it as a reversal because it will be stuffed easily before that. If you want to use this as an air combo ender, restrict your height a little but, then use it after a JE for the best effect. This tags on a nice chunk of damage. Damage will vary greatly as hitboxes are tied to the chains that...do not track the opponent and flail about of their own accord.

Critical Heart

Restriction Unleashed - War Chain Wolkenkratzer 222AB While 2+ fulcrums are on-screen

Version Damage Guard Cancel Startup Active Recovery Frame Adv Level Normal 12000 All - 0+1 - 21 - C Extend Force 17100 All - 0+1 - 21 - C After the input, chains run from one fulcrum to another. If the opponent is hit by the chains or the fulcrum itself, they will get caught up in Scharl's critical heart. While 2+ fulcrums are on-screen it's only startup 1 on the fulcrums, for the chain that goes between them you have to wait for the chain to travel to the spot. It goes from the first to the second to the third (if there is one) and if the travel distance is long it can become really slow. This CH's animation is long, giving you delicious effects from Arcanas like Wood and Plant. On the other side, the move's hitboxes is as thin as the chains look, so if you try to land this move from a bunch of A fulcrum, it will just whiff over character with low crouch animations like Fiona and Lieselotte and you'll just be sad.
