Morrigan Memos
- Against tall crouchers - BI, VI, AN, JE, AU
- st.lp, RENDA st.lp xx mp-Soul Fist
- Against tall crouchers - BI, VI, AN, JE, AU
- Corner air-reset walk-through - st.lp LINK cr.lk, st.mk xx DI
- Character highlights from Twitter
- Because Morrigan's pursuit & vertical dash have the same animation, you can check her meter to determine which options was used for okizeme
- Some oddities occur with Morrigan & her turn around animation. Shadow Blade recover backwards = forced turn around animation. In this scenario;
- Darkness = lp lp 4 lk hp on frame 1-2 after SB
- 2-8 jet pack can be backwards but 66 is never backwards
- After a late-pursuit (whiff), 66 can be backwards
- While in backwards 66, j.mk will not connect against the opponent. :(
- https://twitter.com/VMP_KyleW/status/973790568403931136
- Turn-Around Priority x (JetPack or Shadow Blade)
- The first 3f of Finishing Shower are throw invulnerable. You can use it to beat out command throws like Brunchie
- ARK-Morrigan's execution for DI combos is below
- Morrigan's walk speed is very quick (#3 in the game), rely on it to close gaps
- When the opponent Throw-Tech's Morrigan's air-throw or Ground Throw, they do not reduce the damage taken. Morrigan's air throw only connects equal or above heights.
- Connecting Darkness Illusion while Morrigan is in the air is disadvantageous. Morrigan loses okizeme
- Morrigan can Option-select Vector Drain with cl.hp by inputting 632,4+HP
- Morrigan can Option-select HP-Throw x Darkness - 6+HP~Darkness
- Gauge management is crucial as Morrigan has numerous effective meter dependent options.
- Use kara-HK with Soul Fist & Shadow Blade at neutral to gain meter.
- The earliest possible dashing overhead attacks are
- d.lp 14f active
- d.mk 14f active
- d.hp 16f active
- Morrigan is the only character who's half-circle command has a higher input priority to the DP-command. Because of this, Morrigan can do a weird Option-Select with 63214,3+P. If the opponent jumps, Shadow Blade will be executed. This is very effective when used defensively. ES-commands are also accepted.
- Shadow Blade recovers backwards, so completing a reversal requires special input commands to split the turn-around frames.
- Morrigan can Option Select ES-Vector Drain with 63214,MP+HP. if the opponent jumps, close-st.hp will come.
- To counterattack Bulleta's Cool Hunting, Morrigan can use Cryptic Needle, Valkyrie Turn or Finishing Shower.
- There is no height restriction on Air Soul Fist. Unfortunately, Morrigan can land-cancel before the active frames
- Morrigan is very thin & her air hit-box leans forward. Morrigan can force herself into the corner
- Falling J.hk or J.mk
- Dash, Delay, J.mk
- Morrigan has (3) Special Win Poses.s
- Full breakdown
- Black Cat
- White Doll levitating
- White doll idle
- While in Dark Force, Soul Fist & Es-Soul Fist will always juggle if connected.

- you can hide an LP input in a 7-jump startup
- Completing an air chain then going into Darkness can be useful to beat the opponents chicken-block
- Similar to, but nowhere as effective as Lilith, Morrigan can frame-trap a Soul Fist & LINK off the trade
- Against the (5) short crouchers (MO, LI, BU, QB, GA), Morrigan can micro-dash j.mk for a quick cross-up
- Advancing Guard x Darkness Illusion
- Vector Drain places the opponent into a "Backwards knockdown"
- Opponents ground roll inputs are reversed
- Opponent has forced turn around frames on wake-up
- Opponent cannot wake-up & reversal
- Hit count scaling meanes you are best off with a 2-hit combo into Darkness (no light attacks) for maximum Red Damage.
- Soul Fist & Finishing Shower while in Dark Force do not accrue damage scaling
- Close-HP can force a whiff & punish against select moves
- Ground Throw & Air-Throw do not recover white life. This is very noticeable with Morrigan because her total duration is long on ground K-Throw & Air P-Throw.
- Morrigan can use cornered short vertical Jet-pack to setup a backwards J.mk. This is a forbidden Tech-Hit such that if the opponent does a Tech-Hit Morrigan is pulled in.
- Easiest against wide opponents - LE GA QB
- Corner Darkness combo x pursuit will only whiff against forward rolls. Here are some forward roll setups against Lei-Lei
- Okizeme with 66, land, pursuit whiff can make an effective land-low setup while covering back rolls.
- Morrigan's taunt has low invulnerable frames
- Morrigan can delay Soul Fist (using another projectile) to create combos
- ES-Soul_Fist (1) Hit allows Cryptic Needle to combo in the air. Cryptic Needle has a presumed juggle limit of (2)
- 1998 Combo Video
- Advanced & difficult Okizeme options
- Effective Oki against Q-Bee Desu
- Good example of tools to manage corner Ireppa
- Cr.hk can low-profile & be used to beat most guard cancels

- Activation Condition Examples
- Dark Force x Juggle State Bug x Darkness Illusion Juggle
- To connect with a Darkness Illusion while both characters are airborne & in a DF x Juggle-State places the opponent in a standing position floating in the are. if the opponent does not enter a neutral-state, they remain in the air. Completing a REVERSAL attack is the easiest way to setup this Float-State
- HP-Throw Tech (Ground & Air) = Unscaled Damage
- Valkyrie Turn Unload Sprite Bug
- Unblock ES-Guard Cancel Frames
- See The first chart here - Morrigan is at frames 5-7
- Dark Force x Darkness trading with a disjointed projectile = Forced Float state
- Darkness Illusion x impossible drop-out combo using Chuukadaan
- Darkness Illusion x Impossible drop-out combo using Big-Trap (Banana)
- Morrigan's taunt raises her Y-axis such that counter-throws are significantly elevated
- Morrigan's Cryptic-Needle recovery stalls when certain projectiles are activated on the same frame.
