The eldress of Kylos, which is a village located in the mountains of
Altago. She asked if she could travel with Adol and his companions
after her mysterious power of windsight granted her a vision of the
calamity that would consume the land of Altago.
Happy Chaos, Deadshot, MorriDoom, Nu-13, Peacock, O. Sagat, Steve... Every fighting game franchise had at least one extremely overpowered zoner in their roster, with zoning so powerful they sometimes invalidate entire characters. Ys vs. Trails unfortunately also has one of these beasts, in the form of Mishera. Her zoning is the uncontested best in the game. In fact, it is so good that approaching her as a slow character is nigh impossible. On top of that, she also has access to the strongest defensive Skill in the entire game: Calm Gust. While it does basically no damage, it pushes her opponents extremely far away from her, allowing her to continue her zoning. It also has some armor, which means that it'll also reset neutral at close range. Mishera's offense is no slouch either, thanks to Cloudburst. Its stun properties gives her some decent combos, although they deal low damage. While punishes hits hard on her, landing such a punish on a skilled Mishera is very difficult.
If you enjoy cheap zoning that'll get your opponents very salty, or are an agent of chaos, Mishera is right up your alley. Similar to:
Playstyle
Mishera is a zoning monster with good mobility and the best defensive tools in the game.
Strengths
Weaknesses
Outstanding Zoning: Mishera's toolkit is filled with excellent zoning-oriented attacks and Skills.
Excellent Defense: Calm Gust is the best defensive Skill in the game, allowing her to reset zoning no matter where her opponent is.
Great Pressure: Mishera's multi-hit Skills allows her to easily snowball her way to victory by breaking her opponents' guard.
Good Mobility: Even without any accessories, Mishera's mobility stats are pretty high.
Immunity to Flash Guard: Thanks to her projectile-only moveset, Mishera is immune to Flash Guard punishes.
Low Stats: Like all ranged characters, Mishera's stats are overall pretty low, resulting in low damage output and very low survivability.
Expensive Skills Mishera's Skills are overall the most expensive in the game. As such, she needs to be careful about when to use them.

Mishera's only melee attack, and an excellent one at that. On top of being ridiculously active, Mishera can move around during those frames, making it much safer than it initially looks. It's also extremely fast, coming out on frame 2, making it a very good poke. While she can combo out of it, her options are fairly limited.
While she can usually only cancel her dashing j.A into grounded Skills, she can cancel them into aerial ones if she performs a frame perfect cancel. This is only really useful for comboing into aerial Cloudburst.
Mishera can start moving quickly after the move comes out

Extremely wide projectile that covers a lot of ground. It works as Mishera's main combo starter, since opponents will be stunned for longer than usual on hit. It can also be jump and walk cancelled very early into the animation, allowing some otherwise impossible combos. However, it has a very long cooldown, so Mishera can usually only fit one Cloudburst per combo.
The air version is usually better at zoning, due to coming out 2 frames earlier. It also covers lots of ground, due to Mishera sending the projectiles in a cross-shaped pattern.

Shoots 10 orbs that directly homes onto the opponent. Each orb has a chance of inflicting Poison.
The easiest way to "guarantee" most projectiles to combo is to use it right after Mishera's EX. Doing this will result in excellent damage, while also having a fairly high chance of inflicting Poison for additional DoT damage.

Since the final hit remains active even when Mishera becomes actionable, only the first active frame will be displayed
Very versatile EXTRA Skill, due to the fact that it remains active while Mishera is actionable. This lets her easily combo off of it, while also being a powerful tool in neutral. Unfortunately, its short duration makes it quite bad during EX trades.
The opponent can still cast Skills or use their assist during the freeze

S1, d.A > j.S3 > j.S2 (700 damage)
Basic, cheap combo off of Cloudburst at close range. Also works with air Cloudburst.
d.A > j.S1, j.A > j.S3 > j.S2 (800 damage)
Basic route from a dashing air normal. Only works at close-ish range, since this requires a frame perfect cancel.
S1 wc > [A] > S5, S3 (~1.7k damage)
More advanced combo, which costs more SP in exchange for doubled damage. Backing off and firing a Charge Attack instead of going for Storm Gust is also a valid option.
S1 wc > [A] > EX > S6 (~2.8k damage)
Sample EX combo. Only works at point blank.
S1 (wc), d.A > EX > S6 (~2.5k damage)
EX combo that works at further range. While the first hit on EX won't combo, the draw-in effect makes it impossible to escape.
