Command list

Basic moves

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	300
	Fast, high poke that gives Izayoi access to all of her cancels.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	640
	While 5B is a bit on the slow side, it makes up for it in range. This move is capable of tagging most characters from round starting positions. Generally used in conjunction with 6C and Sonic Saber for mid/long-range pressure, at max range it is only confirmable into Crusade Seraphim β. In normal mode, Izayoi can’t get anything more, but in Gain Art even a max range 5B can be converted into a full combo.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	710
	5C has relatively short range, especially when compared to 5B. Oftentimes, A normals are canceled into C normals immediately to remedy the issue where any additional gatlings would push the opponent out of range.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(GA)	710
	Quick, solid normal. Extremely important in Gain Art combos, commonly being used to combo into 2C (GA) and Crusade Seraphim γ. Also cancelable into 6B, whereas normal mode 5C is not.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	300
	Low hitting kick with a solid amount of range. A bit on the slow side, but ends with frame advantage. Cancelable into throw.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	480
	Mainly used in pressure for its cancel options

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	780
	Similar to 5C, with slightly longer range. Has a higher base damage, but lacks jump cancelability making it better suited for confirms on grounded opponents.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(GA)	710*2
	This move is a vital part of Izayoi’s more damaging combos. It prorates extremely well (once for two hits!) and has an incredibly high base damage. Mid combo, inflicts a huge amount of hitstun and untechable allowing combos into things with long startup, such as D Sonic Saber. In blockstrings, it vacuums the opponent towards Izayoi and leaves her at significant frame advantage.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	620
	A guard point move that guards up to (but not including) the first active frame. As such, it is possible to trade with this move. On hit, the opponent gets launched in a very horizontal arc, severely limiting combo options on counterhit. Easily punishable on block. Guards against everything except for lows, throws, and unblockable attacks.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	720
	Izayoi’s only standing overhead, comboable with an RC, Trans-AM follow up attack, or on counterhit. When feinted, 6B becomes foot attribute invincible for slightly longer. Total duration of feint is 35 frames. Used at the end of Gain Art combos that don’t use Weaving Zero stocks on Strike Fall. Sends opponent downwards on hit, causing emergency tech.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	760
	Izayoi’s go to punish for easily punishable/whiffed moves. Having both fatal counter potential and great proration values, this move as a starter almost always leads into big damage.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(GA)	710
	Mid blockstring, the step portion covers a lot of space making it useful for keeping pressure at midrange. The kick has a very vertical hitbox, allowing it to stop jump out attempts and put Izayoi in an advantageous position. Commonly used at the end of combos due to its high amount of untechable time.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	720
	Has extremely short range, but is jump cancelable on hit and block. Floats on grounded hit.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(GA)	880
	A solid punishing tool, covering a lot of space. Fatal counters, and has one of the better proration values of Izayoi’s Gain Art moves.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(in the air)	300
	A solid air to air normal. Hits very far compared to most j.A’s, and can be confirmed relatively easily in Gain Art.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(in the air)	400
	Izayoi’s go-to dash in overhead, being only slightly slower than j.A while having a better combo starter rating. Can reverse gatling into j.A, which can then gatling back into j.B for longer air strings. Has a hitbox near the feet, giving it limited crossup capability.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(in the air)	760
	Big air normal. Has a lot of vertical range, hitting both above and below Izayoi. Sends opponent downwards on hit, often leading to relaunch combos or oki.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(GA) (in the air)	520
	In Gain Art, Izayoi’s j.C changes to a more combo/blockstring oriented normal, having an extremely low, wide hitbox (perfect for crossups) and gaining jump cancel properties.

Throws

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	0, 0, 1500
	Izayoi’s grab. Wallbounces, being comboable even midscreen. Normally special cancelable on the third hit, but interestingly enough the second hit can be rapid canceled to provide a much better starter rating and proration. Because the basic followup includes a teleport (which moves forward a preset distance), comboing into and at the corner requires adjustments. Likewise, a forward throw from the corner (with Izayoi facing away from it) requires adjustments as well.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	0, 0, 1500
	Similar to forward throw, except Izayoi sideswaps before causing the wallbounce. Like her forward grab, can be RC’d on the second hit. Corner spacing considerations also apply.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(in the air)	0*3, 1400
	Straightforward air grab. There is a consistent ground bounce to work with every time regardless of height when grabbed, which makes follow up combos a breeze. Unlike Izayoi’s other grabs, air grab cannot be canceled early in any way.

Counter Assault

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	0	0
	Counter Assault with a great hitbox. Launches upwards on hit. Extremely difficult to make whiff while attacking.

Crush Trigger

Input	Damage	Heat gain
	1000
	A Crush Trigger that has relatively short range, but comes with a special effect: On max charge, it becomes unblockable. Stagger on normal hit, knockdown on air hit.

Drive

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
/	スカーレットジャスティス Sukāretto Jasutisu			Scarlet Justice			--	--
	When going into Scarlet Justice, Izayoi can shift into another mode called Gain Art Mode that will increase speed and power up all of her special moves. Hitting D when in this mode will revert Izayoi back to normal.

Input	Damage	Heat gain
(in the air)	--	--
	Usable multiple times within a single jump, and halts air momentum until the mode change is complete, allowing you to alter your approach timing.

Overdrive

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	フリーダムジャスティス Furīdamu Jasutisu			Freedom Justice			--	--
	The Weaving Zero Gauge regenerates immediately.

Exceed Accel

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
(during Overdrive)	バンシィランサー Banshī Ransā			Banshee Lancer			2000 4000 (Active Flow)
	Izayoi captures the opponent then commands her floating swords to slash them repeatedly. Finishes with a cross energy blast from the floating swords above the opponent.

Special moves

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
/	ソニックセイバー Sonikku Seibā			Sonic Saber			500 (Ver. A), 700, 200*4 (Ver. D), 700, 200*8 (Ver. D (Overdrive))	??
	A high-speed projectile attack that you can use to zone your opponent. In Gain Art Mode, Sonic Saber fires more projectiles than usual, and can cause the opponent to be stunned when hit.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
/ (in the air)	空気 ソニックセイバー Kuchū Sonikku Seibā			Air Sonic Saber			500 (Ver. A), 700, 200*4 (Ver. D), 700, 200*8 (Ver. D (Overdrive)
	Cancelable into D Mirage Thruster on hit, block, or whiff (Ver. A). Consumes 1 Weaving Zero stock (Ver. D/Overdrive)

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	クルセイドセラフィムα Kuruseido Serafimu α			Crusade Seraphim α			700 (Normal/Gain Art)
	A great anti-air move with very fast startup and head attribute invincibility. Crusade Seraphim α has huge range, and can be confirmed on counterhit, so its very useful for building Weaving Zero stocks (in both neutral and combos). “Unsafe” on block, but teleport capability makes punishing extremely difficult. Pressing D on hit will perform Strike Fall at the cost of a Weaving Zero stock.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	クルセイドセラフィムβ Kuruseido Serafimu β			Crusade Seraphim β			700
	Crusade Seraphim β is your staple far range combo ender. It doesn’t knockdown, but it combos off of max range 5B while generating Weaving Zero stocks. Also works well as a midrange frame trap/pressure tool. In Gain Art, all confirms into Crusade Seraphim β can turn into full combos thanks to Valkyrie Astraea, which is done by pressing 6D during Crusade Seraphim β (even during startup!) at the cost of a Weaving Zero stock. β is “punishable” on block, but can cancel into teleports.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	クルセイドセラフィムγ Kuruseido Serafimu γ			Crusade Seraphim γ			700
	Crusade Seraphim γ has similar use to β. Mostly restricted to blockstrings and combos, it plays an important part in both. In normal mode, it paves the way for 6 to 8 stock generating combos, while in Gain Art it serves as a combo extension. On counterhit, it pops the opponent up and leaves them in a comboable knockdown. The issue with comboing into Crusade Seraphim γ is that it only connects after C normals, which essentially means only close confirms can go into γ. Like the others in its family, it is unsafe on block but has teleport cancel options. Also, much like β, γ can be canceled into Valkyrie Astraea the same ways while in Gain Art.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
Crusade Seraphim β/γ ~	ワルキューレアストレア Warukyūre Asutorea			Valkyrie Astraea			900
	Usable only in Gain Art, Valkyrie Astraea is a kind of “extension” to Crusade Seraphim β and γ. Unlike a normal “extension”, it’s actually possible to do Astraea before either attack connects. Naturally, this also means that you can cancel into Valkyrie Astraea on whiff. On block or hit, it can be canceled into teleports not unlike the Crusade Seraphim series. Astraea’s usage is usually limited to combos, due to the stock cost and frame disadvantage, but when used properly, it can turn any far range confirm into a full combo and is the centerpiece of a majority of Gain Art routes. In Overdrive, the knockback (on hit) is greatly reduced to allow combos that would normally only be possible in the corner to work anywhere.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
Crusade Seraphim (Hold) ~	構え解除 Kamae Kaijo			Stance Cancel (CS)			--	--
	Stance Cancel (Crusade Seraphim) ends up with different total durations based on the move you use, due to the varying cancel windows and total duration of cancel.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	イージスブレイド Ījisu Bureido			Aegis Blade			700 (Normal/Gain Art)
	Aegis Blade covers a large vertical area, and has very fast head attribute invincibility, making it an effective anti air. On counterhit, opponents are launched straight up and cannot tech until they hit the ground, allowing for easy 8 stock combos anywhere! The hitbox for this move extends very close to the ground, so it can be used to OTG and catch rolls. However, much like the Crusade Seraphim moves it is unsafe on block, but can cancel into teleports. Also carries a large amount of untechable time, being useful in both Normal mode and Gain Art combos. In Gain Art, pressing D during Aegis Blade will perform Strike Fall.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
Aegis Blade (Hold) ~	構え解除 Kamae Kaijo			Stance Cancel (AB)			--	--
	Stance Cancel for Aegis Blade. Has a much longer total duration than other stance cancels, making its only practical use to cancel an attempted Aegis Blade.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
(in the air)	ノワールエッジ Nowāru Ejji			Noir Edge			700
	This move primarily serves as an important combo part for Gain Art. Noir Edge is Izayoi’s primary air combo ender knocking the opponent far ahead. In Gain Art, links into Strike Fall at the cost of one Weaving Zero stock. Combos with repeated Noir Edges are also used to regulate the opponents height and set up extensions after Strike Fall. It also finds usage in mixups, serving as an instant overhead in both Normal and Gain Art mode. When performing the move, Izayoi stops in place, making it work as an overhead while both rising and falling. However, it is unsafe on block in either case.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
C.Seraphim α/A.Blade/N.Edge ~	ストライクフォール Sutoraiku Fōru			Strike Fall			700
	Izayoi’s staple combo ender. Doable only in Gain Art, Strike Fall serves as a follow up to Crusade Seraphim α, Aegis Blade, and Noir Edge. It is only possible to do Strike Fall on hit, so you can option select your confirms into Strike Fall and commit to another cancel option on block or whiff. On hit, has an enormous amount of untechable time, usually leading into some kind of workable knockdown. For high hitting Strike Falls, Izayoi can link into 5A, 5C, or Justice Phorizor for a combo extension.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
// / (in the air)	ミラージュスラスター Mirāju Surasutā			Mirage Thruster			--	--
	Izayoi teleports a preset distance to a location based on whichever button you use to activate the move. A teleports in place, B teleports forwards and C teleports backwards. The A, B, and C teleports are doable in both Normal mode and Gain Art. The D version of the teleport is doable only in Gain Art and requires 2 Weaving Zero stocks. However, it makes up for it by tracking opponents (teleports behind opponent, doesn’t matter if in corner or in air) while being able to whiff cancel special moves (i.e. Justice Phorizor). On hit or block, D teleport only requires one Weaving Zero stock. However, certain moves require two stocks regardless of if they connect or not (All variants of Sonic Saber and Justice Phorizor).

Distortion Drives

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	ジャスティスフォライザー Jasutisu Foraizā			Justice Phorizor			??	??
	A high-speed thrust attack with a fairly long reach. During Overdrive, it provides more damage and longer reach.

Input	Japanese name			English name			Damage	Heat gain
	スレイヴァートランザム Sureivā Toranzamu			Slaver Trans-Am			??	??
	Izayoi summons two bits that float behind her and attack with her. When the gauge runs out, the bits disappear (the gauge remains even when she is being hit).

Astral Heat

Input	Japanese name			English name			English localization			Damage	Heat gain
	ジャッジオブディスティニー Jajji obu Disutinī			Judge of Destiny			Justice of Destiny			Death	??
	The start-up is very similar to Tsubaki’s as Izayoi changes form slightly and dashes towards the opponent. Upon contact, an anime style cutscene will begin with Izayoi chanting while in the sky, and she morphs her javelin into a larger shape. The javelin launches like an aircraft and flies directly into the opponent.
