I like Phase-4's design. She requires commitment and can be punished hard for misuse. I wish there were more characters like her and less like Momiji, Rachel, GenFu, Jann Lee, etc.
Yeah she's good, but you'll definitely need to take some time with this character. Twice as unsafe as the majority of the cast (but it doesn't really mean anything if she can massacre). Her lows are not that good, no parries, & mixups aren't great, but has great guaranteed setups & situations.
Her neutral game is ass compared to Kasumi's. Phase-4 is pretty much "Teleport, or Die!" However, when you actually do launch your opponent, shit is getting fucked up!
Yeah it is. A lot of the stuff she's forced to commit to on block. On hit though, she's a beast. Definitely a high risk vs reward character though. Definitely a hit-miss type.
Phase-4 really needs the ability to teleport on block with certain strings such as 66K & 3P for example. 66PPP+K can only get you so far. She's forced to commit to too much from neutral due to the limited amount of safe options. So not only is she high execution but she's pretty much the least safe character in the game.
It's going to have to be someone who can execute to show how good she is. Otherwise, you're going to see a lot of downplaying of her. You're already seeing a lot of post complaining about how difficult she is.
