The Exile

Rushdown chain-combo swordfighterResource: ExileDifficulty

A fast sword whose Unique is Broken Wings, a three-part swing chain with an overhead, a mid, and a launching low. Every swing banks a Runic charge that she cashes on an empowered normal or a Runic Discharge wave. Pick her if you like running a high/low mix off every knockdown and routing long, multi-leg combos.

Startup counts the first active frame. On Block / On Hit are measured by running each move in the real sim against a standing dummy at the closest range it connects from, point blank where possible. Hover any value for details.

Main poke and the usual link after 5L. Plus on hit, even on block. With a Runic charge held it reaches noticeably further and hits harder, so a charged max-range 5M into 5H 214M is a real whiff punish.

Two jobs. With no chain open it's a plain jump-in that opens one, so a late j.U lands into 5U 6U 2U. When it continues a live chain (after 2H jc) it becomes the air finisher: relaunch plus hard knockdown, picked up by 5U/6U. Under Exile M and up its relaunch stays low, so its air dash-cancel can chase with j.M.

Special Moves

236

Runic Discharge236L236M236H236EX

Runic Discharge. A slash wave that spends every Runic charge, sized by how many you had (see Unique Mechanic). The strength sets the angle: 236L skims the floor as a low, 236M flies straight, 236H climbs as an anti-air. Only one wave can be out at a time. On block it's very minus at point blank, so fire it from range or as a combo cash-out (5U 6U 2U 236H spends three charges on the launched body).

The longest Exile at tier H, and its flash is a Wind Slash hit that launches and jump-cancels. Cancel the first 2U into 22EX instead of jumping: the flash launches into the same air leg, and the rest of the route gets the extra swing. This is her best 50-Style spend.
