Hilde would be considered "low tier" in the fact that compared to other characters, it is harder to Win with her than it is other characters due to a lack of things that high tiers may have.
Such as: -
- Multi-function tools - She does have a Tech Jump, Tech crouch low attack, but not one that is easily thrown out.
- Excellent punishing options without meter. Her best punisher is her CE at i16. Failing that you have 66B BE for half bar at i18.
- A good interrupt. 2A and AA are not really that threatening, and 3[A]'s GI is awkward to use outside of strings.
- Threatening Low attacks - Her lows are solid, but not very threatening.
However, that's just what people say about her, not my personal opinion.
