Viola General Discussion / Q&A

So I actually love the :3::3::B:, :4::4::A::BE:, :2::B+K::BE: etc. combo, but does anyone have any tips for landing :3::3::B: (or :(B):)? It always seems like I can only get :3::B: off. I suppose by stepping and inputting it as :2::2::3::B:?
 
You have to wait for the 2nd hit, as soon as the 2nd hit connects, 6B+K 6B 3B you dont need to mash it, or be super fast, just make sure you dont interrupt 44A before the 2nd hit

I just use it as a sidestep move. But be careful because regular 33B is unsafe. However it also has tech crouch properties so if you are pro and can react to a high and throw out this move it could work. But I usually finish the combo with 66B, 666A+B B or 1A+B for a tech trap.
 
3B would be the best option. It has more potential damage and it's safer that 1B (It's still unsafe nonetheless.)
 
It depends on the situation, btw 1B has more damage potential, because we're talking about tech crouches, you should be getting CH
 
The since 1B stuns, the damage gets scaled a lot. And 3B also tech crouches, albeit slightly.
 
Not loads, Ill test it out later on
the 3b tech crouch is so minimal unless you know moves inside out, its awkward for newcomers
 
Is a tech crouch the same thing as a high crush? Srry for asking I'm just used to different terms.
 
What causes 44A BE to sometimes not throw the orb attack out? Is it something specific that can be avoided or is it just the game being randomly stupid?

So is it just me, or does Viola get more raged quits than any other character? This includes opponent Violas...

I think it is because the length of her combos drive people crazy, just sitting there watching as your character hangs helplessly in the air is frustrating as hell. Though to be honest I think she and Asta are probably tied for inducing rage quits.

I also want to know the answer to this question.

I think as well as the combos, it's that she plays differently compared to the rest of the cast and she can easily destroy people who don't know the matchup. Her constant mixups and pressure can be very frustrating and mentally exhausting to play against.

My own style - the much-hated "all-throws-all-the-time" - certainly doesn't help matters.
 
Hey guys, Im a new Viola and I was wonder and Hoping if anyone would help me out maybe give me some pointers and tips to be very good with the character. I was introduced to the game by the game center I go to called Havenshine Game Center ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/HavenshineGameCenter/177878522380800/?notif_t=group_activity).
