Patchouli is a zoner, through and through, who can use a wide assortment of projectiles derived from different elements to keep her opponents at bay. She has a projectile for just about everything – even long distance combos! However, she is physically weak, with slow movement speed, light weight and subpar framedata in close quarters, so you can expect to lose stocks quickly if you allow yourself to get rushed down.
Tips:
-Patchouli has a fifth special move! Press parry and shield at the same time to use it. Also remember it can be jump cancelled! This move is very important for keeping foes away!
-Patchouli has an accelerating ‘floaty’ double jump, like Absa, so you can hold jump to keep rising while doing an attack.
-Forward Air and Back Air shoot projectiles that do ‘polite’ hitstun – meaning they only do hitstun to foes already in hitstun.
-Up Special makes you immune to projectiles. You can do a short version of Up Special by pressing the button lightly (useful if you want to quickly use the wind).
-Dash Attack can be jump cancelled at the end if it hits.
-The distance of Down Special can be adjusted by holding forward / back at the start of the move.
Also has support for the Dracula Boss Stage (by Harbige12) and MT. Dedede stadium (by Smiley_The_Stickman).
No, Down Air doesn’t spike.
Please remember to post feedback on balance and any bugs so that I can make improvements.
This is a derivative work of Touhou Project. Patchouli Knowledge and Touhou belong to Team Shanghai Alice / ZUN. Sprites belong to Twilight Frontier and ZUN (but the stage was drawn by myself).
