* '''Great Hitconfirms''': Vanessa's low pushback on lights and great command normal make her hitconfirms almost impossible to drop from up close, and give her great time to block confirm into 214A/C. At range, her 5B and the immense speed of her EX machine gun punch allow her to hitconfirm off 2 lights.

Vanessa lives a double life between being a housewife and a mercenary agent. She is highly skilled in boxing and is able to KO her opponents with ease. Her husband and kid don't know anything about her secret activities.
Jump: 40f Hop: 32f Backdash: 21f Run Speed Ranking: 2
Vanessa is a highly mobile rushdown character with impressive combo damage, crazy neutral, and suffocating pressure. The nature of her pushback and framedata make it so that her pressure can rarely be punished. Her unique tools let her find a situation where anything can be useful, and she truly seems like she has no weakness. That is, until she's on defense. Vanessa's defense is terrible. Between having only one real reversal (that costs at least one bar and has a terrible hitbox) and terrible abare, Vanessa finds herself having even more disadvantages against KoF's already great systemic offense, meaning you either do a wild option to get out, or stay locked in and hope for the best. Vanessa's midrange also falters, with a lack of confirms and a lack of good ground buttons in general preventing her from doing much. Regardless, Vanessa's offense, combo game, and neutral are strong enough to make up for that. If you love to roll your opponents and don't care about having bad defense, this character is for you.
Vanessa is a momentum-based offensive beast who makes up for her lack of mixups with her fantastic pressure and strong combo damage.
Pros
Cons
Powerful, Explosive Neutral: Vanessa has immense mobility, some of the best jump and crouch buttons in the game, and can completely ignore the existence of projectiles. Though she is very stubby, her movement and jumping buttons make up for that in spades.
Safejumps: Almost every combo Vanessa does ends in a safejump and she even gets a safejump off her sweep and her overhead. Be afraid, be very afraid.
Ridiculous Offense...: Between stancels, her speed and framedata, vision gimmicks, great lights and frametraps from them, and her fantastic EX moves, Vanessa's pressure is incredible. While her mixups are quite limited, her pressure makes up for that by allowing her to make an opponent flinch with ease. With many frame traps, high guard damage, ambiguous punish windows and a supermassive toolkit, Vanessa's offense is nigh insurmountable without meter to defend with, and even still with.
Great Hitconfirms: Vanessa's low pushback on lights and great command normal make her hitconfirms almost impossible to drop from up close, and give her great time to block confirm into 214A/C. At range, her 5B and the immense speed of her EX machine gun punch allow her to hitconfirm off 2 lights.
Strong Corner Carry: Vanessa has a decent amount of combo options which all give her fullscreen corner carry without sacrificing oki.
Incredible Meter Gain: Vanessa's overall low meter spend on combos and high generation means she can put her meter to use where it's needed - to make her pressure and mobility as potent as it is.
...And Horrible Defense: Stubby abare, inconsistent hop check, and expensive reversals. Vanessa essentially has almost nothing other than pure system mechanics to help her defensively, which makes defending as her as hard as it is to defend against her.
Incredibly Punishing to Play: Vanessa's recovery on many of her moves is so long that it's very often that dropping a combo, pressure, punish, or confirm will almost certainly be punished, oftentimes resulting in you getting hit by a full combo for something that seemed completely random (such as an air reset). Coupled with difficult execution and high APM, being 'asleep' when playing Vanessa is a surefire way to lose.
Meter Reliance: Vanessa relies on meter not mainly for damage, but for continued pressure. Without meter, Vanessa finds herself without many ways to open up her opponents or keep them blocking and as such has to be more creative with her stubby moveset.
Stubby: With the exception of her sweeps and jumping buttons, Vanessa's buttons are very small and very linear, forcing her to be cautious and pigeon-holed when it comes to neutral, abare, and even sometimes pressure. This can cause her to sometimes whiff 4/6A in the opponent's face, which can be reaction punished. Additionally, her stand heavies are exquisitely terrible, and none of her buttons are good at pre-emptively stuffing hops.

Another two hit button. Just like stand C, the second punch reaches further only because Vanessa herself moves forward as well. Despite that, it's still a very short ranged button with little space control.
Unlike her other stand buttons it doesn't whiff against crouchers. However, it's a very slow button that even whiffs against hops which also leaves her wide open for a free punish since she can't whiff cancel it.
Another very bad button. You're going to see this accidentally sometimes when going for optimal combos.

Other than being safe on block by itself there's little reason to use this over cl.D as it has more pushback and deals less damage. Mostly useful for wakeup throw OS'ing.
Weird proximity range makes this button a lot more risky to use as an anti hop tool than it would seem. Very inconsistent, stick to 2C for that.

Your primary anti-air tool. If timed well, it will beat most jump-ins. Even crossups.
On counterhit against hops it will combo into Parrying Puncher (623A/C) or Champion Puncher (236236P).
The anti air portion of the hitbox takes a bit to come out and this normal is overall small. However, it is also incredibly active, so 2C into late canceled puncher vision is incredibly valuable for neutral.

By far one of your best buttons in neutral. It has the furthest range of any of her normals while also moving her forward.
While it's very punishable on block, immediately cancelling it into either Puncher Weaving (214P) or Puncher Vision Backwards (214K) on block makes it safe. You also get a safejump on hit with a stancel (simply hh forward as soon as possible, delay is needed for EX).
It's not whiff-cancellable, however. Don't be predictable with it, otherwise your opponent will simply hop over it and get a full punish on you.

An okay air button. Her fastest air normal which is good for jump-ins but nothing else. Is severely outclassed by pretty much every other j.A in the game.

Horrible range and meh active frames on hop makes this quite mediocre when done from one, though still required in pressure situations due to j.D's pushback issues. However, it's a nice close range full jump normal as its activity and hitstun are favorable. Use this only for safejumps and pressure.

Raw hit on grounded opponent results in a crumple which can't be extended by normals.
Air hit results in wall bounce.

Your other best button in neutral aside from crouch D. Compared to most of her buttons and especially her air buttons, j.CD has an amazing range and is vital for her pressure game since the dropkick is angled downwards.
On counterhit you can follow up with Dash Puncher ([4]6A) where the ender varies depending on if you're midscreen on in the corner.

If used during strings it instead becomes the sole reason why Vanessa's hitconfirm game is great. The duration of this move is long enough for you to tell if they blocked it or not. If it is, disengage with 214K or make yourself safe with 214P. If it hits, you get a full combo.
This normal can get you killed at times due to whiffing.:
If you want to frametrap meterlessly FROM this, you will have to do 214A4C after the first hit, as the second hit has too much pushback for any frametrap to exist. To frametrap into this normal simply delay cancel from lights.
Be careful when cancelling cl.C or cl.D into this from a jump-in. The pushback on heavy normals is far too great and you will end up whiffing this quite often, leaving you very, very, very punishable.
Tends to whiff a lot at midrange connection with 2A as well. Try not to take too many risks whiff punishing with this.
Delaying this will allow you to frametrap, but also increase the range and situations at which this normal will whiff. Do not jump in and do two lights if planning on frametrapping with this. Simply settle for one light. If not, you can lose the game.

A great low profile sweep. Can be used to slide under high pokes or fireballs. But unlike crouch D it's not special cancellable, so make sure to space it properly so it becomes safe.
Ground fireballs like Iori's 236A/C or Terry's 236A/C will beat it.

Main combo tool. Mashing punches during the duration of the move adds hits and damage, which should be done always. Unsafe but the pushback can make it an awkward punish.

Anti-zoning and combo tool. Vanessa lowers her body to the ground and travels forward before rising with an uppercut. Low profiles only projectiles while travelling. This is your main combo starter and zoner killer.
The A version travels almost half of the screen. Sees a lot of use in combos. Generally unsafe on block, but can be hard to punish at some spacings.
The C version travels almost the entire length of the screen. Moves much faster, but the slower startup makes it easier to interrupt with strikes or throws.
The EX version travels around half of the screen and hits the opponent twice before ending in an uppercut. Used for extending combos after [4]6A. If blocked, Vanessa does not perform the follow up punches and is left more unsafe.

A hook with guard point property. A version can negate projectiles, C version can reflect projectiles.
C version is a decent anti-air. Key point on decent, as its active frames and recovery leave a lot to be desired.
EX version causes a ground bounce which is useful as a combo extension. It also does massive guard damage. Hop C/D > cl.D (2 hits) > 6A (1 hit) > 623AC does 460 guard damage and will crush someone with roughly 1/2 of their guard bar left. Vanessa is then plus enough to dash in for a cl.D. However, there is a gap of several frames between 6A (1 hit) > 623AC which allows reversal opportunities.
If you use these during Punching Weaving (214P), they no longer have guard point or anti-projectile properties. They will also recover quicker (reflected in [] in the frame data).

Some low profile properties similar to [4]6A/C
Completely fireball invulnerable when done from Puncher Vision.
Core to her movement as it cancels into a multitude of followups, allowing her to move around the screen quickly while threatening other options. Can also be used for some blockstring gimmicks, but will always leave you very unsafe. EX version is fantastic for pressure as it recovers so fast you are no longer unsafe. The followups from the EX versions will also frametrap and/or blockstring from many of your moves, so it's of utmost importance to learn how to use this.

Backward command dash
Used for retreating, and for dash movement in conjunction with the forward dash. The 6A and 6C followups off of backward command dash move very far forward, allowing her to do some shenanigans similar to that of Slayer's backstep. EX sees less use compared to the forward version, but is still a very fast and safe runaway option if needed.

Vanessa ducks down slightly and starts swaying.
useful to cancel certain things and be much safer on block.
EX version maintains a low profile, is fully projectile invulnerable and much faster to recover. It usually leaves you plus on block on cancel and can low profile many buttons but there are other options with this same ability and higher reward. It is the fastest of all these however.
By holding down the button, you can maintain the stance.
Holding A gives access to C versions and holding C to A. Holding either on 214AC gives you access to Ex versions of :
6A/C Gives Dash puncher ([4]6A or [4]6C) correlating to button pressed.
4A/C Gives Parrying Puncher (623A or 623C) correlating to button pressed.
The Puncher Vision follow-ups are irrelevant of what button you're holding and you don't have access to EX Puncher Vision.

High reward but low range dash followup. Staple in corner BNBs, and frametraps from stand CD 236B. EX version is fantastic for pressure as you can create many high guard damage blockstring setups due to its blistering speed. Can cancel into 214B/D if blocked to retreat, or 214A/C for safety. EX version can only cancel into normal stancels on hit, another half bar will need to be spent on block.

Low reward but high range followup. Doesn't see much use oustide of combos cause of its incredibly slow speed. EX version is useful midscreen but much more useful in pressure due to its blockstun, chip damage, guard damage, and frame trapping ability. Can cancel into 214B/D and 214A/C as well, but cancelling into another 236B/D on hit gets her very close quickly for great okizeme. As per usual, EX version is not cancelable into normal stancels on block. Canceling the backward vision version into weaving 4A/C is your main corner combo ender.

Much easier combo ender with lower damage, and the is one of your two only true reversals. Normal version grants a safejump with 5CD 236D > full jump.

It's a Climax, and also Vanessa's second true reversal. Not much to say about this one aside of it being a decent meter dump finisher.
