OverviewStrategyDataCombosReplays

Kula Diamond is a strawberry sorbet loving cybernetically modified human, crafted by the syndicate NESTS in order to exterminate K'. The results of such modifications do have their drawbacks, as she looks and behaves like a child, the cryokinesis she has acquired, allows her to instantly turn water molecules in the air into ice.
After the destruction of NESTS, she teamed up with K' and his allies. However, all of that came undone after a fight with K', causing her to run away from the group. All alone, she was snatched up by Krohnen and Ángel, where she was added to their team.

Gameplay Overview

Kula Diamond is a zoning and pressure character who wants to use her projectiles and powerful normals to keep opponents locked down.
Pros Cons
  • Diamond Breath is a far reaching projectile that can be hard to approach, and the C version can start combos.
  • Normals like 5B, 2C, and 2D among others give her a lot of reach and allow her to safely poke at opponents.
  • Kula can lock opponents down in blockstrings using her long reaching 2D, safe projectiles, and 22C setups.
  • Plenty of useful EX moves, like 214BD which is safe and has great use in combos, and 623AC which is a real reversal.
  • Low damage returns generally, and gets very little at all off of light starters without spending meter.
  • Has to choose between oki and damage in many combos, where others have both.
  • Cannot do a super into max super midscreen, limiting her 3+ bar damage if she doesn't have the corner.

  • Does not whiff on crouching opponents.

Kula jabs her hand out with some freezing ice on it. Great range, stops hops well, and actually does not lose to crouching unlike many other far 5A normals. It can also cancel, so it's nice to use as a fast counterpoke.

A far-reaching kick. Similar to far 5A in most ways, as it's also a good poke that can whiff punish well and doesn't whiff on crouchers.

  • Cancellable into any specials

Kula steps forward and hits with a big ball of ice. A bit slow on startup, but the forward movement allows it to hit outside of the range of 5A/5B and it can combo into more things than those can. More committal but higher reward neutral poke and pressure tool.

  • Cannot be cancelled at all outside of quick max and supers.

Kula leans back and kicks forward. Less range than her other normals, but makes for a great anti-air thanks to the lean back and high hitbox.

25 Mid command 4 3 7 +5 +3 - 30 60
  • Starts her Rush combo series

A quick jab. Tied with cl.C and 2B for her fastest normal, and chains into other normals and her rush so it's nice to press in a scramble. Worse at anti-hop since the hitbox is quite low, so try to space out to get far 5A.

Kula does a fast uppercut followed by a shoulder to the chest. Fast 2 hit heavy for hitconfirming, and the first hit reaches high enough and fast enough to be a close anti-air in the right situations.

  • Both hits cancellable

A kick up followed by an axe kick down covered in ice. Kula's highest damage close normal, but the very short range and tendency to fall out makes it only really good when you can get both hits.

70 Mid special 9 7 13 +1 -1 - 70 120

Kula freezes her hair and stabs it upwards. Another good anti-air, and used in conjunction with far 5D and her DP make her fairly good at stopping jumps. Cannot be cancelled however, so it doesn't do well in combos and punishes like some other 2Cs

90 Mid - 16 3 1 on ground Soft Knockdown - - 80 140

A spinning air kick. Hitbox doesn't actually start until the ice effect appears on her second leg, so the startup is quite slow. Hits all around her however, good at controlling air space and late hit jump mixups.

Throws

Ice Coffin (close, ←/→ + C)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
100 - - - - - -

Kula freezes the opponent in ice before blowing them up. Hard knockdown, they get thrown just a bit too far for a 22C meaty setup but you can still safely summon it if you want it to zone with or run forward for a meaty jump in or 2B.


Ice Sledge (close, ←/→ + C)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
100 - - - - - -

Kula leapfrogs over the opponent, tossing them far behind her. Thrown too far for any real oki, so unless you want the sideswap C throw is a bit better.

Command Moves

One Inch (6A)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
70 70 22 - - Crumple =6

A slow punch. On normal hit, it crumples the opponent and allows a combo after. If cancelled into, it becomes much faster and cancellable making it nice for combos.


Slider Shoot (3D)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
80 70 11 - - Knockdown -11~-2

Kula's slide. Nice as a fireball deterrent, goes pretty far and has good low profile. Remains the same when cancelled into, making for an easy combo ender.

Special Moves

Crow Bite (623A/C/AC)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

Kula's uppercut. Moves her very far forward, and has a nice hitbox on top of it. A version is faster and doesn't move as far forward, making it good for anti-air. C version is a reversal, moves very far forward so it's a bit awkward to anti-air with, and is also your main combo ender. EX version is higher damage and invincibility.


Diamond Breath (236A/C/AC)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

An icy breath. Good for zoning and pressure, as it has great range and is relatively safe especially when spaced out. Essentially a fireball. A version is fairly standard, causes a knockdown on hit and can be used in combos. C version is much slower, very plus, and leaves them standing with enough plus frames to get a combo off depending on the range. EX version has the same range and speed as A, but causes a crumple on hit.


Counter Shell (214A/C/AC)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

Reflector. Kula swipes her hand down, and on collision with a projectile, deletes it and replaces it with her own icy fireball. A version sees more use in combos as an alternative ender for a hard knockdown and 22C setup, C version is not a hard knockdown, EX gives a juggle on hit but is very hard to combo into in juggles.


Ray Spin (214B/D/BD)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

Spinning kicks. Main combo tool, as it gives good juggles and has 2 followups that allow some versatile combos. B version is part of her main BNB as it leaves them standing but it only hits once, D version hits twice and gives a good launch which makes it a bit better in the corner, and EX is a bit more of a utility as it's safer on block and the followups get some different abilities. EX is also fast enough to combo from lights.

Ray Spin (Stand) (> 6B)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

Kula kicks up a leg and shoots out an icy projectile similar to the one seen with a successful 214A reflect. Sees most use in corner combos, and while it can technically be used as a more traditional fireball to zone with, having to whiff an entire 214B before shooting makes it niche. Mostly, this is used in corner combos where the kick and fireball can both connect and allow for higher damage juggles. EX version is very fast, and leaves Kula plus on block.

Ray Spin (Sit) (> 6D)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

Kula slides forward with a move similar to her 3D. Launches on a grounded connect, which is important for her BNB combos, but will not connect on an airborne opponent making 6B a better followup in those situations. Very unsafe on block as well. EX version is able to connect with airborne opponents, and gives a good juggle when it does.


Falling Snowman (22A/C/AC)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
- - - - - - -

Kula summons a snowman in the sky, which hangs out for a bit before falling to the ground. Zoning and oki tool, nice to have it out to just keep the opponent moving around. After most 214A combo enders, you space perfectly for a 22C that hits meaty and allows you to run more pressure or combo if it hits. A version summons close to Kula, C version summons far, and EX will summon 2 snowmen: one directly above the opponent wherever they are, and one slightly behind them.

Super Special Moves

Diamond Edge (236236A/C/AC)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
180 0 19 - - Hard Knockdown -61

Kula shoots a giant spire of ice from the ground. Great anti-air, reversal, and juggle ender, but does do slightly less damage than her other super in grounded connects. Max version does 3 hits, more damage, and is faster.


Frozen Arena (236236B/D/BD)
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
200 0 14 - - Hard Knockdown -45

Kula slides forward and shoots out ice spikes behind her. Also has some invincibilty, so it may also be a good reversal. Does more damage than Diamond Edge, but has an issue with falling out of the hits during juggles. Max version has 3 hits and more damage, but is less safe. Max version also has issues with getting every hit, even on grounded connects: you have to be somewhat close for the first hit to connect.

Climax Super Special Moves

Glacier Ridge
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Adv Block Adv
446 0 12 - - Hard Knockdown -26

Kula sticks out her tongue and sends out a wave of ice spikes. On connect, she freezes the opponent in a giant block of ice before shattering it. Standard climax, big damage ender that you can use if you have the resources.
