| intro = {{SUBPAGENAME}} is a mid-range specialist who has some of the best range in the entire game.

Not only that, but she herself also has a very threatening approach game with moves like j.CD, j.C, and Hook Shot, making her a tricky character to defend against. Moves like these and her 2C sweep ensure that her opponents are never comfortable on wakeup, even when she's far away.
However, this offset by Whip being one of the riskiest characters in the entire game to play. Much of her kit is very easily punishable - whether on block or on whiff - and can make the difference between her staying on the offense... or eating a 70% damage combo for her troubles. Defensively speaking, she has next to no options. Boomerang Shot, while a decent anti-air, is '''VERY''' unsafe on Block and especially on whiff, meaning you have to use 2D or 8C if you want to anti-air the opponent and stay safe. Her stance cancels are also borderline useless since they recover so slow you can easily hit her out of them when you're up close.
Whip can be very rewarding, but equally demanding to play. Playing as Whip requires more spatial awareness than most, if not all, other characters in the game. Most of her moves can go from being safe to unsafe just from bad spacing alone. However, the inverse also applies: Whip's moveset will reward you for your good spacing by making some moves much safer than their frame data numbers would have you think. Making the wrong move as Whip can be punishing due to her relatively slow frame data, and most of her moveset requires that you are very deliberate with your movement and actions.
Overall while Whip may take more than average care to play properly, she can be very tricky to deal with and will reward people who are willing to put in the lab time.
If you are looking for a character that can control a large amount of space and harass opponents from mid-range, Whip is here for you as long as you are willing to be extra conscious about your spacing and remain selective about when you commit to risky options, such as Boomerang Shot.
Whip's best position is likely mid position, as she generally needs meter to make her mix-ups threatening, but she doesn't deal the explosive damage that makes the anchor position noteworthy.
Whip works in every position on a team, but arguably does best in the second slot. Whip does not ask for too much meter to run her offense, and her combos are very meter-efficient. However, starting with at least 1 bar allows her access to EX Hook Shot as an approach option, and her 1-bar combos can deal some serious damage.

* '''Strong Air Presence''': Whip has a strong air-to-air game with normals like 8C and 8D. Her j.C is also an amazing cross-up and her j.CD is one of the better jump-ins in the game.
* '''Strong Air Presence''': The sky is yours. Neutral Jump C (also referred to as 8C) is a Swiss army knife in Whip's tool kit ([[The_King_of_Fighters_XV/Whip#Neutral_Jump_C|see the notes on that move here]]) that allows her to control a huge amount of air space, and any attempt to jump in on Whip can be easily shut down by a Boomerang Shot.
* '''Very Long Range''': As you might imagine, Voodoo grants Whip plenty of range to keep the opponent at bay with. Whether you use moves like Strength Shot, Whip Shot (6A), or Talon Shot (3A), Whip can be a very tricky character to approach. Even her 2B, a non-Voodoo normal, is quite large.
* '''Very Long Range''': Whip has a whip (shocker!), which gives her all the range of a whip. 2C and 8C control a huge amount of space, and most of Whip's other normals are capable of stopping approaches fairly well.
* '''Strong Defense''': Normals like f.5C and especially 2C which can make approaching her quite scary. Jumping in is also a poor idea since she has 2D, 8C, and Boomerang Shot (41236P) to snuff you out.
* '''Oppressive oki''': Whip does not let opponents wakeup without taking some sort of guess, even at mid range. She has multiple ways of hitting overhead or low from far away, and her ability to ambiguously cross up is outstanding.
* '''Solid Approach''': Hook Shot and j.CD are liable to keep you on your toes when fighting against her. Especially since the former can also be performed with 2147P to get the drop at any given time without having to jump first.
* '''Good mixups''': Strength Shot is a built-in 50/50, and just being at mid-range distance will make your opponents feel uneasy. Keep your opponent guessing from mid-range and you will find that most characters will not have the range to contest Whip without taking guesses on their approach options.
* '''Jump C''': The best hop cross up in the game, and could very well justify the entire character.
* '''Slippery movement''': Whip is harder to catch than most, with a slightly floaty jump and access to a double jump. On top of these, moves like j.CD ensure that approaching Whip is dangerous, even if she is retreating. Whip likes staying in her mid-range sweet spot, and she can maintain it well with smart movement. She can also hop over any character in the game while they are standing, even huge ones like King of Dinosaurs.
| cons=
| cons=
* '''Very Unsafe''': Whip is an ''extremely'' risky character to play. Many of her moves leave her at such a disadvantage that you have to be on your toes to even mix the opponent up from afar unless you want to be the one getting mixed up instead.
* '''High Commitment''': Whip requires that every movement and action you take is extremely deliberate. When taking guesses as Whip, her toolkit ensures that the odds are usually in your favor. However, wrong or even straight up bad guesses can be especially painful, such as an opponent jumping over a poorly spaced 2C.
* '''Risky Defense''': While Whip can keep you out all day, once you get up close, she may as well write her will and testament right then and there. She has virtually zero safe (and meterless) reversals, her normals are on the slower side as a consequence of her range, and even if she does spend meter to get you off of her, it's extremely risky to do so.
* '''Massive Hurtboxes''': Most of Whip's attacks that utilize her whip have huge hitboxes. However, they also have huge hurtboxes that can make trading with certain particularly powerful normals a common occurrence.
* '''Poor Meterless Damage''': Whip's combo damage without meter isn't much to write home about, making her more reliant on meter than average.
* '''Awkward Lights''': Whip does not really chain her light normals like most characters can. The only light normal she can do that with is cl.B, which has a proximity requirement. While this means Whip effectively circumvents the fact 2B was universally nerfed to 15 damage, it can make light confirms somewhat awkward.
* '''Massive Hurtboxes''': Like Falke in ''Street Fighter V'', so too does Voodoo have a hurtbox that, if you hit Whip as she's using Voodoo to attack you, you'll end up doing damage to her instead. Most especially with any of her normals or both Command Moves that have her using Voodoo.
* '''Moderately slow frame data''': Some of Whip's moves suffer from slow frame data, further contributing to the need for proper spacing in order to stay safe. It isn't all bad, but when you want your 4-frame Close C and you accidentally get a 15-frame Far C instead, it can hurt.
* '''Awkward Lights''': Whip can't really chain her light normals like most characters can. The only light normal she can do that with is cl.B, which has a proximity requirement. This can make light confirms somewhat awkward.

Unique 2B with interesting utility applications.
Has longer range and slower startup compared to most other 2Bs in the game
Your go-to Quick Max route: 2B > 3A > Quick Max
Whip stays low to the ground and pivots her back foot to the front. This moves her collision box forward just enough that you can use 2B to duck under an opponent’s jump-in, cross over to the other side and start a combo with close C once the opponent lands. Example here, using Krohnen as a target.

Another one of Whip’s most important tools
Outstanding air-to-ground with overwhelmingly powerful ability to ambiguously cross-up
Very large hitbox
Also comes with a very large hurtbox that extends pretty far below Whip, careful using this with a projectile below you
After a blocked j.CD, you may attempt to cross with this move by using a hyper hop C while you’re standing close to the opponent. Keep in mind Whip’s jump arcs are floatier than normal, which allows her to hop over most opponents even if they’re standing (May not work on large opponents; exhaustive list needed)

Yet another one of Whip’s most important mixup and spacing tools
Whip jumps up and swings Voodoo in a downward arc over a large range.
Her neutral jump C is one of the best air-to-air normals in the game with outstanding range and a large hitbox
Also works as great air-to-ground if you use it on the way down in your jump arc
Also works as a jump-in combo starter
Also works as decent anti-hop due to its ability to hit enemies at a lower elevation than Whip
Again, mind the extended hurtbox
Has an odd deadzone just before the tip of its hitbox. It is hard to describe, and you will rarely ever encounter it, but it happens sometimes. Could be patched in a future update.

First and last hits are special cancelable
Any hit can be cancelled into a Quick Max or super but it is not recommended that you do either
Always combos into EX Strength Shot (63214AC)
If the opponent blocks this, you can probably stop on hits 2-4 and hope the opponent doesn't notice that you stopped early instead of going for all 5 hits. Going for all 5 hits on block puts you at very high risk of being punished by a guard cancel roll. The second and fourth hits are the “safest” on block (you are still very negative).

Command normal with a big hitbox and relatively short startup for its range
You can combo into this after 2B
Excellent pushback on block makes this a good move for creating space, allowing you to return to your midrange gameplan
The pushback is reduced on hit
Generally, 2B > 3A is your Quick Max string. Use this to close out rounds
3A > 3A is not at all a true combo or blockstring, but it is decent at stopping whatever approach attempt the opponent makes after the first 3A

Whip swings Voodoo twice in an upward arc. Whip's anti-air and reversal tool.
High risk, high reward. Does solid damage and is a fantastic, consistent anti-air. However, it is extremely unsafe if it doesn’t hit.
A version is slightly faster with upper body invulnerability. It also deals less damage than the C version
C and AC versions have full body invulnerability.
A & C versions will switch sides, throwing the opponent behind Whip. The EX version will keep the opponent in front of Whip and deal more damage.
The first hit is super cancellable
Has a deadzone directly above Whip. Use 2D to cover this deadzone. Otherwise, this is your go-to for anti-air.
After reflecting a projectile, be ready to do the half circle motion as your opponent is likely to try and jump over your reflect.
Don’t forget that one of your supers is activated with a 236236P input; be careful not to spam too many quick half circle motions before pressing A/C, or you might get a super instead of the Boomerang Shot.

Whip holds Voodoo in the Strength Shot Stance. You may hold the button to hold the stance, delaying the attack while allowing you to slowly walk back and forth indefinitely. She can cancel the stance with D or let go of the held button to attack. Holding the button and standing still for too long will automatically cancel the stance.
In this version, Whip hits twice, the second hit being an overhead. The overhead causes hard knockdown. Will hit airborne opponents with a different animation and different spacing after the animation, but it is still a hard knockdown.
Only A version can be held and cancelled. The EX version (AC) will strike as soon as the input takes place and cannot be cancelled or delayed.
The EX Strength shot has two versions. Each can be used one time during a combo, and you can combo the first directly into the second:
•The first version is used against grounded opponents. After whipping the opponent twice, Whip slides in and kicks the opponent up into the air.
•The second version is used against airborne opponents. Whip grabs the opponent out of the air, pulls them in and kicks them back up in the same trajectory as the first version. This is guaranteed to connect after the fifth hit of 6A.
•You can follow these up with a 2D (usually with 2D > Boomerang Shot > super [optional]) but keep in mind that 2D will only hit once during a combo

She can cancel the stance with D or let go of the held button to attack. Holding the button and standing still for too long will automatically cancel the stance.
When released, Whip swings Voodoo once to tug an opponent from a very long distance, making an opponent spin if hit. Positive on block and VERY (+12) positive on hit.
This version does the least damage but has the longest range of any version of Strength Shot
Use to frame trap opponents, especially with your 4 frame Close C
Use this to combo into normals (2C or Close C) or even specials as it is +12 on hit!
Will not hit airborne opponents, no matter how close to the ground they are. You can still catch an opponent in pre-jump, making this an excellent meaty tool.
Meaty setup: After landing a 2C, enter and cancel out of any Strength Shot stance and then use Strength Shot B

The final hit of this move is super cancellable. Use Sonic Slaughter (236236A/C/AC) to combo as it hits on the ground (OTG).
This move has medium range between Superior (A) and Strength (B) but does a little less damage than superior.

Once Whip lets go of the Strength Shot Stance, Whip is (almost) immediately able to jump, move, block, or attack.
The shortest amount of time this can take is 25f from the start of the initial Strength Shot input.
Opponents may jump or roll in when they see Whip enter her Strength Shot Stance. Use this to bait and punish their reactions with a Boomerang Shot (63214C), a different Strength Shot, a throw or Whip's normals

Whip slings Voodoo up into the air and tugs herself up into a aerial spin.
In simple terms, this is your double jump; it has no hitbox and deals no damage.
You can tiger knee this to perform the Hook Shot immediately after jumping (2147A/C/AC)
Can do any jump normal after the aerial spin and Whip can cancel into this move from j.A (only once before hitting the ground)
A version moves forward a very short distance and will practically never crossup
C version moves forward around the same distance as a forward hop with high potential to crossup
AC version will move Whip directly in front of an opponent anywhere on the screen. It also has full invulnerability for the first 10 frames, which can serve as an excellent bait tool for reversals such as Krohnen’s 623A/C (but generally not something like a more traditional DP that would send the opponent airborne)
Holding the stick towards the opponent during the AC version will make Whip cross an opponent up. Requires sufficient air clearance and therefore will not crossup if EX Hook Shot is activated at the lowest point of a jump or from full screen.
Whip is in counterhit state until she lands after using Hook Shot.
If performed after a crossup, the A and C versions will not correct your orientation toward the opponent. The EX version, however, will make you face the opponent and you can even cross back over into the side you originally jumped from by holding your stick toward the opponent.

Whip rears Voodoo back and swings it in a downward strike. Hits overhead and grants a hard knockdown.
This move will also reflect projectiles, though not like most other reflects.
On reflect, destroys the projectile and creates a 1-hit wind ball projectile that slowly travels slightly further than half of the screen before disappearing. Destroys ALL projectiles, even a super projectile (however, a super projectile will also destroy the wind ball)
BD version is faster and creates a 3-hit projectile which travels full screen at a slightly faster pace. Has the durability of a MAX super projectile.
Can reflect regular projectiles, EX projectiles, and supers.
Use as an alternative overhead to Strength Shot A for mixups
Be careful to not accidentally input a backdash or Strength Shot B when trying to reflect a projectile.

Whip's Climax - She soars into the air with Voodoo to hit an opponent with a rising knee, constricts the opponent midair, and slams them back to the ground for a 4-hit attack.
Whip is invulnerable on start-up all the way to the top of the screen and can be used as a very slow reversal.
Despite having a lot more hits in the combo, max canceling from MAX YGW (236236BD) is about the same as MAX Sonic Slaughter (236236AC).
