The King of Fighters XIII/Elisabeth Branctorche
Gameplay Overview
Elisabeth is a powerhouse character that revolves around punishing, counters, and juggles. She is a very scary character to jump-in against because of her Grand Rafale. She can safely build meter and nullify projectiles with Etincelles and Noble Blanc. She can avoid and fake out opponents with her Reverie-Souhaiter/Prier but also counter them to set-up BnBs/combos with her Reverie-jere. She can mix up in the corner with Mistral command grab and can carry/juggle the opponent to the corner with her Coup de Veine. Her HD combos consists of her doing her dp attack and Etincelles. Her play-style will fit anyone looking for a seek and destroy character, or just a great anchor.

Special Attacks
Etincelles = qcf+P - Light swipe attack, the weak version comes out fairly quick so it can be safely be used to build meter when the opponent is on the other side of the screen or on the ground, the strong version stays out a bit longer but at the same time has a slower start-up so it may be difficult to combo into, it can also nullify projectiles whether they're on the ground or in the air, all versions knockdown standing opponents, both the weak and strong versions are super cancel-able on the 2nd hit
(EX) = qcf+AC - Does more hits and comes out just as fast as the weak version
- Super Cancellable
- Hit Detection: High
- Damage: 70/55x2/60x3
Coup De Veine = dp+P - A very fast light uppercut that juggles the opponent, weak version goes about half screen but can be chained together twice, strong version goes farther and can be chained to the weak version also has start-up invincibility, both version can be drive/super canceled on hit
(EX) = dp+AC - Has complete invincibility during the dash, goes pass projectiles and when it hits it launches the opponent into the air vertically
- Drive/Super Cancellable
- Hit Detection: High
- Damage: 60/80
Reverie-souhaiter = qcf+K - Forward dash, has upper body invincibility
- Cancellable
Reverie-prier = qcb+K - Backward dash, has lower body invincibility
- Cancellable
Reverie-jere = qcb+P - Instant counter teleport that punishes normals to EX attacks, weak version works against air attacks although it's not fast enough to follow-up with a punish so it's more like a quick getaway move or reversal, strong version works against low/mid attacks and the recovery is good enough to follow-up with a punish or a throws
(EX) = qcb+AC - Instant counter that works on high/mid/low attacks, when successfully used it temporarily locks the opponent in hit-stun long enough for you to start a combo and punish accordingly, also when used on an air opponent it automatically pulls them to the ground
- Cancellable
- Hit Detection: Close High/Mid/Low on hit
Mistral = hcb f+P (close) - A light pillar instant command grab that launches the opponent into the air then they plummet to the ground
(EX) = hcb f+AC - Launches the opponent higher into the air which allows you to combo afterward
- Hit Detection: Close
- Damage: 150/100
Desperation Moves
Noble Blanc = qcfx2+P - Elisabeth steps forward and makes a large light energy ball, nullifies all projectiles thrown at it, good for interrupting jump-ins and attacks their attack
(EX) = qcfx2+AC - The light energy ball leaves her hand and hits the opponent 12 times, it also carries them to the other side of the screen whether they're on the ground or in the air
- Hit Detection: High
- Damage: 18x10/20x14+60
Grand Rafale = qcf hcb+P - Light uppercut to a light palm attack in the air, obscenely fast, it's so fast that it easily connects after the majority of air-to-air attacks along with her weak Coup de Veine, can be max-canceled on hit when in HD mode
- Max Cancellable
- Hit Detection: High
- Damage: 40+10x13+30
Neomax
Etoile Filanto = qcb hcf+BD - Instant counter to full screen light wave attack, when used as a standalone move it only activates as a counter, when max canceled it completely bypasses the counter aspect

- Damage: 25x19

- When Jump A, Jump D, or Jump CD hit successfully air-to-air you can follow with the qcf hcb+P DM
