Gameplay Overview
Normals
Standing
- st. A: Mature pokes out a special cancel-able quick shoulder height horizontal scratch. Good to use as anti-air against hops. Whiffs on some crouching opponents.
- st. B: Mature throws out a quick side kick. Good to use as a close ranged poke. Not cancel-able.
- st. C: This fast, wild slash moves Mature forward quite a bit. Not cancel-able.
- st. D: Use this inverted roundhouse kick is great to use as anti-air against hops and close ranged jumps. It's not cancel-able though.
Close
- cl. A: This quick elbow attack is special cancel-able & chains from her other standing & crouching light normals.
- cl. B: These two side kicks hits the opponent twice; the first hit is low, and the other hit is a mid. Easy to hit confirm into, special cancel-able & chains easily from cr. B, and cr. A.
- cl. C: A VERY fast special cancel-able uppercut slash that can be used as a quick close ranged punish & can hit opponents attempting to jump over you. Negative frames on block but has a good amount of push-back.
- cl. D: Mature throws out a pair of roundhouse kicks that are special cancel-able. Has more damage than cl. C, but not as fast.
Crouching
- cr. A: This is a crouching version of her st. A. Great to use as a close ranged poke, special cancel-able & can chain easily into itself, and crouching B.
- cr. B: This crouching light kick isn't special cancel-able but can chain easily into itself & her other standing & crouching light normals that are special cancel-able.
- cr. C: This special cancel-able slashing uppercut has a crazy amount of range and speed which makes it a great anti-air.
- cr. D: This sweep has a good amount of range & is special cancel-able on hit or if whiffed.
Jumping
- j. A: This jumping jab has a downward angle that makes it great to use as a jump-in attack.
- j. B: This jumping sidekick pokes out horizontally. Great to use as an air-to-air attack. Susceptible to low profile crouching anti-airs from the opponent if timed improperly & if used too often on grounded opponents.
- j. C: Best used as a jump-in attack but doesn't have a very low aim in it's horizontal range.
- j. D: This kick is similar to jump B, but has a higher angle that points diagonally upward slightly. Best used as an ground-to-air attack. Whiffs on crouching opponents.
Blowback
- st. CD: Mature whips out a slow roundhouse kick that wall bounces on hit. Can be whiff cancelled into her special moves.
- j. CD: This jumping kick points at a sharp downward angle. Good to use as an air-to-ground attack.

Deathrow - (qcb+A/C)
- This is the start of her rekka chain. She performs a 3 hit slashing uppercut that is super cancel-able on the last hit.

Metal Massacre - (qcb+K)
- Mature will run towards her opponent & perform a turning slash motion towards the opponent mid-section.
- The light kick (B) version will cause Mature to perform a extremely short dash into her slash motion. Slightly negative on block.

- Super cancel-able
EX: Fast start-up, not invincible, hits low, safe on block.
Ebony Tears - (qcf~hcb+A/C)
- Mature will reel backwards little & then swipe her hands downwards to create a rather large projectile that travels forward.
- The light punch (A) version travels slow enough for Mature to walk behind and follow
- The heavy punch (C) version travels faster than the light punch version. Mature is able to move when the projectile travels over a 3/4ths screen distance.
EX: The projectile travels at a moderate speed, hitting the opponent 3 times for a soft knockdown. If blocked, the projectile will still make contact with the opponent for 3 hits. Mature can immediately move after the projectile is released.
Super Special Moves

Combos
- (qcb+A/C)x3 combos into any super has to be super canceled before the last hit (9th hit). The last hit of the third qcb+A/C pops opponents up. The difference between canceling on hit 7 or 8 is 10 dmg.
- qcb+ACx5 combos require you delay the start of the special so that the fifth hit of the special won't whiff. If it hits, you can follow up with qcb+B.
- qcb+B after qcb+BD needs to be delayed slightly so the qcb+B will hit. Otherwise, it will whiff.
- Outside of the corner, qcb+BD side switches.
- Qcb+D, cr.A is a 4-frame link. If qcb+D hits, you can combo into cr.A into special.
- You CAN advance cancel her supers from anywhere. The most optimal is qcb~hcf+B/D, qcfx2+AC
