Thank you for this guide. Got this game for free with PS Plus, fell in love with Vatista. She is my first charge character ever.

[@freddychin5278]

[@dramatheurgist]

Thank you so much for this guide. Really helpful and on point.

[@marrowyoutube]

is it still helpful and on point

[@GonFreeccs123]

Awesome video thanks for the tips! I'm coming from playing Cody in sf5 so the diamond charge isn't too hard to get used to. Although the up and forward charges are gonna be tricky lol

[@sebastienfixary1442]

Hello ! Thanks for the video, very nice and instructive. May you detail me what are Vatistas options afeter the 2Crystal is set ? What can we do on Oki to mix them up ?

[@Geinonenffx]

after A Drill into 2orb, doing forward jump into falling j.A j82B/2C is a good option. Then it's up to opponent if he will adjust with backteching and that kind of stuff. So, After 2orb, forward jump j.A into either j82B or 2C is pretty normal one

[@Tokaji1703]

Great guide thanks!

[@thelaughingdragon32]

This still works for uni 2 right?

[@rhanke5673]

vatista is the one character i have an excuse for never converting off counter hits

[@mistersandman94]

I would add when you play her your pad/stick should never be 5 ever so she is always chargeing. She has no 6b or 6c moves so you can keep holding 6 then end with a Lazer. Useally 5c is a launcher so keep holding 7/9 right after 5c will auto jump cancel then you can be charged for [2]a/b

[@schmoopDJ]

very helpful thank u

[@solluxcaptor3104]

These fucking combos are driving me insane

[@BigBoyFargo]

I'm having trouble setting up diamonds, I suppose I just don't know how exactly I should be setting them up from the basic 2A>2C>2B. I play on a Xbox 360 controller with X = A, Y = B, and B = C. Is this a bad setup for Vatista or is it something I'll just have to burn into muscle memory?

[@Geinonenffx]

With a pad it might be a little difficult.. There are players that have binded some moves to the shoulder buttons. That way you can still do combos with your thumb, while simultaneously holding a crystal with your index finger. You could also try to hold the controller with the "Claw grip", which is kinda like using an arcade stick layout for your buttons in right hand(having all the fingers free for pressing buttons), + having an analog/d-pad in the left hand for directions. Both works equally well, so feel free to try out which feels more comfortable to you.

[@craigduff7013]

Excellent tutorial, thanks

[@randowl404]

Wait what vatista cant be counter hitted?

[@OtakuFan1311]

Even if I spam her beam commands, I have to hold down 6/4 for 60m.seconds+ until anything works with like..10% success rate. I'm using WASD and I'm beginning to think it isn't a good scheme. Also, what is the command for Drill??? It doesn't make sense to me. )':

[@arishkhan5918]

You think you're having a bad time buddy? Pfft... TRY COMING FROM BLAZBLUE CROSSTAG BATTLE... I was REALLY good with Vatista and now I need to relearn her... (Sighs). I can't do any of my signature moves anymore and that makes me feel sad... WELP TIME TO GET MY BUTT KICKED ONLINE TRYING TO RELEARN MY MAIN!!!

[@-shockwu-1698]

When did 02 from kirby 64 become a loli?

[@YaneSatsuki]

forsome reason i cant do the 2C ...... in j or cant do the lazer either =. = what ever i do it only diamond come out = =

[@artorias416]

so cute

[@miacorn1924]

uh sorry i just played this game for about 1 or 2 days how do you press (2)8a or something like that? i mean what do the numbers mean?

[@bigcheese6855]

mia corn you hold the stick in the 2 position (straight down) for around half/three-quarters a second, then push the stick in the 8 position (straight up) and push the corresponding button at the same time

[@miacorn1924]

@@bigcheese6855 wow you really help me !! Thank you~

[@LoftOfTheUniverse]

Oh no, charge character? I can't play them well

[@soulself7248]

Are there any bad matchups for Vatista, if so, what are they and how can you overcome them? I see a lot of Vatista plays struggling with either Hilda, Gordeau, or Merkava.

[@Geinonenffx]

Vatista doesnt really have any noticeable 4:6 match ups, but against hilda she can have problems. Instead of zoning/keepaway playstyle, you are forced to play very aggressively which can be really stressful. Against Merkava she actually does really well compared to other characters, because she has got good options against Merkavas fly and reversal game in general. Gordeau is very powerful at certain ranges, but with smart shielding and well placed projectiles it is not that bad. In general Vatista is very solid and can be played in many different ways, so some playstyles might benefit more in other match ups.

[@soulself7248]

Oh I see. Thanks!

[@OmegaTaishu]

Thank you VERY much for this

[@sleepless.tv_games2471]

Absolutely wrong about her C ball, you can follow it as a guard tool just like the A ball, and if it hits their guard you can safely grab them to get good damage on them.

[@helmetguyADSEA]

I would love to fight ya

[@viennasavage9110]

yeah except for the fact that all her specials are useless and leave you vunerable for 4 seconds so you may as well just spam

[@jgrom6621]

You're a fucking scrub lol

[@godispainful1093]

He or she didn't even say how to do the moves

[@angelwater8987]

I foken hate charge characters.

[@charlescaulkins8306]

Ugh, why did you have to talk in Street Fighter lingo...?

[@TheEpicPancake]

Because despite what they want you to think, an invincible reversal charged with 2 and ending with 8X is pretty much flash kick no matter how you turn it.
