Additional Notes:
- A lot of Hilde's moves have pushback on block to aid with their safety including majority of her Charge Moves.
- 3KA & 6AAA are good go-to moves from Sword Regalia
- FC3KBB & 6AAB are good go-to moves from Spear Regalia (FC3KBB is a great "hell sweep" low)
- 6BBB is a good way to enter Spear Regalia
- 6BBA is a good way to enter Sword Regalia
- A6, B4 & B6B are "Slide Inputs", requiring you to input the commands quickly and smoothly like a "slide"
- 1KK is a nice low-mid poke
- 9K can be used as a meaty, advantage-on-block overhead attack
- While at range, you're going to have to get used to using "A" & "K" attacks while charging "B"
- From mid range, likewise, you'll have to get used to using "B" & "K" while charging "A"
- Use C6A as a tracking mid poke
- Use C6B as a whiff punisher when available
- If C6B is not ready, use 6BB~ or 4B instead for instance
- In close range, stifle the opponent with A6, or knock them back with 2A+B, whilst using 44B to create space when needed
- If 214A+G smacks the opponent into a wall (usually when Hilde has her back to the wall), you can set up combos on them
- After you connect C6A on an opponent, you can follow up with the 2A+B shoulder for a splat knockdown and try to sneak in a 2K afterwards too
- The actual charge time for the charged UB's is around 30 seconds. I just charged for around 40 seconds to be safe in the video haha (could've sworn they were around 20 seconds in SCV...)
- The C4A unblockable is more preferable over C4B due to being a tracking UB that can trap opponents in a corner (C4A causes a mean wall splat!), though C4B does deal 140 damage...
- You'll have to adopt a ranged "turtle" (Defensive keepout pressure) playstyle if you'd want to implement the Charged UB's
