Vatista

"Both our bodies are artificial. Therefore, I who is of the same existence will perform your last rites."

Height: 140 cm (70/49/69)
Weight: 32 kg
Birthday: ??/??
BloodType: ?
Ability: FLS of Servitude, "Restriction"
Weapon: Kouyoku "Nanaka"

An ancient living weapon that has the form of a human and is called Autonomic Nerve. She was one among the ones that were put to sleep in this land as the overseers of the Void and the Under Night since a time so long ago that it could be called an eternity.

Sensing the unnatural increase of In-Birth and sudden increase of EXS recently, she awakens from her long slumber. Driven by the program engraved in her, the awakened girl heads towards the "Abyss", the center of the Under Night.

Her purpose is the investigation and extermination of the cause that is eating away at the EXS. She recognizes both the Void and the In-Birth equally as enemies.

I was wondering if someone has translated any of this?

Someone translated all the character profiles on gamefaqs. Here's (http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/621199-/61869768) the link

[GreatOldOne]

Now if only there were some videos of her, or the other three unplayable characters.

Thanks.


Video would be nice. Hopefully soon.

[Amaterasu]

Gonna go ahead and call Vatista for the zoner of the game. She has a laser, some sort of energy ball special, and those red wings/blades remind me of the ones used by Lambda and Mu in BB. I'm gonna guess mid range/long range character.

[Thunderbolt]

Her similarities to both Lambda and Mu are the reason I will probably be playing her.

[akihikosfist]

I probabaly wont play as her due to me hating Lambda and Mu. But lets see what happens

[Katsuragi]

To each his own, I'm using her cuz she kawaii and shit

[swordiris]

I think Vatista is super cute and she looks a bit like Rachel.

Shes gonna be my main.

[Leviathan]

So can Vatista fly yet?

[Serph]

Vatistas movement is pretty limited because of the fact she doesn't have a run, but rather a small slide that similar to Lambda/Mu's backdash. She has several projectiles at her disposal and even has a DP which I was expecting. In a game where neutral is almost paramount, I wonder to see exactly how effective she will be.

[Kuro]

This game wouldn't feel complete without our mandatory loli. I'm not much of a zoner fan but she seems really fun and I'm considering her a sub character right after Yuzuriha. If everything about her looks well after some good footage lets all work together when we obtain the game for ourselves.

[Katsuragi]

Vatista doesn't sound very beginner friendly D: but I'll be sticking with her regardless. I do hope there's more Vatista play in the upcomming stream in 2 hours

[Leviathan]

I just want her to fly :(

[Bernkastel]

So the loli looks fun to play and I might check her out even though I don't like her design.

Footage from the Loketest. A Merkava and Orie video is also available if you search a little bit more.

Edit- Two videos of Vatista in action.

Indeed.

She looks nice so far. I'll likely try her first.

[Kuro]

If I'm looking at Vatista palette correctly in her match with Merkava, it resembles Inori from Guilty Crown. Red clothes, pink hair, and pink spikes over her shoulders. Do I need to post a picture to show the resemblance?

Now that you mention it, it does resemble Inori.

Maybe she'll get a Lambda/Nu colour palette aswell lol

Okay, seems like Vatista's movelist goes like this:

Lumen Stella ([4]6A/B/C) - shoots a projectile. The speed and the trajectory depends on the button pressed (with the options being slow+mid, fast+mid and fast+low). You can perform it in midair with the 236A/B/C command, with different trajectories. The EX version shoots a Dark Angel-like ball that floats forward, bouncing up and down.
Luber Angelus ([2]8A/B/C) - A Flash Kick-like move with the wing slashes. You can follow it up with additional attacks by pressing different buttons. The EX version makes her jump up and down a couple of times.
Redeus Fragmentum ([A]/[B]/[C] - Releases a hovering crystal that stays in place for as long as the button is held. Releasing the button explodes it; if you are hit before you release the button, the crystal disappears without doing anything. The position of the crystal depends on the button held. Can be performed in midair.
Racteus Orbis (41236D) - Infinite Worth, shoots a huge laser out of the symbol made with the wings. The start-up seems kinda fast.

Making the setup move a charge seems to be quite important.

[Bernkastel]

ooh So Vatista is a charge character, interesting.

I guess her Lumen Stella will be used more often in the air.

[Sahgren]

I think that'd depend on what the recovery of the midair version is and how much more area it covers than the ground version. If the midair version puts you into recovery until you hit the ground, I can just imagine people slipping under the fireball and picking up a free combo while Vatista is falling.

[TsukiBaka]

Why hasnt this game gotten a release date yet ;_;

[Thunderbolt]

Interesting. When I saw the flash kick I kinda had a feeling it would be a charge move.

For those who didn't witness Vatista flash kick or additional specials in combat. She lacks momentum in a way but have anyone noticed how cute she is after every projective she shoots? That little back flip of hers gets me every time. I'm not too fond of charge characters but if I can make an exception for Angelia (AH3) I can do the same for Vatista as well.

[Serph]

Im pretty excited to see upcoming Vatista play. The one who won the SBO tourney was a thrill to watch. I'm kinda iffy on those [6]4x inputs though. Never experienced reverse holding inputs before. But it'll be a nice change of pace to play a zoner for once

[Katsuragi]

Despite the first few sets, there's a lot of Vatista play here:
