Overview
Lidia is classified as stance, mixup. Their toolkit includes wall-finish tools. Their fastest standing launcher comes out in 14 frames.
Strengths
- Fast i14 standing launcher for whiff punishment
- Multiple plus-on-block mids for safe pressure
Weaknesses
- No CH-launch low - lows are for chip and frames only
- No dedicated homing move - vulnerable to side-step
- No power crush listed in the data
Game Plan
- Hold neutral with
f,F+2as your quick mid check. - Whiff-punish with
ws3(i14 launcher). - On block, recheck pressure with
b+1(+2 on block). - Mix in
db+3low to keep them honest. - Bait jabs with
CAT.4for a low CH launch.
Defense
- Parry:
uf+1(Gyre) catches a high or mid attack and turns the round around. - Panic launcher:
uf+4(low crush, launches on hit) hops over jabs and lows when you read a string. - While-standing punisher:
ws3ducks highs and punishes from crouch. - Heat burst (
2+3) is +1 on block and resets pressure if you have heat available.
Punish guide
How to beat them. The Frame Data tab in Punish mode shows per-move counter hints.
- Block low and wait. Lidia’s safe lows give frames but no launch; their real threat is the mid/low mix.
- Step their linear strings - many extension routes are step-killable.
- The Frame Data tab in Punish mode highlights moves you can launch-punish on block.
