Height: 5’5.5” (SOR 3)
Weight: ??? (SOR 3)

Special Abilities: She's great with thrusting weapons and can really chain combos together.
Character Type: She's a balanced fighter, but really shines with her speed, aerial attacks, ability to shut down enemy advances, and breaking shields.

Strongest Techniques for SOR4 Blaze:

Hishousouzan: This is fantastic for stopping certain enemy attacks dead in their tracks.
Rekkaken: If Hishousouzan can't handle it, Rekkaken usually can.
Basic Combo into Hishousouzan (or any Special): Super useful against bosses.
Basic Combo into Rekkaken (into Shin Kikou Shou): Another great boss-beater combo.
Jump Kick: Seriously, this move has high priority and can interrupt a ton of enemy attacks.
Back Attack: Works wonders on enemies like Signals and Jays.
Air Combo: Even stronger than her jump kick, and great for dealing with tough enemies like Vial Queens, Jays, and Riot Cops.
