Flandre Scarlet



Flandre Scarlet is the EX Stage boss of Touhou 6, Embodiment Of Scarlet Devil (EOSD), which then she led to several appearences in differet games then later in Gensokyo arena. She has great damage in most her attacks, and fairly decent mobility, as well as having both ranged and close-ranged attacks. She can come in handy if you want to run around and dealing huge damage to anyone in your way. She may look like she has no weakness, but can be taken by most characters with good offence abilities like Yukari Yakumo.

If you want to see the in-depth guide on how to use her, see here.

Abilities

 * Lævateinn - The player holds a gigantic Lævateinn, which when swing can deal 50 damage to up-close opponents, after 2 swings she will leap up during this attack, and cause a long-distance thin beam to form, becoming more larger the farther it goes, dealing the same damage as a single swing. Good as a finisher. This attack can also help with mobility, as each swing gives the player a temporary speed boost. If you enequip then equip after the uppercut might cause it to not create the beam, but instead be stunned for a few seconds.


 * Cadadioptridic - The player sends 5 very long distance rows of danmaku orbs, that come in 4 each row, with one big orb at the end. They deal 10 damage apart, and deal 40 if a full row hits, but if they are used up-close, they are likely to one-tap someone. It's technically your only ranged move (other then Lævateinn's beam), and try to use it as a head start move as well.


 * And then there will be none? - The player turns into a blue danmaku orb, and beams through the arena at very fast speeds, sending 3 long lines of blue danmaku orbs behind them that each deal 15 damage, that then quickly dissapear after around 3 seconds. Can be combined with Cadadioptridic for extra area coverage. Try to use it after the Lævateinn stun, just in case if your vulnerable.


 * Four of a Kind - The player quickly sends a clone in front of them that goes a long distance, each swinging a Lævateinn differently before quickly despawning. Deals 50 damage and can be used when using the Lævateinn. The clone can sometimes fling you forward after you use "And then there will be none?" move.

Removed/reworked abilities

 * Maze of love - The player stays in place for a bit, sending out tall empty circles, which could be evaded by either distancing yourself from the user, or going through the small gaps between the maze. This attack also stayed going when the user died, leaving it as a decent way to get back at someone for killing you at the time.




 * Lævateinn - In the past, this ability was only able to cause the player to leap and create a straight wave of flames. This dealt good damage in it's time
