I love the win screen

Yup, he has a lot of options to pull stuff from beyond his melee halberd skills, what with his talisman magic and his artificial fairies. He was also in that Ys vs Trails game iirc but i haven't played it, might be something there as well :shrug:. Good luck on whatever characters you do make.

Geis would definitely be a fun character! Lot to pull from there too between Ark of Napishtim and Ys 7. My next planned character isn't actually a Ys one, but Geis is definitely one worth considering!

*Jams out too hard to Genesis beyond the beginning instead of watching the trailer* Love me some Ys. People have already mentioned Adol as other character suggestions and you mentioned Hugo, I'd throw Geis in the suggestion ring as well if you make any more.

@Charcola Ah, good catch! I'll adjust that when I get the chance

A small issue I'd like to report, the default hitbox doesn't cover all of Yunica's head

@Reiga Stink may or may not be included with the alt
@Scruff0 Thanks for the feedback!
-Agreed on the Up-Tilt damage, I'll buff that when I have the time to!
-F-Tilt is meant to be slow as a trade off for its active frames/ability to charge it, but I'm not against making the hitbox bigger to emphasize this dynamic.
-Fair points on D-Strong, I didn't want to make the sweetspot feel too overbearing due to the angle it can hit recoveries at, but again I'm definitely not against buffing I if it doesn't feel good to use. Same goes for the sourspot since that's meant to have a pretty consistent combo w/ the second hit.
Again, thanks for the feedback and for checking out Yunica! Glad to hear you had fun using her.

Hi i like the character and I have some basic feedback because I enjoy using them.
I can't tell if these were deliberate design choices so it's your call if you want to change them:

Up tilt should do more damage for how slow it is. 3-4% is really low for an attack like this.
Ftilt is also really slow, even the uncharged version, considering the hitbox isn't big either.
Also down strong doesn't feel good to use because enemies can easily di/tech out of the sourspot before the 2nd attack lands.
Due to it's slow startup, I think you should be rewarded more for hitting downstrong, even if its just the sourspot.

Anyway thank you for the character, and reading my feedback falcom gaming

bless the mina iconoclasts alt 🙏

Thanks so much hyuponia!!

YS REP!!!!! this looks awesome and well done! congrats for the release!!

@Schlanvlcore Thank you! I always wanted some kind of Ys character in Smash, so making Yunica for Rivals was like fulfilling a long time dream of mine
@Gtype#0401 I think Hugo would be my next Ys character -- especially since he'd contrast well with Yunica's playstyle -- but Adol would definitely make for a fun character! It'd be interesting to hone down his moveset with how many games he's been in.

This is a great character, good to see some actual acknowledgement of the Y's franchise

yooo a YS character!? Adol when!?
