a lot of your matches will probably end up being very close calls due to the way HP is sorta used as a resource, here's the ones i can name off the top of my head


Lunatic gains meter crazy fast

I think they might take more dmg than other characters but idk lmao

Commitment has armor and fires a wave if the distance slider is set to 0

using Act triggers all of the bloody slashes like the ones External Bleeding leaves behind (im just going to call these lacerations from now on)

Burst/Burst Cancel are replaced with Blood Burst/Blood Burst EX, which activates Hysteria, during which:

• You gain lifesteal
  
• Your life drains (THIS CAN KILL YOU)
  
• A lot of attacks/actions leave behind lacerations

using External Bleeding during a combo after the 9th hit will shoot out a bunch of waves similar to the Commitment one, heavily damage you and make you exit this state.

Younocide is a long-range hitgrab that seems to have different modes depending on the enemy's HP

1. A single hit that does massive damage
   
2. Below 600(displayed as 6000 in Ranked UI) hp: a brutal combo attack that gets completely fcked by combo proration
   
3. Below 250(2500) hp: an execution move that instantly kills(don't use this if you're in Blood Burst, you'll die before the animation finishes and they'll win anyways x_x) This threshold is also lowered during combos.

I'll add more things if I find any

Soul Rush is also an insanely good movement option, it's an instant dash with crazy high speed that always becomes cancelable on your opponent's turn. I've gotten out of +1's with this

it does all of this without consuming an air option, and with Lunatic 1 meter is dirt cheap, but it seems you only get Whiff Cancel options out of it

also Rising Slash is a textbook invulnerable-on-startup uppercut

aint no way you made this chibi!

Burst/Burst Cancel are replaced with Blood Burst/Blood Burst EX, which activates some kind of supercharged form, during which:

• You gain lifesteal
  
• Your life drains (THIS CAN KILL YOU)

Younocide is a long-range hitgrab that seems to have different modes depending on the enemy's HP

1. A single hit that does massive damage
   
2. Below ~50% hp: a brutal combo attack that gets completely fcked by combo proration
   
3. Below ~15% hp: an execution move that instantly kills(don't use this if you're in Blood Burst, you'll die before the animation finishes and they'll win anyways x_x)

I'll add more things if I find any

Thanks so muchhhh!!!

some quick updates after some labbing and talking in the Lunatic wip thread on the YOMI Modding discord:

The combo threshold is after the 9th hit of a combo

The HP thresholds are actually based on the raw numbers, not HP%. This won't usually matter as most characters have 1000(displayed as 10000) HP but some characters have different HP values

The first threshold is below 600(6000) HP, and the second one is at 250(2500)HP, but it becomes significantly lower during combos. Here's the exact formula in the code (credit to Use >_ for this one)


also the mode you enter with blood bust is called Hysteria so I'll call it that from now on & go edit the old one to refer to it as that

One time I escaped a grab as a Lunatic. There was no prompt- I was in the middle of typing, with no ability to do anything- waiting for the turn to end after being grabbed, and then I seemed to have escaped it automatically.

I was in Hysteria when this happened, which was activated via Blood Burst EX. Singleplayer testing yields nothing. Any ideas? Tried grabbing on low health too, didn't do anything unique. I must be missing something.

were there any save points (i.e. Insurance, Blood Bank) that could've teleported you out of the grab?

i love wakeup dp

wakeup dp moment

♥♥♥♥ your character if they have a safe dp that confirms into combos

What does preload do? And how exactly do the bloodbank "points" work?

Blood Bank and Insurance leave behind a Checkpoint. After a while, the Checkpoint will expire, creating an explosion and teleporting you to it. Preload does that early.

top discussion has hilariously outdated tips LMAO

how do u do the one shot move with lunatic now after changes. i did it to my friend yestrday and i dnt know how to do it again

You should use character codex mod, it really helps a lot.
But to answer your question;
You have to parry(Melee) one of their attacks or parry/burst their own burst and then after either of these conditions are set you should use younocide.
It deals 6666 damage.
