Poison Ivy Speculation Thread

Do you think Poison Ivy will be more of a Trap/Setup type or Mid range neutral type character?

I'm just asking if it would seem hypocritical. If my name was veganlord it would be a little strange if I played butcher leatherface
Lmao if anything it'll make it better as you'll stand out. "Broke Mofo" that mains Batman, Wrestling inspired name that mains a zoner. I can dig it.

Maybe she'll have gear to make the vines red so you can pretend that they're bacon strips.

Trailer is out boys. 80% sure she will be mixup fitty/fitty orientated. The oh is the normal starter canceled into the super at the end and the low is after the b3 in the middle of the video.

She gonna need to win neutral and knock you down first cus the range on that OH looks like nothing.
 
I'll have to make 100% sure when the game comes out, but I think I'm the newest thrall joining the Poison Ivy army. She fits my preferred character archetype too well.

You seem to be right, but the overhead is a way slower speed than the low so it will definitely be fuzzy-able which is good.

IMO it seems like she will use her summoned pet to close the distance and then work her charm with command grabs and overhead/low mixups up close.

I'm depressed knowing that one of her projectiles is gonna be a gear move. I just want to zone
Yea that projectile did look like a gear move.

She still looks fun tho. Her pressure and rushdown seems to be incredible with the amount of lows/OH/grabs she has along with the mini DinoPlant.

hmm so is the trait the stance or the florasaurus?
Wonder if it'll have different commands to do different things or if it's simply like Alien's facehuggers. Either way it's interesting, definitely has potential in adding pressure and possible adding layers to her mixups.

The stance so far has the lasher multi-hitter, Low attack, and the uppercut attack. Wonder if you can cancel it, or maybe even plus frames stance cancels.. bruuh

She has a lot of advancing strings which is promising. Not a lot of vine action but at least she doesn't have T-rex reach.
She also has low and overhead starters, both have terrible range. OH is much slower. If the grab isn't gear then she'll play a bit like Error Black I think.
Can't even guess what her wake-up move will be, the grab? Vine sparks?

Imma take a guess and say that the projectile is gear only.. maybe the kiss too.

She's surprisingly up-close focused, expected more fullscreen/far away tools but she didn't have much. Guess Swamp thing is the "green" character that'll have ranged tools where she fights as a rushdown/mixup style.

Her stance isn't her trait, she did a down down input to get into it.

I think her grab is probably a hit throw end to just a string.

I'm happy she is a rush down character, but I'm disappointed her specials are kinda boring.

all I have is the Green
Really hoping her grab is special move and not just apart of that string. Looking back at the here come the girls trailer, she does it from the same mid low string though, so odds are it's just for that string. :( Hopefully she has more command grabs.

I prefer rushdown so I really like what she's shown so far. It does kind of suck that she's competing with Swamp Thing for cool special moves, but imo she still looks amazing!

Nah she does the grab raw both times, MB does a stun for a follow-up.
Unless you're talking about the leg clutch one which definitely looks like a string ender.

You're right about the stance I noticed the dd against Bane. So that only leaves the florasaurus really. Guess she'll have Zod's trait but less braindead.

She has an odd lack of specials in general. Vine sparks, stance, kiss Grab, Projectile and Florasaurus which may be trait.
Assuming 1 or 2 are gear only then she has sparks, stance and grab maybe?

Oh and she has Lao's 112121212 string it seems, she goes hella ham on Robin after the MB grab lol.

Unless she has some more stuff that's not in that trailer, she might struggle to get in when the plant dog is not up.

She has decent range, but not like "injustice range".
Not to mention no advancing armored special.

I don't really like commenting since it's a trailer and we know jack shit yet.
