Witch/Southern Cross' version

After many Puyo Puyo matches with Arle Nadja, Witch decides to give up on using a set amount of potions and stars and instead rely on the compass from Madou Monogatari: The Final Test'' as a meter. With a few new tricks up her sleeve, Witch is back to using her heavy amount of magic spells to take down any opponent. Giggling is still going to happen with this Witch, so expect some more to come out of her mouth.''

Gameplay


Witch is a technically a six-button character, but plays like a three-button character, using and  for her basic attacks, Specials, Hypers and  either  or sake. , and  are also used as shortcuts to most of her Hyper attacks.

Witch uses a special meter in the form of the compass from Madou Monogatari: The Final Test, the compass uses many different stages in the form of different colors, with the compass starting out green and then changing to orange over time. When the compass is the color orange, Witch gains an automatic power charge that lasts until the color of the compass goes back down to green or lower. Witch is also able to use sake to change the color of the compass to pink for a short amount of time, doing so grants access to meteor_strike if Witch's health is also below 400.

However, when Witch uses most of her Specials and, the compass' color will turn into a darker shade of whatever color it was previously until it goes to the color black. This would require Witch to wait around for a certain amount of time until it reaches orange again for her to gain the automatic power charge. This can be used to prevent players from spamming certain attacks if they want to keep the compass' color to orange, sake can also be used to circumvent this, with sake quickly changing the color of the compass back to pink until it goes back to orange.

Witch uses a custom A.I. that tends to uses most of her Specials to catch the opponent off guard with her mostly finishing it off with a quick combo, the A.I also tends to use most of her moves to trap the opponent so that Witch can pull off a lot of damage by doing a rather long combo of Special and Normal attacks. The A.I may also tend to make her use most of her Hypers as a means to pull off a combo.
