'''Standing'''
'''Standing'''
* st. A/B/C are cancel-able.
* st.A having the same functions as its close variant means a very short range, and even in height, st.D and f+D make for good and only slightly less speedy anti-airs.
* st. C is slow, advances, and is the only standing normal that looks different than her close normals.
* st.B/D hit twice, and either hit is of both are cancelable.
* st.B is the best and most reliable combo starter Shermie has for both its range and speed. Advances Shermie forward minutely. 2nd hit whiffs on crouch block, but will connect against a croucher if the first hit does.
* st.C has a slow start-up, but moves further than st.B, making up Shermie's longest reaching poke.
* st.D's hitbox only starts once Shermie's foot is higher than her head, which may cause it to whiff on crouchers or smaller characters. An effective reactionary anti-air. Moves Shermie back a bit.

* cr. B is somewhat slow.
* cr.A chains into itself, but the 2nd cr.A will whiff.
* cr. C/D have slow start up animations.
* cr.B has a bit of start-up, and moves Shermie forward further than st.B, less than st.C. Sets up a tick throw with hcf+k if spaced.
* cr.C moves Shermie backwards as she raises her hands in a lift. Hitbox starts low to the center of an opponent, then an anti-air hitbox is present later in the move, and goes further back than Shermie's hands suggest.
* cr.D beats out cr.B in range slightly. Not SC-able, which is a bit of a spit in the face of qcfx2+k being her Ultimate Juggle.
** An extra bar can be spent on AB Tactical Step after sweep, and the damage is fair enough for 2 bar, but confirming off a stray sweep into a high-recovery super is high risk.


'''Jumping'''
'''Jumping'''
* j. A is utterly useless!!!
* j.A is a less active and overall less effective air-to-air compared to j.B.
* j. B/C/D can be used to cross up. Using D is the best option however.
* j.B/C/D all have cross up hits along Shermie's back leg, her bottom, and her bent back knee respectively. j.D is the most consistent to connect along with it being her go-to jump-in button in general.
* neutral j.D has a tiny bit more range than j.D, and is fast and active enough to defend air space with.


'''Blowback Attack'''
'''Blowback Attack'''
Pressing the E button while blocking will allow Shermie to do counter with a f + D animation, and she will then tag out.

* 1st hit of the raw and canceled versions whiff on some crouchers, whether they block or not.


Baku New Suplex: f + C

* Slow startup, but can be used for oki. Shermie does a step forward with chest out and grabs the opponent.
* A command throw with vulnerable start-up that starts with Shermie throwing her chest forward and leads to a suplex on hit. HKD.
* Cannot be combo'd into, and needs to be delayed if wishing to use it as a tick throw or otherwise whiff.


Shermie Kick: f + D  
'''Shermie Kick''': f+D  
* Shermie does a forward advancing kick. The kick knocks back, but does not knock down. The only way to combo into this is to cancel with qcf, qcf + B/D.

* Combos only from cl.D's first hit as cl.C's pushback and f+D's start-up.
* Exclusively super cancelable into Thunder Leg Lariat (qcfx2+B/D); a real combo due to the super's Ultimate Juggle property.

* Shermie does a twirl towards the opponent. Upon landing, she does a kick. Button strength determines the height jumped and distance traveled.
* Can hold B or D to prevent the kick from coming out, which can grant strike-or-throw mix or simply make Shermie as lagless as possible is she goes over the opponent with qcb+D, but has to be the same button as what qcb+k was done with.


Air Spin Kick: (in the air) qcb + B/D
'''Air Spin Kick''': in air, qcb+B/D
* Unfortunately, this isn't the same as Orochi Shermie's lightning version.

Shermie Cute: (Input either 'Shermie Spiral' or 'Shermie Whip') then qcf + B/D
'''Shermie Cute''': after Shermie Spiral, Clutch, Captured, or Whip, qcf+B/D
* Follow up damage. Never forget to use this move whenever possible.
* A run-up follow-up knee OTG for additional damage and better oki than the above moves on their own. There is no upside to not executing this whenever possible.
* Timings:
** '''Spiral''': Input about half a second after landing.
** '''Clutch''': Landing is visually the same as Spiral, but can input Cute the moment it occurs instead of needing to briefly wait.
** '''Captured''': On a successful counter, input right as Shermie suplexes the opponent. Cute may whiff if not immediately buffered.
** '''Whip''': After the 2nd Whip input, input qcf+B/D right as Shermie tosses the opponent.


Shermie Catch: dp + A/C
'''Shermie Catch''': dp+A/C
* Shermie hops towards the player and grabs the opponent similar to O.Yashiro's move in the KOF series. If it connects, she simply vaults to the other side of the opponent, leaving them open for another attack.
* Taking a page from Chris' dp+p and more accurately to O. Yashiro's qcb+p, Shermie leaps forward with a stretched out hand to grab with.
* Only works on standing opponents, as it whiffs on crouchers.
* Unlike both Chris and O. Yashiro, while it does the same "no damage and puts opponent in a neutral state" on connection, there are no moves including supers fast enough to combo off it. You have to use the two additional moves in a rekka series.


Tsuika Nage (Additional Throw): (After Shermie Catch), hcb + A/C
::'''Tsuika Nage''': after Shermie Catch, hcf+A/C
* Follow up throw.
::* 2nd step to Catch; a suplex. Choosing to end the combo here does the exact same oki without the additional damage of Hold.


Hold: (After Tsuika Nage), Tap A/C rapidly
:::'''Hold''': (After Tsuika Nage), Tap A/C rapidly
* Follow up damage after Tsuika Nage. The more mashing done, the more damage done.
:::* Ending to the Catch string. Shermie holds the suplex position for up to 3 additional counts. HKD.
:::* Unlike the super version of this suplex-to-hold in a few KOF titles, the opponent can't mash out against Shermie, so obtaining additional damage is on entirely on her.

General Strategy

  • Shermie NGBC Primer Part I(by Dark Geese):
    • Shermie has two Orochi moves and the rest regular. -Her Ultimate Juggle is her qcfx2 k super. -Best to start combos off a cr.b or close st. b (2 hits) Both of these link into f+b -Decent anti airs for Shermie are Cr.C, f+d, qcb+p,dp+k. -She has a crossup tactic..in the air mix up qcb+d to time it where that it will be an ambiguous crossup…if it hits they cannot tech. Master this in the air! This can stop Tungs Muscleman! -Her qcb+p move has three parts..qcb+p to start, then qcf+p, then another qcf+k to finish the move. If at all possible always connect the three parts. - Her dp+p move actually does have a followup..its hcf+p, and after you hit them with the followup tap back and forward as fast as you can to increase hits. -Abuse her hcf+b move, it does not combo but that’s the beauty of it…it’s a fast running command grab. -Even st.ax2 can link into f+b into super. -About her hcfx2 p super..after it finish you gotta do a dp+k in the opposite direction Shermie is facing after the last part.and Shermie will jump up to grab and slam the opponent. After this finish it with a qcf+k running stomp move. -This is enough to get you started.
  • Block strings to use are:
