How Do You Rate Raven? (Season 4)

Raven Moveset and Abilities

Ground Attacks

Raven's side attack is great for playing against opponents that like to play close as you can use this to start a combo or simply knock them away. Her side special summons her pet companion Lenore and can knock an opponent either towards or away from you. Her other special moves can interact with Lenore, giving you more pressure against opponents.

Aerial Attacks

Raven's neutral attack is perfect for starting air combos however this move will require some practice as the hitbox can be tricky. Her down attack is also a great move as you can use this to spike an opponent or ring them out when fighting outside of the stage.

Passive Abilities

Passive	Effect
Magical Countermeasures	When Raven and her ally are in a dire situation, Raven's magic begins to consume her, changing her appearance and empowering her. Raven't taken damage, her ally's taken damage, and the current team score can all impact when Raven's passive triggers. While her passive is active, Raven is faster and she deals additional damage and knockback. Raven can dodge upward from the ground.

Raven's passive basically buffs her entire kit, allowing her to move faster and hit harder. This boost increases the overall damage a player can inflict, giving them a chance to ring out an opponent quicker.

Raven Best Perks and Signature Perks

Signature Perks

Perk and Rating	Description	Explanation
★★★★★ Simmering Temper	Raven's Magical Countermeasures passive requires less damage to trigger.	This perk allows you to play more aggressive even when accumulating high damage. Since this is also affected by your ally's damage, this can work well even when Raven hasn't taken much damage.
★★★★☆ Friendly Familiar	Once Raven's bird is placed, it will home in towards the nearest ally. If homing towards Raven, the bird will stop homing a short distance away from Raven.	This perk works great in teamplay as you can coordinate with your ally on where to move and place Lenore. This is best used by players that are skilled with Lenore in order to take advantage of the the bird's positioning.

Universal Perks

Team Perk

Perk and Rating	Description	Explanation
★★★★☆ Snowball Effect	Your team gains a 7% damage boost against the enemy with the highest damage. If your teammate also selects this perk, the damage boost is doubled.	Since Raven's passive increases her damage and knockback, this perk helps to amplify those effects and can help make ringing out enemies faster.
★★★☆☆ That's Flammable, Doc!	Your team can melee an enemy after hitting them with a projectile to ignite them. If your teammate also selects this perk, ignite damage and duration is increased.	This gives your team additional damage over time after hitting an enemy with your projectile attacks.

Strong Perk

Perk and Rating	Description	Explanation
★★★★★ Collateral Damage	You deal 1 additional damage when you knock back enemies into terrain.	Since many of Raven's attacks can knock enemies back, this essentially acts as an overall buff to her kit.
★★★☆☆ Speed Force Assist	You receive 5% increased base movement speed.	While Raven can get around the stage at a decent pace, the added movement speed can help in positioning around the stage with Lenore.

Standard Perk

Perk and Rating	Description	Explanation
★★★★☆ Second Wind Beneath Your Wings	You refresh all air abilities after ringing out an enemy.	Given her ringout potential, this perk lets Raven continue dealing damage and supporting her ally immediately after a ringout.

Raven Best Combos and Moves

Spike to Horizontal Ringout

Aerial Side + Attack ► Aerial Down + Attack ► Aerial Up + Attack ► Neutral + Attack

This is a simple and easy combo you can use to build up damage while potentially ringing out enemies to the side of the screen. While the charge on your Neutral + Attack can depend on how much damage you need, Azarath is already suitable for knocking back enemies from the stage.

Aerial Combo to Grab Attack

Aerial Neutral + Attack ► Up + Attack ► Up + Special

This utilizes Raven's knockup moves and ends with her grab attack. This is great for setting up your ally as they can wait for the grab attack for an easy follow up.

How to Play Raven

Coordinate with Ally

Raven excels very well in team play due to the many knockbacks and knock up moves she has in her kit. While she has great ringout potential by herself, you can make your fights more efficient by setting up your ally with the many displacement moves she has at her disposal.

Use Lenore to Zone Enemies

Lenore is Raven's companion pet that also performs her Special attacks. Placing Lenore in key areas can make for unique combos due to the interaction Raven has with her. Just having Lenore out on the stage can already make a difference as your enemy will have to keep an eye on your bird while fighting you.
