Sakuya Izayoi(Balanced)

Description
#######This is a rebalanced version of the character meant to fit better into Rivals, if you want the original go here, https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1869125757

Sakuya Izayoi from Touhou 6 Embodyment of the Scarlet Devil is finally in Rivals!

After 20+ hours of work, I finally got my favorite Touhou character in and working!

She is a character who is very fast and has good framedata, However her moves don't do very much percent in return. Similar to Sheik in a way.

Moveset:

UP Special: A teleport (shorter now)
Neutral Special: Knife throw, somewhat slow, just a standard projectile
Down Special: Stun Knife, A second knife throw with less lag, doesn't do that much percent but stuns if on the ground. Sakuya also drops a ~Luna Dial~ which is a kill move if you can hit it
Side Special: Sakuya's worst move. It was supposed to be similar to Ike Quickdraw but it doesn't have the utility. Has a long startup and end lag but it kills.

I don't own the rights to Sakuya or the sprites those belong to ZUN. The voice line comes from the dub of the Fantasy Kaleidoscope anime which you should check out!

"UP Special: A teleport (shorter now)" *SHORTER*, lmao she just teleports to the top of the screen and BEYOND! this doesn't feel balanced at all lol, whether good or bad lmao, I mean a teleport that lets you recover from anywhere is a pretty cool concept, but does it really fit this character? I mean Idk the source material but I don't feel like she should be able to do that lol, also wtf is Down-B supposed to do lol, the downwards projectile just does 1% and doesn't even spike... the knife is too high so it can't even hit Shovel Knight lol, meh.

I'm really confused because it seems to me that this one is just slightly more OP than the normal one? maybe people are getting tricked by the name?

It's not actually ballanced, Side B Kills you and Up B warps to the top of the screen :/

Nice to see a balanced version of your Sakuya mod on here. When downloading this, I was a bit worried you were going to over-nerf her, but I'm glad to say that she's still incredibly fun to play as, and even more-so against!

Love how you made two versions of the mod to appease more people (because really Sakuya by herself in the Touhou games is OP, considering how she can legit stop time lol).

Testing out this mod compared to the other one you made, I can already tell that this one's more competitive-friendly and balanced for serious tournament-playing Rivals players.. So good work on this.

I really hope they have a sort of Rivals of Aether "Custom Character Workshop Tournament" because it would be really fun to watch competitive players perfect Sakuya's technical movement and framedata.
