One of the best ever created!

The moves all feel really clean and the attacks make for a cool intimidating presence on the stage. the summons felt like a gimmick at first but they're really useful when you take time to learn how they work.

I love the character design and move set! wish she was official so I could play her ranked!!!

The only small gripe I have with her is that I'm locked in place while I'm performing down special. Maybe if I had limited movement IE Greninja side special from smash would make it feel much better to use.

Otherwise, perfect.

Also, I have decided I’m nicknaming the Mushrooms Toadsteels.

Thanks for the response! That voice suits her quite well. I don’t know why; but I imagine her voice taking on a more & more demonic sound the more she builds up aura. Y’know, having that sort of reverse echo to it. I don’t know if you’re familiar with Him from Power Puff girls; but that’s the kind of sound I mean. Not the voice itself, obviously; but the filter on it. Man, I haven’t watched that show in years and the psychos voice is still fresh in my head…

Thanks for the review @S.I.L appreciate anyone taking the time to talk about her!

1. Her taunt is indeed meant to be blowing a kiss. I wanted her wickedness to be a bit playful as she is isn't really concerned with anything other than the acquisition of power and having servants.

2. Id love her canon voice to be something like Lae'zel from baldurs gate 3. When I voiced her for the trailer I didn't have something exact in mind, but now I do.

3. Ahm-ma-nee-tah
S.I.L. Jul 12, 2024 @ 3:07pm 
OH, and ooone last think: Is her name pronounced AH-muh-NEE-tah, uh-MON-it-uh, or something else?

Overall, my experience with this character may not be indicative of others'; but I still had quite a bit of fun showering my opponents with toxic glitter.

I do have a couple questions:
I want to make sure I'm judging her taunt correctly. I'd hate to have a false understanding of her character. Is she blowing a kiss in her taunt; or is it just a gesture that resembles such?
Second, do you have a headcanon voice for her? If so, what is it?
S.I.L. Jul 12, 2024 @ 3:02pm 
As for her design:

To be frank, it's why I downloaded her in the first place. Her design has a strong intimidation factor, while also keeping a twisted heir of allure. It's a design that tickled my curiosity; and I'm all for it. Her skins look just as good; and the way her animations and VFX are done flatters her already solid design.
S.I.L. Jul 12, 2024 @ 2:58pm 
Her moves are all well balanced and work together in a way that makes combos easier to execute than with some other characters. Even so, it feels like it takes a long time to kill, especially considering she herself doesn't have many forward launching kill moves; and therefore relies on vertical opportunities opening up. Now, before anyone tells me that's why the mushroom helpers exist: trust me, I'm aware of that. Well aware; but as I stated: I suck at actually making use of helpers like them. It's no one's fault; and to be totally honest, I'm content with playing her how I have been. Not having many kill moves; but instead a plethora of combos I can link together, makes her feel more like a "playing with her food" kind of fighter, letting the opponent survive a longer time than usual, solely for the purpose of swiping away the hope you so generously teased them with.

Alright, time for another one of my ridiculously in depth character reviews:

(sorry not sorry)

I'll start by saying characters with allies in their moveset aren't really my cup of tea. As cool as they are; and as fun as it is to watch an opponent go from worthy adversary to human volleyball, I simply can never utilize the allies effectively. I'm saying this to let people know that I personally don't have a firm grasp on how she's INTENDED to be played; so my opinions here will be based on how I choose to play her instead.

Very

Love the usage of GOLDEN DARK from the DoA soundtrack in the trailer! The original context's eldritch power does a great service to the character here!
ZakBox Apr 10, 2024 @ 10:35am 
very well made character with technical elements. can be picked up by anyone but only the elite of players can fully master her. 5/5 Character Design 4.5/5 Balance 5/5 5/5 Playstyle

@UOIcE
thanks for the kind words!

This character feels incredibly solid! After watching the Genesis X tournament i thought i was gonna be locked on Bhadra but after downloading and playing this character i think it actually has my vote instead, really well thought out and the animations look fantastic. big congrats on her creation!
FROTTAGER AERO  [author] Feb 20, 2024 @ 11:40am 
just put out a nice patch worth of damage buffs for her. she should now feel a little closer to base cast damage wise.
FROTTAGER AERO  [author] Jan 23, 2024 @ 11:53pm 
thanks for the support everyone! I may not win, who knows, but the lovely thoughts and comments all over the are internet have been delightful!
champagne.daniel Jan 21, 2024 @ 1:07pm 
THE ANSWER TO ALL OF THEM IS YES!
champagne.daniel Jan 21, 2024 @ 1:07pm 
Best grass type character?
champagne.daniel Jan 21, 2024 @ 1:06pm 
Best fungus character?
champagne.daniel Jan 21, 2024 @ 1:06pm 
Best puppet character?
champagne.daniel Jan 21, 2024 @ 8:11am 
This feels like a real character. Also she is probably extremely polarising which is fitting I love her
Captcha Protected Pussy Jan 18, 2024 @ 3:34pm 
This character is very solid! It's cool having a fast faller puppet character. Still getting the handle on how to use sporeling, as well as how to properly use the neutral special (really just using it at all! It's a solid tool but I underutilize it). Love that you can charge strong attacks at any point, it allows for setting things up very well. Super fun :D
Emperador Toppo Jan 16, 2024 @ 12:34pm 
Now after some matches with a friend i really know how to use the sporeling... but as a meatshield and distraction muehehe. Great character again, love her so much and i hope she still gets updated and polished (personally i would prefer extra colors like red, gold and white). :resmile:
Kazzie Jan 15, 2024 @ 5:36pm 
Oh she's winning the R2 contest. Guaranteed.
FROTTAGER AERO  [author] Jan 15, 2024 @ 4:28pm 
@rey toppo
Thanks for trying her! Yeah in testing we used to have it at 40 health. Atm the 25 is what we landed on balance wise. Once you get good with puppet it does make a huge difference to the opponent
Emperador Toppo Jan 15, 2024 @ 1:43pm 
Very fun to play and like that ganondorf grab, makes her intimidating, one small issue i have its the sporeling cuz he´s easy to kill and take advantage with him at all
Captcha Protected Pussy Jan 15, 2024 @ 9:08am 
this character will fix me
hyuponia Jan 15, 2024 @ 12:13am 
awesomely done!!
Paco Jan 15, 2024 @ 12:03am 
Visually, she might actually be my favorite OC design in all of workshop. I'm so happy you didn't give up back then, I'll be playing her a lot.
