Sakuya Izayoi

Description
Sakuya Izayoi, the head maid from Stage 5 of Touhou 6: Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, has joined the battle.

Sakuya is a strong zoner with pretty good normals. Her zoning tools allow her to use them for regular zoning or even combo starters in some cases. This is amplified with her stopwatch gimmick, where if fully mastered can be a deadly part of her kit.

Specials:

-Nspecial- Silver Knives:
Throw knives straight forward towards your opponent to zone them out.

-Fspecial- Silver Knives V2:
Cover more area by throwing knives diagonally at the opponent. Sakuya will throw these diagonally upwards on the ground and downwards in the air.

-Dspecial- Pocket watch:
Sakuya places down a stopwatch that generates a field. This field can interact with nspecial, fspecial, and bair projectiles, causing them to stop in place if touching the field. Frozen knives will resume movement if any of the knife throw moves are used without the button being held, any current knives touch the field, or the opponent enters the field in hitstun. If stopwatch is hit by the opponent while knives are in the field, the knives get destroyed.

-Uspecial- Vanishing Everything:
A normal teleport recovery, can be directed at any direction to recover. If a stopwatch is place on the field, you can hold the special button to teleport directly to it.

dude... I do think that it has some crazy combo opportunity, really love it! it's my second most used workshop character that i have.

do you think maybe you could let her place more knives in the zone, as well as making the zone bigger on her timestop ability

I don't know if anyone's mentioned it before but when I put down the pocket watch all of the knife throwing attacks just get relocated to where I put down the pocket watch.

resinstalling helped, idk how or why, but it fixed. Thanks a lot

I will be taking a look into redoing the code for the next patch as I think I might have an idea on why it's happening, for now try reinstalling the character and see if that helps.

found some extra info on the glitch that I mentioned before, for some reason, Sakuya's moves will work perfectly fine until I choose Luigi (made by Reforged). I thought it had to do with characters that has the option to change move set on the character select screen, but apparently this has nothing to do with it. I think there might be other characters that also happen. I have only found that Luigi can glitch this out

Jesus. Her playstyle is so elegant: so graceful! I've been a zetta main for years but I may have to switch-

Neutral special suddenly stops working after doing it in the air once, not even SD'ing resets it. Side special in the air becomes locked after using it, to unlock it you need to do grounded side special to use it in the air again. Doing Up-smash once makes you unable to use it again, pretty sure if it didn't leave the ground it would still work kinda like how Nspecial is. I think none of these are intentional

That might be an issue with the way I coded it I'll have to look into it

Silver Knives and up smash randomly stop working for me after a little bit, but I have no idea why. It works at the start of the match, but then mid match will start doing some weird animation and not working
