Rinoa Heartilly

Rinoa's battle style is Waltzing Shooter, where she can freely change her distance and position from her opponent by pressing the and moving the control stick in the desired direction after an attack. By altering her distance, the player is capable of a variety of combos. Her other option is an attack. The player has the option to press after any bravery attack, allowing Rinoa to shoot her blaster at the opponent. Using these two different strategies makes Rinoa a tricky character to use, but if mastered, will confuse the opponent as to what type of attack will be implemented. Rinoa is a mid-ranged fighter, equipped with both close and long range attacks. She has access to two chain bravery attacks. Her HP attacks involve her Combine Limit Break from the original game, with the exception of the healing abilities. Rinoa has decent movement speed and her attacks execute quickly. However, she does take time to recover after her attacks, leaving her open to counterattacks. Like most projectile attacks, Rinoa's are easily blocked, but her quick, close range strikes make up for this.

Angelo Strike (Ground/Aerial) - Angelo bites onto opponent, flies into the air, and slams them into the ground. Wall Rush

Wishing Star (Ground) - Jumps on Angelo's back and slams into opponent eight times. Magic Damage.

EX Mode
Rinoa's EX Mode is Angel Wing, her second Limit Break in Final Fantasy VIII. She sprouts a set of white feathered wings as she did in the original animation when entering into her berserk-like magic state. While in her EX Mode, Rinoa gains the abilities 'Glide" and "Primal Magic". Glide allows Rinoa to fly by holding the X button after a jump. The latter adds magic to every attack, adding magic damage to physical attacks and augmenting her magical attacks. Her attacks gain random elemental magic including fire, ice, thunder, water, wind, earth, and holy effects.

Rinoa's EX Burst is Sorceress Power. She blasts her opponent with the four strongest magic attacks from Final Fantasy VIII, Meteor, Holy, Flare, and Ultima. A circle appears at the bottom of the screen with another silver circle moving in a clockwise fashion. The player must time each button correctly in order to deal maximum damage before Rinoa uses "Promise" calling a huge beam of light from the sky and showering pink flower petals and feathers in every direction upon impact. The beam is reminiscent of the effect at the ending scene of Final Fantasy VIII, where Rinoa spontaneously revives Squall.
