Overview

Tifa is a close range character with fast movement speed and the ability to feint attacks. Ground combat is bolstered by mid priority projectiles and an HP link, while aerial combat is supported by moves with vertical tracking. Decent EX gain and one of the highest damaging EX Bursts in the game the more EX meter she has remaining. Damage potential is high with HP attacks thanks to high base bravery and Aerith assist specifically. Low average bravery damage, limited utility on feints and below average vertical prowess while airborne limit her overall effectiveness, however.

Tifa is a low tier character.

Assists

Tifa's assist data

Attack	Startup	Spawns near	Damage Multiplier	Additional properties
Beat Rush (Ground BRV)	21F	Opponent	8, 11, 16 (35)	Chase
Falcon's Dive (Midair BRV)	23F	Opponent	26 (26)	Wall Rush
Meteodrive (Ground HP)	39F	Opponent	15 (15)	Wall Rush
Rolling Blaze (Midair HP)	45F	Opponent	1 x 7 (7)	Wall Rush

Poke and wall rush conversions, high brv damage, high risk of being locked when used.

Poke and wall rush conversions, lower damage, but faster startup and shorter animation on air BRV assist, making Tidus safer to use even if the opponent escapes it with LV1 Assist Change.

If you don't need Kuja or Tidus for whiff punishments or conversions, Aerith can boost your damage near the ground with triple HP combos or reliably set up HP damage off of Moonsault Kick's chase. Recommended for Side by Side and / or high base bravery builds.
