Description
Crosscast Veil Off (CVO) is a unique defensive maneuver found in certain fighting games, particularly within the Under Night In-Birth series. This mechanic enables a player to break free from an opponent's ongoing combo, creating an opportunity to counterattack. Unlike other defensive options such as blocking or dodging, CVO requires precise timing and resource management, as it typically consumes a portion of the player's special meter. The successful execution of a Crosscast Veil Off can dramatically alter the flow of a match, turning a defensive situation into an offensive one. This mechanic is particularly useful for players who find themselves backed into a corner, as it not only interrupts the opponent's attack but also grants temporary invincibility, allowing for a strategic repositioning or the initiation of a powerful counter-combo.
Examples
- In Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st], a player can use Crosscast Veil Off to break free from a high-damage combo, thereby saving themselves from losing a significant portion of their health bar and turning the tables on their opponent.
- During a high-stakes match, a player trapped in the corner successfully executes a Crosscast Veil Off, interrupting their opponent's relentless assault and gaining the upper hand by initiating a counter-combo that leads to a comeback victory.
Additional Information
- Crosscast Veil Off is often used strategically in high-level play, where players must decide the optimal moment to utilize this limited resource.
- Mastery of Crosscast Veil Off can be a defining factor in competitive matches, separating novice players from seasoned veterans.
