Nine the Phantom’s normal attacks are tuned to specific elements. A is for Water icon water ( mizu), B is for Wind icon wind ( kaze), and C is for Fire icon fire ( hi). When her normal attack hits her opponent, or is blocked by them, the corresponding element will be added to her Active Slot (アクチブスロット Akuchibu Surotto).

Nine has two slots: Active (アクチブ Akuchibu), where she stores her elements (max. 3), and Stock (ストック Sutokku), where she can store a spell from her Active Slot via the Seamoss Gate (シーモスゲート Shīmosu Gēto) special move. Each spell has its own icon, and elements of Active Slot are displayed on Nine’s sprite by colored ribbons.

Nine does not have a Drive, she uses magic instead. D button activates the combination of elements in the Active Slot and the order of elements does not matter. Nine has 20 spells, overall, having the most extensive command list in the playable roster.

Nine is one of the most (if not the most) versatile fighters in the game, as her arsenal contains a wide range of moves with various applications, making her suited as both a zoner and a rushdown fighter. She has an amazingly high damage output with large hitboxes, able to deplete enemy hit points with the right combination and succession of spells, which is only enhanced by her capacity to attack from various distances. Her dashes are teleports (which she can execute twice), allowing her to move across considerable distances and evade punishment from opponents. She is also able to enhance the damage of her normal attacks (that being the element of the most recent attack she dealt) for a period of time with her Flux Nurture (フラックスナーチャー Furakkusu Nāchā) special move.

Unfortunately, her ground mobility is terribly slow, as she simply struts across the stage. Despite being able to teleport, they are not as quick as one would want so timing is critical as one misstep can leave one vulnerable. Her health is also considerably low compared to the other characters, making her a glass cannon. Lastly, her fighting style makes her one of the most difficult characters to master as one must memorize all the spell combinations she can employ and how they can be applied to full effect as well as how these combinations can be best stacked for maximum damage.
