Platinum the Trinity is a fairly easy character to pick up and play. She is a good all-around character whose claim to fame is her high-damaging, simple combos. She can also play defensively using her Drive attacks, a handful of which act as projectiles to zone opponents from mid-to-long range. Platinum can be summed up best as a character with a lot of variety.

Platinum has a very strong footsie game with her pokes. 5B is an excellent combo starter with good range and utility. Her jumping 5B is also a good jump-in tool thanks to its hitboxes. You will generally want to avoid Platinum’s C moves unless comboing off of a B attack however, as they are relatively slow to come out and are easily punished. It is possible to cross the screen in an instant by using Mami Circular (マミサーキュラー Mami Sākyurā). This is Platinum’s main special move that, while unsafe if blocked, can be used as a surprise attack.

Platinum’s Drive, Magical Symphony (マジカルシンフォニー Majikaru Shinfonī), allows her to use a variety of Magical Weapons (マジカルウェポン Majikaru Uepon) to attack the opponent with. Using these effectively requires luck, as there is no way of knowing what item will come up next. Always remember that there is a possibility that, in a dire situation, the needed item will not be obtained, often causing players to end up severely hindered.

Platinum’s Overdrive is Magical Heart Catch (マジカルハートキャッチ Majikaru Hāto Kyatchi), which grants temporary unlimited uses of the currently equipped Magical Weapon.

Input Damage Heat gain

BBCS (Platinum throw) Summons a massive bell to send opponent flying.
Causes wallbounce in the corner. Puts lots of space between you and the opponent mid screen.
In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma, it’s special cancelable into Mami Circular midscreen for an extra hit.
Makes the opponent fly incredibly fast across the screen. You can also super cancel it into Cure Dot Typhoon, but damage wise, Mami Circular > Rapid Cancel > stuff would be better.
Input Damage Heat gain
4BC 0, 1500 0, 621
BBCS (Platinum throw) Same as forward throw, but makes the opponent bounce up before landing. The back throw also has an interesting property, it allows 22C to be used immediately. This allows combos like 4BC into corner > 22C > 5C > 236B > stuff. Due to this property, 4BC > Miracle Jeanne > stuff can be interesting.
Input Damage Heat gain
BC
(in the air)
0, 1500 0, 621
(BBCS Platinum AThrow) Similar to ground throw, the bell comes from above and knocks down, wallbouncing. Depending on the height, it can combo directly into 22C (at low heights, you’ll need special cancel the grab with j.236C and j.C before 22C).


Counter Assault[]

Input Damage Heat gain
6AB -- --
BBCS (Platinum 5B) Uses 5B animation. You’ll be using this if you find yourself trapped in pressure, as Plat doesn’t have many other escape options. Be wary of them baiting it, as they may be more aware knowing Plat has very few other defensive options.


Crush Trigger[]

Input Damage Heat gain
AB 1000 0
BBCP (Platinum CT) Turns her staff into a popgun and shoots a big glove out. Extremely deceptive hitbox, hits much further than it looks.

Drive[]

Input Japanese name English name Damage Heat gain
D マジカルシンフォニー Majikaru Shinfonī Magical Symphony --

After selecting, various techniques corresponding to the staff mode can be used (with certain restrictions). The following staff mode is notified at the bottom through the symbol next to the word NEXT. Platinum does not start the match with a drive item equipped, and must press D to acquire it. Every time you push D with the equipped staff, the number of times you can use the associated technique will decrease. Pressing the D button again once the item has disappeared will make it appear again with the next type of equipment. Each of these weapon’s effects will be described below.

Note: Miracle Jeanne upgrades your next weapon. Upgraded versions will be detailed as well.

Input Japanese name English name Damage Heat gain
Hold 2, then 8C ハッピーマギカ Happi Magika Happy Magika 100
BBCP (Platinum HappyMagicka1)
BBCP (Platinum HappyMagicka2)
New move in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma.
Platinum taunts her opponent to attack her, and if attacked, launches a doll at the opponent that knocks down on hit.
This move is a mixed bag; it blocks all normals and specials, which seems great on paper. However, the doll can be easily dodged by many characters with jump cancels on normals, and due to the long recovery after launching the doll, punishes are easy. Along with this, throws will beat the counter no matter what, so if you throw out the counter randomly, it can be easily punished by that as well. However, this move shines against characters who cannot easily bait it.
Overall, it’s a situational move that can shine against some characters, and flounders against others. Just don’t get into the habit of using it as your only escape.
