Azucena is a very versatile character who can approach a multitude of different situations through relentless pressure, pure trickery, or anything in between.

Azucena has amazing offensive tools. For pressure, Espresso Agresión (WR3,2) will be your main option to get up and close with your opponent, there you can bully the opponent with Grande Combo (d/f+1,4,1). d/f+1,4 in particular is a safe, jailing, mid high sequence that's plus on hit and core to her gameplan. When the opponent gets agitated, Boomerang Scythe (1+2) is a safe counter-hit launcher that crushes high attacks in a flash.

Azucena is also equipped with amazing whiff punishers. Sumatra Back Knuckle (f+3,2) is an notable option, with Luna Llena (f,f+3) being a great launcher for any coffee extraordinaire that is prepared, but your go-to whiff punisher will be Aero Press Pegar (f+1+2), a power-crushing, long-reaching, heat-engager punch that puts her back on the offense, even after blocking moves with a lot of pushback, like Paul's Deathfist.

Libertador (f+3+4) is Azucena's signature stance that not only automatically dodges highs and lows, but is paired with very strong options such as Blend Cortar (LIB.d+4,4) a hellsweep that does a generous amount of damage or Golpe Affogato (LIB.1+2) a powerful mid launcher that high crushes.

Even when Backturned, Azucena has several different options such as Foo Fighter (BT 3+4), Hide Turn (BT b+3+4) and Runaway (BT b+1+2) that allow her to evade lows, highs and mids respectively.

If you enjoy keeping your opponent in the “Perfect Blend” with suffocating offense options, and tricky evasion options, then the self-proclaimed Peruvian coffee queen is the character for you!
