I’ve heard a lot of people Hela is extremely weak but I’ve also heard people say Hela is extremely good when played correctly, however I can’t find a single video that explains how to play Hela correctly. Do you guys mind explaining how to play her correctly?

    You have to learn how to time her heavies

    It's complicated ...
    She has the potencial to do a lot of damage via her furies and her passive armor break, and some additional synergies to avoid her fury buffs from expire quickly.
    On top of that, she relies on timing the specials and heavy attacks in order to not get hit while doing them.

    Basically, charge heavy to gain fury buffs, release special when opponent is dashing at you to avoid getting hit, play agressively in order to not lose the furies, and release a special 2. Each hit will do 20k with no crit

    Build up soul charges(?) by double mediums till like 300-400 and then charge up your furies.
    With 5-6 furies and passive armor break from Sp2, she will be hitting like an absolute beast.

    She's amazing when used properly. Look her up on YouTube, or ask around. Absolute beast.

    The reward is not worth the risk.

    She's a great LOL option if you have the synergies. The best way to play her without synergies is to heavy stack 4-5 furies then to spam MLLLM combos then MLM combos when your souls or whatever get low. With the synergies that extend fury duration you can stack 11+ furies and her damage can be insane

    I think she's a decent attacker. you have to know how to intercept with her heavies. and you can always have a bar of power as safety if you do mess up a heavy intercept (also opponent can't have more than 1 bar of power or you'll get specialed trying to do this..)

    Me personally find her as a high to great damage ouput played character if played correctly. But without her fury and played badly she will hit like a wet kipper... so myself i find her as one of the most highly overrated characters in the game. Yes to all the haters of this comment, if you play like a pro , or are playing in a longevity fight like LOL she has great potential... but for me " Hi and Bye"
