    How to unlock Aensland of Makai

    This Trophy will unlock once you cleared all 5 Challenges for Morrigan in Night Warriors.

    Trophy difficulty on 10: ????????

    Morrigan is a very versatile character with interesting air dash angles helping you stay on top of your opponent, which you can mix up with her multi hitting overheads and cross ups. Above that, she possesses the most interesting and flashy EX move in the game.

    The difficulty in Morrigan's trials resides in how easily and fast you can pull out her EX Darkness Illusion (DI). If you are able to pull it out fast and consistently, this trophy should be yours. Morrigan's DI is one of the very few EX moves in the game able to cancel any attack or chains and the trials will use this ability a few times. If you are unsure about a specific challenge regarding timing, position or anything else then remember you can watch the demo any time (by hitting and choosing 'exit', which will bring you back to the trial menu for the given character). All challenges below are described with the default buttons, unless specified otherwise but you can remap some buttons for ease of execution.


    Challenge 1: Follow a Soul Fist
    Challenge difficulty: ?

    Easy challenge introducing Morrigan's Soul Fist and Shell Kick.
    Start at mid screen distance with a Light Soul Fist (+) and follow up immediately with a dashing jab (,+) and finish it with a Shell Kick the moment you connect your jab (+ any kick).


    Challenge 2: Dashing Jab Combo
    Challenge difficulty: ??

    Another easy challenge; finishing with a chain combo.
    Start with a dashing jab (,+), making sure to hit deep and immediately input her Shell kick (+ any kick) and finish the combo with a chain crouching short (+) to crouching roundhouse (+).


    Challenge 3: Aerial Illusion
    Challenge difficulty: ?????

    This might be easy or tricky, depending on how easy you pull out Morrigan's DI. The easiest way should be to just jump up and do you DI move, making sure your first jab hits Victor high. If done quickly, you should connect the first jab ( -> starting the DI move), whiff (miss) the second jab (your second punch input ()is buffered during the first punch animation), towards + short (+), hitting Victor a second time and quickly finishing it with a fierce (), which should have you finish your combo with Morrigan's DI. You can remap 'fierce' to the button to make it even easier.

    Another method (submitted by Chozen1), is to simply do a Jumping jab () and Jumping short(), then right as you land link into a Standing Roundhouse(). The standing roundhouse should hit 4 times, giving you plenty of frame animation to cancel it into Morrigan's DI.(,,+,)


    Challenge 4: Darkness Illusion combo
    Challenge difficulty: ????????

    +, +, Darkness Illusion (, , +,).
    While this short combo looks simple, this is actually Morrigan's hardest trial due to the tiny frame window to cancel her crouching fierce into DI. Sadly, you can't buffer her light punch during her crouching fierce by pushing both buttons together (which does work in SSF4 but not in Darkstalkers since light gets priority over hard when pushed together). The easiest way would be to map your fierce to so you can cancel her crouching fierce to a DI by pianoing/sliding very quickly to your jab () and start inputting the rest of Morrigan's DI as fast as you can.

    Challenge with remapping: (+,+) while pianoing/sliding as fast as you can to (, ) and finishing with (+, ). It is a cancel but the key for this challenge is about getting a clean fast input for Morrigan's DI. Keep practising and it should come out if you are fast enough!


    Challenge 5: Astral Vision Valkyrie Turn
    Challenge difficulty: ???????

    This pretty flashy combo looks difficult but is rather easy compared to the previous one, since you got a larger frame window to cancel your last move into Morrigan's DI. Start with Morrigan's Astral Vision (, ,+, ) and immediately follow up with Morrigan's (light version of her) Valkyrie Turn (+).

    Make sure you input her Valkyrie Turn right after her Astral Visions or else the combo will fail. Once the Valkyrie Turn hits, hit crouching jab twice (+,+), each of them hitting twice, then linking into a standing roundhouse (). The standing roundhouse will hit 4 times (8 times with Morrigan's double), giving you enough frame time to cancel it into her Darkness Illusion (, , +, ). Linking your crouching jabs to a standing roundhouse and cancelling with a fast DI input is key to this challenge.
