However, Bayonetta has several weaknesses that hold her back, the most notable being her raw kill power. She tends to have a harder time KOing at higher percents, as her best KO options, particularly sweetspot back-air, down-air, jab, and her smash attacks, are difficult to land or combo into at high percents. This is compounded by her light weight and tall frame, which means opponents could KO her first if she is unable to take their stock. In addition, Bayonetta's frame data is below-average, with almost all of her attacks coming out on frame 9 or later, and most of them also have high ending lag and deal minimal shield damage, making them unsafe on shield. As such, her ground game is rather poor, which in turn affects her combo game, as she often relies on [[Heel Slide]], up tilt, or down tilt in order to start combos. Finally, her combos have their own drawbacks: not only are they susceptible to [[SDI]], but the more special moves she uses during an aerial combo, the more landing lag she receives, up to 50 frames, making them punishable if whiffed. | However, Bayonetta has several weaknesses that hold her back, the most notable being her raw kill power.

Overall, Bayonetta is a combo-oriented character that can rack up damage quickly and KO at early percents, however she tends to struggle at higher percents due to her poor approach and limited KO options outside of her combos. Early results from Bayonetta were lackluster, leading to a negative initial perception, however numerous buffs from balance patches helped improve her | Overall, Bayonetta is a combo-oriented character that can rack up damage quickly and KO at early percents, however she tends to struggle at higher percents due to her poor approach and limited KO options outside of her combos. Early results from Bayonetta were lackluster, leading to a negative initial perception, however numerous buffs from balance patches helped improve her results in the post-online metagame, and she has since garnered a large playerbase and a plethora of strong results from players such as {{Sm|Bloom4Eva}}, {{Sm|Lima}}, and {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}. | ||
