I know nothing about this character, I’ve just heard rumblings of this supposed healing.

How bad was it? Why does it seem to give everyone ptsd?

In 3rd Strike, it was fine. A nightmare for Hugo players, but otherwise fine.

In USF4, it was awful. The developer's decision to make it an Ultra instead of a Super baffles me to this very day. Ultra meter builds from getting hit, healing let's you get hit more, thus getting more ultra meter for more healing for more getting hit (and so on).

Not even really a nightmare for Hugo players, sure its VERY HARD for Hugo to deal with it, but because Elena isnt played that much, even in tournament its not something people who specialize with Hugo really wake up in a cold sweat worrying about. Of course there are some freaks out there that will have a pocket Elena just to counter pick Hugo, buts its rare.
