Strategy[]

Skarlet's power steal from Bleeding opponent does not trigger Snare from talent "Weak Point Attacks".

Interactions[]

Please note that battles are highly situational: this section only mentions cards that have mechanics that, for any reason, are particularly effective with/against, or particularly ineffective against Skarlet. Having a card that "counters" Skarlet does not mean it is always a good choice.

Good With[]

Assassin teammates.
Any characters that can inflict Bleed.
Triborg/Smoke: Skarlet's stolen power from bleeding enemies also added to her teammates.
Mileena/Ravenous & Reptile/Noxious: Both of these characters increase damage of Bleed DOT.
Bojutsu Staff, Killer Wasp, Kintaro's Tiger's Eye, Razor Sai, Sacrificial Knife, Shaolin Bow & Bloodsucker equipments: All these equipments have damage boost against opponents affected by Bleed (if maxed), which let Skarlet hit much stronger. Additionally, Bloodsucker equipment makes Skarlet heal by attacking Bleeding enemies.

Good Against[]

Circle of Shadow Characters.

Countered By[]

Day of the Dead Characters: They reduce chance to evade combo-enders and special attacks she get from Jade/Assassin by 10%.
Cassie Cage/Undercover, Kitana/Ronin, Katana & Champion's Nunchaku: All of these characters and the equipment pieces deal more damage versus Outworld cards, which include Skarlet.
D'Vorah/Prime & Kitana/Day of the Dead: These cards are immune to bleed.
Jade/MK11: She and fellow MK11 teammates can heal from Skarlet's bleed.
Liu Kang/Klassic: Liu Kang gains a critical chance boost from Skarlet's bleed.
Mileena/Piercing: Mileena will immediately get a bar of power from Skarlet's bleed at the start of the match, and throughout the match from Skarlet's SP1 and Fatal Blow attack or if she is equipped with her signature equipment Vial of Infinite Blood.
Raiden/Dark: He can reverse the effects of bleed and power drain, which turns off the aspect of Skarlet's power steal from a bleeding enemy.
Raiden/MK11: Raiden and fellow MK11 teammates are immune to Skarlet's power steal.
Champion's Leather Bracers: This equipment gives the wearer a chance of immunity to Lethal Blow.
