Several positive developments have since helped Isabelle's perception in the community. First, update 4.0.0. introduced her neutral attack's "Wobbelle" technique, which can trap the opponent at an edge reliably with her neutral attack until KO percentages. In addition, although Isabelle's overall representation remained rather low, she still has several dedicated players who have performed well with her, either as a solo-main (notably {{Sm|Jaka}} and {{Sm|Nery}}) or as a secondary/co-main (notably {{Sm|kept}} and {{Sm|Rokki}}). In fact, Isabelle's representation has been consistently better than Villager's since 2022, due to her possessing a playerbase with better results and representation. As such, although she remained a low tier, she is no longer considered one of the worst characters in the game, and was ranked 73rd on the first tier list at the top of the low tier and 4 spots behind Villager. Following that list, Isabelle's results continued to improve, especially with Jaka's consistency in Europe as well as Rokki's victory at {{Trn|KOWLOON 8}}, which has led many players, especially in Japan, to believe she was better than Villager. As such, Isabelle rose to 69th on the second tier list, ranking at the top of D-tier and 3 spots ahead of Villager. | Several positive developments have since helped Isabelle's perception in the community.

Isabelle's representation only improved further in the following year, especially in the second half of the year, as many Japanese Isabelle players made notable marks in competitive play. This led to two different Isabelle players ranking on the [[LumiRank 2024.2]], with kept ranking in the top 100 and Furararamen ranking just outside the top 100, and Isabelle [[LumiRank 2024.2#Character representation|rising into the top 50 in terms of representation amongst tournaments C-tier and above]]. Outside of Japan, however, Isabelle's results remained rather scarce, and as such players outside of Japan shared a lower opinion on Isabelle's viability.
