General/Other - Kenshi **Possessed & Kenjutsu Guides in OP** Pig's Home for all Kenshi

[Ugodimak]

Don't have a full beard, so I can't main Kenshi...

But I just wanted to say that I respect the hell out of @Pig Of The Hut for being one of the few top players willing to share any tech and info he finds for his character once he gets his hands on the game.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

I assume tje combo thread will be updated as the game evolves?

Definitely

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

How do you view his teleport in his Possessed variation in terms of viable use/combo starting or extending etc. ?

Currently loving the teleport I'll explain tonight or tomorrow w a post about it

General strat b3 (low) into tele nj2 can be hit out if w 6 frame moves it seems but they have to be on their toes FOr it. Also they can read it or armor it

however nj4 coming out of tele has to be armored or backdashed or u gonna die son because you're planted and the whole guess happens again

Also run in full screen cancel run mid way to a OH demon, low demon, shoulder demon or tele nj2/4 or just keep running and pressure them

 

[Pan1cMode]

I usually play the girls but Kenshi looks mad sick in this game. Definitely gonna try and pick him up.

Oh, I also have a beard going

Someone needs to get a lot of kenshi pictures so we all don't have to use this one because this was the only viable one I could find

This hand in my image is a part of a Kenshi picture I cropped a long time ago. You can always try something like that. I should probably change mine. It's been a couple years, and I've never mained him. '

@Pig Of The Hut I'm guessing you can't record or stream you progress due to copyright/ the game isn't out yet? Anyway, hows the netcode feel?

 

[MrProfDrPepper]

Ask away
Ask away ill do a massive post and update tonight

any potential rushdown strategies to catch the opponent off guard? i like to rush people down at seemingly random times to keep them on their toes, maybe get off a big combo etc.

 

[tatterbug4]

Do you really have bnbs coming in already?? If so we kenshi players are going to be ahead

Yes

Balanced is 50/50 rush and zone

Kenjitsu idk, I think this stance could end up being his best. Strong space control/good mix up options

Possessed: lmao idk I've found this wicked good strats w this stance. This stance is f ing fun lol. Tons of rush and zone

 

[zHawken]

SOMEONE GO START A CHANGE.ORG PETITION TO GET NRS TO PUT A BEARDED FACTION INTO THE GAME

but in all seriousness Kenshi looks to be the most stylistic in terms to the relationship between his variations and he does hella damage. All of us Kenshi mains should join the same faction and dominate all of the beardless peasants.

also my beard pic should be coming in soon!

 

[REYTHEGREAT]

Yes

Kenjitsu idk, I think this stance could end up being his best. Strong space control/good mix up options

So it seems that all of his variations are pretty good then.

 

[tatterbug4]

I hope the possessed is good it looks like zods trait. What's his avg dmg output per combo?

That's stance will not be combo damage heavy me Will range 25-30% BNB focusing strongly on 50/50 zoning and pressure zoning

I'm drooling with hype now

 

[DarksydeDash]

God this game is just so.. juicy. *_*

 

[Invincibeast]

Just rewatched the character breakdown. Kenjutsu looks like it has some massive combo potential, and for a bar you can end in a standing reset.
If we find a viable way to create a 50/50 from this situation we may be able to create a vortex.
@Pig Of The Hut are there any low starters and overheads in this variation?

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Possessed is the best

That is all lol

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

@Pig Of The Hut beautiful work! So balanced is your favorite so far?

Possessed

All three are tremendous though but possessed is f ing awesome

Yes

He loses his overhead special slash but he gains cool mix ups and an ermac ex lift like he had in MKD and MKD tele throw for a great ender and screen switcher

Df1 is an overhead sword special he can combo after w a bar linking an ex lift db4


Also I believe it's 332 mid mid low do u can mix up 33 OH special mentioned above

Also b2 is a OH sword swipe hit confirmable as well as f2

 

[DarksydeDash]

That is all lol
