Gameplay Overview
Kensou is a character gravitating towards classic zoning. He gets a good projectile that is only a little worse than Athena's, as well as a DP-style reversal, and many good pokes. However, his hop is very floaty, and his meterless combos are very limited (although not quite as badly as Athena's). Kensou's mixups are also pretty basic. For this reason, more often than not, his playstyle will revolve around poking, frametrapping and zoning with his projectile.
Normals
Close
- cl.A/B/C/D are all cancellable
- cl.A/B chain into themselves and each other
Standing
- s.A is cancellable
- s.B is Kensou's furthest reaching normal and a decent hop killer
- s.C hits twice and is cancellable on the 2nd hit. It will connect both hits from a pretty far distance
- s.D is slow, but a decent anticipatory anti-air
Crouching
- cr.A/C are cancellable
- cr,A/B chain into themselves and each other.
Jump
- j.A/D are very solid jump in/combo starters
- j.B crosses up on standing opponents, but misses frequently on crouching ones
- Kensou lacks a solid crossup normal, but j.D acts as a fake crossup til the opponent understand there is nearly no risk of being crossed up.
- poor jump normals are mildly augmented by Dragon Tear special
Blowback
- s.CD is whiff cancellable
- j.CD has an interesting downward hitbox for jump ins.
Overall a pretty mediocre set of normals with some upsides.
