Mostly left without unique pressure options, Shun'ei will have a hard time against opponents that are willing to be patient, block, and time their throw techs appropriately. | ||

Gameplay Overview
Shun'ei is a midrange character with an emphasis on tricky movement and good straightforward pressure when he gets in. His mobility allows him to rapidly switch his game plan and create opportunities in neutral - backing up to stay safe and bait commitments from the opponent, or closing in with threatening pokes. |
