A very fast but decently long range poke with good horizontal priority. Easily Kaede's best grounded poke due to being incredibly noncommital and stuffing most approach attempts. Notably it can also combo into most specials depending on your range, with DP in particular being very consistent at even longer ranges.

A short jab with a deceptively high priority hitbox. This is likely going to be your primary combo starter in power mode, as it links into itself easily and can be used to great effect in disadvantage due to its fast and disjointed hitbox.

A fairly slow normal with moderate range and is unsafe on block. Notably can combo into tatsu from a significant distance away from the opponent, making it a solid punish tool in power mode against unsafe blockstrings.

A long range poke which is deceptively safe at max range. Typically doesn't lead to much damage due to not being cancelable (especially so in speed/EX), but can leave you with solid frame advantage. Does a sizable chunk of damage on counter hit in power mode, and comes out very quickly in speed/EX.

A normal which doesn't lead to anything, and despite the animation, doesn't require a low deflect. Inferior to standing A in almost every way. In speed or EX, you can continue chaining off of it if chained into from standing A, but it's still generally worse than just following up with the second hit of standing A.

A slow poke with a high priority hitbox and decent anti-air priority late into the animation. Not very useful in neutral due to being less rewarding than other options and being incredibly committal. Can be useful for far reaching speed chains due to the move's range.

A relatively slow jump in with a large hitbox. Not as useful as it looks due to extending Kaede's hurtbox as far as the hitbox goes, but notably serves as his most damaging jump in.

A high-flying DP which can function as a committal anti-air. However, it's more useful as a combo ender thanks to its high meterless damage, fast startup, and causing a soft knockdown afterwords. Notably, the first part of the move is a multihit, and if the second hit uncombos the opponent is able to ground tech and punish you on hit.

A tatsu like function with long startup. It's super cancelable in power mode, so using it as a combo ender while you're at close range can prove to be very punishing. Incredibly unsafe on block and easy to stuff on reaction, so it's a terrible tool in neutral.

A slower version of qcb A that ends in an overhead. Notably you gain enough hit advantage after the launch to OTG from midscreen. This is generally seen as the inferior version of Kaede's tatsu due to being unable to be combo'd into, and even worse in neutral due to the opponent gaining additional options for how they wish to punish you on block.

  • Kaede runs forward to deliver 3 slashes
  • B version ends in a knockdown

An air fireball which catches deflects and causes a soft knockdown. It's easy to force a trade due to the projectile not getting deleted after getting hit, and will trade with most moves favorably, making this a viable tool to escape tech chase situations. Be warned that upon landing you will recieve a sizeable amount of recovery, so Kaede will be left punishable if the opponent avoids the fireball, which most characters can do simply by jumping. Can be canceled off IOH jumping C in order to make your instant overhead cause a soft knockdown against big bodies, but this is still punishable on block.

The projectile fired from this version has identical properties to the A version, but this time Kaede will hop backwards slightly upon using the move instead of following his original jump arc. Thanks to the airstall this provides, it allows Kaede even more options during tech chase situations and improves his disadvantage state even further. Can also be used to beat out most anti-airs thanks to said airstall. Be warned that you will have the same landing recovery as before, only now kaede has been in the air for longer before landing, allowing for very high damage punishes if you get caught overusing this move. Typically unsafe on block from close range.

A roll which can crossup the opponent, even in the corner. Notably doesn't provide any invincibility, rather shortening Kaede's hurtbox. Very reactable, and can often be punished with a full combo if the opponent is aware of it, as such it is not a very useful tool in either mode against characters with matchup experience.

  • Kaede rolls forward
  • possibly ends up on opposite site of opponent, but may leave him vulnerable

A simple air-throw. Doesn't lead to much advantage on hit, and has fairly poor anti-air priority. It's primary use is as a combo tool, due to being possible to "rejump" into from certain setups. Is also part of Kaede's optimal command grab confirms in all three modes.

A very fast and rewarding command grab. Relatively fast animation on whiff, but still punishable on reaction and has the same range as a regular throw. A cornerstone of Kaede's mixup game in all modes, due to his lackluster high/low opportunities. Learning to cancel into this move off a dash is invaluable, as it's a very fast but rewarding whiff punish for many long range pokes and supers.

  • Kaede does a small assault, allows for further juggling after finishes.
