Guide
Kenji can be deadly if you play him right. If you play someone who does high damage at close range you have to be careful. Try to slice them then dash away and repete. If it is a brawl with low dps, just go in and kill them.
Game Modes
Gem Grab
He is good with the gems, as he can escape, hunt enemies down and can have good control over the map.
Brawl Ball
He can team wipe if you use your super right. He can also dribble like a Mortis.
Duo Showdown
If you have a good teammate you will absolutely cook if you play him right. Don't be afried to control mid and being agresive.
Works Well With
Poco
Poco, or most support brawler will be good as he is an aggressive type brawler.
Gray
It will help him get around the map faster.
