Kenji Masterclass

Knowing your matchups: Kenji is a short-range brawler with moderate DPS. Rushing in against short-range DPS powerhouses (like Shelly and Bull) is a suicide mission. Instead, try dashing toward them, quickly slash them, and dash away before you’re cooked. Kenji as an assassin also has a very fast movement speed, so you can use this and the previously mentioned strategy to avoid more incoming projectiles, farm your Hypercharge and Super, and grind your opponent’s health down. Always know your upcoming attack: just flash your attack joystick to check. Use dashes to close the gap between you and your opponent, especially on open maps. Remember, Kenji’s attacks pierce, so take advantage of this with clumped-up opponents to charge your Super and Hypercharge more quickly and to deal a lot of damage.Aim your Super: Kenji slashes twice in an X pattern, the first slash away from him and the next slash intersecting it. Keep this in mind. Knowing the order and direction of your slashes can help increase the probability of hitting a projectile.Use the heal gadget quickly, and don’t hesitate. Waiting too long trying to heal more health may reduce the amount of regeneration, as the time span is only three seconds. Kenji is a high-skill cap brawler, but if you master his mechanics, you’ll be a demon on the battlefield. Good Luck!LET HIM COOK!
