Kenji build and suggested teammates' brawlers for hot zone maps with a single zone.
Dashi Dash
Kenji's basic attack only uses Dash for the next 3 seconds.
Nigiri Nemesis
After avoiding damage for 5 seconds, gets 60% damage reduction from the next enemy attack.
Damage
Deal 15% extra Damage when your Brawler is below 50% Health.
Shield
Gain extra 900 Health as a consumable Shield. The shield regenerates in 10 seconds, when at full health.
Guide
The dashi dash gadget can be really useful even though most of the people pick the hosomaki healing.
I suggest it because timing it correctly can get you to the zone with an immunity shield for the first 1 second, and enemies who didn't notice it will waste their ammo.The correct timing to use it:
1) Move towards the zone immediately after you respawn.
2) When at exactly 2.5 ammo (almost full ammo) use the gadget and quickly aim to the zone and shoot many times (around 2/3 depending on the map) until you get there.
3) You will get there really quickly with an immunity shield for 1 second.WARNING:
If you have already reached the edge of the safe, do not waste one more ammo to head even further even if your gadget is still enabled and hadn't run out of time. This will make you an easy kill for the enemy team because you will not have any ammo left to attack them and your immunity shield will have just run out of time. Instead, wait on the edge of the zone to fill up one more ammo and get to 2. Don't worry, you will not get killed, because you will still have your immunity shield. After acquiring 2 ammo dash diagonally to just the enemies' attacks, then slash.I hope this is a really good guide to help you with your push
GOOD LUCK 🤞
Game Modes
Hot Zone
Really good mode for Kenji because his super can cover a good % of the map
Do not play hot zone maps with 2 zones
Works Well With
Tara
Tara can trap the enemies with her super and Kenji can super at the super's exact position making it an easy team-wipe
Berry
Berry can cover the zone with heals, and consistently damage the enemies and heal the alies from a small distance (or even better behind a wall)
