Overview

Statistics

Faction Samurai
Type Assassin
Weapon Katana

Pros

  • Very agile. Good balance of harassment and Counter Attack abilities.
  • Excellent damage, attack speed and versatile dashing strikes.

Cons

  • Blocking requires timing, guard returns to neutral after a short time.
  • Requires constant use of Heroes high mobility offensively and defensively.

Strategy

The Orochi has excellent mobility that can be used to evade and deal impressive damage. With dash strikes in each direction and Ripetide Strike the Orochi is intended to out maneuver his opponent and counter strike. To assist that game plan the Orochi has one of the fastest and most damaging Top Light Attacks which has a guaranteed Light Attack follow up and a Guardbreak that guarantees a damaging Top Heavy Attack.

Like other Assassin's your mixup plan is to alternate Light Attack directions and use Guard breaks while you have Stamina then retreat and use your dashing strikes as safe pokes to wittle at your opponent.
