Haohmaru

Unfinished Entry

Haohmaru prepares for a shodown!

The Mii
Use the Takamaru Outfit and the Type 1 Low voice.

The Moves
Neutral special is his Cyclone Slash, having Haohmaru launch a small tornado forwards. Side special is his Earthquake Slice (Airborne Assault). Up special is Crescent Moon Slash (Hero's Spin). And down special is kinda made up. Basically he blocks the foe's attack then slashes back. (Blade Counter)

The Style
Samurai Shodown is known for brutal attacks that take away half of your health bar, so obviously he needs to use Demon Style.

The Spirits
Haohmaru's first spirit is Killing Edge Equipped. It may seem weird as Haohmaru has never dual wielded blades before, but one of the most important mechanics in SS is the ability to lose your weapon. Next is Critical Health Attack ↑ to represent rage. And finally Landing Lag ↓ because traditional fighting game.

Analysis
Haohmaru is a bait and punish character who can dish out powerful strikes, but must be careful not to be reckless.

Unlock Battle
To unlock Haohmaru, fight him on Omega Gaur Plain with Underdog Boost on. If a rule setting isn't listed, it is the default setting: Stage: Gaur Plain [Ω] Style: Stamina Stamina: 80 Stock: 3 FS Meter: Off Spirits: On CPU Lv.: 9 Underdog Boost: On Items: None

Summary
The Ray MK II with Demon Style: 1 Support Spirit with Killing Edge Equipped 1 Support Spirit with Critical Health Attack ↑ 1 Support Spirit with Landing Lag ↓
