Stand Off

5A

The calm before the storm

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=Yes Air-UB
Straight jab punch. Can combo into several other normals. Kakyoin's fastest Stand Off normal. Combo Filler.

5B (Close)

Would have actually been a decent anti-air

Proximity normal. Kakyoin performs a straight high kick. While it does come out faster than the far version, its hitbox covers a very weird area, which makes this move ineffective against most crouching or short characters. This move can combo into most dashing normals and 5B (Far).

5B (Far)

How milquetoast.

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=Yes Air-UB
Kakyoin performs a straight mid-level kick. Very bland move with not much use.

5C

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S HAPPENING SO I GUESS I'LL PRESS THIS

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=Yes Air-UB
Hierophant appears on top of Kakyoin to use his Drill, hitting the opponent twice. Strong normal with good priority, and a massive disjoint. Powerful panic button in almost any scenario.

2A

Don't You (Forget About Me)

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=Yes Air-UB
Kakyoin does a quick low kick. Can combo into most normals. Can be easily forgettable due to Kakyoin have options like nets to start combos and moves like 2B and 5C to counterpoke with, but is a good combo starter nonetheless. Hits low.

2B

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S HAPPENING BUT I WANT TO HIT LOW SO I GUESS I'LL PRESS THIS

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=No Scales=No Air-UB
Hierophant Green turns its arm into a drill and attacks the opponent's legs. Comes out very fast and has decent range. Good poke and counterpoke. Hits low.

Friendly reminder that even the best opponents will have habits that you can exploit, like leaving their homes unlocked or sleeping with the lights off.

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=No Scales=No Air-UB
Hierophant Green attacks the opponent twice with its arms. Good move to end combos with as it gives very good oki. Don't overuse this. Only the first hit is low. Second hit can whiff at max range.

3B

The move equivalent of slamming your pinky toe on the coffee table

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=No Air-UB
Kakyoin performs his 2A low kick while moving towards the opponent. Absolutely useless.

j.A

When the imposter has better active frames!😳

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIp	IPS=No Scales=No High
Quick jab pointing downwards. Comes out fast and deals high damage. Useful during combo extensions into Nets.

j.B

Dude's built like a twig

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	SP	IPS=Yes Scales=No High
A far-reaching kick. Slower than j.A and does less damage, but covers more range and has more active frames. Best hitbox for jump-ins.

j.C

Welcome... To the True Kusoge World.

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	SP	IPS=No Scales=No High
Hierophant turns its arm into a drill and hits the opponent twice. Has an insane disjoint and will beat almost every other air move. But, the hitbox is kind of high and will whiff shorter characters. Does high damage.

Dashing

665A

JAB FACTORY

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=Yes Air-UB
5A, but dashing. You will maybe use this for a cheeky air-ub hit when they have 1HP left, otherwise it has no use.

665B/665C

Time to abuse those ice physics

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=No Air-UB
Kakyoin performs his kick attack while dashing. Used to confirm into his Tandem attack in Stand Off. The Roll Cancel is only on whiff, but can allow you to dodge some supers on reaction (S.on Knives). Not safe on block, but can create some ghetto pressure by repeatedly dashing and cancelling into net, or even remote mode for a cheeky mixup. B and C are both the same move in every single way except for damage, which C does more.

662A

In case you weren't already scared of blocking high while 30 feet away

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=Yes Scales=Yes Air-UB
This is your main combo starter in stand off (aside from...you know.). The extra range from dashing momentum more than makes up for the slightly slower startup.

662B

FNAF Jumpscare

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=No Scales=No Air-UB
Oddly more plus than the regular version, but they're both cancellable so who cares. Has more range than 662A, so can be slightly better for poking, but honestly this move is very underwhelming.

662C

And he goes forward and he runs and he starts shooting, and he gets backstabbed by a spy that's been sitting with the cloak and dagger in the corner for at least the last 68 seconds.

Startup	Active	Recovery	Damage	Guard
WIP	WIP	WIP	WIP	-
Hit Adv.	Block Adv.	Pushblock Adv.	Cancel	Properties
WIP	{{{block}}}	-	WIP	IPS=No Scales=No Air-UB
Good range due to dashing momentum, safe on block, and leads to HKD on hit. Overally pretty decent. Important to note though that due to pushback, cancelling the second hit on block into net will mean the net will be out of range of the opponent, so be careful.
