Hokuto no Ken/Rei

Introduction

Rei is a speedy, movement-based character, having access to a wide array of air moves and the ability to triple jump. He has very powerful normals, many being jump-cancelable, which allow him to keep up the pressure without the use of gauge. He has a strong defense as well, with a great uppercut reversal move as well as his Danko super, which essentially works to deny the opponent the chance to do a wakeup mixup on you. His star-taking ability is quite good, but he also has very practical 100% combos. While using Rei to his full potential requires a great deal of player skill and ad lib, he is also the perfect beginner character, with an easy to understand offense as well as relatively simple and damaging combos. That being said, let us start this section off by listing Rei's main strengths and weaknesses.

Strengths:

• Is the only character is the game with an air throw and the ability to triple jump
• Good at getting out of pressure thanks to his dragon punch and Danko super
• Most of his normal moves can be Jump Canceled
• Decent star removing abilities
• Has many practical 100% combos

Weaknesses:

• Has the longest crouching recovery in the game; some character's have crouching-Rei-specific infinites

Before diving right into the combos be sure to familiarize yourself with Rei's special/super moves and important normals.

Standing

Close A

5F Startup, 3F Active, +2F on block

Far A

5F Startup, 3F Active, +4F on block

The other 5F normal. Same usage as close A but is smaller vertically. Whiffs on Mamiya, Rei, Shin, and Jagi crouch blocking. Whiffs on Souther and Toki neutral crouching. Jump cancelable

Close B

8F Startup, 4F Active, +3 on block

Low kick that is a mid. Not much usage from this button due to it's lack of hitstun. Jump cancelable

Far B

7F Startup, 4F Active, +4 on block

Excellent midrange poke. Confirms into 2D except on crouching Jagi. Jump cancelable

Close C

Close D

9F Startup, 4F Active, -3 on block

Excellent button for pressure with a lot of blockstun. Can go into instant airdash or 2D. Combos into banishing attack except on crouching Jagi where you would use 2D. Also combos into IAD j.B. Jump cancelable

Far D

14F Startup, 3F Active, 0 on block

Low invulnerable button. Can confirm into banishing strike by kara canceling 2D into CD as 2D~2C. Also confirms into Grave Shoot. Surprisingly not jump cancelable

Faster crouching normal. Jump cancelable

A version: 11F Startup, Active until it touches the floor, +25F after reflection
B version: 11F Startup, Active until it touches the floor, +90F after reflection

Excellent air to ground projecctile with utility in: stalling in the air to mess up anti air timing, having an active projectile to follow behind in order force a response from the opponentand start pressure, and being a mixup tool with boost. j236A version bounces up off of the ground. j236B glides on the floor.

Air 623C: 9F Startup, 25F Active

214C: 20F Startup, 12F Active, -9 on block
214C 214C: 12 Startup, 5F Active, -11 on block

Dribble Setups

Note: Be sure to read the movement boost section under advanced techniques before attempting dribbles / basket.

Basic Dribble Pattern

Version #1

[dribble activates] d.5A (up to 50 hits) > [5C > IAD j.B] (up to 60 hits) > [5C > f.5C > IAD j.B] (up to 72 hits) > [2Ax10 > 2C > IAD j.B] or [j.ABC ]xN (basket pattern until 100%)

Version #2

[dribble activates] d.5A (up to 50 hits) > 5A > IAD j.B > 5A > CD > 5A > IAD j.B > 5A > A+C > sj. 236+D > [j.A > j.B] xN

Mid Screen Dribble from 2D

2B > 2B > 2D > IAD > j.C > 5C > j.AC > 236+D > 66 j.B > j.C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.C > 5A > 5A > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC > 5Ax5 > Boost > 5A (use movement boost technique here: 5A~E) > 5Ax5 > 623+C > 236+E~C > j.B or 214+E~C > IAD j.B > 5C > IAD j.B > 5A > Dribble

Notes: Use 214+E~C on Jagi instead of 236+E~C

There are 3 routes:

1) IAD j.C > 5C > j.A > [j.B] > j.C Route 2) IAD > j.C > 5C > IAD > j.A > j.C Route 3) IAD j.C > 5C > 623+A > 236+C route

Options after crossing up with 99C (character dependent):

1) 2A > 5A 2) 5A > 5A (Heart) 3) 2A > 5C (Juda) 4) 5A > 5C (Jagi / Heart) 5) 5A (Mamiya / Jagi)

On Mamiya use this for the movement boost 5A part:

623+A > 236+C > 5Ax3 > Boost > 5A (5A~E movement boost) > 5Ax2 > Boost > 5Ax5 > 623+C (6 hits) > 236+E~C > j.B > 5C > IAD j.B > 5A > d.5A > dribble

It's quite hard to crossup Heart using the standard mid screen setup so use this instead:

Video Sample

(starting from almost full screen) 2B > 2B > 2D > IAD j.C > 5C > IAD j.AC > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.C (switch sides) > 5A > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC > 5Ax5 > Boost > 5A > 5Ax5 > Boost > 5A > 5Ax3 > 623+C (6 hits) > 236+E~C > j.B > 5C > IAD j.B > 5A > d.5A > Dribble

Corner 623+C+E Dribble (Standard Setup)

Video Sample

2B > 2B > 2D > IAD j.C > 5C > j.AC > 236+D > 66 j.BC > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 9~C > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC > 623+C (5) > E~j.C > 5A > 623+E+C (6) > 236+E~C > j.B or 214+E~C > IAD j.B > 5C > IAD j.B > 5A > d.5A > Dribble

Notes:

Insert 5A before 623+C on Toki and Raoh.

Use 9C > 623+A or 96AC > 623+A on Toki (skip 5C if you want the corner cross up setup) and use 96AC instead of 9C on Raoh/Mamiya (don't skip 5C).

Use 96AC > 623+E+C instead of 99AC > 623+C on Mamiya. Remember that the 2nd dp is ALSO a 623+E+C since you have to HSC the jab.

So on Mamiya the setup looks like this:

2B > 2B > 2D > IAD j.C > 5C > j.AC > 236+D > 66 > j.BC > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC >5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC > [5A] > 623+E~C (5 hits) > E~j.C > 5A > 623+E~C (6 hits) > 236+E~C > j.B > 5C > IAD j.B > 5A > d.5A > Dribble

Hyakuretsu Setup

2B > 2B > 2D > IAD j.C > 5C > j.AC > 236+D > 66 j.BC > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 9C > 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC > 5A > 5C > Super (17 hits) or 5C > 623+A > 236+C > 96 j.AC > Super (22 hits)

Note: On Raoh replace 5C for 5A to make the corner hyakuretsu a bit easier since Raoh is a heavy type character.

Possible to Super > basket for less meter: Heart, Shin, Rei, Kenshiro, Souther, Raoh
