- Great Rushdown: Kitana's pressure consists of suffocating kara jabs, absurd throw range, solid mid staggers, difficult to anti air jump kicks and plus on block air fans.
- Great Jabs: Female ninjas and male ninjas have a similar LP range, but the female ninja LP has a lower hitbox. Female ninjas also have better throws than male ninjas.
- Great Throw: Kitana has a ridiculous throw range. The throw is also very plus on hit.
- Good Punishment Mode Combo Damage: Kitana punishes blocked teleports for around 50%.
- Female Ninja Hurtbox: Female ninjas can be difficult to juggle optimally. Some auto combos can whiff after jump punches against female ninjas.

- Weak Ground Combo Damage: Kitana's mid auto combo only does 23%.
- Weak Anti Airs: Kitana lacks powerful anti airs. She relies on spacing and movement to counter jumping attacks.
- No LK, HK, Sweep Punish: Kitana does not have a special move that punishes LK, HK or Sweep on block. Kitana's opponents will make use of these attacks to counter her kara jabs.
- Tall Running Hitbox: Kitana can not run under instant air projectiles like Kabal's instant air gas blast or Mileena's instant air sai.
