Strengths

Weaknesses

Great Rushdown: Noob's pressure consists of kara jabs and mid launchers. His walk speed allows more efficient use of run meter during run jabs.
Male Ninja Normals: Male Ninjas have a great LP, HP, HK, RH and Uppercut.
Glitch Jab Launcher: Noob has two launchers (HPHPdLPHP, HPHPLP) that begin with HP, so they can be glitch jab option selected.
Increased Health: Noob takes around 75% of normal damage. Noob also does not take chip damage after the first hit of a blocked auto combo.
Universal Relaunch: Noob can relaunch every character in the game no matter what.
Fast Walk Speed: Noob has the fastest walk speed in the game. Even faster than Human Smoke.

Male Ninja Hurtbox: The Male Ninja hurtbox is the status quo for UMK3 combos. Expect most combos to work against you.
Poor Throw: The Male Ninja throw is negative on hit. At worst, it is universally punishable by uppercut in the corner.
No Special Moves: Noob does not possess any special moves.
Tall Running Hurtbox: Noob cannot run under instant air projectiles like Kabal's instant air Gas Blast or Mileena's instant air Sai.

Move List

Basic Moves

The Male Ninjas have excellent basic moves, good height and range on everything in relation to their sprite proportions, their roundhouse is extra wicked and can connect in almost any situation. The only thing that can be weird about them is their aaHPs. Sometimes they tend to miss in situations where you wouldn't expect them to and this is due to kara canceling with run to speed the last hit up, in this situation, often you can do aaHP,LP and it'll work, with slightly less damage, otherwise, always take an extra small step in before doing aaHPs.
