Overview

Samurai is a well-rounded character that functions comfortably at all ranges but excels particularly at keeping the opponent at the mid range, where he can land his Overthrow sweetspot for good combos that leave him with potentially large amounts of Strength buffs. With a simple gameplan and the tools to run it, Samurai is a good option for any player.
