Ultra Fight Da! Kyanta 2/KKyanta

"Commander of the best of Inuneko."

Bio

In the Sengoku period, Katana Kyanta was a bodyguard for Tokugawa Ieyasu. He was feared throughout Japan as the Samurai Dog. His mastery of the Kyanta Force caused his spirit to linger after death. Because of the danger facing Kyanta and Masao, he is resurrected to defend them. His physical form will only last for a short time. He needs to hurry before it is too late!

Gameplay

When Kyanta picks up the Japanese steel, he is imbued with the knowledge of some of the most powerful sword-fighters in Japanese fighting game history. His delayed fireballs give him a safe approach. Now, his role is less clear, but Kyantana still has access to solid EX moves, a strong Super, and above-average air mobility.

Recommended: Stamina (please, plan on running him anchor)

Movelist

5A Give a man a 2 frame and he will take 120 damage Give a man a 2 frame and he will take 120 damage	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 5 Mid ? ? ? ? N/A ? ? N/A Simple 2f start-up jab with a disjointed front hitbox, a free get out of jail card. It may not look like much, but it's one of the most oppressive jabs in the game.

2A If stepping on LEGOs is bad imagine this If stepping on LEGOs is bad imagine this

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 5 Low ? ? ? ? N/A ? ? N/A Katana's way of mixing up, since both animations seem pretty similar. Shorter range than 5A. Can be used with both 5X and Super 1 to force the opponent to block and that way fill a little the BOKO bar, can be used after a 2X crossup to catch the opponent off-guard, also a good way to win the footsie/trade game when dealing with sweeps or other lows.

J.A Does it count as a Sex Kick if it's done with a third leg? Does it count as a Sex Kick if it's done with a third leg?

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 18 High (overhead) ? ? ? ? N/A ? ? N/A Disjointed sword poke from the air. Stops K. Kyanta's vertical momentum and floats him forward, making this a perfect move for adjusting your air spacing. More useful and reliable than 2B when trying to get in or going straight into the air game (please don't try to make air game all your gameplan, but if you do, trust 2A, it's quite good).

5B A kid running around with a knife A kid running around with a knife	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 18*2(34) Mid ? ? ? ? N/A ? ? N/A A forward-moving sword strike. It's a little slow, but it has a good anti-air hitbox if you can get it to connect. It's very damaging, as it seems impossible to only get one hit to connect.

2B they seriously needed a low profile they seriously needed a low profile	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 20 Low ? ? ? ? Knockdown ? ?? KD Shrinks Katana's hitbox significantly making it good for low profiling projectiles and standing jabs. Unsafe if done too close to the opponent.

J.B CHANCE TIME CHANCE TIME	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 14*6(84?) (55(?)) High (Overhead) ? ? Until Ground 0 N/A ? ? N/A Spinning sword attack. Lots of hits and damage, and keeps K. Kyanta in the air for a long time. If your opponent has a fireball, DP, or the balls to challenge it, it's probable you'll end up in the ground and disadvantage.

5X Don't you dare lecture me with a well thought neutral Don't you dare lecture me with a well thought neutral	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 10*3 (24) Mid ? Until Off-screen? ? 0 N/A ? ? N/A Kyanta sword. A three-hit fireball passed down by Ky Kiske. Gives K. Kyanta a god-tier oki game. It's slow in just the right way, so use it to position yourself for offense. <bk> Or you know, you can just throw it and then 2EX or j.EX for the mixup

2X Every Katana will do this unprovoked Every Katana will do this unprovoked

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 30 Mid ? ? ? ? N/A ? ? KD, KB K. Kyanta bounces off the wall behind him and attacks his opponent. More useful than what you might expect from similar moves. Can be quite a pain to punish. If you are smart/lucky enough you can set up a cross-up especially useful after letting Ultra 1 loose on neutral for you will be attacking the enemy from both sides granting a sweet boko/heavy super damage

J.X TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 10*3(24) Mid ? Until Off-screen or it hits the floor ? 0 N/A ? ? N/A Air Kyanta sword. It's useful in all the ways you should have learned from Guilty Gear. Can sometimes fail to combo properly when a character's reeling animation is sufficiently weird. Using this move is a massive power move for enemies tremble and run away into the corner at the mere sight of it. for no dp, nor airball nor EX is able to think of doing something as foolish as challenge it.

5EX Kid running with knife towards her mother Kid running with knife towards her mother	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 14*4 (48) Mid ? Until Off-screen ? ? (It has I just don't know it) Knockdown ? ? KD EX version of 5B. Lots of hits and damage. Safe on block. If you have meter and wanna hit the opponent to get out of the corner might as well go for it.

2EX *pulls up to your DM's and starts 2A/5Aing* *pulls up to your DM's and starts 2A/5Aing*	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 20 Low ? ? ? ? (It has I just don't know it) Knockdown ? ? KD, KB EX version of 2B. Goes very far, will get you through any projectile. If you have meter and wanna get out of the corner at all costs might as well go for it.

J.EX Back at it again at Demon Tower Back at it again at Demon Tower

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 20*6(?) (90(?)) Overhead ? ? Until Ground ? N/A ? ? KD EX version of j.B. It's hard to get all the hits to connect, but it will still do a load of damage/pressure regardless. While it conserves most of the properties from j.B it's completely invulnerable all the way up to Katana making a full spin, also seems to give Katana more momentum at the end that j.B, thus making it no the greatest move to start offensive or jump into your opponent's defense but guarantee a positive result in the airgame.

Ultra 1 (Y) Gaslight. Gatekeep. Girlboss. Gaslight. Gatekeep. Girlboss.

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 25*6 (120) Mid ? Until Off-screen ? ? N/A ? ? N/A Super Kyanta sword. Very slow and very big. It has a deceptive hitbox and parrying it seems to affect its momentum, so it can be very difficult to deal with. Try crossing up with 2X while your opponent is focused on the Ultra, that way you can get granted tons of damage. If the crossup fails, you still get the advantage by pressuring with 5A/2A on block until the sword comes to make the opponents boko bar cry. In case you don't go for this option right away you can cover the air with either j. A or j.B and it will probably throw the opponent into the sword. You can try and catch their toes by imputing 2EX after the super and then force an oki situation, if they had their toes covered go back to 5A/2Aing until it comes to you with help to break that boko bar. In conclusion, every Kyanta main wants to marry this moves and wonders why the hell you would run Ultra 2 or play Super Katana.

Ultra 2 (2Y) This move makes me sad This move makes me sad

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 32*4 (116) ? ? ? Until Ground All the way? N/A ? ? ? Super version of 2X. Very difficult to get all the hits to connect, and generally far less useful than Ultra 1. Even if it has invul all the way, it goes up constantly so it doesn't even matter if you don't get a clan hit, and even if you do it might drop. We can't recommend it. And no, YOU can't make it work.

Grab (AB) SHAMK SHAMK	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect 40 Grab ? ? ? 0 Knockdown Knockdown N/A KD It looks brutal, but it also has it's uses. Meterless followups are possible in corner. And in case you wanna give multiple stabs to your opponent's pride and mentality follow it up by a 5A to Ultra 1 on the corner and enjoy some easy but heavy damage.

Taunt (Select) F**k this one ant in particular F**k this one ant in particular	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Invuln Adv. Hit Adv. Block Adv. Parry Effect Gives K. Kyanta's next hit +20 damage. N/A ? N/A ? N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Gives K. Kyanta's next hit +20 damage. Easy enough to get out when behind a Kyanta sword. Generally not that worthy.
