Introduction
Thanks to his training under Nicotine Kafuin, Haohmaru is a bona fide b-ball prodigy with a keen eye for three pointers and a propensity for slam dunks. Neither of these things really lend themselves to sword duels, but he makes it work anyways.
Hoahmaru Haohmaru, the face of the Samurai Shodown franchise, appears once again with all the classic Haohmaru buttons, Haohmaru damage and Haohmaru simplicity you know him for. With a solid projectile in Senpuu Retsuzan and a great DP in Kogetsuzan, he's strong and very familiar, making him great to learn the game with if you're just getting started.
Slash lets Haohmaru control space with his air specials, which he can do from a backdash in true SNK fashion. His toolkit opens up some fairly basic yet rewarding combos, with even the shortest backhit loop ending in Zankousen for huge damage. He gets pretty far on basic honest SamSho gameplay, even in a game that doesn’t heavily rewards such things. Slash’s struggles are due purely to his overall honesty, but his funky space control gives him just enough spice to hang with the rest of the crowd.
Bust loses the good longer range neutral tools from his other Technique, instead becoming SamSho 3’s most infamous gorilla and gaining numerous moves that handily outshine Slash in offensive potential. Chief among them are the completely stifling Senpuu Ha and Gou Ha, both of which are terrors in close range footsies and staples in his infamous combo game to boot. If you want to not think and play the best character in the game, Bust is the way to go.
