Gameplan

Patience and solid defensive play is a must, but Gamagoori is capable of rushing down his opponents too thanks to his far reaching normals and hard to avoid guard breaks. He may be slow on the ground, but he has the highest amount of health in the game. This allows him to take lots of abuse from both himself and the opponent. You cannot sit in Shackle Regalia all day however, as it counts as blocking and a guard break will knock you out of it.

Gamagoori excels at a medium range due to his whips and will deal absurd amount of damage with enough damage charge. If he gets a hit in, you will feel it. He struggles somewhat with projectiles, so the aforementioned patience must be used. Valor is somewhat important to him, as the cap of DC going from 100% to 300% will serve as a large boon.

Close Ranged Attacks

5A Right Straight of Destruction Discipline: Double Discipline: Slam Discipline: Cruel Restraint

Version Damage Startup On Hit On Block Counter Hit 5A 600 50 Sliding Knockdown - +300 Damage Only available at 0% DC. Li'l baby punch with a long startup. Try to not have this move come out, otherwise you're liable to be punished. Replaces any grounded followup if DC depletes to 0%. Can cancel into d.b or 5AAC. 5A (DC) 240 to 400 17 Knockdown - +90 to +300 Damage Max DC Consumption: 10% Gamagoori whips to the left then to the right with a large amount of range. A good all around starter. Hits twice, and comes out a bit faster than 4/6A. Please note how damage is recorded for moves that require DC. The lower number is if you do not have the full amount of DC required for the move, and the higher number is if you do. In this case, having 10% DC will yield 480 total damage while having any less will yield only 160 total damage. 5AA 360 to 600 23 Knockdown - +90 to +300 Damage Max DC Consumption: 10% Gamagoori slams his whips onto the ground, bouncing the opponent off the ground and up into the air. 5AAA (Ender) 1200 to 2000 37 Sliding Knockdown N/A N/A Max DC Consumption: 30% Only available if 5AA hits. The infamous "Whip of Love". An ender that trades a good chunk of DC for a good chunk of damage. However, cannot be followed up.
