Under Night In-Birth/UNI2/Enkidu

Story

Enkidu's tireless pursuit of martial arts perfection leads him to combat with ever-stronger opponents.

After tiring of fighting mere humans, he began challenging In-Births.
Even given their supernatural prowess, only a handful of In-Births stood a chance against Enkidu; he even managed to defeat Paradox, who was considered the strongest of them all.
Just when it seemed Enkidu had lost sight of his purpose, his gaze fell on a single target: the Re-Birth Kuon the Aeon.
Then a man appeared before Enkidu and told him, ""If you join me, I can introduce you to the Aeon...""

Thus begins Enkidu's final battle.

“

In the grand scheme of things,
special powers don't matter much.
The strong will win. The weak will not.

”

Gameplay

Enkidu is an unconventional mid-range footises-oriented character who struggles profoundly with closing in, but can put the rest of the cast to shame with his potential damage against a cornered opponent. He lacks projectiles, meterless reversals, full-screen normals, unreactable or vortexing mixups, and high-mobility specials, but in exchange, has access to great counterhit fishing, some rather crafty hurtbox shifting, and astounding corner damage.

Owing to his generally anemic neutral game and unsafe pokes, paired with his high damage output and conversion potential, much of Enkidu’s game plan relies on making fewer mistakes than the opponent and extending advantageous situations. This character is for people that wish to be challenged in the realm of decision making, rather than in terms of their execution or raw game knowledge.

Overall, Enkidu is best described as a high-damage character who can struggle to compensate for his somewhat difficult and linear neutral game.

Strengths	Weaknesses
Good Damage And Demonic Corner Pressure: Your stagger windows on normals are especially long, and his combo reward in the corner is to be feared. He overall has solid reward from any hit, both with and without meter. Havoc: His unique trait, Havoc, makes whiffing any move against Enkidu unideal at best, terrifying at worst. This combined with his good mid-range presence makes for an opponent that is very scared to do anything aside from block, which Enkidu can very easily abuse. Strong Call-Outs and Metered Reversal: Parry can punish opponents who mash out of blockstun, and keep otherwise easy punishes in check. The A version also acts as a meterless reversal due to CS giving it frame 1 startup. 6FF is a new addition that also more aggressively punishes your opponent for trying to contest your mid-range. 4C is a classic button that pulls your hurtbox back and punishes projectiles, jump-ins, and poorly spaced normals. Strong Anti-Projectile Options: Enkidu has access to numerous moves that have anti-projectile or guard point properties such as 4C, 3C/3[C], 236C, 214X, and 6FF/6[FF].	Poor Neutral Outside of Mid-Range: Enkidu is forced to play a slow and steady neutral game via dash blocking, and in general does not have ways to pressure without being up-close. Weak to Whiff-Punishes: Enkidu’s normals have high recovery in general, meaning he has to take higher risks when throwing them out in neutral or when trying to mash out of pressure. Limited Defense Without Meter: Enkidu does not have meterless reversal options without access to CS. Enkidu also has no 5f normal, as both 5A and 2A have 6f startup which weaken his opportunities for mashing out or punishing certain moves.

Unique Trait	Havoc - Enkidu's attacks gain additional damage and 9 additional frames of hitstun when they connect with an opponent in a recovery state (not necessarily just counter hits). Havoc does not activate off Enkidu's A normals or throws. Rekka inputs will re-apply Havoc bonus damage. For example: 5CCC would apply it thrice, as would the 236X rekka series. 5BBB will only apply Havoc bonus damage on the initial 5B, but additional meter generation and hitstun remain. This bonus damage is dealt as damage over time and cannot kill.
Vorpal Trait	Havoc applies an additional 6 frames of hitstun.

Good for catching backdashes.
The 2nd hit moves Enkidu slightly forward and is only -1 on block, making it great for setting up a throw

5B has good range and a strong hitbox, and starts strong combos on Havoc.
5BB has foot invincibility.
5BBB causes tumble, and can generally be linked back into another normal like 2A or 5B depending on the starter.
5BBBC resembles 5C but follows the same cancel rules as the other rekka buttons.
The followups aren't in passing link and can only be EX or CS cancelled and have very terrible stagger windows, making them very unsafe moves on block. Avoid using at all costs.

This is a very useful jump-in move, especially during assault, and Enkidu's main jump-in starter.

j.CC sends aerial opponents flying forward on hit and wall bounces in the corner.

Used mainly as combo filler for corner carry or to combo into Veil Off at the corner.

*6C creates a second shockwave hitbox after Enkidu hits the ground.

- This hitbox is a mid and is safer on block.
- Enkidu's hurtbox moves back a lot during the animation, allowing him to potentially beat out some lows.
6[C] has longer startup but hits high.
Shockwave be cancelled into 22B with a 4f gap to end your blockstring at +2.

Enkidu brings his hands forward to create a pulse of energy in front of him.

One of Enkidu's best moves due to its incredible utility. Anti-air, anti-mash, anti-projectile, it does it all.
- Useful anti-air attack due to the high vertical hitbox and head-invulnerability.
- Enkidu's hurtbox is retracted very early in the animation, letting him beat many stubby normals.
- Crumples on hit. Combined with Havoc, trading with 4C can easily net Enkidu a full combo.
- Deletes single hit projectiles.
- Enkidu can special cancel after nullifying a projectile.
4[C] can delete multi-hit projectiles and, with proper timing, multiple projectiles (Akatsuki's 236C)
- 4[C] greatly extends the time Enkidu's hurtbox is retracted.

Enkidu rolls forward, plants one hand on the ground, and does a handstand kick.

A very solid anti-air attack, though the angle does not cover everything.
3C is useful as a launcher in combos.
3[C] has Enkidu roll a greater distance before kicking. It can also be cancelled into any EX or CS from the increase effect until the kick comes out. This has numerous applications such as letting him roll toward his opponent and cancel into an EX.
- The roll is projectile-invulnerable until the kick, making it an effective anti-zoning tool. Can be CS canceled before the kick comes out to close the gap and stay safe.

Enkidu does a forward moving elbow strike. Both versions have guard point until the first active frame that will absorb any non-throw hit . This option lets him blow through his opponent's strikes or projectiles and is an aggressive alternative to his 214X parry.

6FF gains guard point on frame 7 until first active frame. Will crumple grounded opponents on hit leading to a combo. On hit or block you can only cancel into 214A/B or CS.
Opponents cannot cancel when making contact with the guard point with the exception of projectile/object property moves (ex. Chaos's Azhi attacks). The hitstop duration experienced by the opponent when they make contact using strike based moves prevents them from cancelling until 6FF is active.

6[FF] gains guard point on frame 13 until first active frame. This version is cancellable into any special or EX block or hit. If the guard point is triggered during startup, then Enkidu gains the ability to whiff cancel at any point starting from the last frame of guard point.
Opponents may cancel their attack with any on hit option when making contact with the guard point as long as it is between frame 13-31. Attacks that make contact after frame 32 will not be able to be cancelled in time due to the hitstop with the exceptions of projectile/object based moves.

Universal reversal that blows the opponent back on hit.

Requires at least 100 meter and puts you in Veil Off state which grants 20% more damage, but drains your meter at a slow rate.
Meter drains much slower when health is below 30% (orange health).

Cancels an action and launches the opponent high into the air on hit.

CVO cancel is treated the same as EX cancel; you can only CVO when you can EX and the opponent is in hit/blockstun.
- Including in the air.
Requires at least 100 meter and consumes Vorpal state and drains meter at a fast rate.
Has a lot of hitstun, making it easy to combo from.
Allows for an additional bounce in the combo if two have been used so far, without hitting the combo bounce limit.
Pressing A+B+C can be used for a shortcut for Infinite Worth.
Used mostly as a way to tack on extra damage, or to reliably close out the round.

Frame advantage is calculated on a standing Hyde.
623A covers the lowest height.
623B goes a bit higher.
- A bit trickier to confirm with than 623A.
623C goes the highest, and adds a third kick.
- One of Enkidu's reversal moves.
623A and 623B are Enkidu's go-to corner combo tools, used for the famous upkick loop.

22C 100 EXS	1514	Mid, Air	1+8	15	20	+4	CS	Strike	1~3 Throw

A fast, fearsome stomp that creates a pillar of energy.

22A has modest combo utility.
- Mainly used in pressure to create gapless strings when the opponent has CS.
22B is slower, but stronger and more useful.
- Very useful to create a 4f gap and frame trap after 6C/4C/2[C].
22[B] provides significant frame advantage, but with significant startup.
22C is arguably the highest utility move in Enkidu's entire kit.
- Canceling into this can render all of Enkidu's pressure safe.
- Unlike 22A/B, it also has a significant anti-air hitbox.

Enkidu enters a stance and punishes any attempt to strike him.

All versions of 214X can be cancelled on whiff with CS.
Frame data is specifically for the follow-up attack that occurs when the parry is activated.
214A sends opponents straight into the ground behind Enkidu.
- This move can activate if any attack connects during frames 4~22 of its animation.
- When performed immediately after using CS, this range changes to frames 1~23.
- If activated by certain attacks like projectiles or those with disjointed hitboxes, Enkidu can cancel 214A into anything before going into the follow-up attack.
214B launches opponents in the air behind Enkidu.
- This move can activate if any attack connects during frames 7~16 of its animation.
- Enkidu can confirm into a combo after a successful parry without needing to spend resources.
214C has Enkidu send his opponent flying with a mighty kick.
- This move can activate if any attack connects during frames 1~27 of its animation.
- Is completely invulnerable for the duration of the animation, which makes it useful to escape setups like Byakuya's webs.
- Steals one GRD block on hit
- If it's used immediately after Chain Shift, it gains the following attributes:
  - Hit count is increased from 3 to 5
  - Deals additional damage
  - Steals an additional GRD block
  - Horizontal and vertical range is increased
  - Frame advantage is increased from -6 to -2

Enkidu performs a dive kick.

Frame advantage was calculated at point blank range and lowest possible height.
j.236A is quicker and travels a slightly shorter distance.
j.236B is not as quick and travels a slightly greater distance at a slightly different angle.
j.236C is the fastest version, and virtually unpunishable.
Overall, a useful tool in neutral when TK'd and a combo staple.

360C 100 EXS	1864	Unblockable	1+6		Total 44(whiff)	-	(CS)	Throw	1~7 Throw

EX Command Grab. This is techable similar to Waldstein's B command grab. Against a shielding opponent it will become untechable and break their shield. On successful hit, it will wall bounce the opponent anywhere on screen giving an opportunity to get a full combo or as a combo extension. Pairs well with his 3[C] which lets him roll toward his opponent and cancel into 360C during the roll animation to grab his opponent by surprise.

Techable when not used in a combo or as a punish.
Not recommended for use by beginners who are not experienced with predicting or reacting to shields. The cost of your opponent teching the throw is a loss of 100 meter, net difference of 4 GRD blocks, and giving your opponent frame advantage which can easily snowball into losing the round.

Enkidu charges up his EXS energy and reaches forward to forcefully channel it all into his opponent. If there's nothing in reach, he releases it all like a fireball.

Frame advantage is from blocking the first hit only.
If Enkidu connects up close, the IW will play out in full. Otherwise, he launches an energy mass that cannot be avoided with projectile-invulnerable moves.
If the fireball connects, Enkidu has time to combo off of the wall bounce.
Close-up version of IW is air unblockable as of CLR.
