Art of the Shokan
If Kintaro successfully blocks a special attack, he has a chance to retaliate with a jump stomp on the opponent, which applies fire DOT. Kintaro and his team take reduced damage from fire DOTs.
Role
Shokan Warrior Kintaro counters guarded special exchanges and reduces the team's Fire DOT burden.
Strengths
A successful response can turn blocking into a Fire application, while the shared reduction helps allies facing that specific DOT.
Weaknesses
Retaliation requires a successful block and a chance trigger; reduced Fire damage is not complete Fire immunity.
Best teams
A Fire amplifier can use his retaliation effect, while teammates vulnerable to Fire benefit from his defensive support.
Where to use
Choose him against Fire pressure and blockable specials, keeping another answer for direct attacks that bypass the needed guard.
