I feel you 😁 i want to play him, but i just can't 😑

[@antonioreyes254]

This is the reason why Kenshi doesn't need to be nerfed. His Kombos are way to complicated to be perfomed by everybody.

[@dred814]

Preach

[@Reaper-J129]

This is going to be one of those characters that high level players complain about and low level players laugh at when fighting him, it's going to make balancing him a nightmare 🤣

[@Thunders.04]

Kombo IS easy for Kenshi..

[@Kali-bs7oj]

Kenshi is hard to play for sure. I main him and it’s tough to land combos when playing a person, but on the flip side, he can put on some crazy pressure

[@OctopusH2O]

@@Kali-bs7ojonly when sento is out, otherwise his best mid ist not fast enough up-close and he struggles to open people up for kombos

[@anthonyontv1061]

This combo guide has already leveled my already insane kenshi, I’m literally gonna hit elder god with ease now, the ex overhead into ,4, frost assist low into sento stance etc.is not only a great combo but it’s actually a mix up option. Instead of f22, frost assist low, into sento stance etc. you can do f22 ex over head,4 into frost assist, into sento stance etc. it’s a high low mixup if you pick between the two, absolutely god like, this alone has made me twice as good at kenshi mind BLOWN a lot of people eat his over heads and block low so they don’t have to deal with the 40% you lose from sento stance, now if they block low only they are going to eat that over head and take 30-35% free, start blocking high again, go frost assist low again and they have to eat the 40% can’t stress enough how much this helped, literally just gave me new mix up options that lead into insane damage! Thank you thank you thank you! Talking about 2:19 if anyone’s confused.

[@Ih8nolean]

This actually helped me start winning games 🙏🏻

[@younghandshake]

For the combos using Frost assist in to Sento 2 you don't need to hold the block button if you use the negative edge. As soon as you finish the input to summon Sento, press and hold forward and 2. This will let both Kenshi and Sento move forward, and you can release 2 for Sento to start his attack without making Kenshi attack as well.

[@Fragunov]

Tbh you can make sento attack before kenshi does, that's how I do it. No block, no NE, nothing. Just find the right frame where sento is already able to attack but kenshi isn't yet due to recovery

[@younghandshake]

@@Fragunov that's also true but I think the negative edge method is the most consistent, especially if you consider the fact that you're most likely going to be playing online and not everyone is using a wired connection

[@brightnoa21]

​@@younghandshakethis tbh. You want to minimize accidentally tossing out a random button when maneuvering your puppet I think NE relieves alot of that worry

[@user-rj7om9cv9k]

kenshi is hard to play but a couple hours in hard mode practicing you’ll be pressuring people the combos ain’t that complicated but that’s what makes fighting games fighting games it shows skill and practice because spamming won’t work if someone’s practiced there character and master it

[@angelbless45]

Thank you vey much! Just one question, was Kenshi (or Frost) damage scaling nerfed? I get less damage for the same combos :(

[@hairlinenotfound1730]

In the last patch everyone got a small damage nerf, some characters got hit harder, baraka and raiden I believe so it might be that

[@Gigan47]

They literally couldn't have made Kenshi harder to play. Ironically, his MK9 (2011) version was flawless from beginning to end.

[@st0832]

A question i have is, are you able to make kenshi and sento attack individually (For example only sento using 2 and only kenshi dashing to continue a combo)

[@cicada3312]

fast fingers thats all i can tell ya

[@OctopusH2O]

If you hold the kameo button sento doesn’t move, if you hold block button Kenshi doesn’t move, so you can use them individually or together

[@st0832]

@@OctopusH2O thanks

[@anthonyontv1061]

2:19 is way more consient if you use sentos(1) instead of (2). And you get more damage any way

That 141 Bf3 J122 is killin me lol Its so hard to hit XD Edit: I've nailed that shit.

[@ParisPK]

At 2:21, its 3 to Frost assist and then 3 to DB4. Damage with 3 gets you 355 while with 4, it gets you to 345 which isnt that bad but I recommend 3 better since its easier to do

[@anthonyontv1061]

Actually stick with 4, and instead of doing sentos (2) do sentos (1) you keep the damage and actually get more then if you did sentos (2) or switch (3) for (4) like you were talking about, and it’s way more consistent, try it out you will see!

[@anthonyontv1061]

But yes I was having trouble with the consistency as well, but trust me I lobbed it for over an hour the way I posted above works best for consistency AND optimal damage in mind.

[@zachtaylor5312]

Does anyone know how to counter the Kensho ghost that comes out and keeps attacking? Feels like such a cheap and bs move. It lasts so long. Maybe I’m missing something

[@OctopusH2O]

If you hit it he goes in rest mode

[@dred814]

You can hit either Ghost or Kenshi himself to temporary incapacitate him. Ghost himself is on a cooldown from the moment of action, and when it runs out, Kenshi has to spend a bar to bring him back. It is important to know that the Ghost cannot do any overhead attacks, unlike Kenshi. In my opinion, it is pretty fair, considering that kenshi entire baseline moveset changes, upon Sento stance activation. Without a ghost, Kenshi has only 1 special move that launches. If for whatever reason he wants to go back to his original stance, he has to make himself vulnerable to sheath the sword

[@hanzonoskillmercymainbtw8584]

All of the ghost’s attacks hit mid or high, so if you’re forced on the defensive, focus on Kenshi’s attacks.

Thought it would be cool to learn Kenshi, then I got to the Sento stance section of this video and quickly realized I don't think I can do it lol. At least not reliably. Back to Mileena where I can very easily do a 57% combo using 2 meter and 2 scorpion assists.

[@JinisBored]

It may take some time you could do it tho lol

[@I_Might_Be_Simon]

literally saying you can't is so sad... of course you can, it's obvious it's hard, that doesn't mean you won't be able to do it

dont say you cant bro. im labbing rn and its hard for the sento part but its possible, game just dropped give yourself some time

[@makinrex]

The hardest choices require the strongest wills

[@brightnoa21]

You'd be surprised what you can learn by just keeping at it. You already know enough to play, this is just light practice everyday. Break the combos into little parts where you focus on the bits you know you need to work on. You'll be nailing these like light cheese.
