I Left out Kenshi on purpose cause the more I learned about Sento the more I was confused lol also left out Quan cause obviously

[@codeegirl]

Fair enough!

[@WalkBesideMe]

I hope Shujinko uses Peacemaker's Desert Eagle, we need him with a gun.

[@valhalla8140]

I never knew I wanted this, thanks😊

Step 1: Pray theu don't play Reiko or Lao

[@necromancer0616]

@shujinkydink , Good video bro. I would add in what each Steal dose on hit because some of them you either didn't show on Hit or at all. Other than that, it's the only Shujinko guide out there at the moment.

[@angelocunha9077]

Best Shujinko guide. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@unr34L-]

Thanks for this guide, love using Shujinko & love learning from the best!

23:01 Li Mei’s flip kick is good as wake-up move! Comes out super fast and I believe it’s also a invincible wake-up

[@frogaroach]

26:26 you can actually change the speed of the reptile ball by inputting directions which can help in neutral, and just like reptile you can juggle multiple times with the ball if you use different speeds. It's rare to land because you need very long combos to fully recharge shujinko to get a second juggle but with certain chars like Geras or Scorpion you can get 2 juggling hits. I dont play sindel but my guess would be that she can do this as well. 28:40 I think the kung lao spin is also armored vs normal attacks. You forgot about quan chi steals! The bone cage combos and is like +10 on block, and the projectile is buffed if quan chi is standing in his own purple portal. Also bone cage is likely bugged as you can combo extend 2x with it if you have a restand and longish combo.

[@shujinkydink]

Funny I used him most of the video and forgot him 😂 whoops

[@Goofiestgoober8550]

Was just thinking about how I wanna try Shujinko when Peacemaker comes out… great timing and great guide

[@harveysidhu7030]

When it comes to Liu Kang's dragon launcher steal if you're quick you can actually do Sindel's f4 or just do her f1 into scream. With Kitana I was able to her b24 or her 11 into fan lift, and Ashrah can do her f2 as well. That being said I only ever use Shujinko with these characters so it might be easier for others to combo into with moves like the dragon steal. Also with the dragon launcher I didn't use apep punch or konquest kick but just did a string into that move so maybe it might be easier to combo into that way. Overall, another amazing Shujinko video! Also I don't think Kenshi is a good steal for some characters either because unless you're playing a character that can setup the ghost safely it is incredibly easy for the opponent to hit Shujinko and he's gone immedietly whereas Kenshi's ghost will just be incapacitated but still on screen. Or maybe I'm just bad at the game either way I also don't shujinko against Kenshi but that's just me.

[@angelsilva7207]

I’ve been playing Liu/Shujinko since day one. I get the lore between and great damaging combos

[@frogaroach]

16:03 You can actually use the Shujinko Kick off b2 into any matchup to catch people because it hits mid

[@QU141.]

3:51 If only sub had that scaling on the ice ball

[@WalkBesideMe]

Step one: realize the run version of calling out Shujinko is the easy part of using Shujinko.

[@coldsixthousand1]

I would love if they actually added grab brutalities for Shujinko, he's the only kameo with no brutalities, but it seems NRS would never put in that mind of work.

[@secondexodus9105]

Any chance you could show any big brain 🧠 stuff with Shujinko and Shang tsung transformed into the opponent and Shujinko with Sindel also controlling the opponent’s kameo. I feel like there is possibility some creatively undiscovered niche potential there.

[@mrstudent9125]

I noticed that Shujinko nut punch is slower, so it's harder to land after a juggle compared to JC himself.

[@unr34L-]

MGE me in granary mid, no gunboats :^)

​@@unr34L-what are you talking about?

[@koalabearkhan145]

Maybe for quan shujinko vs geras you can do s4 portal into s3 air combo. Maybe try that for a time freeze combo

[@koalabearkhan145]

Shujinko stealing reptile force ball, can change speed by holding forward or back

[@frogaroach]

The biggest troll from NRS was giving people these crazy shujinko combos against geras but he still just rewinds out 💀 Ive had people quitality out of their own combos from rewinding vs shujinko

[@DorkLord69]

They should make all the moves he steals useful. Don't know why they want a kameo to have bad matchups. Also the shang soul steal takes way too long to set up

[@mrstudent9125]

Shang's boost in 1 bar (if you use fdb4), so Shujinko steal isn't that good

[@shujinkydink]

He steals ex which is 2 bars

[@Zander-9]

@@shujinkydinkactually if you meter burn fdb4 it’s one bar for the 20% boost. The 2 meter move is db3 injection meter burn. BUT BUT, Shang v Shang (for some reason) gives you the damage boost when you morph even without burning meter on fdb4. It seems like a bug. All in all, shujinko’s morph damage boost doesn’t seem very useful in this specific situation. Unless the boost is more than 20% maybe? Or lasts greater than 18 seconds? Haven’t tested that

[@sobhanamini3776]

Honestly the only mu that shujinko is good is kenshi and quan chi and thats it

[@IC2I]

Geras aswell
