After nearly 30 years of being denied entry into the KoF franchise due to canonical issues, Haohmaru finally makes his playable debut in The King of Fighters XV. Similar to the game in which he originates, Haohmaru specializes in chipping away at the opponent's health with his long-range normals, while also being able to take away massive chunks with his exceptionally high burst damage.
After nearly 30 years of being denied entry into the KoF franchise due to canonical issues, Haohmaru finally makes his playable debut in The King of Fighters XV. Haohmaru specializes in keeping opponents at a distance with his long range pokes, and capitalizing off of openings with his very high burst damage.
Being a swordfighter, Haohmaru is a bit on the slow side, but when he hits, he hits very hard. Haohmaru is one of the only characters in the game capable of doing 500 damage or more with just a single bar of meter from anywhere on the screen, ''without counterhits''. He even has his far standing heavy slash (named Iron Flash in this game) as a command normal that does 200 damage, making it one of the most damaging pokes in the game.
In essence, Haohmaru is basically a shoto with a sword. He's got a variety of tools for almost any scenario, such as anti-zoning tools in Rice Wine Whack (214K[K]); decent space control and zoning in his 5A and 5C, alongside a projectile that always knocks down (236P[P]); and a very strong anti-air game in his 2C and Crescent Moon Slash (623P[P]), a DP with very high damage. He also has decent pressure with cl.A, Cyclone Wave (236K[K]), 214C, and 4214C, which are plus on block. But his greatest attribute, undoubtedly, is his damage. EX Cyclone Wave is a 20-frame launcher that juggles opponents high, allowing him to connect his Iron Flash command normal (A+C), which does a whopping 200 damage on hit, or he can link one of his specials, such as 214A or 623C, into a super. This makes Haohmaru's metered damage potential very high, and getting hit by him even once can be a legitimate threat.
Haohmaru is also good at playing defense. His st.A, j.D, j.CD, and heavy punch attacks are all sword based and have a long reach, allowing Haohmaru to poke the opponent from afar. Like in his home series, Haohmaru has an enhanced version of his DP if he performs it while running, which not only starts up faster and moves him further, but is ''the most damaging DP in the game'', doing '''even more''' damage than Omega Rugal's legendary Genocide Cutter.
Unfortunately, Haohmaru's massive damage comes with a few drawbacks. First of all, he's slow. ''Very'' slow. Almost all of Haohmaru's specials have over 14 frames of startup, which makes his light confirms almost nonexistent. To make matters worse, he has pretty much no way to confirm his lights into any meaningful damage outside of his cl.A, which forces him to fight in close-range, a position where he absolutely struggles. Haohmaru is basically outclassed by almost all of the cast, who are better at poking and doing consistent damage than he is. In high-level play, there's almost no reason to play him unless you're just looking to have fun. If all you want is to play a swordfighter and feel like you're playing ''Samurai Shodown'' in KoF, then Haohmaru may be for you.
However, Haohmaru comes from a game where the rules aren't the same, and his tools have been modified to compensate. Most notably, his sword attacks have massive hurtboxes, and Haohmaru players can easily be counterpoked if they're not careful. That isn't to say Haohmaru is already really slow compared to the rest of the cast. Many of Haohmaru's specials start up too slowly to combo from light normals, and many of Haohmaru's best buttons aren't as fast compared to others in KoF XV's cast, so he'll more often be playing defensively than offensively.
If you like samurai characters or want to be able to turtle and then obliterate your opponent after finally getting a good opening, then Haohmaru might be your character.

A quick kick to the shins, based on his 6D from the original game. Doesn't hit low, but it has special-cancel properties. Unfortunately for Haohmaru, he doesn't have any very good cancel options from this because a majority of his specials are too slow (although canceling into 214A can mess up opponents). If the opponent is close enough, you should probably be trying to use cl.A because it has the frame advantage to link into cl.C. At farther ranges, it's probably the best thing you can throw out in neutral because of its cancelability, but keep in mind it's a tad slower than most other st.Bs.
A kick to the shins that's a tad slower than most 5Bs, but has special-cancel properties. Because of the slow startup of most of Haohmaru's special moves, his options after 5B are quite limited. 214K and 623P are decent confirm options, but their block disadvantage makes them risky if blocked. 236B is a decent blockstring/frame trap option thanks to its safety, but its 20-frame startup makes it impossible to confirm.

The universal overhead from the ''Samurai Shodown'' series gets implemented into Haohmaru's movelist as his only cancellable command normal. In ''The King of Fighters XV'', this move serves both its original use and as an extender for Haohmaru's heavy starter combos. Because of the pushback on Haohmaru's close heavies, this move can have a hard time connecting from farther ranges.

A slow but very powerful command normal with a slight disjoint that functions as a highly rewarding combo ender off of juggles.
A very unique normal for the KoF series, Haohmaru's AC lacks any cancel properties and has very slow startup, but makes up for it with absurdly high damage, doing the same as the average 1-bar super. On counter-hit, it causes a soft knockdown, and on a regular hit, it causes a unique stagger effect that leaves Haohmaru safe on hit to compensate for the otherwise high block disadvantage.
Unfortunately, the properties of AC make it completely useless as a neutral poke, as the risk significantly outweighs the reward. It should only be used in combos where the opponent is juggled high, such as after 236BD.

Pros
Cons
Massive Damage: Haohmaru is easily capable of depleting around half of the opponent's life meter if he lands one of his cancellable normals, even with just half a bar. His Iron Flash (AC), while not cancellable by any means, can still be used as an ender after 236BD and does great damage.
Versatility: Haohmaru has a variety of specials at his disposal—a fireball that he can fake out of during startup, a leaping overhead, an elbow tackle, a multi-hit attack with lots of blockstun, and more. Given his options, Haohmaru can suit multiple playstyles.
Big Pokes: Being a swordfighter, many of Haohmaru's normals have a lot of range. His st.C is a great tool for contesting space, his cr.C is a massive anti-air, and his j.D is a godly air-to-air. Even his st.A has a good amount of range for what it is.
Poor Reward from Lights: Haohmaru's specials (excluding his DP and Rice Wine Whack), even in EX form, start up too slowly for them to connect from light normals. Haohmaru's only cancellable command normal, Surprise Attack (6A) also starts up too slowly for it to be used as a converter from lights, so Haohmaru has to rely on landing heavy normals in order to score big damage. Haohmaru's best light confirm is chaining cl.C from cl.A, but the range for this can be tight.
Big Hurtboxes: Opponents can easily counterpoke him way before his active frames comes out with just the press of a button. Iron Flash is the only exception to this problem but it's heavily telegraphed and punishable on block and pretty much a death sentence on whiff.
Slow: Also as expected of a swordfighter, Haohmaru is on the slower end of the roster. For example, his cr.C is one of the slowest in the game at 12 frames of startup. Cyclone Slash, his only projectile, doesn't even combo from heavies. As mentioned above, most of his specials, excluding his DP and Rice Wine Whack, have very slow startup, so they can be rather hard to combo into, and it's likely that a Haohmaru player will get counterpoked if they try to use one of his specials in neutral.

Completely uncancelable—cannot be canceled into or cancel into anything.
Causes a soft knockdown on counterhit (+22: Tech / +62: Non-tech)
A very unique normal for the KoF series, Haohmaru's AC lacks any cancel properties and has very slow startup, but makes up for it with absurdly high damage, doing the same as the average 1-bar super. On counter-hit, it causes a soft knockdown, and on a regular hit, it causes a unique stagger effect that leaves Haohmaru safe on hit to compensate for the otherwise high block disadvantage.
Unfortunately, the properties of AC make it completely useless as a neutral poke, as the risk significantly outweighs the reward. It should only be used in combos where the opponent is juggled high, such as after 236BD.

Haohmaru's most damaging and reliable combo ender against grounded opponents, as well as a strong reversal thanks to its high damage and long range. All versions are prone to losing out on max damage if spaced improperly.
623A: No forward movement. Great at catching opponents jumping in.
623C: Has a noticeable amount of forward movement and goes very high. Has slower than average startup, so 623C can sometimes entirely miss jumping opponents depending on how high up they are.
623AC: Very high damage. Has the startup of 623A and the movement, damage, and recovery of 623C.

Can only be performed from frame 12 until frame 16 of a dash.
If 623P is inputted from frame 12-16 of a dash, it becomes Renting Tremor Slash, an immensely damaging DP (even more so than Omega Rugal's Genocide Cutter) with even more forward movement, faster startup, higher damage... and much more recovery. Essentially a higher risk, higher reward version of Kogetsuzan.
Shippu Kogetsuzan cannot be used as a combo ender unless the opponent is juggled very high, in which case it is useless unless you're trying to super cancel.

A version travels halfway across the screen and can be faked out of, C version travels fullscreen.
EX version puts the opponent into a juggle state. 10% scaling is added after the first hit.
Haohmaru uses his katana to send out a small tornado that travels across the ground. Opponents that are hit by this tornado will be launched upwards, giving Haohmaru plenty of time to approach and prepare for his next move.
The EX version puts the opponent into a juggle state, meaning anything Haohmaru hits the opponent with afterwards will land instead of whiffing like with the A or C version. One of his best options afterwards is his AC command normal.

Cannot connect up close unless the opponent is in a juggle state.
Heavy version is plus on block.
EX version hits three times and causes a groundbounce, and it's best used after 236D/BD. It also hits OTG (damage in parenthesis) after 214AC,236AC,236236A/C/AC/B/D, add damage from 66 to 17 (usually 42 after 2 bar BnB).
Haohmaru somersaults forward before striking the ground with his katana. This has the most startup out of all of Haohmaru's moves and therefore the most telegraphed, so this is not a good move to use in neutral.

B version nullifies projectiles, D version reflects projectiles.

Ridiculously unsafe on block. Don't use this as a blockstring ender.
One of Haohmaru's faster special moves that has some use as a combo ender from 2A or 5B, or to start combos with said buttons (214BD). It can also be used to nullify or reflect projectiles. Other than that, this move is practically useless. It is very unsafe and does low damage, which limits its use. Haohmaru will almost always have a better option than this move.

Based on his Weapon Flipping Technique from his home game.
Haohmaru's version of Samurai Shodown's universal Weapon Flipping Technique is his most damaging Super Special move in KoF XV. The C version is significantly slower than the A version and can drop in specific combos, so you'll probably just want to use the A version.
