A former final boss of The King of Fighters '96, Goenitz is a character known for his frustratingly oppressive zoning, backed up by an additional set of tools to surprise opponents who clam up. However - in '''XV''' - Goenitz zoning is a far cry from what it used to be. Rather, his offense and damage are where he truly shines.
Goenitz's gameplan is simple: control the space with tornadoes, then use his DPs to stop opponents from getting too close; these tools, when paired together, allow Goenitz to gradually wear down his opponents from afar. Backing up this zoning is a slew of large normals that give him some additional punch in mid-range, better allowing him to cover up his crippling close-range weakness. As long as he's able to play the keepaway game and not let the opponent get in on him, it's not unheard of Goenitz to win rounds just off of his tornadoes and DPs alone.
Goenitz's gameplan is simple: control the space with tornadoes and air normals, and use his speed and EX Yonokaze to call out an opponent's rolls or approaches; these tools, when paired together, allow Goenitz to bait opponents into making mistakes, or simply back themselves into the corner. Though, things are complicated when looking at his middling set of ground normals, which can make Goenitz a tad difficult to pick up and play.
Then, if he's caught with no meter in the midrange, Goenitz has to play an uphill battle of constant pre-emptive reads to build up enough meter to become a threat once more.
When the opponent gets pinned down by his zoning and begins to clam up, waiting for their opportunity to move in, that's when the rest of Goenitz's kit shines. His teleport, overhead, rekkas, high-damaging supers, and his new Shin Tsumakushi special give Goenitz surprisingly potent rushdown, complete with meaty setups, frame traps, tick throws, and more that the opponent has to account for. Any opponent defending against Goenitz must always be on the lookout for these tricks, on top of the constant threat of tornadoes.
'''''However''''', when Goenitz scores a knockdown, nearly ANY knockdown, he can finally do his work. His teleport, overhead, rekkas, high-damaging supers, and on-block framedata give Goenitz surprisingly potent rushdown, complete with meaty setups, frame traps, tick throws, an actually good pressure reset, and even more that the opponent has to account for. Any opponent defending against Goenitz must always be on the lookout for these tricks, on top of the constant threat of EX Yonokaze.
Goenitz is, overall, a high-risk, high-return zoner with little margin for error, both for himself and for his opponent. It can make for especially tense fights, but the thrill of these situations, combined with his signature zoning, make Goenitz an all-around fun and challenging character to play.

| pros=
| pros=
* '''The King of Zoners''': Goenitz's defining features are his two oppressive zoning tools, his Yonokaze tornadoes, and his Wanhyo specials. These strong, low-commitment tools, combined with large normals, give Goenitz an incredible kit of zoning tools that can prove quite difficult for much of the cast to overcome. Better yet, nearly all of his knockdowns push the opponent back to optimal zoning range.
* '''Synergistic Specials''': Goenitz has a lot of ways to force his opponent to either make a risky approach, or to capitalize on their defensive play. While Yonokaze is nowhere near as strong as it used to be, it's now coupled with a [[The_King_of_Fighters_XV/Goenitz#Hyouga|command dash]] with movement mixups, and a very active [[The_King_of_Fighters_XV/Goenitz#Wanhyo:_Tokobuse/Mametsu|poke]], so Goenitz must rely on his specials with as much thought as his normals to get his opponents in the situations he wants them.
* '''Big Damage''': Goenitz's supers deal quite high damage, with Yami Doukoku in particular dealing with a whopping 230 damage. Landing this grab with three or more bars to spend can quickly finish off an opponent who survived his zoning. Complimenting this, Goenitz's optimal combos do incredible damage, able to shave off 50% off an opponent's lifebar with a single bar of meter.
* '''Strong Air Buttons''': Goenitz air buttons are all around great. With a jCD that has a great hitbox for offense and walling-out alike, and multiple air normals for every situation, including crossups. These air normals are the ones Goenitz uses for most of his time in neutral, as they lead to better advantage and are more consistent than his ground normals.
* '''Meter Flexibility''': On top of having supers that do huge damage, Goenitz has multiple EX moves with various useful functions, including an anywhere juggle, an OTG, and more. He can also use his close D in juggles, giving him additional methods of cashing out his meter for big damage.
* '''Combo Utility''': Largely due to the opportunities his cl.D juggle grants him, Goenitz's optimal combos do incredible damage, able to shave off 50% off an opponent's lifebar with a single bar of meter. Additionally, [[The_King_of_Fighters_XV/Goenitz#Shin_Ya_Otome:_Yomotsu|Shin Ya Otome: Yamotsu]] has 2 versions to convert from crazy ranges and heights, making his damage with meter consistent as well.
* '''Surprise Rushdown''': Opponents playing patiently against Goenitz have to be on the lookout not only for tornadoes, but also sudden aggression. Goenitz has a scary secondary set of rushdown tools that players have to watch out for, which includes teleports, tick throws, meaty setups, frame traps, and even high-low mix.
* '''Meter Flexibility''': On top of having supers with great utility, Goenitz has multiple EX moves with various useful functions, including an anywhere juggle, an OTG, and a high damage, plus on block, highly active psuedo-projectile that covers immense space. Finally, his corner juggles are incredibly meter efficient, almost always building back 25-50% of a bar.
* '''Knowledge Checker''': Goenitz is an incredibly gimmicky character with specific answers to most situations he puts his opponents in, giving him strong knowledge checks. If an opponent doesn't know how to work their way past the onslaught of tornadoes and into close range, Goenitz can easily continue zoning the opponent until he either kills them or times them out.
* '''Suffocating Pressure''': With his teleport and his run speed, Goenitz can follow up most any solid hit in neutral with his strong offense. To start, Goenitz's frametraps are amazingly safe, with the pushback on his command normal putting him at optimal ranges for CD and Yonokaze counterpokes, and his EX Yonokaze frametraps leaving him ''PLUS''. He also can safely frametrap from heavy normals - a rare sight in XV - leading to reward ranging from good to '''extreme'''. Finally, when Goenitz gets an enemy in the corner, he has a great collection of tools to send them back to the Earth. Not only is everything previously mentioned strong on its own, but Hyouga gives him a fantastic pressure reset, as the D version will sneak past abare (as well as allow him to land a jump in), and the feint version can surprise people looking out for the D version. All of this not only makes it hard to both defend and get out of the corner against him, but it also makes him shockingly difficult to reversal for most of the cast.
| cons=
| cons=
* '''Demanding Defense''': If Goenitz lets an opponent get in on him, he has no tools to get them off him without meter, and the tools he does have are very specific. All of his reversals are meter-dependent, and he leans more heavily on guard cancels and Shatterstrikes than most. While EX Wanhyo: Tokobuse is a great anti-air, and Yami Doukoku is a threatening reversal grab, neither is a true reversal against every possible offensive approach, requiring you to react correctly with the exact reversal for the exact situation.
* '''Horrendous Defense''': If Goenitz lets an opponent get in on him, he has no consistent tools to get them off without meter. First off, he has to spend at LEAST 2 bars for a reversal, and his abare is among the worst in the game due to its lack of range, coverage, and its extreme whiff recovery. While EX Wanhyo: Tokobuse is great for high jumps, it's extremely limited for hops. In fact, among all of his normals and specials, Goenitz has horrible answers to offensive hops. All of this is compounded by his shoddy backdash, meaning Goenitz doesn't have much to consistently defend with other than guard cancels. This not only makes being in the corner as Goenitz a nightmare, but also creates a dichotomy where even though he can easily start an offensive game from mostly any knockdown, he will also have an incredibly difficult time the moment he gets knocked down even at midscreen.
* '''Zoning Blindspots''': There are two places where Goenitz's tornadoes can't reach: up close, and full screen. This means that when an opponent finds their way into these blindspots, they can often force Goenitz's hand and make him do something risky to get them back where he wants them. By extension, this also hinders his comeback potential.
* '''Blindspots''': Goenitz lacks quick presence at complete fullscreen and up close. While EX Yonokaze does a lot of heavy lifting when enemies are near him, it is not good enough to duke with it as your only option - and it requires meter. This means Goenitz will eventually have to make highly risky predictions against fast characters and offensive play, and often times will have to give up space to avoid being put into bad ranges.
* '''Lackluster Ground Normals''': Goenitz's normals on the ground are not truly terrible(for the most part), but are all either very specific in their application or have noticeable shortcomings. Playing Goenitz well requires quick decisionmaking on what normals to use and when.
* '''Lackluster Ground Normals''': Goenitz's normals on the ground are not truly terrible(for the most part), but are all either very specific in their application, have limited conversions, or have other noticeable shortcomings. Playing Goenitz well requires quick decisionmaking on what normals to use and when. Additionally, his standing normals all have extreme whiff recovery, making his normals riskier than the average character.
* '''Big Body''': Though not necessarily an exclusive downside, Goenitz's large frame means he gets hit more frequently and in more situations than his fellow zoners. This bodes well for opponents defending their lead with pokes and their own zoning.
* '''Big Body''': Though not necessarily an exclusive downside, Goenitz's large frame means he can get hit easier than other characters. This specifically affects Goenitz quite badly due to his lack of answers for air approach, and his shoddy backdash is further weakened by his frame.
}}
* '''''Awful Reaction Anti Airs''''': Goenitz has near absolute nothing for a good reaction anti air, sporting one of the worst 2Cs in the game, he has to rely on specials to anti air. Sadly, his quickest anti air here is an 8f EX move. While this can be used on high jump ins to great effect, it is very difficult to use it on hops without buffering. The result? Goenitz must play very pre-emptively to stop hops - which wouldn't be ''too'' bad if his fast hop checks were any good. And without meter? Goenitz gets practically no pressure or offensive lead at all for most of his hop checks. }}
* Great vertical hitbox. Its hit directly above Goenitz, preventing cross-ups as well as jump-ins.

The only anti-air Goenitz has that doesn't require meter. It's a bit difficult to use due to its awful horizontal reach, however, which leaves it vulnerable to divekicks and other air specials (such as Najd j.214P).

At six frame startup, this is a great move to react to and beat aggressive jumps. It can always combo into 623AC, making it more rewarding for mid or anchor Goenitz.

As one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Orochi, the almighty Goenitz devotes his entire being to serving his dark lord. His dignified wardrobe (that of a pastor) and polite mannerisms give off a gentle air, but mask another side of him—that of a ruthless monster quite happy to inflict pain and suffering on those who dare stand in his way.

Goenitz's fastest normal.
Leaves Goenitz close enough to frame trap into close C.
A great button to press when things get up close and personal. Important for Goenitz's defense, both as an abare and a hop check in conjunction with far A.

Goenitz's most advantageous normal on hit and block.
Links to close C on hit.
While close A is great for defense, close B is for pushing your offense. It's very plus on hit and block, links into close C on hit, and frame traps into it on block. A very important normal for Goenitz's rushdown.

Goenitz does a weird cartwheel kick thing.
Shorter activation range than close C.
Hits twice. First hit has juggle properties, making it very useful for corner extensions.
Only the first hit cancels to specials.
A truly bizarre normal that is unusual in its usage as it is in its animation.
Where it will be used most often is in the corner to extend combos after 214AC. However, it can situationally catch opponents jumping at or over Goenitz, making it occasionally useful against greedy cross-up attempts or desperation jumps from opponents trying to escape the corner. You have to predict the opponent doing so in the latter, but its juggle properties greatly amplify the reward for landing it.

Has the same range as far A, but comes out faster and has better cancel options.
Frame traps into 6A on block.
Easily goes into 214A and 214AC on hit. These are Goenitz's only meterless combos from lights.
It's a pretty standard 2A, as they go. Mashable and chains into his other lights, including his far B.
It's also as far-reaching as his far A while coming out faster and *also* being cancellable. This makes it one of Goenitz's most important normals for general offense.

Mediocre vertical range, does not actually reach as far as his hand, but decent active frames.
Abysmal horizontal range, to the point of never being worth going for on a grounded opponent.
Combos to 623AC on hit, regardless of if it hits grounded or airborne.
The only anti-air Goenitz has that doesn't require meter. Difficult to use and unreliable due to short range, however, which leaves it vulnerable to divekicks and other air specials (such as Najd j.214P).
At six frame startup, it's decent for reactive AAing, but timing is required or it may whiff. It can always combo into 623AC, making it more rewarding for mid or anchor Goenitz.

Reaches somewhat far and can combo at close range into his anywhere juggling 623AC.
On hit, Goenitz can meaty the opponent's wakeup with 426B (midscreen only).
For a sweep, Goenitz's 2D is really good, doing everything you could want it to with added range to boot.
Since Goenitz has little in the way of defense, you'll want to abuse this to prevent approaches and pressure prematurely.
Since it whiff cancels, there are some cheeky buffers you can do against opponents aggressively approaching you, with sweep covering the ground, and your specials covering the air.

Very slow and not as disjointed as its animation suggests, but its forward movement amplifies its range.
Whiff cancelling this move into 426D is the only way Goenitz can hit an opponent at full screen with a tornado.
A bad blowback. It's very slow, massively unsafe on block if not cancelled (a rarity among blowbacks), and it's not very disjointed, with the range being shorter than the animation.
However, it has its uses. You can pressure an opponent into approaching by whiff cancelling this move, as its forward movement allows Goenitz to place a tornado at full screen.
On hit, Goenitz has a few different combos, but the most notable one is cancelling into 214D, then hitting delayed j.D for a stylish re-stand that can go into a full combo after.

Reuses the same animation and, with it, its surprisingly decent range.
Consistently goes into 623K on grounded or airborne hit.
Since Goenitz's defensive tools are so underwhelming, you may have to rely on this every now and then. However, on hit, Shatter Strike lets Goenitz follow up with close D if he's point blank, or 426AC from further away. The combos from both routes lead to substantially higher damage than supers that cost the same amount of meter, making the reward worth the risk more often than not.

Has decent reach and the ability to hit below Goenitz
The vertical and horizontal ranges make it a great tool for retreating when combined with backward hops. However, it's a little slower than some of his other air-to-air options.
Goenitz has time for this move after his teleports that leave him airborne (214D and 214BD).
To contrast Goenitz's bad standing CD, he has an excellent jumping CD. This is one of Goenitz's best buttons in neutral as it gives Goenitz a big knockdown button to press while he establishes more space between him and his opponent.
In the corner, or if you hit it close enough, it's possible to combo a 623AC afterward, regardless of whether it counter hits.

Overhead when used raw, but slightly slower than average for a move of its type in KOFXV.
Relatively low pushback on the hit itself, but Goenitz pushes the opponent during startup and reels back after the strike, leaving a large distance between him and the opponent unless the move is cancelled.
Cancelled version is extremely safe on block, due to the relatively low negative frames and pushing the opponent far away. Not cancelling this into anything is one of your best bets in a blockstring.

Spawns a vertical tornado in one of four locations, based on the button used.
Closest tornado is A, farthest is D.
EX versions can hit OTG, damage is indicated in [square brackets].
Tornadoes stop projectiles without dissipating.
Does not reach directly next to Goenitz, or at full screen.
Goenitz's infamous signature move, burned into the minds of everyone that played KOF 96. Not quite as busted here, but stronger than you'd think. Quickly spawns a stationary tornado at one of four locations relative to Goenitz, with the EX versions spawning in between each of the four locations. This move can be oppressively difficult to get around if used properly. Each tornado acts as a wall that can be spawned to shut down almost any approach. There are a few catches, however; the blind spots mentioned above, and the fact that, if the opponent gets past the tornado, Goenitz is wide open. It also doesn't build very much meter, and can't combo into anything. This is, as its core, a harassment tool. However, with proper positioning and skill at placing the right tornado at the right time, Goenitz can become nigh-impossible to approach.
The EX version, while effective enough as a zoning tool, truly shines in combos. It's one of his go-to combo extenders, and can add a little extra damage after a knockdown.

All versions, except EX, can be stopped during the 3rd hit by pressing AB. EX version cannot be stopped.
C version cannot hit ground hitboxes. However, it is able to hit a character hit by a raw Shatter Strike, a CD wallsplat or during a backdash.
If the C version is stopped, the character is left in a free juggle state, unlike the A version.
EX version is an anywhere juggle. A 30% scaling penalty is applied if it connects in this manner.
EX version is also invulnerable to airborne opponents' strikes, making it an excellent option against airborne attackers.
The move deals a fixed amount of damage as long as any of the first 5 hits of the EX version connects.
