Overview • Strategy • Data • Combos

Introduction

A solid character with some of the best midrange neutral in the business.

Strengths	Weaknesses
Super does immense damage and is easy to combo into: can TOD off a jump-in without stun in MAX Mode or with low health Has good long-ranged hitconfirms and stun routing off lights Great buttons and specials for controlling the ground midrange in neutral High jump arc and divekick give him tricky approach options	Weak anti-airs: has to rely on defensive attack and jank airthrow collision Difficult to reliably confirm stuns without a crossup

Good for scoring big damage off a charge-cancelled 2B or a jump-in. 2BBB > cl.C > Raijinken is Benimaru's highest meterless damage, though its stun potential relative to 2B*n > Iai Geri is unknown in addition to it being much more difficult. j.D/2BBB > cl.C > Raikouken has a real chance of being a TOD on its own. Not much use outside being combo filler.

Does a ridiculously variable amount of damage, but most of those values are higher than every other super. Also combos out of cl.C. What these two pieces of information together mean is that stuff > cl.C > Raikouken does ungodly amounts of damage. Excellent combo ender if you're at low health or have meter to burn.
