==Introduction==
Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuden (サムライスピリッツ 天下一剣客伝)


[[Image:SS6.3.jpg]]
Samurai Shodown VI brings together every playable character from the Neo Geo MVS entries, with legacy characters who were missing from V Special making their return, and six subsystems to choose from inspired by each numbered entry, including a new system for VI itself. Additionally, four new characters have been introduced and there is one secret character, resulting in a total of 41 characters in the arcade version. The console ports feature seven additional characters, four EX versions and three extra subsystems.


=Introduction=
The arcade game is playable online via [http://flycast.dojo.ooo/ Flycast Dojo]'s Atomiswave emulation, using [https://www.fightcade.com/ Fightcade 2] for matchmaking. For console versions, there's [https://dolphin-emu.org/ Dolphin] and [https://pcsx2.net PCSX2].


Also known as "Samurai Spirits: Tenkaichi Kenkakuden" (サムライスピリッツ 天下一剣客伝).
==Characters==
Characters in ''italics'' are only available on console.


'''Note''': This is based on the Samurai Showdown Tenka in the Samurai Shodown Anthology/Samurai Spirits Rokuban Shoubu.

{|
In liaison with it's predecessors this game brings forth new 2D/3D backgrounds, new characters  (including the orginal 28 characters from previous title's such as Samurai Shodown 5 Special, boss characters, other not so well known characters from Samurai Shodown I/II, and 4 all new characters never before seen in the series. It also features an all new "Spirit" system mimicking the gauge system from Capcom vs SNK 2 allowing players access to fighting/gauge systems from previous SS titles adding a whole new level of depth never before seen in the Samurai Showdown Universe.

=Spirit System=
 
The "Spirit System" comprises of 6 different sub-systems, these sub-systems give you a variety of options ranging from more Offensive/Defensive/Charging Meter, or a higher level of attack beyond Heavy Slash. This section will explain (in detail) what each sub-system does and why you should or shouldn't use it.
 
 
==Rage Spirits (I)==
 
[[Image:Samurai_Shodown.jpg]]
 
[[Image:SS Rage Spirits.png]]
 
 
'''Basic Commands'''
 
*Hop Backward - press b, b
*Jump - press ub/u/uf
*Crouch - press db/d/df
*Down Attack - df+S
*Parry - qcf+SP
*Empty Parry - qcf+SP (no weapon)
 
'''New'''
*Rage Gauge
*Run - Press f, (hold) f
*Hyper Slash - press SP
 
 
The "Rage Spirit" is the sub-system from Samurai Shodown I. It's very simple in terms of fighting and covers all the basic fundamentals of SS very well, highly recommended for people who just want to "pick-up and play". In terms of fighting this gauge allows access to both the "Rage Gauge" and "Hyper Slash", and unlike other gauges instead of the usual "hop forward" function it's replaced with run. Take note that you cannot triangle jump or triangle jump (descend) either unless you picked a character who already had that ability since SS I (e.g. Hanzo/Galford).

| '''Hyper Slash'''<br> || Hyper Slash is a very powerful extra attack that can be used upon selecting this gauge for a match. Although the attack appears to look the same as the characters "strong slash" there are a couple important differences. This attack has a guard shield of "1" meaning the character will bypass whatever incoming attack whether it be L/M/S slash or special attack (your character will take damage) then perform the strong slash. If you are hit again before the attack is done it will cancel the guard shield then the character will revert to hit-stun.
 
If you ever happen to hit the opponent with the Hyper Slash they will be automatically be knocked down. This attack also receives a buff upon reaching full Rage Gauge, when the gauge is filled your Hyper Slash will do an 30% damage to the opponent. You can use this move as much as you want during a fight but keep in mind that you will take damage if you are hit while using it, and despite that those hits may fill your Rage Gauge you will also be one step closer to a KO so stay alert.
|-
| '''Rage Gauge'''<br> ||
The Rage Gauge is the meter you have at your disposal, this meter fills up over time as you succumb to take damage through-out the match. The more powerful the attack, and the more hits you take (e.g. a special attack that does 5 hits), the faster gauge fills up. When the gauge is full it will start to glow red then begin to deplete over a short period. During that time your "Hyper Slash" will do 30% more damage than usual.

'''Basic Commands'''
 
*Run - press f, (hold) f
*Hop Backward - press b, b
*Jump - press ub/u/uf
*Crouch - press db/d/df
*Down Attack - df+S
*Parry - qcf+SP

*Evade (forward) - Press df+SP
*Evade (backward) - Press db+SP
*Evade (crouch) - Press d+SP
*Evade (Hop) - Press N/b+SP
*Fabric Doll - Input the designated command then press SP
*Secret Move - Can be used only once per round
*Destroy Weapon Attack - When gauge is full press qcf+L+M/AB
 
 
The "True/Truth Spirits" is the sub-system from Samurai Shodown II. It consists of all the basic functions of the regular SS I gauge except with a few new techniques added to encourage variety in game-play. It terms of fighting this gauge gives you access to both the "Rage Gauge", and an "Evade" system where your character can quickly dodge low or high hitting attacks. When your gauge is full you will be able to use your characters "Secret Move" and "Destroy Weapon Attack", the secret move can only be used once per round while the destroy weapon attack is a very strong special attack that destroys your opponents weapon. The run function is still there and there's also a move where you character can turn into a doll for about 2 seconds, it doesn't really do anything and it's mostly just for show.

|-
! width=10% | Name !! width=90% | Description
|-
| '''Rage Gauge'''<br> || The Rage meters builds the same way as it usually does except with one or two specific changes. When your gauge is filled your character will perform a special taunt signifying that it is full, during this special taunt your character is completely invincible. You can also perform your characters "secret move" and it can be done as many times as you as long as you whiff it, however you will no longer be able to do it if you successfully pull it off, or if your gauge completely depletes.
|-
| '''Fabric Doll'''<br> || By inputting the designated command and pressing SP will cause your character to turn into a small doll version of them self. During this mode your character can not move/attack or anything. Doesn't really have any practical use so it's mostly just for show or another way of taunting.
|-
| '''Secret Move'''<br> || The secret move is a special attack that takes up the entire rage gauge to do a devastating attack to the opponent. It can only be done upon filling the gauge to full, it can be done as many times as you as long as you whiff it. However you will no longer be able to do it if you successfully pull it off, or if your gauge completely depletes. Take note that this attack can only be done once per round.
|-
|-
| '''Destroy Weapon Attack'''<br> || The Destroy Weapon Attack (DWA) is a special that is triggered (mostly by) pressing qcf+LM, it takes up the entire rage gauge to do the attack but upon doing so the opponents weapon will be destroyed in the process. It can only be done when the gauge to full, it can also be done as many times as you like until you catch them with it or the gauge depletes. Unlike your characters secret move this attack can be done as much as you want through out the match.

The "Evade" function is a series of commands you can input to make your character dodge attacks that are aimed in designated directions. There are four different types of evasions you have access to when you choose this gauge.

| '''Evade (Neutral)''' <br> || The neutral evade is triggered simply by pressing the SP/E. Doing so will cause your character to hop in place once, the type of evade is strictly used for dodging low hitting attacks, most crouch attacks, and some special attacks that are aimed at your characters feet.

|-
| '''Evade (down-forward)'''<br> || The down-forward evade is triggered by pressing df+SP/E. If done successfully it will cause your character to roll forward on the ground for a short period, this type of evade can be used for a few things compared to the former. This evade can be used to quickly dodge jump-ins, but also a st. strong slash attack from the opponent. There is a small bit of invincibility during the roll but you have to trigger it as soon as there attack is about to hit you otherwise you'll take damage.

| '''Evade (down-backward)'''<br> || The down-backward evade is triggered by pressing db+SP/E. If done successfully it will cause your character to roll backward on the ground for a short period, this type of evade can be used the same way as the down-forward. It can still be used to quickly dodge jump-ins, and a few st. attacks with a lot of recovery frames. Preferably used during a run so that you can quickly roll away from an incoming and avoid taking damage.

| '''Evade (duck)'''<br> || The duck evade is triggered by pressing d+SP/E. If done correctly it will make your character crouch really low to the ground for a brief moment. Possibly the best evade out of the four because of how convenient it is during a match. You can use it during a run so if your opponent were to throw out an attack that hits high (like most slashes and special attacks) your character will quickly stop running to dodge the attack which is when you can move in to punish accordingly.

*Runaround (Plane-Shift) - press f+SP near opponent
*Rage Increase - press and hold L+M
*Disarm Attack - press qcf+L+M when meter is full
 
 
The "Behead/Beheading Spirits" is the sub-system from Samurai Shodown III. It takes everything from the SS II and makes it more convenient and simple. It comes with a new all-purpose "Evade" where your character can effectively avoid incoming attacks by shifting to the side. The evade also works in the air, and there is also a new "Runaround" function where your character will quickly run around the opponent to their backside leaving them susceptible to whatever attacks may come next. With this gauge you still can take damage to build meter, but you also gain the ability to charge your rage meter as well. When it is filled you will be able to use your characters "Disarm Weapon Attack".

|-
| '''Evade (All-Purpose)''' <br> || This evade (compared to the former one's) is triggered simply by pressing the SP/E. Doing so will cause your character to step to the side for about half a second. This type of evade can be used to dodge anything and everything as long as it lasts, everything from low/mid/high hitting attacks, rush attacks, jump-ins, special moves, secret moves, and even Destroy/Disarm Weapon Attacks. As good as it may sound you are still liable to get hit with something that lasts longer than your evasion (anything that lasts longer than half a second).

|-
| '''Evade Air (All-Purpose)''' <br> || This is an air variant of the all-purpose evade, it's activated by pressing SP/E in the air. This one works a lot less like an evasion and more like an air parry, example if you use it against a dp attack your character will deflect the attack to prevent taking damage. However your character can evade normal air attacks and evade like usual but the timing is a bit awkward.

| '''Runaround (Plane-Shift)'''<br> || Runaround is a quick plane-shift movement that makes your character maneuver behind the opponents back leaving them wide open, it's triggered by pressing f+SP when you're close to the opponent. It's extremely useful for quickly dodging special attacks and destroying weapon attacks that have a long start-up so that you can punish them with something really powerful. It can also be done during a run which is done by pressing f (hold) f then SP when you get close.

|-
| '''Rage Increase'''<br> || Rage increase is new function that allows you to fill your rage gauge by pressing and holding L+M at the same time. Doing so will make your character stand still and start to charge meter, during this time you are susceptible to any and all incoming attacks and the only way to guard is to stop charging and guard. To fully charge meter it takes about 3 seconds if done all at once.
|[[Samurai Shodown VI/Ocha-Maro|Ocha-Maro]]
|-
|[[Samurai Shodown VI/Nicotine|Nicotine]]
| '''Disarm Attack'''<br> || The Disarm Attack (DA) is a special that is triggered (mostly by) pressing qcf+LM, it takes up the entire rage gauge to do the attack but upon doing so the opponent will drop there weapon rendering them disarmed. It can only be done when the gauge to full, it can also be done as many times as you like until you catch them with it or the gauge depletes. Unlike your characters secret move this attack can be done as much as you want through out the match. Take note that even though you will disarm them they can still go pick their weapon up so stay alert, try to always keep mind how close they are to there weapon and try to keep them away from it.

===Rage Gauge===
[[Category:Samurai Shodown VI]]
 
*The special taunt that was with the SS II gauge is gone, taking damage will still fill the gauge.
 
 
==Heaven/Heavenly Spirits (IV)==
[[Image:Samurai_Shodown_IV.jpeg]]
 
[[Image:SS_IV_Heaven_Spirits.png]]
 
 
'''Basic Commands'''
 
*Run - press f, (hold) f
*Hop Backward - press b, b
*Jump - press ub/u/uf
*Crouch - press db/d/df
*Down Attack - df+S
*Parry - qcf+SP
*Empty Parry - qcf+SP (no weapon)
*Rage Gauge
*Evade (All-Purpose) - press SP
*Runaround (Plane-Shift) - press f+SP near opponent
*Disarm Attack - press qcf+L+M when meter is full
 
 
'''New'''
*Continuous Slash Starter
*Continuous Slash I~IV
*Rage Burst - press L+M+S
*Flashing Strike - press L+M+S during Rage Burst
 
 
The "Heaven/Heavenly Spirits" is the sub-system from Samurai Shodown IV. A much more combo oriented style gauge that still manages to reward you for taking damage. It still retains the all-purpose "Evade" and "runaround" function from the SS III gauge along with the "Disarm Attack". The new "Continuous Slash" is a new attack system that allows your character access to a preset list of attacks that be use to simply do damage or build meter. "Rage Burst" and "Flashing Strike" are two new command that can only be used through sacrificing the use of your gauge, use at your own risk.
 
 
===Continuous Slash===
 
Continuous Slash is a preset list of normals that can be linked together, like a quick combo system.
 
 
'''Continuous Slash Starter'''
 
*Continuous Slash Starter is the combo starter, it is activated by press L+M when you are near the opponent, it usually comes out as quick shove or a hit from the hilt of the weapon they're holding which will cause the opponent to stagger. It's fast enough for you to score a counter attack with it and it can also be done during a run.
 
 
'''Continuous Slash I'''
 
*press L+M then L, L, L
 
*A very quick triple light slash combo that knocks down on the last hit, if you have trouble getting the second light slash to come out it's probably because you were either pressing the buttons too fast or too slow. Learn to get a feel for the timing then executing it should become a lot easier.
 
 
'''Continuous Slash II'''
 
*press L+M then M, M, S
 
*A lot better than the previous combo, unlike the Lx3 combo this one can be canceled into special attacks at the end. Most special attacks are prone to whiff after the third strike but Disarm Attacks tends to get the job done just fine.
 
 
'''Continuous Slash III'''
 
*press L+M then S, S, K
 
*Another simple combo, it starts with two strong slashes then another attack to knock them onto the ground. It's really special so just consider it a stronger variant than the first Continuous Slash.
 
 
'''Continuous Slash IV'''
 
*press L+M, then L, L, M, M, S, S, S
 
*The best and stronger out of the four, will it may seem a bit difficult to pull off it's well worth it. The entire combo does at 25% damage on it's own and it will also give 20% meter for pulling off the whole combo. Try to remember that the timing isn't the same for all characters because not all characters have the same amount of start-up frames on their normals.
 
 
===Rage Burst===
 
*Rage Burst can only be triggered by pressing L+M+S all at the same time, upon activation your character will pose then send out a red electric wave staggering the opponent. After the opponent is staggered your Rage Gauge will instantly be full and engulfed in flames then will start to deplete over time, take note that if your gauge depletes during Rage Burst you will no longer have access to it through out the rest of the fight. During this mode you will be able to do your characters "Flashing Strike".
 
 
'''Flashing Strike'''
*Flashing is triggered pressing L+M+S again during Rage Burst, if done successfully your character will dash forward attacking the opponent and delivering a finishing strike where the screen turns white/black doing around 50% damage. This move is fast but it can be guarded, if it is guarded you'll bounce of their guard then your gauge will immediately deplete and be locked for the rest of the fight. There aren't many ways to combo into it either as your opponent may just chicken guard until your gauge is empty, if your going to use it try catching them during the stagger of the Rage Burst.

'''Basic Commands'''
 
*Run - press f, (hold) f
*Hop Backward - press b, b
*Jump - press ub/u/uf
*Crouch - press db/d/df
*Down Attack - df+S
*Parry - qcf+SP
*Empty Parry - qcf+SP (no weapon)
*Rage Gauge
*Evade (forward) - Press df+SP
*Evade (backward) - Press db+SP
*Evade (crouch) - Press d+SP
*Evade (Hop) - Press N/b+SP
*Disarm Attack - press qcf+L+M when meter is full
*Rage Burst - press L+M+S
*Flashing Strike - press L+M+S during Rage Burst
 
'''New'''
*Evade (Hop Forward) - press f+SP
*Meditation - press and hold L+M (depletes meter)
*Null
*Neverland - press K+SP during the last round and while the Null gauge is shining
 
 
The "Null/Nullify Spirits" is the sub-system from Samurai Shodown V. This gauge is more for people who aim to be a jack-of-all trades than just being limited to focus of offense or defense. It gains the "Evade" from the function from the SS II gauge along with a new forward evade. "Rage Burst" and "Flashing Strike" are still there but can be used in more convenient ways because of the new "Null" and "Neverland" command that takes advantage of the speed of the game slowing your opponent down for a brief period. Meditation can also be used to heal and raise your characters Null gauge through consuming your Rage Gauge, because of it's advanced tech heavy system it's recommended for high level players only.
 
 
===Evade (Hop-Forward)===
 
The forward evade is triggered simply by pressing the f+SP/E. Doing so will cause your character to hop forward once, this type of evade is more for that extra leap of space instead running towards your opponent, unlike other evasions your character will completely recover as soon as they touch the ground.
 
 
===Null===
 
Null is the function that allows you go into Neverland during the last round, the higher your Null Health (the light blue part of your health meter) is the faster you can go into Neverland mode.
 
 
===Meditation===
 
Neverland is when the character triggers a mode that causes the opponent and everything associated with them slows down to about 1/4 speed, during this mode you can attack them, do a special, and do your characters Flashing Strike. Failure to do your Flashing Strike (e.g. they guard it) will immediately cancel Neverland mode, getting hit will also cancel it so stay alert.
 
 
===Flashing Strike===
 
Flashing Strike can only be done during Neverland mode compared to Rage Burst, however the buttons are still the same.

Introduction

Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuden (サムライスピリッツ 天下一剣客伝)

Samurai Shodown VI brings together every playable character from the Neo Geo MVS entries, with legacy characters who were missing from V Special making their return, and six subsystems to choose from inspired by each numbered entry, including a new system for VI itself. Additionally, four new characters have been introduced and there is one secret character, resulting in a total of 41 characters in the arcade version. The console ports feature seven additional characters, four EX versions and three extra subsystems.

The arcade game is playable online via Flycast Dojo's Atomiswave emulation, using Fightcade 2 for matchmaking. For console versions, there's Dolphin and PCSX2.
