Plus back then the "Recently Possessed" and "Recently Frozen" statuses never existed, so Kihaku was always free to spam Katsu Jinken and deny the opponents every turn.Lead your Monster Legends into arena battles in this fighting game. Back then AoE 50% skills were actually 100% and would always land.

Some of his skills are based on real Judo moves."Kihaku" is a Japanese term that refers to vigor or fighting spirit.This still makes him easy to deny, so feel free to use any denier on him (although ones with higher accuracy or can stun twice, like Sherezar or Nabuline respectively, work better). His umbrella trait covers him about 20% of the time from all negative status effects.Kihaku is completely useless against monsters with Control immunity, so monsters like Urtikus can also beat him, Mop gets a huge sponsor since he has Control immunity and the elemental advantage.Thunder Attackers, like Talany, can easily take him down.Recommended Relics: Nabuline's Trap, Mantis Claws Trap, Oblation Trap Counters Katsu Jinken (AoE 50% chance of Possession + Freeze, 42s, 0 CD).Mokuso / Kiai (Mokuso for 30 Special dmg + AoE PER, 32s, 2 CD) / (Kiai for Team Regeneration + Stamina Regeneration, 13s, 3 CD).Agatsu (40 Special dmg + Possession + Freeze, 33s, 2 CD).Kuzushi (AoE 30 Special dmg + Possession + Freeze, 54s, 3 CD).Recommended Moveset The One And Only Dragon Relics are trash, being a denier and given how frail Kihaku is.Best moves have high stamina costs and high cooldowns.Good cursing skills in PER and Stamina Drain.Team Regeneration + Stamina Regeneration.In conclusion, he's an average Denier-Support, and a good option for beginners. He's not useless in the slightest, but his deny build just isn't quite cutting it like it used to. Despite his nerfs, however, he can still be played with different sets that definitely work well. Now, he is outclassed by better and modern Deniers. Kihaku was the best Denier back in the day, but now the 50% patch and the addition of Recently Frozen and Possessed effects nerfed him a lot.
