Strategy
Fittingly, Shino's general gameplan revolves around his use of bugs, specifically . After a knockdown Shino can lay bugs on the ground giving him a massive advantage. Shino can tick throw after the opponent is forced to block bugs or strike if he predicts a throw break. He can then snowball his advantage, getting another knockdown and laying more bugs. Bugs can be destroyed by being hit with a special attack, most often opposing air projectiles. All bugs also disappear if Shino is hit with an attack, making it risky for Shino to attempt to lay bugs while the opponent is in striking distance, though previously summoned bugs may protect him (including from wake-up-kick).
