Kazuya Mishima

Kazuya Mishima is one of the playable characters in Super Smash Bros Tourney Legends

## Neutral B: Devil Blaster

Assumes his devil form to unleash an energy beam from his forehead, similar to Robo Beam. In the air, it causes Kazuya to hover briefly. The laser covers a long distance, granting it edgeguarding capabilities, and it also deals rather high knockback. He can also aim it up or down; by default, the laser fires directly forward on the ground, and diagonally down if used in the air (aiming up in this case fires it directly forward). It can travel through two opponents before stopping on a third; the second opponent will take 0.75× damage and the third will take 0.5×. The laser has high startup and ending lag, and Kazuya can only use it once in the air without landing.

## Up B: Devil Wings

Assumes his devil form to soar upward. He can move forward or back while doing so, and contact with the claws on his wings will damage enemies. It does not cause helplessness, allowing for attacks or an airdodge after, although it has such high ending lag (lasting till after the peak of the jump) that it is ineffective for pursuing opponents for aerial followups. Kazuya cannot use his side special if Devil Wings is already used.

## Side B: Devil Fist

Assumes his devil form to perform a straight lunge that travels through the opponent. If close, he will cause the opponent to crumple, similar to Focus Attack. If the opponent is in the air or gets hit late, they will instead be launched upward. It can be used in the air for a brief forward boost and it doesn't cause helplessness. However, its distance is poor and Kazuya is unable to use Devil Wings after, making his horizontal recovery very poor. It also has high ending lag and does not go through shields, making it punishable if shielded.

## Down B: Heaven's Door

A grab with heavy armor where Kazuya uppercuts in front of him. If it connects, Kazuya will grab the opponent by the head, fly into the air in his devil form, before diving and slamming them into the ground. The momentum of the grab can be altered with the directional inputs to move forward or back; the opponent can also resist in the same way, being more effective if they are at low percent. It can be used as a sacrificial KO much like Flying Slam, though it causes Kazuya to be KO'd first. The slam can affect bystanders, causes Special Zoom even if shielded, and is significantly stronger, making it powerful in team battles. If the uppercut misses in the air, it causes Kazuya to hover briefly.

If Kazuya's Rage is active, the move (when used on the ground) becomes a more damaging version known as *Rage Drive*, which consumes the Rage if it lands and deals additional damage to the opponent upon hitting the ground. It replaces various attacks while Rage is active: performing a grab, down special, or → ↓ ↘ + Attack input all performs Rage Drive, though the command input version deals the most damage and knockback.

## Level 1 Final Smash: Devil Beam

Staggers his opponent with a *Glorious Demon God Fist* and then launches them with an *Electric Wind Godfist*. He then transforms into Devil and fires a strong forehead laser into his opponent as they fall to the ground.

## Level 2 Final Smash: Devil's Curse

The screen turns grey (excluding fighters). Kazuya then does a weak, rapid combo of four punches, two kicks, then Kazuya does a punch in the stomach. He then punches the opponent so hard that they step back. As they double over in pain, Kazuya hooks their head and finishes off with a lightning dragon uppercut.

## Level 3 Final Smash: Final Blaster

Kazuya uses Devil Blaster and, if it hits an opponent, the music stops and a cutscene will play where Kazuya announces "This will be your burial ground!", before shooting out multiple lasers from his chest and wings that strike opponents while in a volcanic landscape. Because of how far it reaches, it is capable of KOing incredibly early near ledges. It is based on a variation of Kazuya's Rage Art exclusive to *Tekken 7*'s story mode that he uses in his final battle against Heihachi Mishima.

## Trivia:

* Kazuya's rival is Wesley Lambert, a VSSE agent and Alan Dunaway's partner.
