Heihachi is a rushdown [[Mishima]]-style character who excels at pressuring opponents and wearing down their defense with arguably the strongest mid attacks in the game. His combo damage is extremely high, he has tremendous chip damage potential in [[Heat]], and his new stance options grant amazing [[mixup]] opportunities. The classic Mishima staple moves such as [[Electric Wind God Fist]] and Flash Punch Combo (1,1,2) are as strong as ever, and his new i18 Indra's Kick (B+4) is a devastating long-range safe-on-block [[counter hit]] launcher. These tools grant Heihachi an extremely potent defensive capability that synergizes perfectly with his aggressive gameplan. However, Heihachi's strengths come at the cost of having lackluster lows, a demanding execution barrier, and requiring strong fundamentals to be played to his max potential. | Heihachi is a rushdown [[Mishima]]-style character who excels at pressuring opponents and wearing down their defense with arguably the strongest mid attacks in the game.

Upon entering Heat three different times over the course of a match, Heihachi is able to activate a powered up state known as Warrior Instinct for the remainder of the round. Upon activation (1+4), he receives several major buffs to his kit. He gains an i13 launcher known as Ultimate Muso Renken (df+2,1), his [[hellsweep]] can lead into follow up attacks even when blocked, Left Splits Kick (f,F+3) becomes +1 on block | Upon entering Heat three different times over the course of a match, Heihachi is able to activate a powered up state known as Warrior Instinct for the remainder of the round.

Heihachi can struggle against patient opponents, and is forced to commit to his unrewarding and launch punishable lows in order to open them up. Many of Heihachi's pokes are extremely [[linear]], and his Mishima tools are weak to SSL as expected. | Heihachi can struggle against patient opponents, and is forced to commit to his unrewarding and launch punishable lows in order to open them up.

Heihachi is a rushdown Mishima-style character who excels at pressuring opponents and wearing down their defense with arguably the strongest mid attacks in the game. His combo damage is extremely high, he has tremendous chip damage potential in Heat, and his new stance options grant amazing mixup opportunities. The classic Mishima staple moves such as Electric Wind God Fist and Flash Punch Combo (1,1,2) are as strong as ever, and his new i18 Indra's Kick (B+4) is a devastating long-range safe-on-block counter hit launcher. These tools grant Heihachi an extremely potent defensive capability that synergizes perfectly with his aggressive gameplan. However, Heihachi's strengths come at the cost of having lackluster lows, a demanding execution barrier, and requiring strong fundamentals to be played to his max potential.
Upon entering Heat three different times over the course of a match, Heihachi is able to activate a powered up state known as Warrior Instinct for the remainder of the round. Upon activation (1+4), he receives several major buffs to his kit. He gains an i13 launcher known as Ultimate Muso Renken (df+2,1), his hellsweep can lead into follow up attacks even when blocked, Left Splits Kick (f,F+3) becomes +1 on block. Several other moves such as Flash Punch Combo, Demon Breath (1+2), and Demon God Fist (f,F+2) are granted enhanced damage and wall splatting properties. After the round ends, Heihachi is no longer able to access Warrior Instinct for the rest of the match.
Heihachi can struggle against patient opponents, and is forced to commit to his unrewarding and launch punishable lows in order to open them up. Many of Heihachi's pokes are extremely linear, and his Mishima tools are weak to SSL as expected.
- Classic Mishima toolkit, such as wavedash, EWGF, hellsweep, Left/Right Splits Kick, and his iconic Flash Punch Combo as a i10 hit-confirmable wallsplat.
- Explosive damage potential in the open or with walls, excellent wall carry bnbs
- Powerful stance mixups, is not forced to use stance pressure in neutral to create opportunities
- Warrior Instinct grants enhanced wallsplatting effects and damage on several moves, a 13f df+2,1 launcher, and hellsweep follow ups even if the first hit is blocked.
- f+1+2 becomes a devastating i12 launch punish during Heat (with a frame perfect f,F+1+2 Heat Dash) or while Warrior Instinct is active
- Cool hair
- Generic pokes are worse than other Mishimas, with linearity and bad frame data being the main culprits
- Most lows are launch punishable, with below average damage or frame advantage on hit
- Relies entirely on Heat to access Warrior Instinct, making Heat usage more predictable
- Requires good execution to get the most out of punish opportunities
- He's really old
