Tenha No Kata

The Tenha No Kata is Karin's second V-Trigger in Street Fighter V.

Description


While active, Karin gains access to her counter move, Yasha Gaeshi Tenchi by pressing Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick simultaneously. The type of counter Karin performs depends on what type of attack she parries.

If Karin is countering a low attack, she will perform the Yasha Gaeshi Chi. This will put the opponent in a crumbling state, similar to when she hits them with EX Orochi. If Karin is countering medium or high attacks, she will perform the Yasha Gaeshi Ten. This will launch the opponent, allowing Karin to follow up with a special attack.

Both moves can be canceled into from the recovery of her special moves and V-Skill. This is very helpful because it allows Karin to turn situations where she's normally at a disadvantage, into her favor. Of course, if she does not successfully parries the attack or mistimes it, she will vulnerable to the opponent's Cruch Counter moves.
