Overview
Overview

Hazama is a unique offensive character with unconventional, yet powerful, mobility tools. With his stepdash and short normals, Hazama may seem weak at first. However, his Drive allows him to fire out a series of chain grappling hooks as an amazing approaching tool with several followups. Paired with his stance and other specials, Hazama has a variety of tools to approach and open up any character as he chooses. He needs to be careful with how he approaches, however, as his Drive is a limited resource and he lacks defensive tools outside of system mechanics. Played well, Hazama uses his toolset to engage from almost anywhere on the screen and open up his opponents.

Named after a snake that eats its own tail, Hazama's Drive is manifested as a stretching chain in the shape of a snake. He can cover many different angles and distances by shooting a Drive move. What's more is that, at any point during the chain's travel, Hazama can follow up by either retracting the chain (~A) or using the snake head as an anchor point to slingshot him around the stage (~B, ~C, or ~D).

Most of the time, if the snake head hits the opponent, you can follow up by zipping in with ~D and linking an air normal to convert into a combo. However, there are certain distances (which differ for each Drive move) where the chain will cause minimal hit or block stun, so you must be careful not to try and hit your opponent with chains up close or in the particular chain's "dead zone".

  • Each version of Hazama's drive experiences Same Move Proration, so it's important to vary drives to maximise damage.
  • All of Hazama's Drive moves add 200% heat meter gain to the combo.

In order to prevent Hazama being able to fly around indefinitely using his drive and stalling for time, his drive has a limited number of uses. Below is a detail about the Chain mechanics:

  • Maximum of 2 stocks.
  • 1 Stock is consumed upon using either A, B, C, or D cancels. Launching a chain does not consume a stock.
  • Hazama will regain 2 stocks on any chain hit, meaning that stocks are essentially unlimited when actually hitting and comboing his opponent.
    • Hazama will not gain stocks if the chain is blocked however.
  • There is a complex internal timer to regain both stocks:
    • While grounded, the timer is 150F long.
    • The timer counts at half the speed while Hazama is airborne and cannot count beyond 60% of the total time needed to refill.
    • Both stocks are regained at the same time when the timer is filled and this does not change if you currently have 0 or 1 stocks remaining.
    • The timer is reset every time a stock is used.
    • The timer does not count upwards at all while Hazama is in hitstun.
Temporary boss mode.

When Hazama enters Overdrive, the limiter on his chains is released, eliminating the aforementioned "dead zone" and changing all chains to become their far versions and deal double damage. His chain stocks also recovers 3 times faster and is no longer limited by being airborne. He also gains a life-stealing ring that encompasses a large radius around him, meaning that anybody close to Hazama will have their health slowly leeched away. The life-steal ring does not persist while you are in hitstun (i.e., being combo'd). However, if you use a Distortion Drive or Exceed Accel and run out of Overdrive time during those moves, the ring will remain in effect until the move itself ends.

  • For every 10 frames inside the ring, the life-stealing ring takes 20 health from the opponent and heals 25 health for himself.
  • The life-stealing ring cannot kill the opponent.
  • No health will be stolen (nor will be healed) if opponent's HP is at 1.

5C has poor horizontal range and a long recovery, but is still a great button to have. It has the lowest proration of any move Hazama has, making it his most rewarding combo starter. On a crouching opponent or on counter-hit, it can link into 6C, which can grant significant damage and corner carry. Has a decently big cancel window, and can gatling into 6C or a delayed 2C on block for a frame trap.

Despite its short range horizontally, its vertical range is actually quite good. This combined with its high reward on hit makes it a useful anti-air in some situations.

2B has good reach relative to its speed, low recovery, and very low profile, making it useful for beating the opponent's pokes. That being said, the range itself is not great, so you'll have to know your spacing. In pressure, it is a very fast low and a good setup for tick throws, making it an essential tool in his mix-up.

This move is good for stagger pressure. Its longer range allows Hazama to tackle an extra hit to frame trap while still having an opportunity to rest pressure compared to 5C, 3C or 236A. It can also punish DP attempts thanks to hitting low.

The high-risk, high-rewarding anti air move. The head invulnerability on this move doesn't kick in until over halfway through its lengthy startup, so at times, you will have to use quicker anti-airs such as 5A.

Since this move has crouching recovery, whiffing this move will lead to very unfavorable positions. On hit, however, it is highly rewarding. On counter-hit, you can cancel into 214D and use a stance follow-up to start a strong combo, or Jakou to side switch.

Also jump-cancellable on block, which can be used for pressure extensions.

Anti-air hits off of this attack can often lead to good meterless combos, even without a counter hit. It is, however, highly inadvisable to use 6A as an anti-air in most situations. It may be worth practicing anti-air 6A starter combos to have handy in the rare event that you get one of these. Just don't go fishing for them.

Low attack with significant startup, giving it a built-in high/low mixup with 6A. If an opponent blocks this move, Hazama is +1, leaving them with no effective options aside from blocking and reversals. It's also a Fatal Counter, which gives it an extra threat as a starter. However, the startup will generally leave a gap in pressure on use, so use it sparingly.

Just like 6A, anti-air hits with this move can be highly rewarding, but this is still not a good idea to use as an anti-air.

This move is used as filler in Hazama's more damaging combos due to floor bounce and massive meter gain on hit. Outside of combo filler, it can create a natural frame trap if you gatling into it off some normals, which can add another layer to Hazama's pressure. 6C is also +1 on block and cancellable into any Drive on hit or block, making attempting this relatively low-risk. Be aware of Barrier however; despite it is a Projectile, you still experience pushback, and will allow them to escape the chain afterwards.

Most OTG chain confirms (such as OTG j.6D) can link into this move if used early enough in a combo. This is slightly character-dependent, but a good combo extender to keep in mind.

Jump-in normal that can be repeated up to 5 times. Okay as an approach sometimes, but especially useful in combos. Better used to keep your opponent from approaching you instead in scrambly situations. Only the first two hits are jump-cancellable; j.Cx2 > jump > j.Cx5 is a key combo piece. (Typically notated as j.C7)

This attack set also functions as an up to quintuple overhead, primarily during low altitude air dashes. This sacrifices damage for added mix-up potential.

Normal Version

Not your best chain for neutral. It's range, "Far" version startup, and angles it can cover are all subpar compared to other Drives, so it's often outclassed by chains such as j.D. It's useful as a combo extender and for pressures in some situations, though.


Overdrive Version

Under Overdrive, the hitstun greatly increases regardless of the range, allowing you to rapidly pressuring and change positions. You can now use specials in close distance to develop more mixups, or you can perform a side switch by doing a cap-shaped loop (5D~D > j.2D~D) infinitely.

Normal Version

This chain is good for tricky movement. 2D~D will launch you sky high, and 2D~B will slingshot you from one side of the stage to the other. 2D~C can be used to set up mixups.

This chain is often seen in corner combos when the opponent is high in the air. It is also used in midscreen strings for additional damage and corner carry, such as after 5D~D, you can perform whiff j.2C > 5C > 2D.


Overdrive Version

Under Overdrive, 2D~A has no deadzone, allowing you to cash out more damage by simply doing OTG 5C > 2D~A.

This chain is fairly good. It has longer reach than ground 5D and isn't as fixed as 5D either (i.e. you can use it at different heights). Good for pressing grounded or aerial opponents. Can use to either keep opponents away or go in on them. Since chain follow-ups can be canceled faster now, j.5D~D into another aerial chain like j.6D or j.4D is quite the slick maneuver if you want to close the gap between you and your opponent.

This chain isn't used much in combos, but if you land it on an opponent as a starter, don't be afraid to chain in.

This chain is good for those times that you're really high up in the air and you want to get back on the ground quicker or hit the opponent if they're directly under you. This chain has a deceptively generous horizontal hitbox, letting it hit opponents at angles you wouldn't expect.

This chain can be used to catch opponents who are dashing in on you and are close enough to where j.6D would not hit with maximum hitstun or would whiff entirely. It can also be used like j.2D to catch opponents while you are at high altitudes.

Also not seen in combos that much, but like j.5D and j.2D, it is a strong potential starter.

Sometimes, it's best not to chain in, especially on block, where your opponent can punish you with an anti-air. Using this follow-up on air chains can open up some interesting mix up opportunities, like baiting bad anti-airs. Also good to use for further harassment at long distances or to play lame when you have a life lead.

In combos, it is a staple follow-up in order to combo into another chain hit or JakouBBCF Hazama 623Dexe.pngGuardBarrierStartup14RecoveryTotal: 55Advantage-.

Do note that this follow-up also costs a stock, unlike in certain previous version; don't play with your chains recklessly when you're in 0 stock. In case you don't want to spend one but still want to cancel the chains (on block only), do j.214B in case of air chains, or 214D in long range, and 236A in close range to return to safety.

A decent neutral tool and blockstring ender thanks to its reach, frame advantage, and properties on counter-hit. Be aware of IB as it will become -4.

In short midscreen combos, you can use this after 3C to add some significant corner carry at the cost of the oki options you'd get after a closer knockdown, or to do Rekkazan (632146C) to finish off your opponent. In the corner, 3C > Jabaki > dash 5C > ~ can help set up a decent meterless combo.

On counter hit, the untechable increases, and you can follow-up in midscreen with j.6D to catch the slide.

A useful close range pressure maker that can force the opponent to play a guessing game with you. Also an essential combo tool.

Causes a crumple on ground hit and a ground bounce on air hit. After the hit lands, Hazama will enter the stance automatically. For the first 22 frames, Hazama can use normal versions of his Stance specials. After that, Hazama will use the Charged version of his stance moves.

Note that this move is very susceptible to IBs as its main follow-ups are all punishable under IB, so don't be predictable when using this in blockstrings.

It's also notable that, since the Stance is a part of the moves recovery, you can rapid-cancel during it, though this goes away if you dash during the stance.

  • Hits opponents OTG trying to late rise.
  • Frame advantage refers to when you can do a stance followup; assuming an immediate stance cancel, you're -3 on block.

Hazama's stance special. Gives access to three powerful specials that can be used to either start or extend combos on hit, and a fully invincible super command grab. This creates scary mixup potential that can put the opponent on edge. Unlike Jagai, all follow-ups are always enhanced, Hazama will gain a green afterimage when he is ready to attack with these. Follow-ups can all be avoided by jumping back and barrier blocking if you get predictable with your mixups, so remember to vary your pressure.

Can be cancelled into a stance cancel or Orochi BurensouBBCF Hazama stomp1.pngGuardThrow(80)Startup12+(30 Flash)+0Recovery40Advantage- as early as frame 1, further enhancing its potential for pressure. If left uncancelled, though, Hazama is stuck in place for at least 22 frames and is in a counter hit state the entire time.

A forward-moving, relatively fast overhead.


Uncharged

The forward movement is nice because it allows you to do an overhead in places where 6A wouldn't reach, especially if you get pushed out by barrier blocking. Beats out lows and throws during pressure, but loses to fast standing attacks and reversals. Easily comboable on CH, and can be followed up on crouching opponents with a 2A. If you don't microdash the 2A, you'll need to have a slightly longer microdash later in the combo for consistency.

Be aware when using in blockstring as there is a gap between Jagai and this, during which you can be hit by any 5A. With Zaneiga (which blows up standing attacks) this is a natural high-low mixup, although it can be easily jump guarded.

Forward Ressenga (66A) covers more range, but the increased startup makes it suspectable to more attacks.


Charged

Causes a hard knockdown on hit. Frequently used in combos after ground chains. Also useful as a high-low mixup on okizeme alongside enhanced Zaneiga.

An anti-air rising kick with a large vertical reach. Hazama's normal anti-airs are good, but this one has additional practicality due to its invincibility. Cannot be used on wakeup due to the time it takes for stance attacks to come out.

The normal version of this move is key for converting midscreen meterless strings into extended combos. As a mixup, it beats out any normal attack and throws, but is extremely unsafe on block and can be low-profiled. Use sparingly against opponents that continually disrespect you.

A low option out of stance. Also one of the strongest combo starters/extenders in Hazama's arsenal.


Uncharged

Normal version is the go-to move to end combos midscreen after 214B for oki. Landing a counter-hit with this can net a good combo with or without meter.

In pressure this beats standing attacks, and can clash or even go through certain reversals with proper timing. However it can be easily jumped away, and IBing Jagai will make this punishable by fast attacks and throws. To compensate with IB issue, mix with delayed backward Zaneiga (44C) to blow them up if they keep disrespecting you, or do nothing (D) if they kept DPing.


Charged

Charged version causes the opponent to go into a long air-spin, leading to damaging combos. Good follow-up from CH 3C, throws, or Houtenjin.

Sometimes, it's best not to do anything at all. Stance-cancelling is good if you think your opponent is going to predict your stance mix-up, or if you've been pushed far enough out that your follow-ups will whiff without forward stance dashing. It can also be used to make chains have less recovery on block.

Your sole movement option during stance, which is useful for a variety of reasons. You can use this to position the follow-ups for maximum effectiveness, most notably to forward dash so his super command grab will connect. Follow-ups are available immediately during either version of Serpent's Redemption.

You can dash forward as many times as you like, but can dash backwards only once. If done from Jagai, the time until you're able to use charged versions of the follow-ups still continues. This means that dashing backwards from Jagai isn't completely the end of your pressure, as you'll eventually be able to use a charged Ressenga to put yourself back in the opponent's face if they don't move away.

A special anti-air chain that catches opponents and flings them behind Hazama. Cannot hit grounded opponents at all. Very risky as an anti-air, though it has some niche applications, such as if Mai is charging a spear in the air. Its true calling is as a combo piece; it's a great way to change positioning during a combo due to the side switch, and it tacks on a good deal of damage.

If close to the corner, but not close enough to trigger the wallbounce, you can combo after this by RCing the second hit then following up with j.6D~D. On corner wallbounce, many things can be linked afterwards though most of the time it's safer just to OTG 5C into some ender. Can now cancel into Eternal Coils of the Dragon Serpent easier after chain is almost retracted.

  • Inflicts Fatal Counter, and on fatal will triggers wallbounce anywhere.
  • Unlike Hazama's normal drive moves, this must be barrier blocked.

900 All 10 Until L 16 H

An aerial spike that sends Hazama straight down to the ground. Not an overhead, but ground bounces on CH, giving it some pressure applications. Primarily used to end air combos, but can be used to get Hazama down from the air without wasting a chain stock, or can even be used in mixups and feints due to its unique whiff recovery property.

On whiff, the recovery is cancelable into anything except blocking, jumping and backdash, starting five frames after Hazama lands on the ground. This means that this move is punishable by some fast, far-range attacks, such as  Ragna's Carnage ScissorsBBCF Ragna the Bloodedge 632146D.pngGuardAllStartup9+(40 Flash)+4~12Recovery58Advantage-43 [-40]. To go around this, you can cancel it into forward walk, then block; this effectively bypasses the recovery entirely, since walking has no recovery/startup.

Never use this to hit an opponent who is directly below you in neutral; Hazama's leg has a massive hurtbox, meaning most attacks can hit you out of this. If you managed to tag them with a j2D, though, Jameijin is a potential followup.

A command grab that launches opponent into the air directly in front of Hazama. You aren't going to get huge damage from this most of the time, but is still a good tool for pressure, okizeme, and combos due to the favorable position after landing it. Do dash 5C into 2D for the follow-up.

Most common guesses to chain into is the same as how you do tick throw, such as after 5A, 2A or 2B. All tick throw options will be greatly affected by Barrier, which makes it harder to land due to longer startup. But with 50 meter, 214B (point blank) > RC > 236C as an Okizeme is very hard to react to, Barrier will not help them, and your opponent will never expect it (they can fuzzy out, of course).

It is worth mentioning that this attack is invulnerable to all throw-attribute attacks during startup.

The famous Houtenjin move that is decent in many ways.


Normal Version

Not an invincible reversal, despite its appearance. Due to its speed, it can still take advantage of gaps in opponents pressure or punish otherwise safe moves, though this largely depends on the gap in the blockstring, the type of blocking used, etc. Outside of that, its the main way to get reward off normal hit 6A or 6B, and if used off the right combo starter (such as 5C or 3C), you can land damage anywhere between 4-5K, making this a good investment for combos.


Overdrive Version

In Overdrive, this move is now invincible on startup. Have fun.

As a wake-up reversal, you can check whether if they have attacked during the startup of your Overdrive, and if not then you can hold your meter until they have a gap you can reversal out.

  • 20% Minimum damage: 390 [420]. You probably aren't using this for minimum damage.
  • Fatal Counters, but it is a Normal starter so cashing out more on FC is impossible.

Combo ender. Spawns a projectile at the floor underneath the opponent; if it hits, Hazama pulls them in and slices them into confetti. The projectile has a minimum range and can spawn offscreen. In Overdrive, it will spawn at the edge of the screen if it would otherwise spawn beyond that.


Normal Version

Since it is projectile invulnerable, it can be used during neutral to punish projectile moves from far ranges. During combos you'll generally use this after 623D since it positions them nicely for it, and it can be super canceled into.

If you Rapid Cancel at the right time, you can regain control of Hazama with the opponent still stuck in the coils. Not the most meter-efficient setup; use only if you're going to win the round with the next hit and you feel like being an ass.


Overdrive Version

OD version is even better for ending combos, tacking on huge damage along with Hazama's OD life drain ring stealing health until the end of the animation, even if Overdrive expires during it. Use when you need to anti-burst, or to deal more to close out the round.

Hazama's super command grab.


Normal Version

It's invulnerable until its active frames and does some pretty good damage. Since it is active immediately after superflash, your opponent cannot jump in superflash to response.

This move makes stance forward dash very threatening and opens up more mix-up potential to really crumble your opponent. Since it can come out on the first frame of stance, you can also use this as a handy situational reversal.

Due to the game's input leniency, 632146DD registers as a proper input for stance activation into immediate Burensou. This makes quick command grabs in pressure easier to utilize consistently.


Overdrive Version

During Overdrive it deals more damage, and heals Hazama significantly. The animation also gets longer in OD, allowing his life-steal ring to do more work.

  • 100% Minimum damage: 2553 [3009]
  • With lifesteal, the minimum damage in OD goes up to at least 4149, with Hazama recovering at least 1425 health. This will kill all opponents in the red health range.

Your Exceed Accel, giving Hazama another reversal option.

Swaps sides on hit, and the life-steal ring remains active until the animation ends, letting you drain a lot of health. Otherwise behaves the same as every other Exceed Accel. Has good range and is the only meterless reversal Hazama has, and is the most damaging Exceed Accel bar none due to the added lifesteal. However, you're usually better off not using it and staying in Overdrive instead, both due to the strength of Hazama's Overdrive and because OD Houtenjin is a far more rewarding reversal.
