Nagoriyuki 
Nagoriyuki (名残雪), classified as a One Shot type, is a noble vampire samurai whose vampiric blade delivers devastating blows.
- Long Normals: His giant katana lets him control the screen from far ranges.
- Special Cancel: Has the unique ability to cancel specials into themselves, allowing for monster conversions off the right counter-hit.
- Bloodrage: The higher his blood gauge, the better his normals are. At Max Bloodrage, he gains max-range normals and a special Overdrive.
- Damage Per-hit: Each button does a sizable chunk of damage on its own, being able to dissipate the opponent's health quickly.
- Good Super Jump: Super jump covers more horizontal and vertical distance than most, if not all of the rest of the cast.
- Limited Mobility: Does not have a normal dash, air-dash or double jump.
- Max Bloodrage: Entering Max Bloodrage forces a transformation attack that can be easily punished. It also takes away access to special moves, rapidly drains health over time, and increases damage received.
- Slow To Start: Most of his big combo starters (f.S, 5H, 2H, etc.) have higher-than-average startup.

Normal Moves
- Data in [ ] refers to Nagoriyuki in Bloodrage (BR).
5P
- Important detail about the move goes here
This, along with 2P can be mashed to keep Bloodrage from activating. This allows for some sort of mindgame.
5K
Show 'em the timbs
- Amazing poke for its speed.
A fast button with respectable range. Juggles the opponent on aerial hit, making it a staple in his combos. Also juggles into itself for easy confirms.
c.S
- Does not reduce Blood Gauge on hit or block.
Nagoriyuki uses his shortsword for a quick slash. Mostly combo and blockstring filler due to it's activation range, but very good at what it does.
f.S
- GGST Nagoriyuki f.S.png
Neutral.
- One of Nagoriyuki's biggest pokes.
- Has follow-ups if you keep pressing
. - Last follow-up knocks down.
- f.S and f.SS decreases Blood Gauge on hit (-7.2/300).
- Final hit of f.SSS decreases Blood Gauge on hit/block (OH -57.6/300, OB -7.2/300).
- Total Blood Gauge recovery for the full f.SSS on hit is (-72/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies as 3 separate instances each lasting 6 seconds.
- With Bloodrage mode, f.SSS damage increases from 14 to [45]
Nagoriyuki first stabs, then slashes with his sword twice, advancing forward with every strike. The first and second hits can be special cancelled, but the third hit cannot.
f.S.S is quite the valuable mixup tool. If nothing is pressed afterwards, Nagoriyuki will feint out the animation for f.S.S.S, which can easily keep the opponent on their toes and often let you get away with escaping a punish. What helps this is that there's a natural frame trap in between the two moves, which will hit an opponent mindlessly pressing buttons if you opt for f.S.S.S. However, since f.S.S.S is -25 on block, cannot be special cancelled, and leads to little reward on hit, it's best to use specials to punish instead. An example is Kamuriyuki, as it gives great reward on counterhit.
5H
- GGST Nagoriyuki 5H.png
Nago's Blade of Judgment to Susanoo's Michael Sword..
- Massive reach and massive damage.
- Hits nearly fullscreen in Bloodrage.
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit/block (OH -57.6/300, OB -7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
- With Blood Gauge(100-200,200-300,[Bloodrage]), range,damage and frame improved.
5D
- Does not reduce Blood Gauge on hit or block.
- j.S, j.HS, and j.D follow ups after the launch recover the Blood Gauge like normal.
Nagoriyuki uses his long sword for a quick overhead. Charged 5D + 
or CH 5D + will give you the cinematic launch. Even though Nagoriyuki lacks a double jump normally, you can double jump during the launch.
6P
- One of Nago's main anti-airs.
Much faster than 2H at the cost of being much smaller. Comes with the benefit of being a lot easier to use in a pinch.
6K
- GGST Nagoriyuki 6K.png
Big steppy
Stomp on the ground. Main way to lead into 623H after a 5K.
6H
- GGST Nagoriyuki 6H.png
- Can be used to OTG; opponent will tech instantly on connect.
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit/block (OH -57.6/300, OB -7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
- With Blood Gauge(100-200,200-300,[Bloodrage]), range, damage and frame improved.
A sword slash downwards. Due to its damage, knockdown, and the rate that it decreases the Blood Gauge, this is a good ender for certain combos. When ending a combo with 6H as an OTG, canceling into Fukyo (236K) results in favorable okizeme.
2P
2K
2S
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit (-7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
Can hit opponents trying to low profile your other moves.
2H
- GGST Nagoriyuki 2H.png
Very satisfying after hearing "COUNTER"
I still think this needs more range
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit/block (OH -57.6/300, OB -7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
- With Blood Gauge(100-200,200-300,[Bloodrage]), range, damage and frame improved.
An absolutely massive anti-air that somehow gets even bigger during Bloodrage. A move this huge will teach you how to anti-air - just don't be too predictable with it. The immense amount of recovery on this move means your turn ends if it whiffs. However, a counterhit on this can lead to a combo.
2D
j.P
j.K
j.S
Standard air-to-air poke. Gets longer in Bloodrage, making it less standard and more bloody.
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit (-7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
j.H
The guy below me is SO dead
WAIT
- A jumpin with a massive vertical hitbox that gets even larger in Bloodrage.
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit/block (OH -57.6/300, OB -7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
- With Blood Gauge(100-200,200-300,[Bloodrage]), range, damage and frame improved.
j.D
Any further and this'll reach into the description I'm pointing at
- Causes wall bounce on hit.
- Decreases Blood Gauge on hit (-7.2/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
A stab that hits diagonally upwards in front of Nagoriyuki. This also briefly stalls his air momentum on use. Mainly gets its use in Dust combos, but can probably work as an air-to-air for opponents above you.

Special Moves
Zarameyuki / 粗雪
236S
- GGST Nagoriyuki Zarameyuki.png
No Hibiki in Tag, but Hibiki in STRIVE.
- Mid-range poke
- Cancels single-hit projectiles.
- Increases Bloodgauge (+90/300).
- Persists if Nago gets hit.
- Can be cancellable into other specials.
Nagoriyuki's only projectile tool. Cancelling it into 236K can end his recovery much quicker. This can help you advance towards your opponent more if you follow up with his dash. This special can give multiple mix-up routes when the opponent is blocking given it's advantage on block. For example, you can use c.5S if the opponent tries to mash your projectile or if they precede to block, you can punish them with your command grab, (623P).
Fukyo / 不香
236K or 214K
I know you're pressing 623A, Hakumen main
- Command dash.
- 236K goes forwards, 214K goes backwards.
- Cancelable into itself with a
or 
input while moving. - Increases Bloodgauge(+43.2/300).
Fukyo is Nagoriyuki's compensation for dashing. Though, beware of using this too much because it increases your Bloodgauge. There are a few advantages when using it. Given it's same animation, you can trick the opponent to think you're either staying on the defense or engaging. Ex. You can bait a throw on recovery by going backwards.
Kamuriyuki / 冠雪
214H
- GGST Nagoriyuki Kamuriyuki.png
- A lunging attack that can knock down the opponent on hit
- Can cancel into any special on hit or block
- Increases Bloodgauge (+90/300)
This move may seem aggressive and looks rather unsafe if you were to use it on the opponent on block but given that both of you are set to neutral, you could actually attempt other moves such as a throw and other sorts of mind games on your opponent. This moves yields great reward on counterhit, giving it a good use when you feel an opponent is trying to press buttons during your pressure.
Shizuriyuki / 垂雪
623H
- GGST Nagoriyuki Shizuriyuki.png
This where the fun begins
- Anti-Air
- Second hit only comes out on hit or block.
- Increases Bloodgauge (+90/300)
- First hit can be cancelled into a special
The move you'll be using to extend your combos. The most notable one is 623H > 236K for Midscreen, and 623H(2) > 214H in the corner.
Bloodsucking Universe
623P
You ain't a vampire if you never done this before
- Command grab.
- Greatly reduces the Blood Gauge (-280.8/300) and recovers some health on successful grab.
- Removes all Blood Gauge increases/decreases before applying it's own drain effect.
- Blood Gauge drain lasts 3 seconds.
- With Blood Gauge(100-200,200-300), damage increases.
If this successfully hits, the Bloodgauge's progression is completely halted, no matter how fast it was previously filling (or emptying!). Useful for preventing Blood Rage at the last second.
Thanks to its speed, it's very easy to surprise the opponent with this after a few moves, such as a forward-moving Fukyo or the second hit of f.S.
Given its dramatic decrease on your Blood Gauge, you can act more freely to be more aggressive on your opponent without having to worry about the amount that you are filling when using Nagoriyuki's specials as the Blood Gauge is still decreasing within those few seconds you are pressuring your opponent.
Blood Rage
BLOOD HEAT
Who took half my life?
- Activation does not break the wall. If opponent is in wall splat, will simply knock them down.
- S and HS moves are heavily buffed.
- Grants access to a powerful Overdrive: Zansetsu.
- Disables special moves.
- Faultless defense(FD) can prevent from Activation as long as tension gauge last.
Activation happens when the gauge gets full, deactivation happens when you use Zansetsu or after enough time passes.
The activation has a hitbox that does no damage. If it hits, the opponent is launched far away and forced into a knockdown. if blocked, the opponent is put into a lengthy guard break animation and pushed back a fair distance if not in the corner. These can both help to make the recovery of the activation safer, but be aware that the activation is extremely punishable otherwise.
Overdrives
Wasureyuki / 忘れ雪
632146S
- GGST Nagoriyuki Wasureyuki.png
Normal Series: Consecutive Normal Slashes
Akatsuki Blitzkampf vibes
- Enters a cinematic if it hits up close.
- Reduces Blood Gauge (-194.4/300).
- Blood Gauge reduction applies over 6 seconds.
- If the opponent is too far but the move still hits, it will launch them into the air causing KD but will not continue it's consecutive slash. However, you can be able to extend after they fall to the ground (OTG). Such as using f.S.S.S.
Nagoriyuki does a swift, large slash that lifts the opponent up into a series of further slashes. The Blood Gauge will be temporarily paused during the cinematic but will continue increasing or decreasing after the cinematic ends. The Blood Gauge reduction will only be applied if the final blow of the cinematic lands.
Zansetsu / 残雪
632146H (while in Bloodrage)
In baseball this is called a hole in one
As if millions of Chipp players suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.
- Hits fullscreen.
- Deals MASSIVE damage raw, and still does plenty after a scaled combo.
- Exits Bloodrage mode on use(on blocked/on hit).
When you enter Bloodrage mode, Zansetsu is the only overdrive move you can use. It's generally used quickly as possible to avoid your health from drastically decreasing overtime due to Bloodrage. Using it raw can be risky as you have a lot of recovery frames after activating. Some characters can run up to you in time.
