General Strategy

<tabs plain> <tab name="BBCF"> Hibiki is a character who uses quick movements and illusions to toy with his opponent. Don't focus on repeating actions, and use a variety of moves to confuse the opponent. At mid-range, use Standing C, then connect into → + D. → + D connects into standing B with Revolver Action, so even if you're guarded you can get into close combat.

If the opponent is wary of Standing C into → + D, use Standing D instead. When Standing D hits, use middle attack Dual Wing Smash: Heaven and low attack Duel Wing Smash: Earth to shake up their guard. Once close to the opponent, use middle attack ← + B and low attack Crouching B or → + A to shake up their guard. After Standing B → additional B, you have an option between middle or low attacks like crouching B or ← + B.

If the opponent gains some distance, connect Soaring Kick → Piercing Feather. After Piercing Feather, attack with Jumping A or Jumping B to continue your assault. In addition, knowing when to mix in Soaring Slash: Revolution which requires a reversed direction guard, or a normal throw, will give your opponent some major trouble in defending themselves. If the opponent attacks from the air, use Crouching C to counter them. If you see the opponent jump while you're using Soaring Kick, it's recommended to use the C button to activate Pulverizing Fin.

When pressured by the opponent, the invulnerability from Double Wing Cyclone is reliable. Using a Rapid Cancel makes this an even more solid choice. </tab> </tabs>
