Strategy

Jubei excels in close-combat rush downs. His Distortion Drive, "Immovable Object: Lotus" enhances his rush down abilites even further. While Jubei is great at rushing down opponents, his standing knock back is the same as his crouching knock back, which is a large weak point. He is prone to massive damage combos, so beware.
When at mid-range with the opponent, use the crouching B, which has good range. Even if the opponent blocks crouching B, Jubei will have frame advantage and can move first. Lock down your opponent in a crouching block, then dash in to close the gap and get in for a mix-up.
If Jubei jumps while running, he will fly in a low trajectory. This makes his double jump C or ↓ + C, which hits behinds opponents, extremely effective. When closing the distance with the opponent, use the overhead, Form TWO: Demon Fox (↓↙← + B) and low Form ONE: Shadow Wolf (↓↘→ + B) to mix-up. Likewise, while dashing, if Jubei jumps and immediately attacks with Jump A, he will connect with a crouching opponent, making it an overhead mix-up.
With 50% Heat Gauge, Jubei should use Immovable Object: Lotus as soon as possible. Jubei will have the frame advantage by canceling into Immovable Object: Lotus from special attacks. After Immovable Object: Lotus, Fissuring Slash's behavior will change, opening up several possibilities of attack. Mix up into Form ONE or Form TWO, or catch the opponent off guard with a throw to break their guard.
Against opponent trying to attack you from the air, counter with crouching C. If the opponent gets in really close, use Counter Assault or backsteps to escape to safety. Note, if you're able to evade your opponent's attack with a backstep, you should immediately dash (→ during backstep) into a standing A to immediately go from defense to offence.^[1]
