About Kenji

This highly skilled sushi chef has a wholesome life running his restaurant in Starr Park, but it feels like he's trying to hide something about his past... though his sushi tastes so good, nobody cares!

The standard Kenji setup is Studied The Blade plus Dashi Dash, the combination running in roughly 54.0% of builds. Kenji currently sits at A-tier, with its strongest results coming in Brawl Ball at a 53.2% win rate. Kenji preys on Dynamike, winning 59.3% of those encounters, but struggles into Bolt at just 34.5%. It pairs best with Nori. The Bolt matchup is severe enough that Kenji players should consider swapping when it appears on the enemy team. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Studied The Blade (54.0%) and Nigiri Nemesis (46.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode.
