My main character is Hidan
and these are the reasons you should love hidan!
1: one of the best things about his tilt is after he draws them back in with the scythe, he doesn't have to kick them away! Time it right and you can xx (double jump) to the side. You can dance around opponents while they are immobilized by the drawing them back. After you jump around, you can throw scythe again for infinite scythe throws/draw ins, or simply use an ultimate jutsu
when your opponent has no subs, your tilt becomes the lead in to a automatic ultimate! Also sometimes the xx can work when the opponent subs out of your tilt, you jump around them and avoid their attack completely from behind.
2: Hidans down combo is the only one that "zooms in" on him, so if you see your opponent gaining or about to use a partner, use it and their partner will not function because of the down combo zooming in
plus the midair spin immobilizes them and your final downward hit can turn a 180 in midair to hit people behind you
3: Use his up combo completely for a chakra dash into a midair combo
his neutral combo is blah, and his over combo just humiliates your opponent lol. His midair combo is neat because the twirling he does in the air can suck in opponents that sub behind you sometimes! Causing them to be hit anyways
4: his attack range is insane! Since he has the scythe, his attacks can hit people from farther out, plus his attack speed is faster than that of other opponents. This doesn't seem like much, but you will soon realize that you have an offensive advantage to the majority of other characters. His movement speed isn't shabby either
5. Yes, hidans jutsu sucks because of vulnerability, but when someone goes into their awakening state (esp large characters like susanoo) it becomes god like. Since they cannot use ultimates, you have low risk usage. Since they cannot rely on partners to hit you, even better! They sub? To bad! The beat down of your jutsu continues. That on top of your partners kills any awakened person easily
Tips:
1: when in doubt, tilt. When people dash at you, guard, then when they bounce off, tilt.
2: hidan looks like a spinning top if ou spin him in circles, so great taunt
3: for supports, I find that I like a character that scares someone into guarding such as teen gaara, teen tenten, deidara and such so that (because hidan is close/mid range, you can use them from afar and use that time to dash at them. The second character is one that gets rid of multiple subs if they use them (ex. They sub out but get hit anyways) like killer bee, first kabuto, pain, or whoever the chubby rock guy is. Plus they launch into midair so you can chakra dash into air combo.
