Overview
Jin is a Major in the NOL and one of its elite commanding officers. While known for his cool and calm demeanor, he is also jealous, ambitious, and possessive with little care for others, treating them like they are mere obstacles. He displayed formidable combat prowess during the Ikaruga Civil War, which earned him his rank as Major and the title "Hero of Ikagura." When he heard that Ragna the Bloodedge was on the move, he quickly abandoned his post to hunt him down by himself.
Drive: Frostbite
Frostbite enables Jin to freeze his opponents, allowing for extended combos and unconventional reset opportunities.
Moves that can freeze have two additional values: Freeze Count and Freeze Duration
- Freeze Count: This value determines the number of times that an opponent may be frozen in a single combo. Under normal circumstances, an opponent can only be frozen once per combo using a normal Drive attack (5D, 2D, 6D, j.D). If you use another normal Drive attack while the opponent has already been frozen once before, the normal Drive attack will not freeze the opponent. However, EX Specials (214D, 236D, 623D, etc.) have very high Freeze Counts (10) effectively ignoring the Freeze Count limit. Furthermore, you may freeze the opponent more than once per combo with normal Drive attacks during Overdrive (see the Overdrive section for more details).
- Freeze Duration: This value determines how long the opponent will be frozen in place after being hit by a move that freezes. Freeze Duration is not affected by hitstun decay or bonus hitstun from a Fatal Counter starter; in other words, Freeze Duration is a constant value.
- If an opponent is crouching or airborne when frozen, they will be forced into a standing state.
- If an attack hits Jin while the opponent is frozen, the opponent will recover from the freeze effect immediately after hitstop.
- Opponents will automatically break free from the freeze effect if they are hit by a normal attack, if Jin goes over the Freeze Count limit, and after the Freeze Duration expires.
EX Specials
Jin has access to a set of special moves that consume 25% Heat, similar to Force Breaks from Guilty Gear AC, EX attacks from Street Fighter 4, and SB Skills from Persona 4 Arena.
- All of Jin's EX Specials freeze the opponent and ignore the Freeze Count limit.
- If Jin attempts an attack that requires 25% Heat without sufficient meter, the C version of the attack will occur instead (for example, inputting 623D with 24 Heat will cause Jin to perform 623C).
- All EX Specials trigger Heat cooldown for 180 frames upon use.
Overdrive: Frost End
Frost End is Jin's Overdrive. During Overdrive, all of Jin's sword normals and specials freeze the opponent; the Freeze Count limit for Jin's normal Drive attacks is altered; and Jin's EX specials gain additional properties (ground bounce, wall bounce, etc.).
- Sword normals (5C, 2C, 6C, j.C, j.2C) will now freeze the opponent and have a Freeze Count limit of 3.
- Normal Drives (5D, 2D, 6D, j.D) gain an extended Freeze Count limit of 3.
- Special moves will now freeze the opponent and have a Freeze Count limit of 5.
- Normal Drives (5D, 2D, 6D, j.D) gain more frame advantage and freeze for a longer period of time.
- EX Specials gain additional properties: 214D~C wall bounces, j.214D ground bounces, 22C~D deals more hits and additional damage, and 623D(2) wallbounces the opponent.
- EX Specials lose their 180F cooldown period.
You can only freeze the opponent up to 5 times in a single OD combo (not counting EX Specials). The specials' Freeze Count limit of 5 is shared with the sword normals/Drives' Freeze Count limit of 3, meaning that you can only freeze the opponent up to 3 times with sword normals and/or Drives and 2 more times with special attacks for a maximum of 5 freezes per OD combo (again, not including EX Specials, which ignore the Freeze Count limit).
Pros/Strengths
- Jin has tools to deal with just about any situation, from air-to-air battles to both short and long range ground battles.
- High average damage. Jin can hitconfirm pretty much everything and turn those hitconfirms into damaging combos, especially when he has 25 Heat.
- Has access to various reversal options, including two reversal DPs (DP C and DP D), which cover different situations, as well as a counter super (Yukikaze).
- One of the better Overdrives in terms of damage output.
- He can play an effective zoning game with his projectiles (Ice Blades) and his pokes, such as 5C, 5D, 2D, and j.C.
- Jin is a fairly straightforward character, making him perfect for newbies. His bread and butter combos are relatively simple in terms of execution.
- Very strong, safe pressure: Jin excels at placing opponents in frightening situations and can force such situations easily.
Cons/Weaknesses
- Jin is the standard "jack of all trades, master of none" character. Though he doesn't have any outstanding weaknesses, he doesn't excel at anything in particular, and will likely be strictly outperformed by a more specialized character in their strong areas.
- Jin's basic high/low mixup is weak without 25-50 Heat when he can use TK Hizangeki or RC 6A.
- While Jin's pressure is strong, his mixup is less "wild" than other characters'; consequently, Jin relies on punishing opponents for selecting their defensive options poorly, utilizing frame traps, etc., all of which require a solid understanding of pressure situations to properly utilize.
