Couldn't someone do a move showcase against Mr Shakedown?
It can be pretty unclear what does and doesn't work on Mr Shakedown. The only thing I don't like about fighting him is I lose my patience using cheese tactics and I want to spice it up with another fighting style I'm not as familiar with. It's too easy to use slugger and auto 9mm at this point and I try to use him as a punching bag to try new things, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right sometimes.

there's not much showcase against mr shakedown, and wouldn't recommanded to try new things on him
he's pretty easy to predict and easy to dodge (unless ur in a close space)
Brawler is only good to pulling up very small combo like "Light+Heavy", u can also Counter Hook him (which its the same as the tiger drop), a few heat moves toos
Rush is great if u have enough upgrades, a heat move from the wall and the heat move when he attacks, this is also good way to create some distance
Beast is also good if u have the Bear hug or the quickstep grab, u can also grab him when he's on the ground (try not to grab him by the front, instead grab him by the legs)

Thug style is way too good, he has a parry, u can use most of the weapons heat move to deplete his health a bit
Breaker is not great on this unless u have the heat move when the enemy breaks ur guard
Slugger is spammable, and its easy to pull this off

Dragon style is also gud when he's about to get up, plenty of heat moves
Mad dog style is not great, but it has a great counter attack
thats all i know

Kiryu brawler or rush probably best against him, since all his counters near wall work, elbow crush or just destroy him with knuckles in rush.

If you have wild shirt equiped and have heat + stability passive he cant knock Kiryu in brawler, you can beat him in anything, but if you can't beat him in hand to hand combat dont even bother with coliseum.

You can also block everything but his charging grab, thats the only dangerous move he has, but he signals when hes about to do it.

Aren't his charge and grab very similar looking?

When hes about to do charging grab he does mini jump or smth like that, without it, its just charge that can be blocked. Obv, its best to just dodge everything, since it creates openings, but you know, sometimes you have to block.

Superalloy bat works realyl good on him, if i remember correctly, on both Kiryu and Majima, its heat action deals immense damage + hes knock out for very long time, and you can beat him with bat on the ground for almost full line of life.

For me easiest were rush + knuckles, its ultimate setup in zero, it allows you to do essentialy the same moves as rush + extra heat actions + extra damage + you can swap positions counter very easy with shakedown, maxed rush+knuckles against him feels like a total beatdown if you master rush counter and good at dodging.
