Description
Kiku Braeburn punches her way in!

KIku is a rushdown character that's specialized in fighting opponents up close with her many boxing techniques. How you play as her is completely up to you!



Neutral Special - Cider Stride

A move that looks like a dempsey roll. The move can be either tapped or held. Doing so will allow Kiku to weave in place. If you input a direction while weaving, she’ll weave dash instead. This move is also cancellable by an attack. It should also be noted that during the dash, you can cancel it into any other special!

- This move is invulnerable to projectiles, making it easy to get in against zoners.
- This move can be used to mix up opponents!
- If used in the air, you can gravity cancel the move, which will allow you to use a grounded normal instead!

Forward Special - Sweet Haymaker

A controllable momentum based attack. Similar to Little Mac’s Jolt Haymaker!

Down Special - Slipstream Strike

A move that allows Kiku to take a big step back which also has strike invulnerability. Pressing down special again will make her throw a powerful one inch body blow punch. The initial step can be jump, parry, or attack canceled.

Down Special (Air) - Blender Bolt

When down special is used in the air, Kiku spirals down to the ground, allowing for an easy setup when you hit an opponent on the ground. Be careful to use it off stage though!

Up Special - Blossom Barrage

A move similar in style to Mii Brawler Piston Punch from SSB4. Has ok recovery and can be used for easy ladder KOs.

@AaadyB Oh! I actually didn't think about giving Sandbert and Guadua win quotes, probably should. As for what characters have them already, here's a slightly outdated list containing em! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ax6QHoRJN9AgHxIPK0JwdCeZ0dO-XOIIHw7wjsYU0bA

Do you plan on adding victory quotes for Sandbert and Guadua?
Also, what characters have unique victory quotes currently?

She has a very smart AI, does a lot of damage, she took me from 0-60 in a "basic" combo, but I still like the mod even though I get angry trying to beat her on the highest difficulty.

@ReyNebulosa, Thank you for trying out Kiku! To answer your question, I'm not exactly certain whether or not I'd include a Final Smash on my characters as I'd like to use that time to create other characters instead. HOWEVER, if I'm feelin up for it, it is something I could probably do as a surprise.

I love the mod!!!, have you thought about putting a Final Smash with the "Final Smash Buddy" mod?, and so that people who don't have the mod can put it as an abyss mode rune

I love playing with her, she's super fun to fight with easily one of my favorite workshop characters

@FulgurHalcyon, yeah in the latest patch I made an oopsie (i was hoping it was only on my end but seems not lol), it'll be fixed in the next update

Why are all of Kiku's hitboxes invisible in practice mode?

Kiku v1.13 is live! Thanks for y'all's patience!

P.S. Kiku did not win RCS, but there were quite the number of players who played her!

appreciate the heads up, hoping a kiku wins RCS!
