![Poke from the Gods](/files/TIYKHREduXA4DknNxVYg)

* 5A is a long range, fast startup poke that is a <mark style="color:red;">**cornerstone**</mark> of Mitsuru's ground game. At its max range, it is safe to many DPs and simply dominates some matchups. However, it is one of the <mark style="color:red;">**slowest**</mark> 5As in the game and has noticeable recovery. Can be low profiled by almost every character, leaving Mitsuru vulnerable to a punish.
* No longer whiffs on <mark style="color:red;">**crouching**</mark> opponents but is now Chest attribute, so it will lose to almost every sweep or other moves with chest invulnerability.
