Biography[ | ]
Never shying away from attention and never passing up an opportunity to make himself look better, Duu Shen loves being the best. Ultra competitive and boisterous, Duu Shen's lifestyle had caused his family grief. To minimize conflict, they provided him with the resources he needs and a luxurious apartment away from his family. As a star player on the basketball team and street-fighting extraordinaire, Duu Shen was both idolized and feared in Hazelroad High.
Faced with the easy decision to acquire more notoriety and influence, Duu Shen's decision to become a Wishmere was an easy one. He emerged out of the Energies as a martial artist with pyrokinesis. Though ecstatic with his transformation, he could not help but notice that his friends were vastly different and more empowered than himself.
Duu Shen does not have a part-time job. He does visit his family every few weeks, however.
Gameplay Overview[ | ]
Duu Shen is an offensive juggernaut that is all about rushdown. Duu Shen is best played in the face of an opponent and never letting up. With lightning quick pokes and multiple moves with optional / secondary attacks, Duu Shen can constantly keep his opponent guessing while relying on his close-ranged pressure. He is great at frustrating opponents and putting their backs against the corner. With only a faithful anti-air (u + AB) as his defensive tool, Duu Shen struggles in range, having the worst ranged attacks in the game.

Edge: Rising Pressure[ | ]
Rising Pressure quickly propels Duu Shen forwards in a dash. It can be performed while pressing or holding any direction, while on ground or in air, effectively making it an 8-way dash. Rising Pressure can also be cancelled into from any attack that makes contact with an opponent, and cancelled out of while in dash animation. This makes Rising Pressure essentially a flexible tool: a combo extender, a way to cancel recovery or to keep pressure on the opponent.

Pros:[ | ]
- Edge is extremely flexible: insane additional pressure, added movement or combo extender
- Lots of options for mixups: fakeouts, delayed attacks and two-part attacks provide a change of pace of attack
- Good corner carry, putting the opponent's back to a wall is where Duu Shen excels
- Fantastic damage on combos and good combo starters (d + H, u + H, j.u + AB, Super Art)
- Fast normal attacks, both on ground and in air
Cons:[ | ]
- Terrible range on most attacks; normals and majority of Abilities, making him rely on extremely close ranged skirmishes
- Outside of his u + H, has no defensive tools and normals
- Reliant on rushdown and changing the pace to avoid fighting telegraphed
- Most Abilities are very situational, relying on good reads
