Strategy/Usage

This Uber has great DPS, especially against Black; despite this, she cannot be safely used against Black backliners like Le'noir due to her range. In addition, she also has great speed, damage and health so she can be a great aid in early-game.

Her knockback effect against Blacks is more useful than Date Masamune's, due to her fast attacks, guaranteed effect chance and damage amplifier. She can perma-knockback Razorback as long as she guarded by a decent amount of meatshields.

She is a part of the Hecks Angels Combo, which is great for beating easy stages really fast or cheesing hitbox glitch levels.

True Form

Immortal Kenshin is tougher and faster in both movement and attacks, with increased DPS as a result. These improvements change nearly nothing in how she is used, she is just better in every way and can stand up to more enemies and situations.

Talents

Health and damage are good to have, especially for a unit that relies on her stats like Kenshin, but nothing groundbreaking. Things get interesting with the Target Relic and Curse Immune talents, however.

Immortal Kenshin, as an anti-Relic, has a lot of value, becoming a near perfect counter to Oldhorn while also having good enough damage and attack rate to easily deal with any peons that may get in her way. Keep in mind that a speedy unit with a knockback ability may not always be beneficial to a fight, so, especially if dealing with the likes of M. Ost or Lowkey, it is best to think twice before using her.

Resist weaken is way too situational to be worth the NP, but can be of some use nevertheless, especially if this unit is among your go-to generalists.

Trivia

• Uesugi Kenshin is normally portrayed as male in some media, but they are also equally portrayed as female. This is largely due to the fact that in real life Uesugi's gender is often questioned, with valid arguments for both genders, thus leaving historians unsure of the true gender of the warlord.
  • In this game, it's a she. Although it is also debatable that Uesugi is a he as his/her Normal Form Description says "Transformed into a dragon through the cursed magic of the Nyanko Engine" Meaning that Uesugi Kenshin is the machine the girl is riding, not the cat girl herself. On the other hand his/her Easter variation does not portray the machine as a sentient being, but rather as an inanimate Easter egg basket machine.
• Kenshin once had a conflict with Takeda Shingen and Oda Nobunaga during the Sengoku Period.
• This was the first Sengoku Wargod to have a seasonal variant.
