I still think Shugoki needs some 'buffs' or at least some adjustments.
Some ideas for his hyperarmor:
-gb doesn't remove his armor
-double chains (usually second hit guarenteed) are interrupted (so second hit can be parried)
-since he gets 25% more damage when armor is down -> 25% less damage when armor is up
These ideas don't need to be in the game all at once but maybe at least one of them.
If you have some more ideas, please share.
Other adjustments:
Demon's Embrace:
-should restore stamina (I mean since Shaman can...)
Unblockable Heavy:
-should be a chain starter (he can throw a second heavy afterwards)
-should be a chain finisher (last heavy of a chain)
Headbutt:
-shouldn't be a chain finisher (he can throw a heavy afterwards)
