Analysis/Strategy[]

Using this Borg[]

Normal ninja's primary strength is his agility and his ability to continuously dash in the air. Normal ninja's projectiles are very useful at chipping away borgs' HP at a range and his quick attacks are good for skirmishing. A very useful borg considering how long he can stay on the field for such a low cost, but it also takes a long time to kill anything.

Shuriken are not very damaging at all, however the sheer quantity that Normal Ninja can unleash make the projectiles a fine tool to use for keeping pressure on distant opponents. If they don't keep moving, they'll take chip damage. Make 'em dance!

Melee is where Normal Ninja's main source of damage lies. Shinobi Gatana is fairly short range relative to many other borgs' melee attacks, but is also quick and very damaging. From the air, Normal Ninja is able to pull off a plunging attack if positioned within a small area above the opponent. This can be hard to land due to the required positioning and poor tracking, but does quite a lot of damage if it connects, even compared to his basic melee swings.

Last but not least, Shinobi Bomb can be hard to score a direct hit with due to it's arc, but is a great tool for knockback due to how cheap it is resource-wise. A good combo is to drop a bomb from the air and then melee the opponent when they are knocked upwards. Because the enemy will be unable to move for a second or two after being knocked into the air, this creates a prime opening to use Normal Ninja's plunging attack.

Fighting this Borg[]

One of the best things to keep in mind while fighting normal ninja is that the ninjas are short range skirmish style borgs. While Normal Ninja's shuriken do count as projectiles and their bombs are powerful blowback weapons, both projectiles are slow moving and, in the case of his shuriken, lose their limited homing and tracking attributes. Borgs with fast projectiles will rip through normal ninja's low HP and any borg with a medium to long range sword or knife will out prioritize normal ninja and allow you to make physical contact at a superior range rendering his skirmishing abilities useless.

How to Get this Borg[]

  • There is one Normal Ninja in the box at the beginning of the game.
  • "Training with Kakeru" at Kakeru's Home is a good place to find more.
  • Many of the various "Defeat the Death Force Unit" battles can contain rare forms of Normal Ninja.
  • 20th Force Glitch: The force sequence for Normal Ninja is empty (his ID is 0), meaning that you skip that part of the glitch.
