Rin Kaenbyou

Rin Kaenbyou the Stage 5 boss of Touhou 11 Subterranean Animism enters Rivals of Aether. Rin is an extremely high APM mobile rushdown who boasts a heavy powerful punish game through a plethora of cancels but can struggle to get in due to limited range, a large idle hurtbox and no anti projectile options.


Nspecial: Summon Wisp. Nspecial performs a melee attack like a force palm and fires a projectile that summons a wisp when it hits a player or lifetime expires. Using Nspecial while the wisp is on the field will make it explode.

Uspecial: Teleport. This move works somewhat like Palutena Teleport in smash where you can ledge cancel the move, but Rin can also use an aerial immediately after teleporting at the cost of increased prat land time.

Dspecial: Float Shine. This move floats Rin and allows an omnidirectional fly for a brief period at once per airtime, however the move jump cancels on hit, if Rin lands fspecial or the close hit of nspecial she gains a stack that allows her to cancel any move into down special on hit.

Fspecial: Fspecial is an angleable mobility tool that cancels into a bounce on hit. This move is extremely high reward but very dangerous on whiff.

Gimmick: Wisp. Rin has a wall cling and can cling to the wisp by holding the special button out of Fspecial or wall jumping onto the wisp. While clinging to the wisp she can ride it, if she rides it for the full durration she will perform a special attack that is a very strong version of Zetterburn uspecial. She and opponents can also hit the wisp to make it detonate with the properties of the hitbox that hit it extending the range of moves used on it.

There's a lot of options with attack cancels into dspecial, dspecial jump cancels and can be canceled into out of jump squat, fspecial hit cancels, wall jump cancels off wisp, and uspecial cancels into aerials to extend strings and push punishes.
