This page describes Setsuka's Battle Style in each of the games in which she appeared.

Soulcalibur III[]

Setsuka's battle style is centered around lightning fast and damaging attacks. She was already recognized as one of the fastest characters by the time she debuted in SC3. Her combos are fast and deal impressive damage to the point that it can reduce almost half of the opponent's life bar. Her counter hits are impressive too and it is difficult for an opponent to recover. Although she has impressive speed and power, some of her her moves and combos are difficult to perform and her standalone attacks are weak without an immediate follow-up.

Soulcalibur III: Arcade Edition[]

It's the same in Soulcalibur III.

Soulcalibur IV[]

There are some changes in Setsuka's battle style in SCIV. Some of her useless attacks from Soul Calibur III have been changed into more useful moves, an example is her A+K move being changed to Ring of Heaven, which can be utilized better in combos. She was criticized in this game due to her moves being harder to perform than in SC3, such as her two signature moves, Sakura Fury Combo and Silver Moon combo Also, because of the new damage system, her deadly combos became weaker and her standalone attacks still only did minimal damage. With that said, her speed increases in this game and her ability to perform faster combos make up for her weaknesses.

Soulcalibur V[]

Patroklos22

Patroklos utilizing the style he learned while training under Setsuka (vs. Z.W.E.I.).

Setsuka does not appear in this game. However, her student, α Patroklos, wields a style similar to her. Unlike Setsuka, α Patroklos does not use an umbrella and the sword's scabbard replaces it thus, replacing umbrella-based attacks with his own moves. According to the story mode this is Patroklos' true fighting style, and he used it prior to taking up a shield in honor of his mother. However, when he was 15, Patroklos won his first fighting tournament event during which his father Rothion was still alive and before Patroklos met Setsuka. This implies he probably used another fighting style (probably the sword and shield) before learning Setsuka's style. Overall, α Patroklos's fighting style can throw off some players who are not familiar with Setsuka's fighting style.
