Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 3: Shikamaru

Shikamaru fights both at an average and close distance.

All his jutsus are fast, but they are useless against distant enemies. This may be a problem, because the attacks do not follow your opponent, but instead fly straight toward the enemy's position at the moment of casting.

While playing as this character, it is important to use awakening as often as possible. This mode can be entered only when Shikamaru loses some health. This changes his ninjutsu, increasing its range and surface, thus becoming harder to avoid. It also increases the character's speed and other statistics.

Counter-attack is also a useful ability. It works at a short range and throws an opponent at the other side of the arena. Unfortunately, Shikamaru has one serious weakness, which is his slowness.

With his Tilting Attack Shikamaru uses his own shadow to grab an enemy, punch him in the face and knock him back.
