Gaara | Selected characters - hints Naruto Shippuden: UNS 3 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Gaara is a long distance fighter. Note that ranged jutsu always stops jutsus performed at close quarters.

One of Gaara's forms can enter awakening mode right from the start, however, in that case he is losing his chakra. The other one can enter the mode only when his health drops to a certain level. When active, the awakening mode offers two extra ranged abilities. These are: casting spears at a distant enemy and increasing the range of standard attacks, which is a big advantage.

His ninjutsu is a ranged sand attack. Although this has an average speed, it can reach even the far end of the arena. This is perfect for keeping an opponent at bay.

The Ultimate has an average range, so this should be used to outsmart the opponent. When he is charging at you from the far end of the arena, quickly use the attack so the enemy crashed into the projectile.

A standard hand to hand combo will push your opponent back to the far end of the map. Do your best to keep him there.
