Character Overview

Blade Master (Atomic Samurai) is the ultimate high-skill character in TSB. While one of the hardest to master, he rewards precision with the only move in the game that deals INFINITE damage - Atomic Slash is a guaranteed kill.

His two unique passives (Master of Kenjutsu and Scorching Blade) give him enhanced M1 attacks and knockback. Combined with his awakening moves like Sunrise and Sunset, Blade Master can eliminate any opponent in a single combo sequence.
