Jujutsu Shenanigans: How to Play & Win Fights
A first-match guide to Jujutsu Shenanigans: what M1, skills 1–4, dash, block, special, sprint and awaken do, a simple fight plan, and the mistakes that lose exchanges.
Verified for version1.0
Jujutsu Shenanigans drops you into player fights with a small control set. That means your first few matches should be treated as practice rather than a score chase. This page covers the inputs, a simple fight plan and the mistakes that cost exchanges.
Your first match
Join a match and pick one thing to watch. Do not try to learn all four skills at once. For the first match, use M1 and block, and watch how other players approach. Note the distance at which they dash in, and what they do when you block.
The arena is part of the lesson. The page advertises destructible environments, so pay attention to which structures survive an exchange and which disappear. A route that works on a fresh map may not work after two minutes of fighting.
Input by input
| Input | How to use it |
|---|---|
| M1 | Your default melee attack; learn its reach before chasing combos |
| 1–4 | Four separate skills; pick one order and repeat it until it is automatic |
| Dash | Close a gap or leave one; the distance matters more than the speed |
| Block | Use it when you expect a swing, then punish the recovery |
| Special | A separate action from the four skills; test it before relying on it |
| Sprint | Gets you to the fight; do not sprint straight into a raised guard |
| Awaken | Its own input; enter it deliberately rather than as a panic button |
Treat the in-game controls screen as the source of truth, especially after an update.
A simple fight plan
Start at the edge of the fight and watch one opponent. Sprint in, then use dash to cover the last gap. Throw M1 to test their block. If they block, stop attacking and reset; if they swing, block and answer. Skills 1–4 are for the moments when you know the opponent cannot block in time.
Special and awaken are tempo tools. Use them when you have already forced a reaction, not when you are losing and hoping for a reset. Because destruction can remove cover, keep a second exit in mind.
Mistakes to avoid
- Emptying every skill at once. If all four whiff, you have nothing left while the opponent is still holding block.
- Ignoring block. Block is the cheapest way to survive a predictable attack.
- Dashing into a group. A dash that lands you between two opponents is not an engage.
- Treating awaken as a panic button. Use it as a planned state, not a reflex.
- Forgetting the arena changes. Cover that worked at the start may be gone later.
- Chasing a combo you cannot land. M1 reach and block timing win more fights than a long sequence.
Play one match with a single goal, then add the next input when the first feels automatic.
