| “ | Banished from the Dynasty, rejected by the Heralds and imprisoned by the Legion - but pain only makes him stronger. Xiang Tzu is a mountain of muscle and a master of three martial styles. After he learned about the shadow tournament, he broke the wall of the Legion's most guarded prison and broke free. He will become the champion of this world, unless of course he burns it in the flame of his rage first. | ” |
Xiang Tzu is one of the playable characters in Shadow Fight 4: Arena. All for one and loyal to none, Xiang Tzu has responded to his rejection from all three factions by taking their martial arts into his own, combining agility, precision, and strength into a reckless and brutal style. Now that he has mastered a moveset of his own, he now seeks to take out his anger on his opponents in the Shadow Tournament.

Strategy[]
| “ | Remember, Xiang Tzu's Rampage should take your opponent by surprise, not you! For example, a series of blocked attacks can instantly turn into a broken block (and nose) of your opponent. The key to mastering Xiang Tzu's mad aggression is timing! | ” |
The Mad Master forgoes shadow energy in favor of simply using pure Rage. When he gets angry enough, Xiang Tzu enters into a frenzied block-breaking Rampage, where his attacks not only break through blocks but also gain power and range, making them much harder to avoid. Even if he gets hurt, should he counter fast enough, his Adrenaline will kick in and help to restore some of his lost health.
While Xiang Tzu is at his most dangerous while Rampaging, he's no slouch in sober combat. Each of Xiang Tzu's moves are fast on startup, and deal decent damage even without his Rage.
Strengths[]
Xiang Tzu is High Attacking character.
Weaknesses[]
While Xiang Tzu's Rampages are moments where he shines the most in a given fight, it could also be the moment where he falls flat on his face. If a smart opponent is able to achieve a good distance from Xiang Tzu before his Rampage activates, it's possible they can prepare and react to him; a very disadvantageous state for Xiang Tzu, given the increased damage that can be done against him in this state!
