How To Play Locust Guy In Roblox’s Jujutsu Shenanigans

Jujutsu Shenanigans is one of the most popular fighting games on Roblox, inspired by the hit anime Jujutsu Kaisen. This fighting game offers innovative mechanics and unique characters, making it an exciting experience for both fighting game fans and those who love the anime it is based on.

In this game, you can destroy buildings, execute combos, and battle other players while testing different characters that reference various fighters from the anime. Locust Guy, also known as “KO Guy”, is the ninth character added to the game’s universe, and is perfect for players who prefer fast aerial combos, high mobility, and precise execution.

Character Description

Locust Guy has lower base health compared to other characters, with a total of 85 HP, and his abilities come with a long cooldown. Because of this, he can be difficult to use effectively if the player doesn’t fully understand his skills and advantages.

However, despite his low health and cooldown limitations, Locust Guy is a very strong character, capable of dealing high damage through his abilities and making use of his excellent mobility, which combines dashes with his unique flight ability.

Visually, Locust Guy has a striking appearance. Equipping this character modifies your avatar’s skin, adding two extra arms for a total of four, two pairs of insect wings on the back, and antennae. This distinctive look makes it easy to identify when a player has selected Locust Guy.

Main Abilities Of Locust Guy

Locust Guy’s skills are powerful and unique, introducing mechanics that enhance mobility and strong offensive capabilities. Despite having lower-than-average health, his abilities give him several advantages, including a ranged attack that reduces the opponent’s damaged output.

Clever

Clever is a series of rapid punches directed at the opponent with a short wind-up animation. The attack deals a total of 14 damage and has a 20-second cooldown. However, it can be blocked or interrupted, making it essential to use it at the right moment.

Black Mocus

Black Mocus is a ranged attack where Locust Guy spits a venomous projectile that reduces the opponent’s damage output by 15 percent for ten seconds. This attack deals eight damage and has a 30-second cooldown. Like Clever, it can be blocked or interrupted, so using it strategically is key to weakening enemies before engaging in close combat.

Crushing Jaws

Crushing Jaws is a multistep attack that starts with three lunging bites. If the third bite connects, Locust Guy will grab the opponent, dragging them forward in the direction the player’s character is facing (not the camera). He then slams them onto the ground, launching them into the air. This attack deals a total of 19 damage and has a 15-second cooldown.

Wing Throw

Wing Throw is a grappling move where Locust Guy extends his arm to grab the opponent, then dashes forward and throws them in the direction the camera is facing.

If you tilt the camera upwards during the throw, the opponent will be launched high into the air, setting up potential follow-up attacks.

Flight

Locust Guy’s special ability is Flight, allowing him to move in the direction of the camera. Unlike the basic dash, this flight ability enables vertical movement, allowing him to gain altitude.

If Flight is directed towards an opponent in a ragdoll state midair, Locust Guy will accelerate towards them, closing the distance significantly. Upon reaching the target, there will be a brief aerial freeze of less than half a second, during which Locust Guy can perform up to three basic attacks or initiate Wing Throw.

This ability has a cooldown of ten seconds.

During this aerial interaction, Crushing Jaws and Clever cannot be used, as both players will begin to descend before the moves can be executed properly.

Awakening – Directed Poison

Unlike other characters, Locust Guy does not gain new abilities when activating Awakening. Instead, he performs a sting attack using his stinger.

When Awakening is activated, a stinger extends from Locust Guy’s back, launching forward in the direction of the camera. This attack injects venom into any opponent it hits, dealing ten damage per tick over time, up to a total of 80 damage.

If multiple players are hit by the attack, the total damage is divided equally among them.

Locust Guy Main Combo

Locust Guy’s main combo is one of the most powerful in Jujutsu Shenanigans, featuring the only aerial movement sequence in the game. When executed correctly, this combo deals around 60 percent of the opponent’s total health, making it a highly effective and visually impressive combination of attacks and mobility.

Main Combo Sequence:

1. Basic Attack x2
2. Clever
3. Crushing Jaws
4. Special Ability – Flight
5. (Optional) Basic Attack x2
6. Wing Throw
7. Black Mocus

Tips For Executing The Combo

• Crushing Jaws is the key initiator of the aerial movement in this combo. However, since the first two bites can be dodged, it is critical to land the third bite successfully. Without it, the aerial sequence won’t activate, and the opponent may escape.
• When using Flight, predicting the opponent’s trajectory is crucial. The sooner you anticipate where they will land in their ragdoll state, the higher the altitude Locust Guy will reach, maximizing the impact when the opponent crashes back down.
• Optional basic attacks: After executing Flight correctly, two additional basic attacks in the air can be performed before activating Wing Throw. While it is technically possible to land three basic aerial attacks, the third strike is a downward smash, which can cause an early descent, disrupting the combo. For this reason, the extra basic attacks are considered optional.

Game Strategy

Locust Guy is a versatile and powerful character, but he is vulnerable against opponents with strong long-range abilities. His high cooldown and lack of an Awakening make him an easy target for ranged attacks such as Piercing Blood and Supernova from Blood Manipulator, Nue and Divine Dog from Ten Shadows, Reversal Red from Honored One, and Dismantle and Cleave from Vessel.

His long cooldown can also make Locust Guy overly reliant on basic attacks. If he misses key abilities that initiate his combo, such as the third hit of Crushing Jaws, he can be left vulnerable to enemy attacks.

To play him effectively, it is essential to take advantage of his high mobility by using his dash and Flight ability to reposition strategically. Wait for your cooldown to reset, use Black Mocus correctly to weaken enemy attacks, and land your combos with precision to avoid unnecessary risks.

Tips

• Always use Shift Lock: This will allow you to control aerial combos more easily, as it aligns attacks based on the camera angle rather than the character’s movement. This helps maintain a smooth succession of hits.
• Avoid fighting multiple opponents at once: Locust Guy excels in one-on-one combat, but his damage output is significantly reduced in group fights. This is especially true for his Awakening and individual combos, which may distribute damage inefficiently among multiple enemies.
• Be cautious against ranged opponents and blocking mechanics: The best way to play Locust Guy is to minimize the damage taken from distance attacks by using Black Mocus to weaken opponents and playing aggressively with long combo sequences that are difficult to counter.
