Unlike the game of its origin, Mega Man can move around with the shield intact; however, any attack or special input will cause him to throw the shield, so using the move is something of a commitment. An exception is made when Mega Man is holding an item (like his own [[Metal Blade]]), as he can still throw the item with the attack button as well as throw the Leaf Shield with the special button. Mega Man can also still [[shield]], [[grab]] and [[pummel]] while the Leaf Shield is active, and the leaves can deal extra damage to grabbed opponents.

Although its most obvious uses are for extra damage while grabbing and protecting from projectiles, Leaf Shield can also be useful for [[edgeguarding]]. If Mega Man stands at the ledge with Leaf Shield active and also uses his standard shield, he can safely threaten recovering opponents. Alternatively, he can [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_O3LCT7BDI&t=25 jump offstage] and try to [[gimp]] opponents with the leaves, possibly leading into a [[footstool jump]].

If Mega Man is [[Star KO]]'d or [[Screen KO]]'d with any variant of Leaf Shield activated, {{file link|LeafShieldStarKO.jpg|the shield will appear circling alongside him}}.
