Devil Blaster (デビルブラスター, Devil Blaster) is Kazuya's neutral special move.
Overview
Kazuya turns into Devil Kazuya for a brief moment, as he fires a small beam from his forehead in front of himself. The damage varies depending on how far the opponent is, having a piercing effect and covering a long distance. A single beam can go through a maximum of three opponents, with each consecutive opponent receiving less damage than the previous. During the move, the player can aim up or down, which has him fire diagonally up or diagonally down, causing a very small shockwave on the ground. Aiming downwards slightly decreases damage, but hits small or crouching opponents that would miss entirely when angled horizontally. If used in the air, he will fire diagonally downwards, but he can angle it horizontally or further downward.
Instructional quote
Move List | On the ground, unleash a powerful beam forward. In the air, the beam will angle downward. It has a long range that can hit up to three fighters. |
Origin
Devil Blaster — also called Inferno, Laser Beam, or Flying Killer Beam in the US and European versions of Tekken 2 — is an unblockable move introduced in Tekken 2 as Devil Kazuya's signature move. It is also performed by two characters, Devil Jin and Angel. It is notably one of the few projectile moves in the series. Kazuya can perform it through his Devil Transformation in Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Tekken 7.
In its debut game, the attack deals half of an opponent's health, making it extremely powerful. The only way to dodge it is by crouching. Its command input is 1+2 (Triangle and Square buttons on the Playstation controller). Devil Kazuya also has an air variant called Air Inferno, using the 3+4 (X and Circle buttons) input, which is referenced in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Later games nerfed the attack. In Tekken 7, Kazuya uses it as his final attack in his Rage Art.
