(To put it bluntly, there is a lot of bloat in this section which could be in the attributes (some of which are already repeats). There's also far too many strong descriptions. I intend to trim this and move things down to attributes when I have time, but there's so much.)

Kazuya ranks 11th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him at the top of the A+ tier. Kazuya possesses various strengths, the most significant being his large moveset, having more than double the moves of a usual fighter thanks to his diagonal inputs. He has an excellent grounded combo game courtesy of moves such as [[Electric Wind God Fist]], down throw, uncrouching attack and down-back tilt, all of which allow him to keep opponents locked in vulnerable animations for long periods. He also has high overall damage (which can be further boosted when under the effects of his character-specific [[Rage (Kazuya)|Rage]] buff at 100%) and a wide array of powerful finishers fitting his heavyweight status, and most of them are able to be combo'd into. Overall, this grants him reilable [[zero-to-death]] combo potential once his inputs are mastered. His moveset has significant utility in other areas: [[Crouch Dash]] grants a safe approach option, most of his attacks have [[intangibility]] on parts of his body, [[passive armor]] lets him shrug off weak attacks, and he gains [[armor]] his smash attacks. Kazuya's special moves carry good utility as well, with [[Devil Blaster]] being effective for edgeguarding, [[Devil Fist]] granting a burst option and combo starter, [[Devil Wings]] being a powerful [[out of shield]] option and good vertical [[recovery]] that does not cause [[helpless]]ness, and [[Heaven's Door]] allowing him to punish shielding opponents, which is further boosted under the effects of Rage (which grants it [[super armor]] and powerful KO potential).

His moveset has significant utility in other areas: [[Crouch Dash]] grants a safe approach option, most of his attacks have [[intangibility]] on parts of his body, [[passive armor]] lets him shrug off very weak attacks, and he gains [[armor]] during his smash attacks. Kazuya's special moves carry good utility as well, with [[Devil Blaster]] being effective for edgeguarding, [[Devil Fist]] granting a burst option and combo starter, [[Devil Wings]] being a powerful [[out of shield]] option and good vertical [[recovery]] that does not cause [[helpless]]ness, and [[Heaven's Door]] allowing him to punish shielding opponents, which is further boosted under the effects of Rage (which grants it [[super armor]] and powerful KO potential).
Furthermore, Kazuya has excellent staying power due to his heavy weight (being the 8th heaviest) and surprisingly good recovery for a heavyweight courtesy of his high [[double jump]] and Devil Wings, allowing him to make use of Rage even more. Overall, this makes Kazuya very dominant on the ground.
