Moveset

Move Name	Image	Assigned Key	Description
Magma Spirit Bomb			The user creates a Magma Spirit Bomb in their right hand before dashing forward. While the Magma Spirit Bomb is present, if the user runs into contact with a NPC, player, or training log, they will thrust their hand forward and deal damage. In the case of NPCs and players, the recipient of the attack will be briefly stunned and propelled away while spinning. Upon impact, it creates an explosion of wind which deals damage to nearby targets
Magma Style: Flow			The user expels a stream of magma in the form of balls from their mouth, burning enemies while slowing them down.
Lava Style: Burning Floor			The user creates a giant puddle of lava on the ground that deals burning damage to any enemies in it.
Lava Style: Lava Breath			The user shoots multiple balls of lava at the direction of the cursor, which create large lava spheres when they collide with enemies and burn them.
SL2 Senko Kunai			The user throws the SL2 Senko Kunai at the direction of the cursor like a projectile. Upon hitting a target, the kunai will deal damage and teleport the user behind the target, as well as being capable of homing in on them. Upon hitting a surface, the user will be teleported onto that surface, leaving behind an orange and yellow flash, similar to Minakaze's mode teleport. This ability uses 5,600 Stamina and has a cooldown of 14 seconds.
Dagai Bomb			The user throws a single kunai at the direction of their cursor, sticking to a target upon hitting them. After a few seconds, the paper will explode, dealing damage to the target it was stuck to.

After activating Minakaze's mode, the character's moveset will change accordingly:

Move Name	Image	Assigned Key	Description
Minakaze Style: Perfected Sunsengan Barrage			The user performs a series of teleports into the air, before conjuring a Sunsengan, then quickly teleporting to their cursor, which creates an Area of Effect explosion, or zone similar to the time stop effects of the other Senko bloodlines.
Minakaze Style: Kunai Raijin			The user summons four Senko Kunais on their back. Pressing the key again will throw the kunai, which, upon contact will bring up a Minakaze Marker, or Portal above the area where the kunai landed. If within range, the user can click on the marker to teleport to it. If the kunai hits a player, pressing the key again will instead teleport you to them. Keep in mind these kunai have a set range, and if you exit the range the markers will turn black and you will not be able to teleport to them until you re-enter the area. Only after all the kunai have been thrown will the move go into cooldown.
Minakaze Style: Sunsengan Barrage			The user prepares two Sunsengans, one on each hand. Clicking on an opponent (who is in range) while the move is active will teleport the user to their location, after which the user teleports around the opponent and hits them with the first Sunsengan, stunning them, then teleporting above the opponent's head and slamming the second Sunsengan down onto the opponent.
Minakaze Style: Sunsengan Overdrive			The user throws an vast amount of Senko Kunai at the/a target. If they hit the user will then proceed to teleport to each one while teleport-punching the target/opponent. At the final hit the user will conjure a Sunsengan and blast the opponent with it.
