Set range
Start outside pressure range so the entry is intentional.
Style detail / Boxing
Gakuran Boxing style as the simple pressure baseline.
Boxing is useful to think about as a readable close-range pressure style. It is the style to test when you want cleaner short exchanges before chasing flashier names.
Quick answer
Keep Boxing longer if your real problem is still spacing or camera control.
Boxing can feel plain, but plain is useful for learning. Do not reroll away from it just because another style sounds rarer.
Guide context
Why Boxing is useful as a baseline
A style page should answer what the style helps you test. Boxing is useful because it makes short pressure easier to reason about. The supplied fighting styles showcase transcript gives Boxing a more specific role: it presents Boxing as an epic-style showcase entry with an M2-focused pressure identity, a perfect-block interaction, and an uppercut-like heavy attack. That does not make Boxing automatically best for every player. It means Boxing is a practical baseline for testing short entries, guard pressure, M2 timing, and whether your losses come from spacing or from misusing the pressure window.
Boxing test flow
Use one exchange
Apply one short pressure window, then decide whether the M2 or heavy timing is actually available.
Record the failure
Mark whether the problem was entry, pressure, perfect-block timing, defense, or reset.
Compare styles
Only compare Hakari or Muay Thai after Boxing's short pressure and M2 rhythm have been tested cleanly.
Boxing fit table
Use this page as a practical fit note, not an official stat sheet. The showcase subtitle helps identify what Boxing should be tested around.
| Question | Boxing read | Decision |
|---|---|---|
| Do you want simple pressure? | Boxing is easiest to judge when you want short, readable exchanges. | Test longer |
| Can you time M2 cleanly? | The showcase frames Boxing around an M2 pressure window, so wasted M2 timing weakens the style. | Practice timing |
| Can you perfect block? | The subtitle links perfect blocks to M2 cooldown value, which rewards defensive timing. | Practice defense |
| Do you recognize the heavy? | The embedded showcase presents Boxing's heavy as an uppercut-like hit. | Watch and compare |
| Are you losing to camera drift? | A different style will not fix camera control. | Hold rerolls |
| Do you panic after first contact? | Use Boxing to practice one action, pause, and reset. | Practice first |
| Does the rhythm still feel wrong after basics? | Then a reroll may be worth considering. | Compare styles |
Boxing evidence points
These checks make Boxing more than a one-line style label.
Beginner comfort
If Boxing makes the fight easier to read, that is valuable even without a rare-style label.
Pressure clarity
Short pressure windows reveal whether the player understands when to stop attacking or when to commit to M2.
Perfect-block evidence
The showcase subtitle links Boxing to perfect blocks reducing M2 cooldown, so defense timing matters before judging the style.
Reroll timing
A reroll away from Boxing makes sense only after controlled pressure still feels wrong.
Transcript notes
Boxing showcase transcript takeaways
The supplied auto-generated showcase subtitle gives Boxing more concrete identity. Because the transcript is player-generated and may reflect a specific game version, these notes are practical context rather than official stat documentation.
Showcase rarity context
The subtitle introduces Boxing in the epic section and mentions a 10% figure. This page does not treat that as official rarity, but it explains why players may view Boxing as a meaningful reroll target.
M2 pressure identity
The transcript describes Boxing with an untouchable or uninterruptible M2 window. For guide purposes, that means Boxing should be tested around short pressure and clean M2 timing.
Perfect reflex hook
The subtitle says perfect blocks can reduce M2 cooldown when it is already on cooldown. That makes Boxing more interesting for players who can defend first instead of mashing.
Uppercut heavy
The showcase describes the heavy attack visually as an uppercut. That gives readers a concrete cue for what to watch in the embedded video.
Not just a damage label
The useful Boxing question is whether the player can enter range, force pressure, defend cleanly, and reset. Exact damage and cooldown numbers are left unverified.

- Testing use: Use Boxing as a control test for spacing, short exchanges, perfect-block timing, and M2 commitment.
- Reroll note: Do not reroll just because another style looks more dramatic in a showcase; first test whether Boxing's pressure window fits you.
How to test Boxing
Run a small test before deciding that Boxing is weak or strong.
Short range check
Enter only when spacing is clear enough to see the exchange.
Pressure limit
Use one short pressure window instead of mashing through contact, then decide whether M2 is worth committing.
Defense note
After any bad trade, record whether the loss came from attack choice, failed perfect-block timing, or failed reset.
Heavy cue
Watch the uppercut-like heavy in the showcase so your test has a visual reference.
Reroll note
Reroll only if the style still fights your rhythm after controlled tests.
