Ninja Gaiden
The MechanicPure Micro
Built around the deflect, a tight parry window on every attack. Punishingly hard execution and little else.
Where it sits
How strongly Ninja Gaiden leans on each of the three dimensions.
micro
HighExecution is the heart of Ninja Gaiden: clean inputs, timing, and mechanical precision decide outcomes. What would break it is a tool that plays those inputs for you.
meso
LowThere is little to read in Ninja Gaiden: with no live opponent or hidden information to exploit, seeing what you shouldn't would not help.
macro
LowThere is little to optimize in Ninja Gaiden: a perfect coach or engine would have little to work with.
