It's just a katana skin, so it's no different from the other katanas in the game. However, the very idea that you can use a wooden training sword to defeat an opponent wielding a steel sword is empowering in a certain way.

* MightyGlacier: Judgement is the slowest-moving of the available characters, has more actual health than the other characters, and his medium attacks are about as fast as most other characters' heavy attacks. He further has a very dangerous heavy stance, which is slower than even that, but can typically cleave off slightly more than half of the opponent's health bar with no further preparation than just attacking.

* DanceBattler: both Ryoku and Pure make heavy use of acrobatics while attacking, with Ryoku outright performing Capoeira moves with an outstretched sword. Both are especially obnoxious to get a handle on the origins of their attacks, at first.
