Jujutsu Shenanigans Controls Guide

Card No. 06·12854 · Updated · Standard formula, shown below

This guide explains the controls for Jujutsu Shenanigans, a Roblox fighting game inspired by the anime Jujutsu Kaisen. You will learn the default keyboard and mouse bindings for movement, combat, and special moves, plus how to change them and troubleshoot common control issues.

Default Controls Overview

In Jujutsu Shenanigans, you control your character with the standard Roblox scheme, but combat adds several unique actions. The default controls are:

  • WASD – Move your character
  • Space – Jump / double jump
  • Left Mouse Button (LMB) – Basic attack combo
  • Right Mouse Button (RMB) – Dash / dodge
  • Q – Use a special move (varies by character)
  • E – Use a different special move
  • R – Use a third special move
  • F – Use a fourth special move (often a finisher)
  • Shift – Sprint (hold)
  • C – Crouch
  • Tab – Open the leaderboard / stats
  • M – Open the game menu (if available)

These are the defaults, but the game lets you rebind most actions in the settings menu. The exact moves tied to Q, E, R, and F depend on the character you choose (e.g., Yuji, Gojo, Megumi, etc.).

How to Change Controls

If the default layout feels awkward, you can customize it:

  1. Press Esc to open the game menu.
  2. Click the Settings (gear icon) tab.
  3. Look for a Controls or Keybinds section.
  4. Click on the action you want to change (e.g., “Dash�).
  5. Press the new key on your keyboard.
  6. Click Save or simply close the menu – changes usually apply instantly.

Note that some actions, like basic attacks, are tied to mouse buttons and may not be rebindable. Also, the game may not allow binding to certain keys (like Esc or Enter) to avoid conflicts.

Combat Moves and Combos

Understanding the controls is only half the battle. Each character has a unique set of moves, but the general combat flow is:

  • Basic attacks (LMB) – A 3-4 hit combo that deals damage and can be chained.
  • Dash (RMB) – A quick dodge that gives you invincibility frames; use it to avoid attacks or close distance.
  • Special moves (Q, E, R, F) – These have cooldowns and often require a resource like “Cursed Energy.â€�
  • Ultimate (if available) – Some characters have an ultimate ability that activates with a specific key (often G or V) when your meter is full.

For example, Yuji’s moves include a dash punch (Q), a kick (E), a black flash (R), and a final combo (F). Gojo has teleportation and a domain expansion (F). Always check the in-game move list for your character to see what each button does.

Common Control Problems and Fixes

Players often encounter issues with controls. Here are some typical problems and solutions:

  • Keys not responding – Make sure the game window is focused. Press Esc and click back into the game. Also check if you have a keyboard layout that changes key output (e.g., AZERTY).
  • Mouse buttons not working – Some gaming mice have extra buttons that Roblox doesn’t recognize by default. Try using a standard two-button mouse.
  • Controls reset after update – The game may reset keybinds after a patch. You’ll need to rebind them in settings.
  • Can’t dash or use moves – This might be a cooldown issue, not a control issue. Watch your move cooldown timers and Cursed Energy bar.
  • Stuck in a menu – Press Esc to close any open menu. If that doesn’t work, try pressing Tab or M.

Mobile and Console Controls

If you play on a phone or tablet, the controls are touch-based: a virtual joystick on the left and action buttons on the right. You can’t rebind these, but you can adjust the button size and opacity in the settings. On consoles (Xbox, PlayStation), the controls are mapped to the controller’s buttons – for example, the right trigger is usually attack, the face buttons are special moves, and the bumpers are dash and jump. The game will show the correct button prompts on screen.

Tips for Better Control Usage

  • Practice in the training area – Use the practice mode to learn each move’s timing and range without pressure.
  • Rebind to your strengths – If you have trouble reaching the number keys, move special moves to keys like Z, X, C, and V.
  • Use a wired mouse – For competitive play, a wired mouse reduces input lag.
  • Keep your hands relaxed – Tensing up slows reaction time; keep your fingers loose on WASD and the mouse.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use the domain expansion?

Domain expansions are character-specific ultimate moves. You need to fill your ultimate meter (usually by dealing or taking damage) and then press the designated key (often F or G). The key is shown on your screen when the meter is full.

Why can’t I rebind my dash to a mouse button?

Roblox’s input system only supports left and right mouse buttons for actions. Extra mouse buttons (like side buttons) are not recognized by the game engine, so you must use a keyboard key.

What does “Cursed Energy� do?

Cursed Energy is the resource used for special moves. It regenerates over time and by landing basic attacks. Some moves consume more energy than others, so manage it carefully.

Can I play with a controller on PC?

Yes, Roblox supports controllers on PC. Plug in a controller and the game should automatically switch to controller prompts. You can also mix keyboard and controller inputs, but it’s usually better to stick to one.

My controls are stuck on AZERTY – how do I fix it?

If you have a French AZERTY keyboard, the WASD keys are in different positions. You can either change your keyboard layout to QWERTY in your system settings or rebind the movement keys to ZQSD in the game’s settings.
