One possibility that sprung to mind was altering the variables of combat, such as range.

He had powerful long-range capabilities that he could leverage. The ODA System allowed him to accurately target his opponents from great distances away. It was particularly effective against close-range fighters as he could use it to barricade them from reaching him.

Furthermore, he also had Transverse Resonance that allowed him to hit up to four times the power he normally could with a single attack, allowing him to inflict critical damage on his opponents.

However, he quickly dismissed this strategy against Kane. Kane was far too quick and would close the distance between them extremely rapidly. As an evasive maneuverer, this was right up his alley, and ultimately a futile effort.
