I use the word creative lightly because the trump card was always whatever switch had just been finished by Kengo, but it felt a lot like an inexperienced, lucky superhero should. I know you mentioned Spiderman as a guy who has to make do with a really simple set of powers, and while that's true, if you look at a series like The Spectacular Spiderman, he would always win out of some lucky bout of creativity, rather than sheer force. That's how a lot of Fourze's fights felt to me, even if his first instinct was to go in with Rocket and Winch.

The difference is Spidey makes due with his webs. Using it as a literal all purpose tool. Despite making use of it every fight, his fights aren't always just "Web opponent, use webs to throw things"
Fourze, on the other hand, always uses the same general tactic. While his Switch choice is different, Gen never deviates from the "Run at him" strategy. Rocket, Claw, Chain Array, Elec, Giant Foot, Pen. It didn't matter. The only time he changed up is when he used one of his 4 distance weapons (And even then, he was still running at them with Fire).
