Can Shugoki can get something in return?

Okay, oni charge is nerfed and that might be for the good.

But let's look what Shugoki is left with in the end: 2 combos, headbash and the demon's embrace.

So really not much to surprise your opponent with. All his strikes are easily parriable and the demon's embrace drains your health if you miss so it's a pretty risky thing to do, not something you can rely on in a fight. Not in a 1 v 1 fight for sure.

So imo unless he is given something to buff him a little bit he's pretty much helpless in 1 v 1.
