Tips

  • 0

    Reina's Flash Punch Combo (1,1,2) is extremely punishable at -17 on block; ensure you launch her for a full combo every time she finishes the string.

  • 0

    When Reina enters Sentai (SEN) stance, her SEN.3 is a homing high that is +1 on block; stay alert for the Heat Engager properties and avoid ducking unless you read a low.

  • 0

    Reina's f,F+2 is -9 on block, making it safe, but her transition into Sentai (SEN) can be interrupted if she doesn't follow up immediately.

  • 0

    Use Armor King's f+2,1 as a i15 punisher for Reina's unsafe mids like df+2 (-12) or uf+2 (-12) to activate Heat and gain momentum.

  • 0

    Reina's Hell Axle (WRA.3,4) is +6 on block and jails; do not attempt to press buttons after blocking the first hit of this string.

  • 0

    If Reina uses her low sweep db+2, it is -16 on block, allowing Armor King to punish heavily with ws1 or a delayed hopkick.

  • 0

    Reina's Wind God Step (WGS) options like WGS.DF+4 are -23 on block, providing a massive opening for Armor King's most powerful punishes.
