Tips

  • 0

    Armor King's f+1+4 (Shoulder Impact) is a very fast i13 mid but is -19 on block, making it one of the most punishable moves in his kit.

  • 0

    Armor King's db+3 (Foot Sweep) is a homing low that is -26 on block; be ready to launch him with ws2 if you block it.

  • 0

    Many of Armor King's powerful mids like f+2 (-11) and df+2 (-12) are punishable; use your i10 or i12 punishers to keep him honest.

  • 0

    Armor King's b+1,2 string is -12 on block; ensure you punish the second hit to prevent him from freely transitioning into his BAD stance.

  • 0

    Watch out for Armor King's uf+4 (Rising Toe Kick); it is a i15 launcher but is -13 on block, which you can punish with your 1,1,1 Heat Engager.

  • 0

    Armor King's Dark Stampede (3,4,1) is -13 on block; don't let him get away with the shoulder finisher without a proper punish.

  • 0

    Use Law's i10 jabs (1 or 2) to interrupt Armor King's slower command throws like Tombstone (db,n,f+2+4) which has an i11 startup.

  • 0

    Armor King's Frankensteiner (df+3+4) is a high-damage throw-hit hybrid that is -11 on block; if he whiffs the throw, he is extremely vulnerable.
