Tips
- 0
King's Atlas Hammer (d+1+2) is extremely unsafe at -24 on block; always use a full launcher like Wind God Fist (WGS.2) to punish it.
- 0
Be careful with your high pokes; King can use Beast Step (f,n,d,df) to duck highs and access powerful while standing moves.
- 0
King's df+1 is only -1 on block; do not automatically assume it is your turn, as he can follow up with the -10 Elbow Sting (df+1,2).
- 0
Use Electric Wind God Fist (f,n,d,df:2) to keep King at bay, as it is +5 on block and discourages him from using slow throws.
- 0
King's low Stagger Kicks (d+3+4) are -25 on block; block the first hit and use a delayed hopkick or your strongest launcher.
- 0
King's Rolling Sobat (f+4) is a homing mid that is -9 on block; while safe, it ends his pressure and returns the turn to you.
- 0
If King uses the Muscle Armor (db+1+2) power crush, be ready to block the Emerald Elbow follow-up which is -9 and safe, but ends his momentum.
