Introduction

Kim is mainly a rushdown character. In neutral Kim has access to some solid pokes to defend his space and a divekick to help him get in. He has a flash kick that works as a nice anti air and as a invul reversal. Once Kim is in he has access to a overhead, some nice lows, a good crossup and his stomp cancel. The stomp cancel is a glitch that allows him to do strong pressure on block and highly damaging combos on hit. Kim is preferably played in Extra mode because it makes his stomp cancel combos easier. Kims main weakness is that he doesn't have any long range tools.

Stomp Cancel

  • Kim's B stomp, d,d+B, has a special property where if you try to cancel it into qcb,db,f+K but you have no meter for a super, it will instead cancel the recovery frames of the stomp, letting you combo afterwards or continue putting pressure on the opponent.
