Gameplay Overview

King is a mixed bag character. She can keep an opponent at bay by utilizing her projectile game, though predictability in this area can work against her favor. Her rushdown isn't terribly exceptional since she doesn't have any real mixup options. Because of this, her neutral game is very important. Using EX moves and drive cancels, King is able to get the opponent to the corner, where she can get her best damage with either HD combos or EX Surprise Rose. King's difficult matchups are those against rushdown characters. Having poor normals and lack of a decent reversal without meter really hurts King in the defensive department. Coupled with the fact that she is generally poor at building meter, King works best when not used as a point(1st) character.


Console Changes

- Jump D stays out longer - close C has faster startup - D Venom Strike (air) has a smaller recoil - far D has less lag - (Slide can be cancelled without being cancelled into

Yamamoto – "We focused on her normals mainly. Although the number of changes are few, it will change gameplay significantly as normals are used most often. Her slide is a great low move and since her close HP {s.C} isn’t affected by scaling easily, please us it often as a combo starter."

Gameplay Notes

Pros

  • Good zoning tools (projectiles)
  • Good EX moves
  • Easy BnBs and HD combos
  • Fast movement speed (backdash/run)

Cons

  • Slow normals (short range, low priority)
  • Poor mixup game (no overhead/proximity unblockable)
  • Low damage potential compared to a majority of the cast
  • Requires corner for high damage
  • Needs meter for damage/reversals
  • Not good at building meter

Normals

Standing

st. A: 30 damage, chain/cancellable, hits mid. A standard jab attack, good for stopping hops.

st. B: 30 damage, chainable, hits low. A standing kick aimed low, useful for chaining into slide kick.

st. C: 80 damage, hits mid. A straight punch which is not very useful outside of pokes or a combo ending reset.

st. D: 80 damage, hits mid. A high angled kick with very slow startup and recovery.

cl. C: 70 damage, cancellable, hits mid. A high arcing uppercut, decent as an anti-air against neutral jumps when cornered.

cl. D: 40+45 damage, cancellable, hits mid. A two-hit angled kick similar to st.D. King's best normal for combos and blockstrings. Cancel with Venom Strike to make it safe.


Crouching

cr. A: 25 damage, chain/cancellable, hits mid. A crouching jab, good in combos.

cr. B: 30 damage, chainable, hits low. A crouching low kick, arguably one of her best pokes and ground combo starters.

cr. C: 70 damage, cancellable, hits mid. A crouching uppercut, can be used as a pseudo anti-air.

cr. D: 80 damage, cancellable, hits low. A crouching low kick, similar to cr.B, with greatly increased recovery time. Poor when used as a punish.


Jumping

j. A: 45 (40) damage, cancellable, hits overhead. A jumping downwards jab, rarely used.

j. B: 45 (40) damage, whiff/cancellable, hits overhead. A jumping back kick aimed upwards, King's best air-to-air attack.

j. C: 72 (70) damage, cancellable, hits overhead. A jumping downwards punch, similar to j.A with more hitstun. Useful as a quick jump-in when not crossing-up the opponent.

j. D: 70 (68) damage, hits overhead. A jumping downwards angled kick, can crossup. King's most common jump-in to start combos. Can NOT be used as an instant overhead (even on Raiden).


Blowback Attack

CD: 75 damage, whiff/cancellable, hits mid. A spin kick to the midsection, generally beats lows. Good as a standing poke.

j. CD: 90 (80) damage, cancellable, hits mid. An aerial spinning heel kick that arcs downwards, slow startup. Decent air-to-air if done early. Often misses against grounded/crouching opponents.

GCCD: 10 damage, hits mid. Guard Cancel Blowback Attack - A spin kick to the midsection, similar to st.CD. May miss on opponents who hit with high jump-ins.


Throw

Hook Buster = (b/f+C/D) - 100 damage, can be recovery rolled. King throws the opponent with her legs. C version throws opponent forward, D version throws opponent behind.


Command Moves

Slide Kick = (df+D)

  • King's slide kick moves her forward on the ground for a low hitting kick. When landing a close high kick, can combo into slide kick and initiate a cancel into Trap Shot, Venom Strike or Tornado Kick. You can cancel this move freely without cancelling from another normal (ex. s.D, df+D)

- Cancel-able

- Hit Detection: Low

- Damage: 40

Special Moves

Trap Shot = (dp+K)

  • King will do a backflip kick. If it lands, she will go into a full animation where she kicks the opponent multiple times. If it whiffs, no further animation will occur. Trap Shot can be canceled into a lot of different moves (Venom Strike, Tornado Kick, EX Trap Shot, and Surprise Rose). Unsafe on block, especially if the opponent has the player in the corner. Not viable as anti-air unless done as an EX version. EX version has full invincibility against attacks (not projectiles).

(EX) = dp+BD

- Drive/Super Cancel-able

- Hit Detection: High

- Damage: 0+20x3+80/0+20x6+80


Venom Strike = (qcf+K)

  • King's projectile. A standard fireball on the ground. She can also perform this move anytime during her jump-arc whether it be neutral, backward, or forward, which is very useful for zoning. EX version version hits twice: goes through standard projectiles, trades with EX projectiles, and loses to DM projectiles.

(EX) = qcf+BD

- Super Cancel-able

- Hit Detection: High

- Damage: 65/75x2


Air Venom Strike = (qcf+K) in air

  • When done as an aerial version, A version drops straight down, B version makes King jump slightly backwards before landing, EX version drops straight down at a faster rate than A version.

(EX) = qcf+BD in air

- Hit Detection: High

- Damage: 60/120


Tornado Kick '95 = (hcb+K)

  • King does a whirlwind kick forward. The start up on this move feels pretty slow, so don't throw it out when the opponent is close enough to react. It's called Tornado Kick '95 because her Tornado Kick in recent games have been much more vertical, and this Tornado Kick resembles the original horizontal version in KoF 95. Second hit will whiff on crouchers (unsure on Raiden, testing necessary). Unsafe on block, unless blocked from afar (hits with the tip). EX version has invincibility, may be used as an anti-air.

(EX) = hcb+BD

- Drive/Super Cancel-able

- Hit Detection: Close

- Damage: 30x2/60x2/55x3

Desperation Moves

Double Strike = (qcfx2+K)

  • King throw's out two very large and fast Venom Stikes. B version projectile travels slower than D version, same damage.

- Hit Detection: High

- Damage: 105x2


Surprise Rose = (qcfx2+P)

  • King does an upwards kick during the first part of the animation, then lands forward for more kicks. The upwards kick in the beginning makes this super viable as an anti air, but it does not have great priority and can get beaten out by certain normals. Depending on whether you press A or C, she will travel shorter or farther respectively with the second part. Max Cancel-able during any of the hits (minus the initial upwards kick).

(EX) = qcfx2+AC

- Max Cancel-able

- Hit Detection: High

- Damage: 10x2+0+12x11+48/10x2+0+(10x3+30)x3+10x3+100

Neomax

Venom Shot = (qcbx2+BD)

  • Can be done from the ground or in the air. If done from the ground, King jumps straight up before performing the move. Superflash/timefreeze does not occur until the peak of the jump, and therefore can be interrupted before the move executes. If interrupted in this way, no meter is spent. If Venom Shot is done from the air, startup is 1 frame. Not all hits are guaranteed.


- Hit Detection: High

- Damage: 30x(1~17)
