PokeMixupKeepoutWhiff punishOkizemePressureDefenseTricky

King is one of the few characters whose throws are a true mixup, since both his Giant Swing (f,n,hcf+1) and chain throws (CD.DF+1+3 and CD.DF+2+4) look like 1+2 breaks but are broken with 1 or 2. As a tradeoff for this, his lows are quite weak, so he has to rely heavily on throws to break through defense.

Strengths
  • Fastest throw in the game (i10)
  • Loads of okizeme options and situations
  • Easy whiff punishment (f+2,1)
  • Mid check with good tracking (df+2)
  • Lots of elbows and knees, good vs parries
