If you have ever seen me play, you will find out, what a pain in the posterior King can be.
1. King's basic attacks are very useful.
2. King has frame cancels, example is being able to do a down c, into a forward b or down forward b, without touching the opponent,
3. If execute correctly, someone who is using King can execute nearly all the moves without leaving any openings.With the exception of the double strike.
4. Don't rely on the DM's it is probably better to use the super bar strategically, like how I prefer to do.
Like keeping the guy at a distance where my,{a} standing c or d will hit the opponent before any fireball can come out, or {b} down c will almost always hit the opponent or at the very least trade hits with the opponent resulting in the opponent being put in the same area as where he started, {c} just block and wait for the opponent to hit you, then use cd counter,to make the word counter appear, then jump forward and cd the player, then call a striker then execute a combo{if possible}
5. If you know how to play under pressure, even a single tick of damage will make even more of a pain, Maintaining postiton.
6. Don't think about King when you are playing, treat all the characters the same, Any good King player can be killed by a good Chin player, a good Hinako player, or a good player period.
That explains why I always play random. Unless if someone wants to challenge me.
Sorry got to run, to work, I am probably going to be late. Who cares, I can't be fired anyway.
