well basically im trying to see(learn) how kim is in A groove, and i was wondering what you guys think of A-groove kim…
Im trying out the namonaki custom and I think that its gonna take me a little bit to learn, but not too long, the timing on the close fk’s and far fp’s is kinda tricky…
Ive been through rock,raiden,chun-li (boring imo),king (still use her sometimes)…
so im trying to fill in my blank spot on the team ?/Joe/Geese
any strats for a A kim user??
help me learn him, I do now a good amount of things about him
so you dont have to take baby steps with me…
i have been messing around with Kim in A and i have found Kim to be a very good battery with some decent A grooves. Especially near the corner. My current one that i like has to be on a opponent standing but it goes as follows:
ducking mk, ducking fpx2, standing fp,standing fk, hcb fk, down fk, then hit up mp (should be his charge move) land mash lk (about 4 times) repeat then hcb hcf k super. i have some others but i’m too lazy to post right now. let me know what you think and post yours up too.
K is probably Kim’s best. Low jump is good, so is rage. He doesn’t really have any great RC’s so he gets JD, even though his roll is good JD is better, and he gets run.
K groove reduces a charactar to block tactics, which is not what Kim is built for. His kicks have good range and good damage. His CC’s are strong and very useful, and I personally would not like to play without rolls.
Odin- If you practice with Kim and it isn’t working for you, try Eagle, Rolento, or Terry. Their CC’s are relatively easy and put out a good amount of damage.
K doesnt reduce you to block tactics. Only scrubs try to JD everything that is thrown at them. Good K groovers JD what they KNOW is coming. It’s too risky not to. Also K is probably the groove best suited for rushdown in the entire game, so idk where you got the blokcing tactics thing from…
No matter how you feel about K groove, this thread was started to talk about A groove Kim. He did not state that he was interested in changing grooves, which is probably a good idea, in my opinion, because I think Kim is best in A groove.
I have been practicing with Kim in A groove frequently now. His CC’s are not extremely strong, I average 6500-7000 dmg per CC, but the opportunity to connect is outstanding. He can begin his CC in a plethora of situations. I use him as a battery atm.
You are right. I think wrong, and because someone is good with K Kim means that K is his best and everyone should play him in K. This thread is about A groove Kim, it was not started to argue his best groove.
Yeah well, K-Kim is still good, C-Kim is awesome because of the infinite and horrible links to level 2 supers. A-Kim, though, is amazing. I would use A-Kim more if C-Groove didn’t have the infinite.
