The King Bible (WIP)

I want to try and change King into a science exploring every option and counter, focusing less upon the theory behind the character.

Combos

Most of these can be started off a jumping attack but that adds too many vairables to the combos due to distance and how deep you hit the jumping attack so i’m not going to cover jumping attacks at the start of combos. Also I’ve tried to keep the meter usage practical, like not spending 2 extra bars for 50 extra damage.

Next, frametraps & mixups.

If i’ve got anything wrong please correct me.

Hopefully we can get this nice and fleshed out so we can have all the King stuff compiled into one thread.

A few little nitpicky things:

  • A lot of unnecessary space being used, I personally like the way the Paul Combo Thread is done. It’s more space efficient and you can easily find your optimal punish for your situation (counter, 1 bar, etc.). You could just parenthesize the damage and meter and display it that way to save space or something.

  • You have your abbreviations mixed and matched. For example, you’ll say EX Konvict Kick, JKL, JKL, JKL, cr.fierce xx RJB. I’d prefer if you stuck to either abbreviating everything or expanding everything.

  • The note for Disgraceful Kick says “Note: *If you do the Disgraceful Kick at max range you have to jump forward instead fierce of neutral jump fierce.”. *Are you saying you have to jump diagonally toward and do jump fierce, or that I should be doing j.forward?

  • The note on Air-to-Air (Counter-Hit) says “Note: you can go straight into j.fierce but its height dependent and for the extra damage its not worth the risk as its quite hard to tell if its possible or not.”. I believe you mean s.fierce.

I’ve expanded all of the abreviations and fixed the errors in the notes. I’ll work on the formatting, i basically just formatted it the same as my notebook but i can see how there is too much space used.

Thanks for all the help!

I did some work on his comboable special moves and max damage combos you can use as you please; probably can do better on the counter hit shoulder, but I simply can’t get an initial knee lift to hit for the life of me

What setups do we have for tick throw setups on canceled crouching moves to Shining Wizard? I can do some work in the lab later, but I’d assume someone has them written down

I am finding one or two cr. jabs is best.
Standing jabs and work really well also.

However something I have been noticing is people getting better at countering ex, being able to react to the ex flash.

If cancel a blocked cr.jab into shining wizard they can’t jab you out of it (i haven’t extensively tested this), what is normal practice is to go cr.jab, cr.jab, cr.short/shining wizard. Its better to go into the cr.short instead of the standing command throw as you can get more damage off it.

SFxT has throw guard, so you can’t throw someone until they’ve the 4th frame after blockstun ends. As I believe everyone has a 4 frame or less jab/short, you have to EX the Shining Wizard for it to be guaranteed. That said, there’s 2 active frames on the Shining Wizard, which means you need a move which has less than or equal to 15 frames of blockstun for a normal and less than or equal to 16 frames for an EX and is also cancelable. If we’re looking at all moves then

:lp: :mp: cl:lp: cl:mp: (only works for Giant Swing or on Hugo), cl:hp: (EX only), cl:mk: cr:lp: cr:mp: cr:hp: (EX only), cr:lk: cr:mk:

Sadly King can’t do a walk jab at all due to it being neutral on block up close and 5 frames along with +2 far, so that’s out. This is all off the frame data in the guide; I swear some of these simply do not work in game. I’ll hit the lab, and would welcome some help in testing this as well.

I tested that with a friend so it might of just been human error that lead us to believe that.

cr.jab is +3 on block and 4 frame start up, but i’m not sure if this is one of the games where crouching takes a certain amount of frames, if it isn’t then that is probably more effective as a frame trap, although its still pretty bad.

If they do have a 4 or more frame jab you can go from cr.jab to the first hit of rolling elbow rush which is 4frames starup and +1 on block then back into cr.jab. That’s all theory though i haven’t tested it.

Can somebody sticky this?
