General Gameplan
Neutral
Pressure
Frametraps
- close A 2D
- lights into delayed 3D - if you cancel this immediately it's a true string and if you're a little slow you leave a bigger gap
- heavies into 6B - can confirm into air ex fireball if it hits
- You can use fireballs for frametraps depending on distance
Mixups
Defense
Okizeme
Without meter or with only a little King must choose between higher damage in 623C or taking better oki for lower damage with 214C. However, with 1 bar and being near to the corner King can turn any hitconfirm into solid damage and an incredibly easy 4F safejump with 214214K.
