{{SUBPAGENAME}} (pronounced "kay dash") is an all rounder comfortable in the hands of both beginners and veterans. K's gameplan revolves around his swiss army knife of a move, Ein Trigger. Thanks to its many different follow-ups, Ein Trigger can be used to poke, combo, and zone for big meter build or big damage. Of course K' also has many other moves, such as his Crow Bite DP as an invincible reversal and his Blackout special that can swap sides with the opponent. Smart usage of K's variety of tools will result in K' being able to shine in whatever way you choose to play him.
One extra thing should be noted: optimal conversions and combos with K' can take a good amount of hit-confirming skill and physical execution, and should be noted for anyone looking to master the character, as dropping his better combos can cost you precious meter and also put you in a bad spot to get punished.

Pros
Cons
Ein Trigger is incredibly versatile, with five possible follow-ups to choose from in any situation alongside being an alright poke on its own.
His meter build and meter spend are both great, with tons of useful EX moves for combos and utility.
Good damage returns on most of his conversions, especially in the corner.
Has great corner carry to put them in place for those combos.
Can convert nearly any anti-air or air-to-air hit into full combo when near corner thanks to j.214BD.
Can be very centralized on just Ein Trigger, making him a bit predictable.
6B overhead can't be Max Cancelled, instead being able to cancel to j.214B/D. This makes it much less rewarding than similar overheads, despite being as slow as them.
Meter intensive. Many of K' best tools require at least an EX bar to be truly impactful.
Few options to get damage from mid-range confirms. Max-mode confirms from far 5b are extremely tight and ex Ein Trigger will often whiff if hitting at tip range of 2B.

This move is special and super cancellable. Can be used to get a quick knockdown or combo with minute spike/narrow spike (214B/D/BD) or ein trigger (236A/C/AC).
Average range and slow speed are sub-par as a poke and is not safe on block, but pushes the opponent away to make it safer.

A high reverse roundhouse kick. Useful for anti-airing and checking standing opponents with its semi-horizontal range.
Can hit crouchers at the very tip of where close D becomes far D. Otherwise, will whiff on crouching opponents at farther ranges.
Slightly faster than 5C but with a lot more range and diagonally above K'.
Tip: After hitting an airborne opponent, doing 2144+BD (instant air minute spike) will connect without counter hit. Can yield a full combo at or close to the corner.

Surprisingly, hits low. However, due to the constant threat of 2B > Ein Trigger causing people to almost always block low, it's not much of a benefit.
Inside kick. This is K' only standing low. Slower than 5C but hits once for more damage. Use as an alternative to 2B or in frame traps.

Your main combo starter
One of the most important normals in K's toolbox, you will be using this a lot during pressure, when poking and fishing for damage/corner carry opportunities. It is important to note this is one frame slower than 2A which can make it much worse for frame traps and 4-5f punishes. Beware doing too many in a row (especially after a jump-in) when attempting to convert into ex Ein Trigger as the push-back can easily make it whiff.
K' has access to a powerful but extremely difficult conversion from three 2B's into EX Narrow spike (214BD->214BD). This leads to some of his highest damage options off an easy to spot low confirm if you are able to master the execution requirement.

K's longest range aerial attack
Great air to ground angle
Somewhat limited air-to-air application.
On counter hit can be followed up with Minute Spike (easy)for corner carry or 4B into full combo (harder).
Can also follow up with j.2144BD for some corner carry and extra damage on normal hit.
Lots of block stun for closing the gap and starting pressure. Use this when your opponent feels comfortable blocking your approach for extra frame advantage and guard bar damage.

Causes a crumple when used standalone but not special cancellable in this situation.
When cancelled, can only combo from the 1st hit of c.C. It is too slow to combo from lights and too short ranged to combo from other heavies. Overall worse than 4B as a combo filler in every possible way due to lower damage.
One advantage it has over 4B is better muscle memory for returning K' players since c.C (1 hit) into 6A always worked in every KOF K' appeared in and was the preferred heavy starter in almost all of them.
Juggles airborne opponents and has some utility in fancy mid air quick max activation combos.

K' throws out a stationary circular swirl of fire at waist level which can be cancelled into a variety of follow ups. This can negate projectiles that come into contact with it. The followups can still be performed in this case.
A version knocks down and is preferred as a starter in mid screen combos. K' moves forward slightly when throwing out the flame, giving it slightly longer range. As such, it reliably combos from repeated 2B even at near max distance.
C version does not knock down and is preferred as a starter in corner combos.
EX version negates EX projectiles and completely beats normal projectiles. It also "sticks" opponents in place on hit and lets you combo into 6D consistently for nice conversions.

6A followup is mainly useful as juggle filler in corner combos. Safest option if Ein Trigger is blocked. However, due to its limited range and pushback from Ein Trigger, this move can whiff if too many normals are used at the start and leave you somewhat more unsafe. Will connect on a cornered opponent. There's a 1F gap between 236P & 6A which is useful for corner pressure. Will hit anyone trying to jump or not blocking. Can roll between the hits or use invincible reversal between the hits.
When used after 236AC, 6A is a hard knockdown and an overhead. This is also a true block string with 236AC making it one of the fastest overheads in the game.
Note: You cannot use the same ein trigger follow-up in the corner. IE: You can do 236C, 6D, 236(A/C/AC), 6A. You cannot do 236C, 6D, 236 (A/C/AC), 6D.

6B followup is a slow fireball. Depending on the spacing of Ein Trigger, this can be either unsafe or even plus on block, except for in the corner. Cannot juggle afterwards during a mid-air hit except with an air EX Minute Spike.
After 236C, the fireball is faster.
After 236AC, this is a 2-hit slow fireball that gradually speeds up and can mess with attempts to roll or jump it. Slightly safer on block compared to normal versions. Still does not allow normal juggles afterwards.
Normal versions of Second Shoot can be super cancelled but there is little utility in combos because of limited hit stun and its inability to juggle. However, it can be whiff canceled into Heat Drive at a distance to punish attempts to jump, roll or neutralise your fireball. It can also be whiff canceled into Climax as a hard read against hyper jumps.

6C followup is a forward-moving punch that does the most damage out of 236P follow-ups, knocks down, and is super cancellable.
After 236AC, this is a forward-moving punch that juggles, sort of like normal versions of the 6A follow up. Useful to tag on extra damage in corner juggles.
You get another 236C, 6(A/B/C) if you do 236AC, 6C for a potential 3 ein trigger combo.

6D followup launches opponent and is generally the most rewarding finisher. Functions decently as an anti-air.
Corner combos with 236C, 6D can be followed up with another 236 (A/C/AC) for a double Ein Trigger combo.
AC version doesn't launch the opponent higher, but K' recovers faster compared to normal versions.
6D into 4K also performs a teleport which stops right below a juggled opponent. Useful for chasing down juggled opponents mid screen and following up with 4B > combo of your choice. May cause awkward side switching if done point blank.

Normal version provides excellent corner carry knocking the opponent very far away. Follow up with Narrow Spike to close the distance.
The EX version of Minute Spike has a few frames of Guard Point, this allows you to blow through moves with a fast distance closing move that is also a combo starter.
Due to the above property, this is one of the most important tools K' has when fighting against characters with fireball traps like King, Athena, Robert and Joe. Can also be used against strong but telegraphed attacks like Terry's Burn Knuckle. Be sure to cancel into Narrow Spike after the Guard Point (before Minute Spike hits) to convert into a combo.

Cannot be cancelled into Narrow Spike.
All versions can be cancelled from any air normal but will not combo except on counter hit or if using EX version.
While you can cancel and combo into this move during a jump in normal, there's almost no reason to do so since you can land and start a ground combo for more damage.
Can also be performed during a backdash.
Air EX version is an anywhere juggle and has significantly less lag when landing, allowing for better juggles.
If EX version hits an opponent who is not in a juggle state (i.e. anywhere juggle), an additional 25% scaling penalty is applied. Meaning that the move scales the combo by 30% instead of 5%.
It is possible to perform an instant EX Air Minute Spike on the ground via a Tiger Knee input (i.e. 2147BD). Regular Air Minute Spike has a slight height requirement of 3 units, meaning it cannot be Tiger Knee'd in a similar fashion.

All versions can be held and deals proportionately more damage. Does not become unblockable when fully charged.
Stays in front of opponent if blocked.
Despite it being possible to Advanced Cancel into MAX Chain Drive, there doesn't appear to have any way to combo it, unlike in KOF XI.
Plays the satisfying blast sound effect all the way from KOF '99.

K' tosses his glasses and starts a short autocombo if it hits. The glasses start off at about his chest level and it travels in a slight arc downwards.
Can be climax cancelled during any hit of the autocombo.
For A/C versions, the sunglasses will negate most normal or EX projectiles and clash with super projectiles.
For the AC version, the sunglasses will negate most normal/EX and super projectiles and clash with MAX super projectiles.
The sunglasses can be reflected but it is unrewarding to do so, as they deal 0 damage. Moreover, if K' is hit by his own reflected sunglasses, he recovers much faster compared to simply blocking or dodging the sunglasses.
In all versions, if the sunglasses miss, gets blocked or clashes with other super projectiles, K' stays in place and pulls out a new pair.

Due to its large hitbox and quick startup, it combos from basically all possible super and climax cancels.
Takes 1000 years to recover if blocked. On the bright side, you might get to see one of those rare 100% raw max combos.
Please remember the much better metered options to escape pressure like the universal GCAB/GCCD or even wakeup EX black out before you even think about using this as a reversal.
Only does 1 hit on block for 3 chip damage.
Negates almost any projectile that comes into contact with the flames but it's a moot point as you'll still be stuck with roughly 700 years of recovery if you do so.
