The King of Fighters XV/Shun'ei/Strategy

Safejumps

-214C will universally give a a solid safejump setup

• 214C has very easy spaced setups midscreen and in the corner (Forward Jump, Neutral Hop *or* Super Jump Back, Hyper Hop Forward...respectively)
• 214C even has a meter build 5f safejump that can be a spaced setup against certain characters midscreen (623A, Hyper Hop)

-214AC Grounded hit gives spaced safejump (Super Jump Forward, Neutral Hop *or* Super Jump Back, Hyper Hop Forward in corner)

• 214AC Juggles with more air time give a regular safejump instead (2A, Jump Forward, Airdash Forward)
• Examples: j.CD, 214AC OR 623AC, 623C, 214AC
• In the corner, neutral jump instead

-236236P gives a spaced safejump setup midscreen (Jump Forward, Airdash Forward) and a regular safejump in the corner

-236236KK off an air juggle gives a spaced safejump midscreen (Jump Forward, 5B, Hyper Hop Forward)

• You get a spaced safejump setup in corner (Super Jump Back, 2A, Hyper Hop Forward)
• You can use the same setup midscreen with Super Jump Forward, 2A, Hop Forward if you didn't get 236236KK off of an air juggle

-6B xx 236A gives a spaced safejump midscreen (5B, Neutral Jump, Airdash Forward)

• If 6B xx 236A hits from farther away, you'll need to use a different spaced safejump setup (Hyper Hop Forward, 2A, Hop Forward)
• You can also use the easier auto-timed regular safejump setup (Forward Jump x2)

-2D and 214A give spaced meaty light oki midscreen

-In the corner, you can hop right after 2D or 236C to get a safejump on recovery roll, and then walk back for spaced meaty pressure on non-recovery roll wakeup

• You can do the same with 214A or 236A, but your hop/hyperhop needs to be very slightly delayed - if done with perfect timing, you'll whiff

-Both throws give meaty jump in oki

-214236CD gives meaty jump in oki

-623A gives meaty jump in oki and soft knockdown

-236236K gives meaty jump in oki

• Grounded hit gives a safejump setup with jump forward

• Air juggles with 236236K result in a different knockdown timing, you can generally delay a part of your juggle sequence (like the cancel into 236236K) or your jump forward to make the above setup work

-236236PP only gives spaced meaty light oki midscreen

• In the corner you get meaty jump in oki
