cl. | Close to opponent. |
f. | Far from opponent. |
j. | Jumping move. |
AA | Anti-air. Hit the opponent while they're mid-air. |

P & K | P and K each denote "Any Punch (A or C)" and "Any Kick (B or D)" respectively. |
X/Y | Do either X move or Y move in a combo (Both final damage & stun values will be shown). |
X * N {X} * N |
Repeat 'X' input 'N' amount of times. Multiple inputs will be bundled into "{}". |
Starters
Keep in mind: The combos in the "Combos" section have been tested using the first starter in each category (the combos in Bold).
The other starters in each table should also work in each case, but may not.
Light Starters
Combo | Damage | Notes |
---|---|---|
2B > 2A > 3D | 74 | 2B > 2A is your low light confirm. 3D is unsafe on block from the max range that 2B > 2A lands on block, but is easy to confirm safely. |
Heavy Starters
Combo | Damage | Notes |
---|---|---|
j.X > cl.C > 6B | Standard jump-in starter. | |
cl.D | 70 | Reliable 2-hit confirm. Opens up your combo routing with meter. |
Other Starters

General Notes
- Can chain a second cr.B into cr.A
- Can use cl.C instead of cl.D too
- You can delay canceling of 3D into specials to guarantee 623D doesn't whiff.
- Meter Gain Values found by dividing number of pixels of gained meter by length of meter gauge (300 pixels).
- Some meter gain values rounded to nearest hundredth.

*Delay is very slight and to ensure that both kicks land. You have just enough time to cancel into Climax right as the second kick hits.
The last combo in this section requires King to have just above 3 meters or to start from a jump in at 3 meters to convert into Climax. Otherwise you can cancel into level 2 supers.
