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.

Heavy Starters

Combo Damage Notes
j.X > cl.C > 6B Standard jump-in starter.

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.

  • Use cl.C instead of cl.D for slightly more wiggle room for the Climax Cancel.

The last two combos in this section require 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.
