Interestingly, this has a guard point near the start of the active frames that, if timed correctly, lets King beat other characters' normals at range and nullify projectiles that travel at its height, including metered ones such as Ryo's [[The_King_of_Fighters_XV/Ryo_Sakazaki#Haoh_Shoukou_Ken|Haoh Shoukou Ken]].

This has the same unique property as Trap Shot in combos when cancelled from 3D - it stops any forward momentum on startup, which makes it prone to a costly 1-bar whiff if not timed correctly. Additionally, the damage scaling it tacks on combos just makes it pale in comparison to the juggle states King's EX moves provide. | |||
Think of it more as a panic defensive tool rather than combo filler. | |||

A sliding kick. Travels a good distance (just a couple of pixels from hitting from round-start range), and can be made safe with proper spacing or by cancelling it into a special. | |||
Sees use in combos or in mid-range situations - you can throw it to catch opponents blocking high while they expect a Venom Strike and then follow it up with either EX Tornado Kick or Quick Max activation for damage and corner carry. | |||
It can also low profile shallow jump-ins - though King has better options to deal with them. | |||
