The King of Fighters 2003/Shen

Introduction

「　Shen Woo　」

Shen is a character that excels on melee, he usually has problems with characters that can stay away and safe from his Zetsu geki ken (qcfx2 + P) using low projectiles. (Iori for example)

In general, he is a fairly solid mid-tier character and with a few interesting options that we will list throughout this page:

Strengths	Weaknesses
One of the characters with the most potential for stun has a few ways to deal with projeciles high damage combos that are simple to preform good buttons Very easy to learn	lacks a good crossup can struggle defensively as he has no reversal ouside of meter only low confirm is with Kohyou rengeki (qcfx2 + K) abit dependent on meter to get things going bad LDM

shen does a slow spin around before doing a fast kick horizontal knocksdown on hit cancelable from his normals but is too slow to combo from anything i don't recommend using this

by holding D shen will not preform the kick shen is vunerable throughout the entire spin can be an OKAY tool for mix-ups
