 Up mid-tier character.
+King is a poking, zoning and mixup character
-She gets an invincible command throw.
+"Double Strike"
+Mid-Tier as Striker.
-Character who can be good in zoning game with qcf+K and poking game. Her Venom Strike can be defensive and aggressive thus.
+{{ ProConTable
+| pros=
+* Fantastic mixups
-King excels at a mid range where you can control the immediate space in front of her with pokes, bat down jumps with cr.C, and safely use venom strikes with less fear of jumps. You want to play a more passive lockdown with King, no straight rushdown, not always zoning, but using her tools to keep opponents blocking and stuck until they make a mistake. st.D, cr.C, and j.CD are enough to keep players out of the air alone, while df.D, st.CD, and st.D/C are her main grounded pokes. Her move (f+B) is overhead.
+* Among the best fireballs in the game
+* hcb.B evades low attacks, hard to punish and makes for good blockstring pressure
+* Good normals with good priority, reach and damage
-Her roll back is important for her to bait opponent with her special moves.
+* Pairs great with Counter Mode
+| cons=
+* No crossups
-She has one of best high/low mixups of game.
+* No good reversals on wakeup
+}}
-Her problem is that she hasn't reversal move and no instant overhead move.
-On of best characters in Counter Mode with her combo : Close.C or Close.D > hcb+P xx qcb, qcb + K
-Mid-Tier as Striker.
