How do i beat king?

[Centralfiction 𝔇𝔞𝔫𝔡y]

Haha, you crouched, here comes my fifety mids. Oh? your standing? goodbye 90% of your health from one grab :)

[The Hungry Werewolf]

Crouch so I can grab you (he has crouch grabs)
Stay grounded so I can grab you (he has grabs that pick you off the ground)
Learn to break every grab ever and avoid grabs so that I can freely abuse your fear of grabs and dish out the actually good damage from 1-2 moves
And lastly, don't forget to rant about it online and show everyone how amazing you are

[Sonik | Papi]

learn throw breaking and use lows. his ws punishment is among the worst.

[BeastKingSmash]

back away and play keep out, don't let him get in your face , abuse power crush and use lots lateral movement, don't overcommit with anything , and don't press on round start

this is the best you can do against this cancer good luck

[p graggy]

Go to your replays vs King and see the throw break commands if you're getting hit by the throws that take 90% of your hp

[PremiumG98]

you can play keepout if your character can, at range 0 check him with your fastest pokes (jab, df1, etc.) and step his throws

[Brainssss]

They actually should rework King.
I don't get how this guy remained in the game for literal 30 years being broken in the worst way.
In low to high ranks, he's too strong due to nobody knows how to break grip. In very high to highest ranks, he is useless as everyone knows how to do it.
Why to design a character like this is beyond me.

Those 50/50 grab from giant swing/1+2 variant has got to be his most annoying trait.

What I've found that works on King is...

+Watch out for Atlas Hammer. Always punish it with best launcher.

+His power crush, the one with the foot, I think is like -10. Jab punish it and take your turn.

+Pressure him with plus frames if you've got a more aggression-based character.

+Watch out for ff n 2, it hurts like hell. I forget how plus it is on hit, but sometimes they go for a 50/50 grab or hop-kick after, if they think you'll duck.

+b1 isn't really an issue, because most of the time I notice King players spacing further. Do duck d/f2,1. D/f1 has an extension, so punish it. It's -10.

+He also has a very slow "snake edge"-like low that launches. Make sure you always low-parry it.

+He has a low sweep that is extremely minus on block, but I barely see King players use it.

+Opening King is the biggest problem. If you see any openings, take your turn and try to pressure King up-close. Most King players don't seem to press much buttons as King's moves are kind of slow so try to bait when you think the King will press and counter-hit them.

+Always press 1 if King's back is near wall and the opponent throws a 1+2. Unless they're doing Shining Wizard (the running variation) of 1+2.

You gotta train your eyes and hands to be able to react to his grabs. Its hard to do but doable. Also learn the specific throw break for his chain grabs specially RDC and Romero special. I don't think its a good idea to mash against King, because you gotta be ready defensively to be able to break his throws although pros can break his throws even when attacking lol. Note that you can't break every throw, no one can, not even the pros so being able to break 50% of throws is actually a good start.

You need to train your eyes and reflexes to a superhuman level to react to all the spam, and having the ability to read minds would also be useful.

[幼稚园咯～]

read his move pattern and predict when he wanna grab you duck down and while rising use send him to air move do combo until he scare use grab move.

[Shocker]

Don't even bother to lab that scumbag character with his 180 moves and 10-20 different type of throws. Just block every King player after a fight. That's what I'm doing.
