I just continuously lost to a King player for like 13/14 times and just managed to beat him back for once.
but make sure to dont get hit by the CH 4 and 5 th. ali kick. it will lead to a full juggle.
the thing is king can perform 5 ali kicks in a row if the first hit was a CH but you are able to block after the third.
But since it normaly only does 3 low kicks max many people gets up again to retaliate and gets hit by the 4. and 5. lowkick.
Even after the first kick lands, both of his follow-up options (Low and Mid) are blockable AND launch punishable.
Ali kick is not a natural combo so you can actually duck it and then WS punnish him with a launcher. Mid punch is not such a big reward though rather pesky to get hit by. You just need to learn to be patient with this stuff. It can also be fuzzy guarded. He starts that spin animation after all. That 2 is telegraphed after all. And it is unsafe too. If a king player spams ali kicks you just gotta expect it every time. Remember that it's a highcrush so he is allways gonna set this move up by provoking you to go for highs when you want to regain your turn and retaliate. That's when he gets his CH and harrases you.
You can try to make it wiff and then punnish it if you see king trying to cut the distance with ali kicks. It has good range after so they will going to try to hit you with it from afar.
If I'd be playing Feng for example I would kill that strat with his sick f3,4 wiff punnish. You can find your own characters options for that role. Like Lee, King himself and AK would punnish it with f2,1. Jin can just f4 it or b2,1 for a safer option.
In summary there ARE enough options to deal with this it's just that depending on a character and a situation you'll need a little more or a little less fundamentals for execution.
I myself get hit by this move from time to time even though I've played for quite awhile now. But I allways know that a King who abuses it is pretty much playing giveaways with me.
