All right I’m going to respond in line here at least with my experience just because I’ve had enough coffee that I want to do it.
-_--------
Jago: Kim has a fighting chance here. Jago does have a very well rounded and easy to use set of tools so it will be a tough match.
— j defeats my Kim more then anyone. Part of that might be due to the amount of Jago players.
Shago: Again, Kim has a fighting chance here due to her dragon kick’s movement being able to derail Shago’s movement shenanigans.
–shago normally gets me. I haven’t spent much time with shadow learning his combos or his moves so generally I’m just trying to figure out what just happened.
Aganos: Aganos players can be rolled by abuse of heavy nunchuks if not prepared, but yeah overall it is like a gnat trying to fight a mountain. Her dragon kicks are almost useless if Aganos blocks. Best strategy is to leap to the other side and heavy nunchuk.
–I thought a good AG last night and yeah I didn’t have much against him.
Raam: Hard one for Kim b/c fighting a mountain lol. Hit and run seems to be the best strategy here.
–I haven’t fought too many but I did okay against a high-ranking Raam but I felt like I was playing her like a Street fighter character… maybe more like a mortal Kombat 2 character so on to something there
Maya: She’s my other main. Kim is on pretty even footing with her.
–I almost took out a 36 Star killer who was playing Maya and he gave me a nice compliment I only got down I think his first life bar maybe a little bit more I generally lose to Maya I have difficulty combo breaking
Gargos: Kim usually has the advantage here. Her dragon kicks make flying very risky for him, so he is on the ground which is not as good for him.
-I’ve only fought a couple
Aria: Aria usually has the advantage here, but might just be because in expert hands she is so deadly.
–I agree
Sabrewulf: Slightly difficult for Kim, because he does not jump much or anything which makes her kicks not very useful.
–I do have trouble with saber wolf.
Riptor: Same as sabrewulf pretty much unless the riptor player uses too many fireballs which Kim can deflect.
–raptors my second so I know generally what they’re going to do I’m probably 50/50.
Orchid: Pretty even match for her I think.
-I lose to orchid quite a bit.
Tusk: Tough one for Kim I think. Hard to jump in and get close because of his 360 sword swipe. Might be possible to dragon counter it but hard.
-I don’t fight a lot of tusk. I think you and I had a match we got pretty close. I’ve actually been putting in some time against tusk so I’m curious to see how my next tusk matchup goes. The amount of life he takes away is ridiculous.
Thunder: Tough one for Kim again. Most of her tools are useless against him, and his combos will eat almost an entire life bar.
-if a good thunder gets you in the corner it’s like being in a blender.
Mira: Pretty even for Kim I think. Dragon kicks reduce Mira’s mobility quite a bit.
–I have faced so few that I can’t even comment. I think I’ve only fought maybe one or two.
Rash: Hard one for Kim. His unconventional attacks work well agains her and his ball resists the dragon kick.
–I do pretty well against rash. I think I’ve defeated one killer rash maybe two. Both disconnected RQd
Arbiter: Hard one for Kim. His repeated sweeping strikes hit hard and far and her reach is too short to counter effectively.
–off of any throw I do a heavy kick cross up meaty (allegedly it’s a meaty) and if it connects medium or high kick dragon kick (the YOLO kicks not the q cb version) because he’s so big it connects and you can juggle off of it.
Cinder: Kim has a fighting chance here. HIs extreme mobility can be countered with dragon kick.
–the only senders I fight quite good and I’ve noticed that everyone that is really high ranked with cinder is on point with their counter-breakers and combo breakers.
Eyedol: Tough one for Kim. His attacks hit hard and far and it is difficult for her to retaliate. It is hard to get close to him because of lightning, meteors, and ground electricity.
-only fought a couple
Fulgore: Pretty even. Kim’s kicks and good jumping get out of the way of his teleport.
–I have to figure out this matchup because generally speaking I get bodied pretty hard. For the most part I’m on defense here and that doesn’t seem to work very well.
Kilgore: Same as Fulgore.
-I don’t think I’ve fought any
Glacius: Kim might have a bit of an edge here. She can dragon kick him while he is casting ice projectiles or dragon kick him. She can get out of the way of his underground teleport.
–cold shoulder teleport cold shoulder teleport cold shoulder teleport cold shoulder hail teleport cold shoulder tail teleport medium punch Lance cold shoulder teleport cold shoulder teleport…
Kan-Ra: Hard one for Kim if they know what they are doing. Which is hard since he is such a difficult character to master. Once he sets up traps not much she can do though.
-laughingly difficult match for me
Omen: Pretty even for Kim I think. Her dragon kicks counter his flight but he is very fast and can easily outpace her.
–haven’t faced many
Spinal: Pretty even I think. He does not jump that much so kicks are limited in use except for escaping his warp.
–doing better against him
Hisako: Pretty even I think. Her kicks are not that useful, but it can be hard for Hisako to close in.
–I’m doing well against sako
Shin Hisako: Same as Hisako
Sadira: Pretty even I think. Her jumping can be shut down by dragon kicks, but she is so fast that it is difficult.
-I lose
TJ Combo: I think combo has a slight edge here. Most of his attacks blow through anything Kim has. However, his movement is pretty stinky aside from power moves, so she can dragon kick/jump around many of his moves.
-combo definitely has an edge. Especially if they’re really good a really good TJ combo is pretty fun to watch actually
Eagle: I think it is pretty even. I have never played anything less than an expert Eagle player, so I always lost against him. However, logically her projectile deflect should counter arrows which are his main thing.
-same. Whenever I face an eagle they always know exactly what to do I feel like I’m fighting someone who knows my button inputs before I press them.
I have to remember how to block
