Kimtastic v2
Updated with video of Xiaohai and Leshar using Kim and a couple of strat tips plus more events! I think this page will most probably contain everything you need to know about Kim Kaphwan, apart from the fact his first name is Kaphwan.
- Foreward
- Frame Data
- Videos and clips
- Events News
Here’s the roundup for Kim, and as feared, he looks absolutely killer. Even SNK released a video to guide you through how to wreck your opponent: it’s all about their reaction time, can they block the mixups, the followups, the 4F hangetsuzan and then a crossup? I can’t see how this character will be as much fun versus the CPU, so it’s likely that there will be a surge of activity, so don’t spend too long in the shed, get out there and fight!
SNK has also released some bug fixes to adjust some missing hitboxes and inconsistent invulnerabilities which might explain some things.

Update: When your character can take more than 50% with one combo, you’re good.

41% for 1 bar?!!
41% off a low B and 1 stock at (near) mid-screen, with a corner carry, hard knockdown, and about 60% meter back.
Kim's autocombo is very potent in how it enables the D-version of his launcher off of a light. And that's really just the start of what he could do. pic.twitter.com/uRaMqbxBQH

In the end, you’re going to get hit by this one the most

For corner routes on 3rd position it's better to do the launcher super combos from what I've found. QM > cl.D 214B 28B 236236B, 236A, 28B into lvl1/3

Kim's 236A is relatively safe on block and can be used as a frametrap after cr.A. This does a LOT of dmg in the corner as a frametrap with 4 bar (731)#kofxv_kim #kofxv #kof15 pic.twitter.com/TiiVwEGUYm

Update: Will you choose a longer combo or a hard knockdown for setups? Ah
