Greetings everyone! As a person who mains King K. Rool, I do realize the Croc King himself has glaring flaws, but I shall remain positive and talk about his biggest strengths.
- K. Rool’s survivability is his arguably his biggest strength, even though he can be easily combo’d, he can at numerous times survive in the battlefield while taking over 200% damage.
- K. Rool has good options for KO’s; K. Rool’s moves which are KO confirms are among the most powerful in the game.
- K. Rool’s belly armor, while it has its ups and downs, can be beneficial too if used wisely.
- K. Rool has a good projectile game, and considering he’s a superheavy, that’s a unique trait to have; you just have to time the moves right and not be too predictable to your opponent.
- K. Rool’s down throw is very beneficial, especially when your opponent is at least at 126% and doing the down throw with an immediate down smash is such a huge positive to keep him viable in battle.
- His propeller recovery can be useful if done at certain angles where you can avoid being hit by your opponent.
- His down special is also helpful if timed correctly, it’s certainly useful when used as a reflection against characters with projectiles and useful as a counter against characters that fight close up.
- His spikes are amazing to look at when perfected right.
Remember to stay positive if you are having trouble. I know it sounds cliche, but never give up the battle. The Kremling King plays differently at certain match-ups. Hopefully they fix his lag in the next patch. From there, things will go much smoother.
