Soul King
Soul King (魂王)
“You don’t get to decide what a human life is worth.”
Passive: Soul Style
The Soul Style meter will build up as you damage your opponent with the Soul King moveset.
There are four different ranks (C, B, A and S-Rank) that you build up to. Each Soul King move contributes a different amount of meter.
Landing the same move twice in a row reduces the Soul Style meter by 25%.
Landing a variety of moves (five or more consecutively) will increase the gain values by 15%.
Venting reduces the Soul Style meter by 25%.
Most moves have a Bonus Effect to increase Soul Style gain, listed below in the moveset.
