Kizuna Encounter/Gordon

Gordon Bowman

Introduction

The biggest cop in all of Jipang City, Gordon looks like a bad guy, has his partner as King Lion, and kind of plays like a bad guy. Despite this he is actually an awesome dad who enters the tournament to earn money for his sick daughters surgery

Strengths	Weaknesses
Lots of good grabs, including an air grab and a command grab super 236A is one of the few moves that can actually break air blocks Surprisingly good projectile for a big body character	He's a very big target A number of his moves are very unsafe Many of his normals are either straight up bad or are lacking the benefits that other characters have

Special Moves

623A

Friction Heater 623A File:KE gordon 623A.png	Damage Guard Cancel Level - M/M - 3 Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv 12/17 5/24 45 -36 Pursuit OK KD Pursuit A belly slide into your opponent. Hits mid and has a long recovery time. This move only sees use as an accident or to OTG.

236A

Launch Upper 236A File:KE gordon 236A.png File:KE gordon 236A 236A.png 236A Follow-up 236A Follow-up

Normal 236A Damage Guard Cancel Level - M (Air Unblockable) - 3 Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv 8 25 45 -27 Knockdown A hitgrab that launches the opponent into the air. Perform the followup right after he launches the opponent. This move also happens to be one of the only moves that actually anti airs since it can’t be air blocked. Still pretty unsafe on ground block if the opponent has a fast long range move. Follow-up 236A on hit Damage Guard Cancel Level - T - - Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv - - - - Knockdown

j.2B

Hip Bomber j.2B File:KE gordon j.2B.png	Damage Guard Cancel Level - H/H - 2/3/2021 Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv 6/14(18) 8/3/2021 33 -15 Pursuit OK KD Please don’t use this move

j.2C

Hard Pressure j.2C File:KE gordon j.2C.png	Damage Guard Cancel Level - T - - Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv - - 33 - - Gordon's air throw.

[2]8C

Spark Bolt [2]8C File:KE gordon 28C.png	Damage Guard Cancel Level - M o 3S Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv 22 - 55[11] -4 Pursuit OK KD Rank A projectile. Funny flash kick motion that's a projectile that eats other projectiles that don’t already eat projectiles. Recovers pretty fast and allows Gordon to annoy opponents who try to zone him out.

236C

Cyclone Tonfa 236C File:KE gordon 236C.png	Damage Guard Cancel Level - M o 3S Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv 7 8[1*8] 37 -26 Pursuit OK KD Best I can describe this move is “eh”. Gordon spins the tonfa above and in front him which comes out pretty fast but isn’t anything special. It’ll anti-air them if they pressed a button already

Desperation Moves

632146A

Mad Police 632146A File:KE gordon 632146A.png	Damage Guard Cancel Level - T o - Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Hit Adv 3 - - - Knockdown THE ONLY COMMAND GRAB IN THE ENTIRE GAME. Super self explanatory, just potemkin buster your opponent whenever you have the chance since you’ll just get a 6A if the grab doesn’t connect.
