We haven’t seen Ash Crimson since King of Fighters 13, when his actions caused him to be erased from the timeline. Like Shermie, Chris, Yashiro and many others, several characters have returned from the grave as a result of Verse’s defeat in King of Fighters 14.
During gamescom 2021, a trailer came out that revealed the return of Ash Crimson. This means that the four protagonists of King of Fighters – Kyo, K ‘, Ash and Shun’ei – have reunited in King of Fighters 15. Now we have our first detailed look at the game of Ash with this latest trailer.
As expected from Ash, he still incorporates his own fighting style during the game. Many of your attacks will generate a green flame that will burn your opponent if you get too close.
Ash has access to quite a few ranged attacks, so he will excel a bit when it comes to zoning. Those who are too impatient and try to jump will be anti-issued by their Nivose roll.
Although this character is often shown in a relaxed position, he is canonically very powerful within the combatant king universe. This is a perfect character for those who like to divide into zones, punch and combine opponents.
