Donkey Kong’s down tilt and forward tilt are also other noncommittal buttons to challenge grounded opponents with a high degree of safety. Up tilts, upward-angled forward tilts, and fadeback back airs give Donkey Kong access to a strong anti-air game. Donkey Kong can also gain important advantages from these moves, with tripping down tilts leading to grabs, dash attacks, and Giant Punch. His up tilts lead to combos into up airs, and his forward tilts lead to better stage positioning. Mix that in with the high reward from Donkey Kong's grabs thanks to Cargo Throw and we got a character who can take the upper hand and literally run with it. One who wants a versatile toolkit capable of playing many styles with a lean towards controlling space with explosive rewards would need to look no further than the leader of the bunch! |
