== Introduction ==
''Kyoko doesn't even want to be here.''

With her command grab, anti-air throw and suite of catch counters, you'd be forgiven for thinking that Kyoko is best played as a grappler. But despite what her kit might tell you, Kyoko is a character who relies much more on her powerful striking attacks to set up looping 50/50 setplay. With one of the game's few four-hit aerial chains, high damage combos and consistent access to hard knockdowns with EX {{Tooltip|text=Sazanka|hovertext=623K}}, Kyoko is more than capable of overwhelming the opponent with her offense and not giving them a chance to breathe. Unfortunately, this powerful offense comes at the expense of not just meter, but also a linear neutral game -- with her air normals being her primary means of establishing space control and approaching, she can suffer against patient opponents who are willing and able to control her movement.

{{StrengthsAndWeaknesses
| intro = [[File:avg2 kyoko mini.png|20px]] '''Kyoko''' is an aggressive setplay character who uses her dominant aerial options to score knockdowns that set up ambiguous left/right okizeme.
| pros =
* '''Powerful Aerial Presence:''' Kyoko has fantastic aerial normals, and her ability to chain all four of them together gives her exceptional space control options in the air.
* '''High Combo Damage:''' Kyoko's combos consistently lead to very high damage, especially when she's willing to spend meter.
* '''Oppressive Setplay Mixups:''' Kyoko's easy access to hard knockdowns in her combos allows her to set up dangerous looping okizeme, making it very possible for her to win the entire round off one touch.
| cons =
* '''Weak Ground Game:''' Kyoko is not particularly well-equipped to play at further distances on the ground, which often forces her into the skies, leaving her open to anti-airs or aerial intercepts by smart opponents.
* '''Limited Combo Routes:''' While Kyoko's combo damage is quite high, her grounded chain options are highly limited, making her options for confirming combos a little more specific than she would often like.
