Description[]
Executed by pressing Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick simultaneously (or pressing Drive Impact for Modern Control), Ken steps forward for a hook using his front hand.
Tactics[]
Like all Drive Impacts, Flame Strike has 2-hits of armor during the startup frames. This makes it useful to absorb the opponent's attacks and retaliating as they are recovering. Hitting the opponent with Flame Strike as a Punish Counter puts them crumple state on hit, giving Ken enough time to start a damaging combo. In the middle of the screen, this move can push the opponent back on block. This allows Ken to create separation and maintain offensive pressure with fireballs.
