Description[]
Executed by performing a quarter-circle back motion and pressing Heavy Punch (or Heavy Attack for Modern Control), A.K.I. spins and swings her arm downward to quickly creates a big bubble of poison. She then spins away from the bubble as it pops just as quickly.
Tactics[]
In contrast to her many long-range attacks, Toxic Wreath is a close-range attack mainly used to extend juggle combos thanks to its high launch. It can be linked from any of her normals or from her Hun Dun target combo. Using it with her Medium or Heavy attacks creates a true blockstring that pushes the opponent back. It is -4 on block, making it difficult for the opponent to punish due to the pushback. Hitting the opponent with Toxic Wreath puts the opponent in a poisoned state, thus setting them up for a Toxic Blossom effect.
