Ness vs King K. Rool

In the matchup against King K. Rool, Ness should leverage his PK Fire to zone and rack up damage, as it can disrupt K. Rool's attempts to approach and is difficult for him to escape once caught. Be mindful of K. Rool's armor on his attacks and use Ness's air mobility to avoid his heavy hits, especially when he tries to land with his down air. When K. Rool uses his crown or his belly armor, look for openings to punish with Ness's aerials or his back throw near the ledge, as it's a reliable kill option. Positioning yourself at mid-range will allow you to effectively use PK Thunder for recovery while also keeping K. Rool at bay.
