So Im building a Ken deck.

I want to use Ken 4 Because of his hand size.

The Resources Im relying on are Fire and i think emptiness or void? its the black one.

I have Tons Of cards with him on them and some that dont.

I would Like to build a Deck that utilizes lots of cards with him on it but i want it to be good.

I have his Special

Shoryureppa (x2)

Kens Hadouken (x2)

And many more cards just need help knowing what to put in!

Please guys Im new and im just getting destroyed with what i have right now!

Well, if you're playing 4.Ken, then you're building a Legacy deck? (This version of Ken isn't legal in the Current Standard Format)...

Depending upon which Format you're building him for will determine what to use.

Well I dont mind using any Ken Because I only have a proxy ken right now...

I just need some guidance i have tons of cards from the local store.

I Can make any type of deck I plan on just playing at The local store not in tourneys so As long as it works and works well it can be legacy or any type.

Couldn't give you any meaningful advice in terms of legacy or Ken4, but if you want to try building the new promo Ken6 I've had a wacky idea floating around my head for a little bit...

1) Soften up the opponent a bit with attacks of choice

2) Get out Seal of Cessation (or Bedlam/Malice) to give your Ken Death (or Evil/Chaos)

3) Play Zhao Daiyu's Poison Touch in combination with Ken's form to either kill them, or put them very close to death while leveling their staging area for easy finishing.

Crazy stuff, but Ken6 is good in general, as is Seal of Cessation, and you could probably get away with running only 2 of the Poision Touch and using it just as an epic late-game backup plan. Probably best built off of earth so you can chain Rashotep or Ragnar attacks into the touch of death.

*edit* Actually, come to think of it this earth Ken 6 touch of death thing could be more than some wacky joke deck, prehaps even actually pretty good. You also get access to some good Zasalamel and Hugo support which happen to have death if you needed to Hulking Brute something in the midst of your attack chain to draw some cards on your touch turn. Earth is good at dealing damage but sometimes has a hard time getting all the way, so the touch thing actually becomes a mildly reasonable plan @_@

If you use the Seal of Malice you'll have access to Nefarious Deeds, that way if you play another Touch you can ready Ken and burn for more. Also you can throw some Demon's Scourge to increase the burn. Crazy stuff.

So I am definately building a legacy deck.

At the moment Im trying to build my deck so it all revolves around increasing the speed of my attacks and then using that speed to do other things.

For instance In My deck now im using adoration and admiration to gain health while making my attacks almost unblockable.

I also am using specials of kens that increase there speed in the card like : Shoryureppa, Shinryuken, Flaming Shoryuken And Kens close fierce punch.

Im also using ken's hadoken to increase my hand size.

Any other cards that would help to make this deck better would be appreciated.

I want to most of my foundations under 3 difficulty and over 5 check.

Okay then...looks like 4.Ken built off Fire?

In that case, look at using Unrequited Love with Senkyutai with Deceptive Look. Throw in Kung Fu Training for good measure, and you got a one-shot kill condition. Couple that with the action side of Cobra Blow and you got silly Speed Hackery!

Hope this helps some.

Thanks man those are great Now I just gotta locate some.

are there any other foundations like deceptive look that make my Attack = my speed or something similar?

Also wondering if there are any more speed boost cards from preferably street fighter I have:

Take you all on And Adoration.

Im trying to get more foundations that run better.

I also was wondering if theres any cards similar to holding ground and light on one's feet That are fire and preferably street fighter.

SO THIS IS MY UPDATED DECK!! still looking for input!!

Ive basically put in what i have I have to locate the proxy's Just wonderng what i could change Im trying to base it on speed,

Character: Ken 5

Attacks:

Nisho Kyaku (x2)

Shinryuken (x3)

Ken's Close Fierce Punch (x4)

Shoryureppa (x3) (1 proxy)

Knee Toss (x4)

Ken's Hadoken (x2)

Flaming shoryuken (x1) (proxy)

Zessho Hoho (x1)

Foundations:

Art of shotokan (x2)

Deceptive look (x3) (all proxy)

Bounce back (x2)

Adoration (x4) (1 proxy)

Take you all on (x4)

Masterful Duelist (x3)

Admiration (x4) (all proxy)

Cocky (x4)

Merciless (x3)

Do-Gooder (x4)

Elementalist (x3)

Actions:

Block (x4

Characters:

Ken 7 (x1)

I'd look to replace Cocky with White Magic, mainly because it is a 1/5 instead of a 2/5 and is more reliable effect-wise. Also, you could look into Clones, not because of its foundation side necessarily, but because it's a 3df attack with a 5cc, and has a base damage of 5. Ken's Low Roundhouse and Dee Jay's Crouching Roundhouse are also good Fire attacks with nice stats.
