BoxeR-King teaches you how to preform instant Shining Wizard in Tekken 7: Fated Retribution

For King players, the screw attack system in Tekken 7 is something for rejoicing. In the past, King players had to end their combos with the difficult instant Shining Wizard, or iSW, for max damage. Now, in most combos, SW is now very easy to execute due to the distance which Screw Attacks create. However! As BoxeR-King demonstrates, that doesn’t mean you should ignore the high-execution technique of iSW completely.

Not only does iSW still give you the pressure of King’s exceptional grab mixup game, but it’s also a valuable combo ender off of King’s counterhit FF+1, a new property to Tekken 7 for the masked wrestler. So maybe you don’t need iSW to end your hopkick juggles anymore, but the benefits of iSW are still great, and BoxeR-King’s tutorial will help make the input much easier for you.
