This MU is actually good for Ken imo. Might be one of the hardest MUs for Aigis outside of Mitsuru.

-Your 5B handles her approach if she's dashing in pretty well, even if she goes high. Sure, you can't convert off of it, but you force her to make a decision as she's landing.

-Her reversal options are garbage against Ken. Once you go in, just go ham at a distance and don't let up.

-2C goes underneath her ground gatling gun, and beats missile launcher if they do it from full screen.

-2B is a pain, yes. But if you call it out with 236A+B on reaction, you can make it merely a waste of her precious bullets.

-Your 2B is decent-ish against her pressure once she's in, since it's stubby vertical range suddenly doesn't matter.

-Charging Star super bodies Koromaru, especially SB. If she has the meter to OMC after it, she can go for a mix up as well. If not, be sure to punish it.

-Your j.A and j.5B are strong in this MU, but be wary of her command grab super in the air. A good Aigis will know how to use this to make you afraid to taking to the air, despite you beating her ranges.

-Your DP is pretty decent in this MU as well, especially if you feel like she's going to try and put you into a TK command grab set up.

-As always, watch the jets. Best advice I can give someone whose confused by what Aigis does.

Overall, I'd say this MU is 6-4 in Ken's favor. Just be careful about whiffing 236A/B, or being too predictable with it in neutral, as she can punish you for it.
