Lmao - i don't have to qoute him, the one i am referring too knows that i am talking to him - guess why, because only he wrote such a stupid comment. And by ''you guys'' i am OBVIOUSLY talking to the ones who agreed with him. Did you agree with him? No? Did i taged your Name? No? Then you don't have to feel addressed...
King makes for a good matchup for Sanji given he’s a mid air combatant and I’d love to see Sanji get a proper mid air fight before the series ends as he’s pretty good at it and has only gotten better with the RS but I’m not really on the Sanji v King hype train
King seems to be a swordsman even if he’s an hybrid type so I think it makes sense for him to be matched up against Zoro particularly from a progression stand point for him. Zoro’s dream is to become the WSS so I think it’s important he faces powerful swordsmen & overcomes them. Moreover, King seems to be a very nasty opponent for Zoro even more so than he’d be for Sanji imo, so he makes for a bigger hurdle. Also, as opposed to Luffy who always gets progression with his dream. I feel like we don’t really see much of that with Zoro ^^’ I feel we got a lot more of that early on pre-ts but I’m hopefully he gets some this arc.
- King uses fire like Sanji so it feels a bit bland for me. As that bit doesn’t really feel like an obstacle for Sanji to overcome as their abilities basically cancel each other out. Tho I guess if Sanji unlocks hotter flames (e.g. black/blue etc.) it could be very interesting. But in the same vein Zoro learning how to cut fire would also be very interesting. Plus King’s fire would be more of an obstacle for Zoro than it’d Sanji.
- Ryuma being nicknamed ‘King’ in monsters, which referred to him as the strongest Swordsman at the time & then we coincidentally have a ‘King’ character on Wano who given his position in the Beast Pirates is most likely the strongest swordsman on Wano,
All in all I personally think Queen is a more interesting character + opponent for Sanji so I’m pro Sanji v Queen :p. Can’t really knock those of you that wanna see Sanji v King as I think one could make a case for it too ^^.

Even without the suit I don' t think Sanji will be affected by fire given he can combust at will lolz but yh the suit will only make him even more resistant to fire than he already is. I'd also like to see a very challenging fight for Sanji and I feel Queen more so than King will be able to give him that with his lethal plagues & the way he is built like a tank (never seen a branchiosauraus that buff lolz) so his physical strength and durability are probably no joke. Plus Queen's reach is also pretty long as he has a long neck and there's his mysterious artificial arm as well 
. In a fight like that, Sanji's speed and reaction time, CoO and even his AP will all be put to the test and will probably be forced to take it up a notch. Sanji's invisibility could also potentially be countered with a lethal gas type plague so this matchup is personally a lot more appealing for me than the King one.

If you want to mostly comment on the recent anime episode and those developments, please do so in the designated thread for them. Keep things closer towards the OP and be civil.
OT:
King still fights Zoro.
Queen still fights Sanji.
Jack still fights Sulong Dukes.

It's Wano. Everyone has a sword. That's kinda irrevalant motive especially the Beast Pirates don't see worth in him compare to major members they got info on like Luffy, Kidd, Law, Sanji (As SB/SM), and so on while Zoro been pushed more to take out Orochi on his end. Seems to make sense on writing wise. He isn't going to get one-shot from one attack even if Zoro hits him. Zoro on other hand has bad history with tricky DF and only way he handle someone at that tier if he has a lot of backup as his fight history this arc been disappointing to take him seriouslyy on it.
Orochi previously had Kyoshiro guard him from danger. With the Denjiro reveal and the lack of a bodyguard, who do you think will be around to ensure the safety of Orochi's person? Queen's a possibility, but Queen has greater parallels to Sanji (Scientist who uses technology, smoker, womanizer) whereas King has been portrayed as the Zoro of the two. It's likely that to take down Orochi, who so far hasn't shown to be an adept fighter, defeating King will be the requirement.
True, but still doesn't mean Orochi isn't incapable of fighting as with his DF if true to the lore, he could be great counter to many samurai and swordsmen like Zoro.
Sanji though isn't pure technology and using RS more stealth-wise than advance expert in using technology and it's more suit style like King's suit, so it's more possibility he can face King still. Let's not rule any out as it could be surprise all around on what fights can take place.
