Kyo Kusanagi / Re: Kyo Combo's
« on: July 26, 2016, 01:17:29 AM »
This is what I've been doing for a 2 bar, haven't seen this exact version pop up in the thread yet

cl. C, df+D (2 hit) BC cl. D, f+B, rdp+BD, qcf+B,B, dp+C (SC) qcfx2+P

lets you fit the EX red kick in while still having enough max meter for the max super at the end. Orochinagi should do more damage at the end instead of the qcfx2 super but my execution for it isn't quite there yet so I just stick with this.

Loving Angel, I'm pretty new to KoF in general but she does indeed look like her old self, definitely gonna be a main for me just like i planned. I do wish her climax would have been the full People's Elbow again, but oh well....

Ramon's looking great too!

King and Angel for sure. 3rd spot is undecided and i'm waiting to see the remaining characters first, but Luong or Zarina are looking pretty likely for now.

Plus Leona/Mature/Vice/Shun'ei/Ramon/possibly Mian fitting in there as alts from time to time

I'm pretty happy with Zarina, albeit not really impressed. I was hoping for a capoeira character, I got a capoeira character, so no complaints. Just kinda wish she stood out more, as it is she's not really doing much we haven't seen with other characters in other games.

Training Room / New to KoF, where to begin?
« on: May 17, 2016, 06:08:57 PM »
So I'm finally diving into KoF because 14 is looking fantastic so far and I'm hoping to get into some of the older stuff before it drops, but I'm not really sure where to begin, so I've got a couple (disorganized) questions.

I know 98, 2k2, and XIII are basically THE KoF games for the most part, but I'm kind of undecided on which one to get into, what are the main pros and cons of each one?  I've spent some time in training in each one, so I've got a basic understanding of the mechanical differences, but I'm kinda curious how much they vary in terms of speed, damage, emphasis on combos, emphasis on footsies, etc., or if any stand out as particularly beginner-friendly for someone new to the franchise. TBH I'm kind of leaning towards 2k2 solely for the roster but I don't want that to be the only reason.

Netcode is another big concern. I've heard mixed things about XIII's netcode, but is it overall playable for the most part, at least if you stick to good connections? Also the Steam versions of 98UM/2k2UM, are they decent for netplay? I'd prefer to stick with them if possible, but if not I know the vanilla versions on fightcade are always an option.

I've had a few more questions as well but they're slipping my mind atm, will probably have more as time goes on too, I'm just kinda curious if there's a consensus on the best starting point or if it's mostly just a matter of opinion.
