Orochinagi’s Dark Chaotix has blessed us with a KOFXIV Demo, Kyo Kusanagi combo video!
Here are his notes found in the description section:
Kyo took me a while to complete. Kept coming up with different variations so meant making updated combos. I’m sure there is still some more options but I think i covered most of them.
Linking his SDM with dp can be difficult. Holding the button on his orochinagi DM still works (as shown with the 5 hit combo, you have to hold the button). Letting go of the button at the right time will net you the right hit to extend the combo.
Bruno_kof_13 just uploaded and recorded these 3 new videos of combos you can do with Kyo and Bao! The combos range in difficulty, either very easy bread-n-butter type combos, easy super cancels, then progress to much longer BC/Max Mode combos! Kyo’s video features a few double Max Mode combos that deal massive damage. If you are looking for useful combo ideas, or a challenge, try a few of these out in practice mode!
“It’s been almost a year since I’ve completed EX Kyo and felt it’s the time to finish up his normal version. He has a ton of combo potential but sadly the damage he does is quite low compared to many other characters, making it difficult to be stylish and still reach 100% damage. Luckily I’ve still been able to reach 100% damage while making each combo unique. Along with a ton of combo potential also comes ease of execution. Kyo’s combos are quite easy to perform, other than two things. One, if you perform his ground super and hold the button for 1/3 of a second, the super will start up much quicker than usual, being able to connect it from juggles that you normally can’t. Most (if not all) of the ground supers in the combo video uses this method because it’s needed in order to hit. And two, Kyo can repeat his qcf B move six times on an opponent but the timing is so difficult that you’d probably have to have the hands of a robot to get all six reps. Normally it would be an infinite but for some odd reason the seventh hit will always whiff.”
The description of the video has more of his notes and combo notation transcripts of all the combos that you see in the video!
GuttsCL recently recorded and uploaded a few very interesting mid-screen and corner only single stock and drive gauge combos, along with a few powerful 2 stock combos using 1 drive cancel or more. If you’re a XIII Kyo player, try out a few of these combos for yourself and discuss if any of them are useful in battle or not.
