Not broken...

Punishable rekkas means no Fei Long bull shit.

Can't wait for the legion of old school/fanboy Iori players.

Actually, this might be one of the first times I might consider putting him on one of my main teams, hehheh. I classically hadn't because i felt he was too strong (and too popular) in previous renditions and always sided with his underdog rival, Kyo instead. (will def be using EX Kyo :} )

I'm sure Iori, will still find some really good damage output combos, but will be a whole different game with the change in his rekkas. At least he still has lots of easy hit confirms.

I'd be pretty interested in seeing some flame vs claw matchups.

Does Ya Otome > Saika do more dmg than EX Ya Otome?

darkTown2 · November 18, 2011, 10:59:59 PM

there really isn't much of a way to tell since we don't have access to him, but i would think so since you can't max cancel it while you can do that with ex ya otome

Yeah I agree with this. Also don't have access, but nothing in all of the footage on flame iori I've seen does this.
Atlus/SNKP/DDTC combo vids don't show it, so I'm pretty confident saika's not max cancellable.

Just to clarify something you can delay the hits between each rekka however it doesn't seem like it has the same desired effect like in the old skool KoFs where the rekka animation will slow down.

Does anyone have an actual clue of when Iori (Flames) will be released? I'm in need of a third character and I'm thinking him.

If I remember right, December 8th.

Hey, you might be right, I can't remember. I know it's after NEC and I think before SCR that he comes out so...that gives you a week time frame to go with.
