Vice's Ex splash starts up faster but it only goes half screen.

Oh man my first dream came true. EX Iori is in can't wait. Although they nerfed hcb+k with Kyo, I like that c.b, c.a df+d, qcf+k works mid screen now.

Clark is now top tier.

Autoguard on a command grab? Unthinkable.

Vice had start-up invulnerability on her hcf+P throw in the past. It serves the same purpose, in this case; to give the grappler a reliable reversal tool, and to let them use the throw in situations where they'd normally have no options.

Assuming this has OK range, this should make it so Clark can land his throw after a blockstring, if the opponent tries to hit him. He also gains slight reversal properties in this case.

I'd surmise that the startup might be slowed down though, just as it was with Vice's. There needs to BE a frame that auto-guards, so I'd suspect that the B has startup, but can be used in pressure, while the C variant is probably still semi-instant, but without the guard.

Vice's Ex splash starts up faster but it only goes half screen.

Splash already looked pretty fast, so that's pretty cool to hear. Should be a more effect in-close mixup now, I suppose?

Also, is her Air throw DM EX-able, now?

Thanks for these updates!

Regular splash is slower as well.

Aww, lol. I guess it... evens out?

So much to take in! I think I'll explode from the happiness!

Now I definitely need to buy me a 360 or PS3!

Gamestop has a great deal on a used XBOX 360 comes with a 20 gb hard drive and stuff for a 100 dollars plus tax, its a good investment if you plan to play other games on it too.

i dunno if microsoft is still doing that deal where if you buy a windows 7 pc you get a free xbox you should check and see

Well the arc of the splash is higher.

Andy's s.B -->s.D link now cancels.

Yep, in the same boat.

Gonna get a PS3 once there is confirmation of good netcode. Hopefully the rumor of a $100 price drop is true.

Question in regards to Kensou. Any major changes or did he stay the same? Also for Ralf, any changes?

[LouisCipher]

The changes to Maxima I like, he seemed to have a hard time getting on while jumping so that change will benefit him immensely.

What do you guys mean by Clark having Autoguard on one of his grabs? I'm a little confused.

[HaxMurderer]

Joe has faster NM? Awww man that's gonna get duuuuurtaye.

[Diavle]

He has a guard animation before doing the grab. So he will guard whatever hit is coming and will then throw the opponent right after.

Back from Otakon...

There were 4 big hdtvs for KOF XIII.

The game was being played on Xbox 360.

There were some problems:

No controllers so it was BOYC... and there random outrages only at the kof xiii section... I hope these changes for the tournament tomorrow...

Cool KOF XIII posters were being passed out. I have two but they got in bad shape on the ride home so i plan to get more tomorrow.
