KOF XIII 6th General Thread: Console Released edition

[Reiki.Kito]

I'm wondering when DLC for KoF comes up.

Guys, do update if PSN has updated it, can't wait to get my hands on them.

The PSN is usually updated around 6pm Central. We're getting Kyo with the Power of Fire Punches and Mr. Karate today.

Ugh, no way! That's so late in the day!

This is why I love Xxenace... but, real talk, Genesis is the best console. Blast processing!

[ELTRO]

Oh Snap old school console vs current gen console!?!?!?!

So Xxenace is a Sexbox fanboy. And Genesis does what Nintendon't. I like this forum all the more everyday . Genesis had better action games and beat 'em ups. It seems like people prefer the SNES more if they love RPG's....

Anyway...

Legit question: How do you get out of Yuri's Dive Kick setups? Especially if it's Clark vs Yuri. Because Clark doesn't have a good AA he can do on reaction and that Dive Kick has a huge hitbox and equally huge hit and block stun. I was playing KimKaphan last night and he nailing me with her Dive Kicks and then during a crossup Dive Kick. I also didn't realize that Yuri's EX Grab seems to AA and will hit you if you short hop.

jump up back cd if only he's abusing it. Her Ex command throw is a reversal. You can block it but I don't think you can punish it unless you have charged his ex Gatling gun ready. I think she gets pushed back to far for command throw punish. Also I think you get free command throw if you block dive kick above the head. Dunno if this will work since I'm just theory fighting. Hopefully this will help.

Edit: tried it and it doesn't work. the push block is too big.

What about Clark's df+A? Too slow?

Most likely it'll get stuffed and if the dive kick crosses up it won't auto correct.

Thanks dude. Gonna' try that out. I was playing him online so maybe it was just that little bit of delay made the dive kick gdlk (which tends to happen a lot online in my experience in 3S) but I never played a good Yuri online or offline so who knows.

Got Mr. Karate. Mixed feelings overall. He has really safe pressure strings with crD into Fireball and crB into Fireball. It seems like he can tick into his Throw like Clark's B SAB but not nearly as good, but mixing that up with his crB spam might make it pretty scary.

Haven't explored his counters or EX Counter at all. The window to hit them after a regular counter seems really tight. His air tatsu isn't safe at all. But backdashing into it seems pretty sweet.

Mixed feeling because... I don't know. Odd vibes I guess. He's definitely gonna' be top but I guess feel mixed about him because I don't know how good I can be with him. If that makes any sense.

ehy guys i know it could seems weird since the dlc characters r out from just yesterday but do u think  a petition with a list of ur favs characters for next dlcs would have any sense ? im not even sure there ll be others dlcs but lots of players r still pissed off about some legends not included in the game like b.mary yamazaki kasumi and lots more. so if on the other side ppl ask and writes petition to have megaman why wouldnt we send a message to snkp letting them know new cracaters would be very welcome ?
hope this was not too much OT or too stupid as a fan and player request but some of u have contacts with snkp so just why dont set a list ?
