Kyo Kusanagi (Console)

[Sharnt]

I think Kyo's EX Orochinagi should be mentioned. A 2f super that deals so much damage and that has so much range is just way too good. A lot of things that usually are safe aren't against Kyo because of that super.

That super really is my main reason for maining Kyo instead of NESTS Kyo. While that's just me, I think that difference between the two characters should be mentioned, because it's IMO a significant one.

It's THE MAIN difference between the 2 Kyo and the reason why Kyo is the best char of the game.

Hey I'm trying to relearn Kyo so does anyone know any frametrap? I'm trying to apply it to my game to stop people mashing buttons like Ralf or Iori. Thanks

d.B,s.C works wonderfully

[DJMirror949]

Greetings,

I, the Great Dark Hero, have recently created a forum at SRK for Kyo Kusanagi summarizing his abilities with the help of fellow SRK members.
Source: http://shoryuken.com/forum/index.php?threads/regular-kyo-kusanagi.164378/

Here you may find and provide very valuable information that will help players become successful. If there are any discrepancies, feel free to notify us so they we can make the following corrections.
Kyo Kusanagi is and always will be consistent fighting game character! "Heh heh, Moetaru...?"
What should be understood is that Kyo has some really crazy combo's after launching the opponent into the air and has one of the DM's in the game, that which can also be utilized easily in mid-air to beat out air-to-air combative opponents.
Kyo has everything a player needs to win.

I got a feeling I should too. Kyo is a beast and I am proud to admit it!

interesting reset..
wall
cl. + qcf+ rdp+ qcf+ rdp+ cl. (then rdp+ -whiff-.. or hcb+ )
if the opp was guarding you will throw him..if he not.. he will eat cl. ..(in case you used the EX command throw it will whiff but i don't think  opp will stand without guarding or doing reversal..)

[solidshark]

A discovery made by AmedoS310:

There's something unique about both Kyos' CD whiff cancels. Thier CD can be buffered in special moves, so that CD comes out first then whiff cancel into moves like qcf+C/AC or hcb+D. The buffer inputs are qcf+CD/ACD and hcb+CD.

That's sort of old information...CD whiff cancelling is pretty common.

[PureYeti]

Everyone can cancel their CD. You don't have to buffer input it either

[selfReg]

I think he's just trying to explain the fact that it CAN be buffered into the motion, sort of like a shortcut.

Yes. That's basically it. The fact that Kyo is the only character that can whiff cancel his cd with one buffered motion is unique, if not anything else.
