Cmon Oscar, you're still scared of Raiden? lol.

[Zabel]

I've added a new tier to the list, I'm pretty sure some of you will agree with me.

God- Raiden

We are having another AI tourney in a few weeks, there's been an "UNOFFICIAL" soft banned on Raiden for the next tourney. I'm pretty excited on the outcome of this, I'm pretty sure will see different results and maybe even some upsets.

That would be lame if you guys soft ban Raiden.

Yeah Soft Banning Raiden is retarded

What about just banning the dropkick? IDK lol

That's an even dumber suggestion. Just learn the match up & properly bait it.

[TYRANNICAL]

Wait.... shit gets banned in KOF?  That's not console exclusive? Since when?  

Is this Raiden thing an experiment?  I mean KOF has has beast top tiers before.  And according to what Kane posted in the comments to a KOF XIII AI vid, weren't the people there coming up with anti-Raiden strats?

Agreed, I'd rather see people think of ways to get around it than just flat out banning the dude out of frustration, it's kinda weak

I was just throwing shit out there rofl.

Isn't lvl4 drop kick is safe on block? so whats the point in baiting it?  Looks way to hard to wiff punish, since it throws Raiden on the other side of the screen and he recovers super fast.

I'd like to see these anti-raiden strats as well.

[PureYeti]

I assuming the soft ban will be only one dropkick instead of two?

that's lame too... soft ban something like this is just retarded..i can understand ban infinites but a legit combo? lol

[TornAparT]

to the people who have actually played this game extensively, what are your thoughts on this?

[Flowtaro]

this talk of softbanning Raiden is disgraceful


people wonder why there is no KoF scene in America, lol, here it is


i honestly expected better from AI



step up your game

[TYRANNICAL]

This actually has nothing to do with why there isn't a scene in America.  What are you talking about?

I don't condone the banning of Raiden.  I think he'll need to be reworked for the next patch, but I'll deal with it for now.

[THE ANSWER]

I apologize, it seams that I've used the banning term too looseley. Raiden will NOT be banned at the upcoming tournament, let's just say you won't see him in action.
