Training Room / Re: How to compose a team

« on: February 22, 2012, 11:10:50 PM »

Hey guys,

I feel like I'm starting to get the fundamentals, and I think I've got a basic understanding of making a KoFXII team. The formula I've kind of concluded works the best is having a strong meterless character on point with a second character to cover the firsts bad match ups and an anchor that can abuse meter.

I've got a preference for grapplers/power characters, I tend to prefer short combos, not necessarily easy ones (I can hit hard links, I'm a Honda player) I'm just more of a poke and look for an opportunity to command throw sort of player.

The team I've got so far is

Clark / xxx / Goro

I'm uncertain about a second, I had Mr. Karate for a while (I see him a lot of stream) but he didn't do a lot for me. 
I feel Clark can be a real nuisance on point and Goro seems to be the strongest grappler in the game if he can come in and go to work.

Hey S4b1n, welcome to DC

Didn't realize we had a seen in OZ, always good to hear.

There's lotsa peeps who can help if you have any questions here.

Enjoy!

Thanks, I picked up the game because it looked interesting (wasn't involved in a scene at the time) but I've been made aware there is quite a fighting community locally. Capcom games in particular get a ton of support in Australia despite the small population and nonexistent arcade scene. Encouragingly KoFXIII had a good amount of entrants at the OHNX tournament held recently.

Starting with the basics first, where would I ask team building questions?

Also, having re-read my initial post, I didn't dislike 98, it was a fun game, just no one playing it at the time. XII was the game that made me doubt XIII, but so far I'm very glad I've picked it up.

Hey guys,

Sabin41/S4b1n, regular SRK troll, stream monster, Australian and all those other negative connotations.

Just got into KoFXIII, I've only ever played '98 and XII which I bought for $12 from a bargain bin and was disappoint. So far I'm really digging KoFXIII, most improved title ever? I'd say so. I joined the forums to try learn more about the game, and the characters.

Loving Goro and Clark so far.

I've played most fighters since the 16 bit era, I particularly enjoy SFII+III and the Guilty Gear series.
