I'm seeing a lot of personal tier lists on twitter. One thing that strikes my attention is that Vanessa is consistently lower than most in the competitive list. Any reason for this?

Is there a mirror somewhere? I can't seem to access SNKP's website for some reason.

Did they ever explain why Vice and Mature are back again?

The last two had me laughing. WP

We all know about Kim and luong.. Gang il looked pretty cool to me. I thought he looked abit bulky to be a taekwondo fighter... was that Kim's d d +K I saw from him!

Yup, he also has Jae Hoon's Shakka-shuu and Dong Hwan's jumping cross up kick.

He also has a 3-hit version of Dong's hcb+C, Kim's old charge d,u+P, his air hangetsuzan, his EX hienzan, and Jae's CD attack as a DM. I'm liking the mix of moves we've actually seen before from the Kim family.

I enjoy doing these combos, unfortunately I couldn't find a situation where "qcb+AC, hop, Overkill" trumped the damage from hcbx2+PP D: I guess you are a little better off on their wakeup, but Overkill isn't a good knockdown either :P Also you can do it anywhere on screen.

Almost a year later, I finally have an answer. Lol. Doing Negative Gain SDM instead of the Overkill string may deal slightly better damage, but it also forces your opponent out of the corner. Doing the Overkill string will keep them in the corner for more pressure. So, it's up to you if you're better off with more damage or more pressure.

While trying to look for the videos for the console changes again, I found this for Yuri (0:28):

Again, not sure about its exact damage but seems to do slightly around 400.

You might find other good combos in the video for this thread but I'm only interested in Yuri at the moment.

Confirming combo. It's 417 damage.

Edit: Shorter combo video than above

PM sent.

Edit: Resolved

Any updates on this? Do I need to PM my local IP address?

Hey guys. Not sure if this is the right place to post this. Apparently, some time around when I was on vacation, my IP was banned. However, my account isn't and I'm pretty sure I haven't done any bannable offenses as I have been away for a long time (nor have I received warnings for them).

Is there a way to lift the ban or make exceptions? I'm currently using a proxy to post this btw.

There is an offline mode in Beta, that is Training Mode. It's the only offline mode there is. However, I don't experience any input delays on my end unless I have way too many programs running in the background. It's quite possible that it's also due to specs.

Played my first 3 bar match on the beta today.  Guy was in New York with average ping of 59ms. It felt really, really good. Barely any discernable input lag. I'm impressed!

As for the KOF moba... Tizoc's ulti looks soooooo cool.

It is impressive! The new update's improved the netcode by a lot, at least on my end. I'm getting speed ups rather than ultra slowdowns. Notably, I'm really only playing 1 bar matches.

Come to think of it, it should be their 20th anniversary next year.
