KOF XIII 4th |OT| Thread:Console countdown edition (UPDATE 10/4 1st page)

i actually thought joe was high tier before people even started using him in arcade. now with buffed TK, faster NM, maxcancelable screw and EXscrew hes probably even top tier now.

as for mai, she needs her dp ala 95-98, her grab dm from RBS, a dp dm thats the firepillar move from RBS (d-u+C), maybe even an air kachosen, command normal like f+B overhead and her 02 air command moves. id main her if she had all this or was closer to her 97/98 version.

p.s. goro and clarck need more moves.

I'm also surprised his Rapid Punch didn't got nerfed as Ralfs. I'm still confused on the reason for Ralfs Rapid Punch getting nerfed. =/

To me it makes perfect sense. Ralf's multipunch range is ridiculous, plus, due to his size, it is not as easy to counter from the air as it looks like. Sometimes you just try to jump and attack over it and it just hits you.
Joe's on the other hand doesn´t have those properties, very little range, plus, it is a move that you are supposed to continue  with (or at least have the option to).
I still think Mai and Kensou have improved more than Joe, cause I think he was extrematelly underrated.
He has improved, but he was already good to begin with, at least to me.

I foresaw a lot of Joes to begin with because he's freaking Joe.

Amen to that, brother.
OSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHAAAAAAAA!!!!

If Mai played closer to her RBS version with her fan rekka and that unblockable SDM, she'd be the shit.

Although I prefer RB2 Mai. Dat P-Power, too good.

I don't think she needs that shitty dp flipkick move though, that thing sucked.

Shiranui Ninja posted in Spek that KOF XIII is playable at the GAMEFEST 2011 in Madrid, Spain.
Bandai Namco are the ones showing it since they will handle the distribution in Spain.
So this weekend people in Spain and France will be able to test the game.
Good, more exposure to KOF III in Europe.

'95 dp fire flying kick wasn't shit. It was first anti-air move for Mai. A classic one! But yes, I agree with you. I prefer a new KOF Mai closer to her RB encarnations

That's right ^_^
I'm happy about that, because RSG denied coming to Gamefest, so it's a big surprise. Too bad I can't go to Madrid this weekend. But I hope some Spek people can go there and give it a try.

Being a Joe player from back in the day, I wish he had his old finishers to his Bakuretsuken > fairly safe overhead or kick after confirm. Was great being able to use the overhead after the minimum amount of punches as a surprise - I remember being able to super-cancel that in a few of the previous KOFs.

I agree that he's decent in XIII, but given the priority/range on his normals, it takes a darn good amount of skill to play him effectively. Have not seen anyone dominate consistently with him other than Haregoro... Also from what I've seen in console videos, what they did with Tiger Knee is just right IMO (quick with  or a bit more invincible with  ,but not crackingly so as we saw in XII).

I'm happy Mai was improved, but it REALLY would have been nice if she was given an additional special
Not something like an anti-air like she had in other renditions as that would totally change her play style, maybe a throw or a launcher with the fan.
