Console changes

  • s.B adjusted. Compared to the arcade, Kula now moves forward giving the move greater range.
  • Recovery on df.B improved
  • EX Ray Spin no longer invincible
  • EX Ray Spin Sit recovery improved
  • EX Diamond Edge is faster
  • Freeze execution adjusted. Faster and follow-up hitbox improved.
  • EX Counter shell has a stronger hitbox

Producer Yamamoto: '"Both supers expending 2 meters have become more powerful. Both make Kula invincible and are good for interrupting opponents or as anti-airs. Her use of meter has increased, so she has become a character that will test meter management skills. It may be fun using the wire damage on counter hit on her EX counter shell."'

Gameplay Overview

Having the most potent anti-projectile skills in the game, Kula excels at dealing with zoners. Her Counter Shell is capable of reflecting almost all projectiles, including level 1 and 2 DMs (multi-hitting or otherwise, without requiring EX!), though precise timing is required to make the most of this risky skill. Ray Spin's forward+B followup projectile will also cut through almost all single hit projectiles (including DMs) in the game. Though not able to control space as well as previous KOF games, her speed, excellent hitconfirms and corner-carrying combos make her a strong competitor.

Pros

As noted above, Kula's anti-projectile game is second to none. If the player's reactions are fast enough they can reflect or counter almost all projectiles thrown at them, however there are risks which are explained in the cons section. It should be noted that Kula's taunt also blocks projectiles and recovers fairly quickly, though frame data for it isn't available yet.

She was given generous hitconfirms, namely st.C (2 hit), st.C->f+A and cr.Bx2 st.B. These allow her ample time to decide the best course of action, be it a simple bnb or a full HD combo.

She is able to convert many specials into combos, especially in the corner. Ray Spin, Diamond Breath and Counter Shell (on counter hit) can act as stand alone combo starters.

Her combos can carry from corner to corner.

B. 'Nuff said. (Just kidding, see the Normals section).

Cons

Her Counter Shell can be baited and punished. Predictable use of it can lead to a world of hurt.

A relatively weak anti-air game. Her Crow Bites move her forward and have enormous recovery on block or whiff. Her cr.C is -17 on block or whiff, making it full combo punishable. This is especially dangerous versus characters with high jump arcs like Benimaru and Athena where the opponent may crossup while being too high for cr.C to hit.

Accidental inputs, notably Slider Shoot when being crossed up, can result in suicide.
