The King of Fighters '94

OverviewStrategyDataCombos


Introduction

KOF's iconic main character making his debut appearance. Didn't get bodega until 96 so he's a pretty standard shoto here.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Has a TOD and can route into it off a lot of common hits
  • Has uniquely strong mixup options, including an unreactable standing overhead, corner crossups, and a standing low
  • Has a solid fireball-and-uppercut game, good midrange pokes, and good movement, making him versatile in neutral
  • Two excellent guard cancel options with a 1f invuln dp and a partially-invincible flying kick
  • Can't reliably convert from outside cl.C range

Hits crouchers on frame 15. Very fast overhead, good for keeping people honest and getting an extra bit of damage. There might be some potential for conversions off it if it hits meaty, but this needs to be tested further.

Excellent combo filler move. 2B > cl.C (link or charge cancel) > 421D provides a stun which can be looped into the same combo again for a stun loop TOD. If you convert into this move in a situation where it won't stun, you still get amazing corner carry, solid damage, and oki.

Using it in neutral is a meme. The invuln might make it useful as a guard cancel, though this requires further investigation.

101-112 Mid N/A 35 11 28 KD (+83) -2 2-31 above shins

Has a boatload of invulnerability plus a large disjointed hitbox that destroys fireball. If you're sitting on MAX Mode or have low health, you can just kinda throw this out as a haymaker/anti-fireball. Its safety, big hitbox, and high damage make it hard to contest at its ideal ranges.
