At the Eye of The Ragin Storm Part II-Out with VCRs, in with DVD recorders!

I <3 u. Now give me mod status :lovin:

It’s not. His j.E is pretty much the same as his j.D, except that it’s way faster and has far more priority.

It’s actually a shame Adel doesn’t have coffin kick. Shit is too pimp.

Torn Apart: Also, try landing a df.A (iirc it’s a kick similar to st.E but slower) on a jump-happy Maxima. I’m not sure how good the priority is, but if you land it, you can hitconfirm into either a D genocide cutter (you’ll chase after him as he’s falling and hit), C kaiser wave, or even an LDM if you’re using him as leader. That particular kick allows you a free juggle on hit.

any chance for KOFXII on 360?

Good shit Arturo!!! :lovin: Congratulations on the mod status…***.good thing now Emil cant go on like normal lol.


I will also archive that stuff Azagtoth posted under Adelheid and Eiji.

Well I just have my encoder all the vids…he says the MEXICO FOOTAGE COULD BE READY BY Wednesday…

If he’s that fast then think I may have the best encoder of them all!!!

Take out the trash, Arturo! :rofl:

oh alright, i’ll make sure to keep that in mind. I got KoFXI at home so i’ll practice that df.A stuff. I’m thinking about switching Eiji or Duck for Gai. My Gai used to be pretty good, but since I haven’t use him in a while ive become quite crappy with him so i need the practice.

Haha if you switch out Duck for Gai you’ll essentially be playing my one of my teams. =P

Gai brings the pain, but make sure he’s first. He does much better as a battery IMO (I use his ranbu super sparingly, since he already does absurd damage without it). He’s also an excellent quickshift starter. Also, a friendly tip: be very wary of grapplers; command grabs can heavily limit the usefulness of his dodge setups (particularly those involving Gai Spider), so he’s left to play more of a distanced poking game for those matchups.

Forgive me if I’m going over shit you already know, I just miss playing this game. :frowning:

I’d say keep Duck though, since he’s a tad bit more solid, but do what you feel: they’re both great characters.

oh not a problem at all! Gai info is quite scarce and i haven’t found too many Gai videos on youtube as well. But yeah, he is one hell of a QS starter. He does a good amout of stun damage as well. So Gai/Adelheid, Gai/Duck, Duck/Adelheid QS combos will do the job nicely :wgrin:.

Gai is one of my favorite characters. I pretty much had to learn him without knowing any information about him (like combos, strategies, etc.). I really hope Gai and Silver are in KoFXII, but I have a feeling that they wont be back.:sad:

BTW, you or anyone got any Gai strats? i know a little, but any other info would be help-full.

To be honest, I’ve been playing Yuri a lot more than Gai in my team for a long while, but I think DG has an archive of my old Gai strats and combos (if not, DG, I think they’re in the old KOFXI strats thread in the other games section).

For now, post what you know and we’ll work it out. If anything I’ll give the game a run sometime soon and see what I can remember.

Yeah got them…I’ll pick them all up tomororw as soon as I get the time etc.

Pepe and Taekua have some pretty good Gais too…uh oh…MEXICO FOOTAGE HYPE!!! ITS COMING!!!

well, i know that you can tick throw or combo into Gai Spider off of st.A or st.B. I always do cr.D into Sway. Same with his E attack. One thing I sometimes do is HH.B, st.D,f+D,sway,f+A/B then tick into Gai Spider. Depending on who im playing, I use his Sway as an AA lol. my BnB with Gai is j.B,st.D,f+D,f,b,uf. If i wanna QS, i usually do it at the b or uf part depending on what kinda combo i wanna do.

…Actually, there isn’t much I can add to that, except that AA swaying is alright as long as you’re careful not to let faster characters like Kim bait you into eating throws all day.

Try using df as a string ender every so often as a means to continue pressuring. You can either go for a throw (for instance, df, then sway -> gai spider if you anticipate that they’ll either block or try to throw something out), go for a mixup, or just reset your string with st.D, fwd.D.

Also remember that frog drop has it’s uses as well (ducks under plenty of pokes), and you can enter it from a sway, but it suffers the same weakness as the sway itself (IE it’s very susceptible to throws and command throws, even if he’s already on the floor).

yea sounds good. Somtimes i’ll use f as an ender as well.

Someone tell DG to archive the Gai strats me and Azagtoth came up with!

I’m already on that trust me…I’ll also keep you all updated on the vid situation as things seem to be moving rather smoothly!!!

Guys just made a new/revised Tier List section and updated Waku Waku 7 wth a revised tier list in it as well!!

Its funny but Alfred in Real Bout 2 the hidden character reminds me SOOOO much of Rai in Waku Waku 7…

Didnt Rai come before Alfred? Thats what I thought too!!

SBO EDIT- I just thought of something guys…why is it you think if the went back to 98 because of UM…why is it we haven’t seen something like Garou MOTW at SBO? What do you think it would take for us to have Garou at SBO?

Also Torn Apart- I directed a SoCal player to your thread and to you…have you had any success tracking him down?

**Season II EDIT- **The NEC8 20072008 thread is up and running!!! Yes it’s time to already start hyping it up…it’s less than THREE months away!!!

Im not sure S-class should have Rasputin in it, as the other two characters you have in S-class cannot beat him (not even a scrubby him). He should be SS-class.

Hey anyone, when does 98 UM come out?

Also, does anyone know anything about that memory card that allows you to play imports on ps2?

Keits…you are right…they can’t beat him…or they CAN…but its VERY difficult…I have ideas though believe it or not I do…

I will put Rasputin in SS class until otherwise proven!! I bet Brocken gives him problems!!

Slide- We dont have a confirmed date I believe for UM…I do believe it will be out by the time NEC8 comes though… (December)

I dont know the game very well, but I think your best bet at beating Rasputin are probably Hanzo, Fuuma, and Brocken. Maybe even Dragon and spear-guy. (double jump, longer pokes, fast falling jump).

I don’t think Muscle or Jack can do it, even though they can beat a lot of the cast.

REALLY GOOD SHIT on the revised WW7 tier list

captain kid ftw
