I think that the :qcb:, :hcf:+:k: super can combo from it as well, but that might be a situational thing.
Uh, I’m so out of practice on KOF 98. :bluu:
But anyway, here’s a much higher quality copy of the KOFXII video. :tup:
I would go with the V-Slasher, although the likeliness of you landing the C version of the Baltic Launcher is quite slim (remember when this move was the shit back in KOF '96?). I usually do the A version and hope for the best (in a real match), since doing the C version requires LOTS of set-up (too much start-up time, too much recovery lag).
Well actually, you can get a good setup off a f+B knockdown. Then you just do the C ball right over them, which is supposed to crossup ambigiously. However, many characters (like Iori) can just crouch under it and punish Leona easily.
Her fwd+B overhead is generally slow, and not easy to land in a high-level match.
BTW where can i buy dueling the kof dvds or SBO dvd?
seriously… is there a code to play as omega rugal (the boss)
in arcade mode ?? hmmm…
No, unless you mess around with dip switches.
Whats the code for kyo 95 ?
Hold start while highlighting and selecting Kyo.
Ok. I can confirm now that it’s possible (using shortcuts).
qcf + CLOSE c (crouching or standing does not matter)* + qcb + a/c = you’ll combo into Super Vulcan Punch (SVP)
- NOTES
C must be close, otherwise SVP won’t connect and you’ll be in trouble
It’s easier to do close cr.c than close normal c from qcf(Ralf might throw instead)
Might work with other buttons (haven’t tested them)
You can combo both Umanori Vulcan Punch AND Varivari Vulcan Punch off cr. C. It’s pretty versatile! :tup:
does anyone else have a problem doing CD counter attacks properly on ggpo? my timing is always fucked up
So true. Coming from the States to Korea… it went from no KoF to everybody and their mom plays KoF. Shit maybe I need to get into the game so I don’t look like I’m being left out!
Are there any good sites for beginners that tell you all the basic fundamentals?
your best is bet is Kao Meguras excellent overview FAQ
deep character questions can usually be answered by the search.
Some of these are outdated (e.g. Chizuru is bottom tier) or miss useful things.
I noticed that you can combo almost everything (even Galactica Phantom (except it’s useless)) from close C.
Super Argentine Backbreaker is even more useful than Umanori Vulcan Punch, because on C punch block you will still grab your opponent.
I wonder why top players do not use these (or at least I haven’t seen it).
You don’t need any shortcuts for this. Also, comboing into SVP doesn’t do much more damage than comboing into hcf+K and with hcf+K you don’t waste a stock. I wouldn’t recommend trying to learn comboing into any of his supers.
Who works well as a third character in '98? Right now I have Heidern up front and Terry in the middle. Any suggestions for who to round this team out?
