KoF:2K3- Strats anyone

I played a pretty good Maxima, and he is pretty good. Pretty hard to read, and his several autoguards made it REALLY hard to catch him. Anyone help me out with some Anti-Maxima strats? Never played a Maxima player b-4 today, now I know why some one posted him as a top tier earlyer in this forum!

I go to Diversions most weekends, but I doubt I’ll go next weekend. If I go it’ll be Saturday.

The guy you played was he a tall & big(as in chubby) mexican dude…
if it was you have to watch out for his cross up jump A.

Do pokes and small jumps. Theres only 1 GOOD maxima player in SA that ive played and pokes work… Well so did tizoc.

Does anybody use whip very well

my arcade isnt going to get 2k3 till summer:( i’ll just play one my emu for now though:D it sucks not having comp though. u really cant learn much. anyways my teams :

terry (L)
kyo
malin

im new to the kof series. only played with kof characters on cvs and svc.

Heh, I might learn Hianko, but she’s NEVER taking the place of Leona. I have too much history with Leona to give her up that easily…:wink:

I might be there on Friday and Saturday. That Mexican guy that my disciple and I played said that he would be there on Friday as well, so who knows what might play out. Until then, it’s Athena LDM combos and some more Mai for myself.

i think i am goin to have to play u ninjmai.

I bought that Arcadia KOF 2003 strats book. That book is too good,plus the DVD comes with it was worth the money alone:eek: A lot to learn. :stuck_out_tongue: How many of you have this book? and what did you think of it?

Cant find one in San Antonio. Its like trying to get a 3rd strike S.guide(impossible). Unless you ordered it online which i hate doing. If so what site and how much…

ninja mai try be there friday and also k9999. And mukia if your from SA come there friday as well. I got some new maxima and a pratical gato unblockable combo. Comp is not the same!!

man i was doing that LDM of athena and woooo fast reaction time. Even to a low blocked or missed sweep(if done fast) can connect.

BTW
[LDM] Psychic 10
. Sailor Punch
. Psycho Sword
. Fire Sword

which 1 is deals more damage or are the just for dif. ending moves?

do u have the link holla

Spin the best way to connect Athena’s LDM is with d.C it has amazing range. speed, and priority!

yeah,sure do: it took 24 days to get the book and the DVD is region 2. I just play it on my comp since my DVD player wont play that region. Plus the book is in Japanese. Still very imformative and useful:D

I haven’t tried crouching C and Psychic 10, but now, I have food for thought…Thanks, kind K9999! :smiley:

Mukai, if you happen to be in San Antonio, I’d be happy to play you. It’s rather humbling to know that people have a slight desire to play me, but if you’re near, stop on by!

EDIT: Spin, I think that the Flame Sword would be the most reasonable one to finish with. It does do good damage, and you can do a strong Psycho Sword to do a bit more off of the lifebar.

I’ll try to stop by friday, but I doubt I’ll make it, wanna spend time with my Girl. Maybe I’ll bring her, but probably not. Yah, been playing whip and I find out she is a force this year, all of her lags have been removed, or lessened, and with the change of her weak super is a plus. She still deals MASSIVE damage, and has the potential to be a major poker, or a very aggresive.

What can you combo into whips DM… The only combo i can think of (which sucks) is j.d-d for 2 hits, s.B,c.B then the her DM. And why is it you have to do a s.B then a c.B or vice versa for it 2 be 2 hits. You cant do c.B twice for it to count as a combo. Shes not a person i want to master anymore:bluu:

For whip do:
j.C>s.B>s.A>d.A>HCF A>>DM

>> is a super cancel. It’s hella hard but it’s really strong, and looks pretty! :smiley:

I’ve been playing Hinako, and she is really good! She’s really strong and is able to turn the match around in 1 combo. Her decent LDM combo does about %80 easily!! Not to mention she has good autoguard, supers, stregnth, and decent comboibility.

j.D>d.D> df.A> LDM>QCB B is her basic LDM combo.

nice combo:cool: yeah she’s real good this year i always played her. that new move she has when she does a headbutt is real good.that’s why i give her a 9 this year?

yes indeed.
Heres more info on hiniko from fierceslash.

I thought just her LDM can hit people who jump in but also the 1 with the head butt and also the throw. But the throwDM you have to time just right because she is invincible for 5 frames. But shes not worth the play unless you pick her as your leader.

probably wont show up friday but odds are i can make it still around 8pm at culebra

mukai you coming to diversions on culebra?

i have a tizoc thread thurr to check it out bitches:D

I kinda made a conscious choice to stick with Mai as my leader. Leona’s V-slasher is starting to return to me now, so that should be fun.

Also, I think I might start practicing with Benimaru as another fallback leader. He, Malin, and Leona are my new practice team along with Mai (Leader), Benimaru, and Goro Daimon. Don’t ask why I’m deciding to learn Daimon, but I just am… :cool:
