KoF XIII General Discussion: Part II

I’m really excited to play people at ncr. So hype.

Well I picked this game up this past weekend, and I’ve gotta say, this is easily the best fighter I’ve played in a long time. No gimmicks, just straight honest fighting. I’m running Kula/Ryo/Maxima right now, and am still getting used to the ‘feel’ of KOF. I’ve played a lot of SF (particularly 3rd Strike), so getting used to KOF staple mechanics like hopping takes some work. I look forward to hanging around this section of SRK and learning stuff!

Dream Cancel has more content but i would suggest to stay on both forums, you will get some great help for the game here too.

Most of the SRK KoF players hop between both sites.

More info on Dream Cancel, but SRK is more active.

If you have a question, go to Dream Cancel to see if there is an answer - and if there isn’t, come to SRK to ask the question.

Level Up will be hosting Thursday Night Fights ft. KoF XIII and UMvC3.

NCR Pools are up

Thanks, I made an account there too.

I’m starting to understand this game. I can hop consistently an got that whole ‘KOF Pressure’ going. XD
I seriously LOVE THIS game! I’ll stop saying that now. >.<

So apparently a lot of guys have been getting online lately. In the past 5 days, I have played 8 different people with 3 and 4 bar connect only lagging once(then we reconnected and it was fine). I guess thats a good sign? I’m just trying to level up even more.

PSN or XBLA?

XBLA. They were above decent. I also want to say plz don’t complement me if any of the guys I played online post in here. I understand I’m considered “good” but I don’t consider myself good until I break top 8 at least. I got close at FR but I’m not there yet. A message saying “gg” will be enough. I truly appreciate the complements because it shows I’m no average joe, but please stop.

Anyone interested in the KoF XIII schedules for MLG and NCR

No idea on the stream links yet

Stream links will be on MLG’s website most likely. Thats where I got all my Halo 3/SC2 streams from regarding MLG events.

Ash is cool! I wanna learn everyone in this game. :3

I made this today. I know it’s bad but I’m still proud of it. I understand alll the drive cancel stuff now. XD

So I have figured out the characters that really just irritate me and tend to blow me out of the water right now. Of course due to work and what not most of my games have been online… although decent connections, still far from perfect.

Clark - This guy rapes me. Not nearly as bad as he did as I feel like I am beginning to get the matchup down a little bit better. Unfortunately online when I punish something that was unsafe or whiffed from Clark my combo will drop resulting in a minimal punish and a lot of the times beneficial for the Clark player.

Kensou - I have recently played a lot more of Kensou… He gets me into the corner and with his projectile and corner pressure I feel like there isnt much I can do… this one is really mostly a big lack of matchup knowledge… so any tips for him would be great. I mainly us K, Kula, and Claw. My sub team is Beni, Kim, Vice (I am the worst Vice player to grace this earth lol)

Still getting bodied daily. Still having a blast learning the game though… I cant remember the last time I lost this much in a game and enjoyed it at the level I do at the same time. I think I am finally getting a hang of the spacing and movement of this game. Far from optimal… but it is a slow progress. All the players online have been super helpful in assisting me of where I need to improve which is very much appreciated. This community is easily the best one I have seen out of all of them out there so far. Everyone seem to want everyone else to level up as much as they can and will do anything to help.

Ha ha ha - I like this post because my main team is the same team I used in XII, Clark/Kensou/TheGuyInYourCurrentAvatar:Iori.

How ironic.

On another note, I just got back from a local gathering. I was literially the guy in the corner playing KOFXIII by himself. About 9 people playing UMvC3, 6 playing SF4AE, 4 playing BlazBlue… and myself playing KOFXIII. Le Sigh.

Oh, and there were about 15 playing Magic: The Gathering. I’m not sure what the hell that game was doing there at our fight night, but maybe they’re just preparing for what Capcom’ll turn SFxT into.

4 people playing BB? Seems like a fantasy land to me.

AW YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NYUKKA LES DO DIS WE DA BES IN DA WHORL. Gotta avenge my boy sparketseers for going out early. GL to everyone here at NCR WOOO WOOO

Laban vs Mr. Naps: The Battle of Beautiful Hair

Bala won MLG Ohio.
He beat Mr. KOF 6-2 in Grand Finals.
Bala beat Romance in Winner’s Finals 3-1.
Mr. KOF beat Romance 3-1 in Loser’s finals.

On to NCR, Combofiend is in losers right now. Dunno much about the rest of the brackets.
