The King of Fighters: NeoWave Thread!

That is exactly why Robbie’s on Max2 mode. Just defend the HSDM, ya fucking CPU!

I dare you, I DOUBLE DARE YOU MUTHAFUCKA!

:rofl: I hate it when the comp does that. I tried to chip one to death with Jhun’s SDM and nooooooo. JD the whole way.

Yeah and what many may not get is Roberts HSDM in UNBLOCKABLE…which means no JDing that…Roll it…

“Roll that beautiful bean footage!!!” “Roll out…can’t stop that!!!”-Luda

Yeah the CPU may be JD savvy but stupid as hell in other regards…

that damn hsdm gets me almost every time in the corner (max2). got any tips for escaping it?

It has a delay when it starts up…train yourself to see the delay and do a move that has inv. frames also…and with your team of Geese and Kula in your av your choices are…

a. Geese-Deadly Rave-obvious choice aint it??
b. Kula-The fearsome move everyone in XI loves to hate…Freeze Execution HSDM…

The best way to set up (Robert users) that super is off a reset in the corner, that makes it nigh unescapable…on wakeup not so much bc of the fact that if you see the delay then you know when to roll…but it you roll when he does the super youll get hit because he goes into a stance then delays doing the super…

I am a Robert master. Here is the perfect set up.

Do the D grab and then the HSDM right afterward. YOu can’t escape it. Or Genei Kyaku. 85% of the time the cpu can’t roll in time.

Oh yeah thats a setup I see NGBC people use also…works like a charm in both I think hehehe…

I hear yah…Rob’s a decent tier in NGBC also…lets see what he does in Hyper KOF XI for the Console…oR KOF XI-NGBC Edition…lol.

The prob with Rob (lol) is that Not many of his moves can be S. Canceled in NGBC. But I give SNK credit. His new Genei Kyaku in NGBC is a lot safer seeing as it is one kick and if blocked, pushes him back far enough so he won’t be punished.

Back on Neowave, my best team is team Kicking Fiend (jhun/Kim/Pimp Masta G Max2 mode). The fact that i lost the roll puts a slight damper in Kim’s Setup for the Point Blank Phoenix Kick. But A small jump rectifies that. Jhun’s HSDM is a savior and it’s a good way to get a free taunt.

New glitch post up at GC.Net guys… Geese Glitch…

Ill link you guys to it when I post it up via editing this post!

Anybody That Likes This Game Is Stupid!!

Uh okay…dude thats just looking to flame…I could say anyone that likes 3s is stupid bc I dont play that game hardcore anymore…(or anyone that puts all their faith on something that is 7+years old…)

But I ain’t gonna do that…come in here and contribute or sorry to be mean but GET THE FUCK OUT!!! :annoy:

(I ain’t gonna get into Capcom vs. SNK wars…not worth my time…just go back to the 3s thread dude…and dont come back unless you have something to say that is good or I will report you thats that!!!)

You must learn there are ways to express your opinion other than trying to slap people in the face… which is what you are trying to do and you’re trying to make your penis look bigger so please just leave…

Why are the pricks the ones against SNK?

Snk works their asses of to bring a decent game to the fans every year since 86! And the franchises have much better players than Capcom games. I want you to show me a capcom player as skilled as a KOF player.

You know why man…bc this site is called Shoryuken…which is why I am a PROUD moderator of Guardcrush.net.PROUD…its a site we dont have to worry about being outnumbered by SRKers and some of them trying to bully us “Cause they can!”

Yes I know… “So go there then!”

Been there done that ALWAYS DOING IT…Im always referring SNK people from here there aint I? I’m busting my ass to make GC.Net THE PLACE for SNK games and gamers alike…

I can sense the CVS flames a growing again…tis a shame…

Back on topic shall we? How about a side KOFNW tourney at EVO fellas??

If not I’ll sponsor it!!! Anything goes anyone is tourney legal including Rugal!!!

A “KOF NW-Anything Goes Hoes!! Tourney!!” (lol j/k but seriously though)

I’ll plan a trip to NYC man one day so we can play games…

Yes… Team K. Fiend (Jhun/Kim/Pimp Masta G = Max2 mode) will rape.

So whats up guys? Has this game grown old on you or are you still playing it?

Soon I am going to get XBOX Live and register as Dark Geese on XBL…so be looking for me…I’ll want to see what skillz you guys have accumulated in the game…

Looking forward to it…I’m getting XBL Just so I can get some competition in Neowave outside my hardcore Denton Crew members…

Okay let’s bump this thread shall we?? After having played the game sometime by now…and some of you having went to Xi of course…I have a question…#1

How many people still play this game?

#2- Do you agree with that tier list I posted earlier in the thread after playing it for a while??? Let’s discuss…because yes we all know XI is great…but I still love my NW…:lovin:

i love it too :3
id also love to see you online DG.

but anyways, i agree, but i think that those below the top tier may need some rearranging.
also, vanessa should be top in SC, i’ve found a way to do the 100% with a minimum of 1 meter, in addition to lots of other broken stuff, that i didnt find anywhere else.

here is what i think should be new tiers:

TOP:
Jhun
Saisyu
Geese
Choi

HIGH:
Clark
Vanessa
Daimon
Chris
O.Yashiro
Benimaru
Whip
Kula
K’

HIGH-MID:
Yashiro
Iori
Shingo
Yuri
King
Athena
Leona
Yamazaki
Ralf

MID:
Shermie
Terry
Kim
O.Chris
Ramon
Maxima
Andy
Robert
Ryo
Takuma
Joe

LOW MID:
Mary
Vice
Mai
Kensou
Chang
Mature
O.Shermie

LOW:
Chin

if anyone has any comments on this, feel free to let me know.
also, i know, some might look like they may be in wierd spots, i will be happy to explain my view on why I think they belong there, because, as i mentioned before, i’ve found some things that might change the way you might play some of these characters.

BTW: this kind of tier listing is sort of flawed. a better breakdown would have to be by modes.

#1 So you think Jhun is better than Choi??? Now I understand Jhun certainly being S Class…as you do too…I remember trying to tell Dark Zero that but if he gets you in the corner if its a Jhun expert man you could die like a million ways…

But then again a May Lee / Angel expert could do the same to you as well…

**#2 You think Choi is bottom of the S Class?? **

Seems like a very solid list so far…

#3 Also why do you think Kula is ranked higher than Iori??? Also you don’t think SC-Terry is that good?

She surely doesnt have as much Priority as XI…and now I see that…

#4- I know Whip in SC is murder…but the thing is most people aren’t gonna dedicate enough time to mastering all her exquisite SC cancel stuff…that makes her a SC murderer

#5- What about SC Andy? I’m sure you know by now about all the tricks he can do

#6-Also where would you place Kyo and why?? Kyo in NW is great practice for Xi because of his ability to cancel the df+D…

#7-Also where would you place Billy/Kusanagi and why?

#8-What do you think about SC Vice?? She can actually do some good stuff and why do you think she is almost rock bottom in this game (In comparison to 2k2 if you’ve played it where she was like Mid tier (high)

Just trying to spark up discussion and give you plenty to talk about…:wgrin:

Man I’m doing the best I can trying to get XBL…

Other than that I am going up to Houston to play with Mr. Mycah Leonheart this upcoming Saturday…I might have him record some matches of us playing if he’s got a camera…

#1 & 2: you’re right. choi is braindead easy and effective, hes is ultra tops for sure. my bad.

#3: iori loses SOO much in his transition from 2k2 to NW, he still has his old school style mixup bullshit, but no real damage. while kula on the other hand can do great damage with NO METER. also, kula’s pokes are just good. its easy to verify an RF combo of of them.

#4: you’re right. i mean why waste time learing the delicate playstyle of whip when you could pick someone like king or yashiro and just produce raw damage. she gets demoted

#5: andy should be promoted to high-mid, right below king.

#6: kyo is a definite mid tier character, even though he can do some beastly stuff in the corner, it takes learning for setups and the iffy timings. i dont believe i overlooked him!

#7: even though billy supposedly got worse, the ability to freecancel from that counter is great. also kusanagi should be right above kyo, as hes easier to use in SC mode.

#8: im just going by what i know from 2k2 for her. but what i do know is that like 99% of the cast can make nice use of SC mode, and just i’ve never seen anything spectacular about vice.

here is what it looks like now:

TOP:
Choi
Jhun
Saisyu
Geese

HIGH:
Clark
Vanessa
Daimon
Chris
O.Yashiro
Benimaru
Kula
K’

HIGH-MID:
Yashiro
Iori
Whip
Shingo
Yuri
King
Andy
Athena
Leona
Yamazaki
Ralf

MID:
Shermie
Terry
Kim
O.Chris
Kusanagi
Kyo
Ramon
Maxima
Robert
Ryo
Takuma
Joe

LOW MID:
Mary
Vice
Mai
Mature
Kensou
Chang
O.Shermie

LOW:
Chin

Okay that surely looks about right now…

#1-Question about in your opinion after playing a while about the match-ups in the S Class- What do you think about the matchup of Geese-Saisyu???

If Geese has SC-Mode I think Saisyu is in trouble…this could be a very bad matchup for Saisyu if Geese has 3 supers because we all know DR will crush any of Saisyu’s HH attacks.

Bc we know the cookie cutter typical Saisyu loves to HH all the time bc his HH attacks are all good…but they are all futile against the mighty Deadly Rave…which means if Saisyu or anyone wants to HH all day and you got 3 DR’s their character will be out in seconds…

:rofl: :badboy:

#2- What in your opinion has been what they toned down with Athena in her transition from 2k2 to NW to warrant her drop??

**#3-Also do you think the new system favors Vanessa better than the 2k2 system? Why or why not? (See now I can hit you with critical thinking q’s I been thinking and waiting to discuss for a LONGGGGGGG TIMEE)

#4-What characters do you think the new system in SC mode hurts in comparison with BC activation…

#5- What in your opinion as a whole are the pro’s and cons of SC-Mode vs. 2k2 BC Activation Mode?

#6- Who in your opinion is the best matchup for Choi???

#7 For Vanessa do you think the S Class is the only thing keeping her out of S Class like she was in 2k2?

#8 It has been said that Kusanagi does not have any effective SC-mode comboes…I like you disagree and I find out that it does not take much for Kusanagi to do damage with very few cancels…

#9 Are you aware of all the backdash things every character can do?? (like Iori’s backdash back+b, Athenas backdash backdash down+b, Mai’s backdash down+a, Kyo/Kusanagi’s backdash df+C) And in order from greatest to least how would you rate the effectiveness of each one for situations?**

#10-We all know Daimon is good in MAX2 Mode, and he is good in SC Mode also with some veyr tricky corner whiffing destructive things he can do…which of those two grooves do you think is best for him??? (SC bc he has roll?)

#11- How important do you think at a high level is IHA (My term for Instant Heat Activation how in combos it will take your damage to a higher level I’m sure you’ve seen the vids)???

#12- What do you think about Leona now? I’ve seen how they botched her 2k2 combo and it’s funny bc some combo vids try to show the combo “still comboes”…I think it doesnt…what has been your experience with that? How often do you morph into Orochi Leona?? I morph everytime my health gets at 10%

#13 At the beginning Robert was ranked A Class because of the tactic it takes people a while to master-IHA, bc he has one combo in the middle he could IHA to and it made him do serious damage.what is your experience with that…IHA takes a while to master…even if you macro the Heat button…it takes a while to master and be able to do it on command in the middle of your combos… What has been your experience with that??

More to think about/discuss!!!
