The KOFXI Thread Version III-EVO World Team Tournament: Team Juarez v. Cali v. Japan!

Kula is the best battery in the game.
If you want Kula 1st though, you gotta beef up your Malin to make sure she doesn’t die after Kula does. (since Malin takes a lot of damage)

She has a pretty wicked quickshift LDM. I saw it in a vid once, quickshift and then do the special in midair for extreme damage.

Right now for teams i’ve been messing around but I’d say my best team is

Kyo, Kula, Gato (L)

Other teams I like are

Kyo, Kula, B Jenny (L)
Kyo (L), Duck, Ralf

I was using

Eiji (L), Blue Mary, Kula a little bit as well

DevilDigimon’s best team is

Kensou, Gato, Duo Lon (L) but i have to see him actually do a leader combo with Duo Lon

Also someone please tell him that Shion is a guy.

No it’s funnier if he openly admits to wanting to be with a guy.

Btw… both of you dissapoint me. No Oz?:shake:

we are still noobs, one of us will learn him eventually

I play Oz seriously now.

From my experiences, sometimes it’s better not to be fancy but just practical with him. I don’t normally get fancy with him unless they are about to die lol.

By the way, how long do you have to partition the charge to do this Joker combo?

blah blah xx qcb p, qcf lk, qcf p, joker?

after inputing the qcf.lk quickly input qcf.p and begin charge, timed right and it won’t be a super cancel saving you 1 skill stock but that is situational on the flight time juggle start off position. it’s quite easy midscreen or your “against” the wall.

Thanks CMX.

So why do you like to play the teams you guys currently play?

I play a lot of teams, but my fave/tourney team is Jenet/Oz(L)/Gato.

I just like the retarded damage potential of this team. Crazy.

My team (main team anyway)K’(L)/Kyo/Oz…
-K’ he’s the character that I really got into KOF and he has my favorite 2nd LDM(Chain Drive) and a badass DM(Heat Drive) and does big damage and uses fire my favorite element. He has a laidback attitude and I like his red glove(which I edited black).
-Kyo the OG character I played in KOF as well as one of my favorite characters and I had to play him after I played in CVS on NGPC. Plus he too uses fire.
-Oz is a badass old dude and I love rekkas(Kyo). His overall combo potential is great. He LDM is my fav hands down. He’s a cool design overall and teh red glasses are a badass touch.

Combined I have a pretty strong team. Just wished I had someone that could zone better…

My team is in my sig: Ralf, Kim, Kula (L)

Ralf is just one of those odd characters I liked thru out KOF but could never get a feel for until XI where he finally has a combo that doesn’t need a charge. and to add to it, it does a RIDICULOUS amount of dmg for 3 hits. his bnb does as much as a c.C (see it hit) xx super. so he will just build meter like mad for my Kim and Kula.

Kim has always been my favorite in KOF and I play him in every KOF I play, I love how I can play him in XI with easy hitconfirm combos into supers and doesn’t need his ldm to be bad ass either.

Kula was just all out fun when I started playing XI and I love it when theres a female character that suits me that I can actually play.

all my characters have easy hitconfirms which I like the most and they all can hold their own ground.

Wasnt Gato or Oswald the best battery in the game?

Well Gato is/should be a lil under Kula in that respect actually.

Non-leader Oz is a pretty good battery, however in most cases, he’s usually played as leader cause of the ridiculous damage potential that he can get from anywhere on the screen. You have to focus on stun damage and knockdowns with non-leader Oz I find. The only times he really uses DM’s is for anti-air pretty much. So the meter is usually left around.

I guess that’s what makes Oz/Ryo(L) that good lol.

Kula beats those two out because she can build it faster than those two can in most cases I believe.

Wow i havent been on this thread in a while. Whats been happening in here? Whos coming to FRXI. And holy shit at the Vannesa in this vid.

That wasn’t even the best vid. I saw another one from the same guy where he played her pretty aggressively, although, all the things he did were covered in that tut vid. Nice job, though, makes me want to play her again.

More KOFXI footage like a CMV I made plus all footage from NEC8 thats KOFXI can be found here…

Is it me, or is this awesomeness that I’ve just experienced for the first time yesterday (no SNK virgin) possibly the Ridge Racer Type 4 of fighters?

The fonts…the presentation…the smoothness…the loading times…even the leader/order music (both arcade and arrange) sounds like “On Your Way”.

Thoughts?

ya it’s good

hopefully a sign of things to come but

with SNK you just can’t get your hopes up

just take what they give you

and then we bitch about what they give us and want it banned.

Hey quick question on vanessa’s infinite. I’ve been messing around with the straight dp C version (no setup) in the corner and can’t get more than 7 or so reps. The timing seems pretty strict, like you only have a frame or two after the first dp C recovers to input the next. Are there any tricks to getting the second dp C to come out immediately after the first recovers? I’m a bit of an snk newb, for any capcom game I’d piano input the C button after doing the dp motion, but that doesn’t seem to help over just single, well timed presses. Ideas???

The timing is rather simple. I went by a frame to always get it right. You know the two wind slashes she does, right? The second slash has about 3 frames were-it appears then there’s a middle slash and the last part before it disappears. Do the dpf motion and hold the last part so you can hit C right when the middle one comes out. That’s about it, rinse and repeat indefinitely. If you do it too fast, a special comes out and if you do it to slow, the next hit won’t connect. That’s till I noticed that frame while getting it right. Hope that helps.
