Billy and Saiki are supposed to be tournament legal. The only iffy people i have heard about are the DLC characters. But then again it depends on the tournament and organizer.

As far as I know the unlockables are tourney legit. Billy looks like a damned cancer patient though. But, yea. He’s good.
Yea, but I’m pretty into claw Iori. I just LOVE his Neomax… So badass.
I had an 8 hour Kof13 meet today at my place. We were supposed to have 6 total but we only had 4. It was really fun though. All of my characters have gotten a ton better. I am starting to land some much better damage with Iori. He’s harder to use because he doesn’t really have a lot of navigation options or a fireball. But, I love the capacity for up close pressure that he has.
I LOVE this game. I think it’s great to be able to run up and do a meaty on someone’s wakeup and not have it be dumb.
Billy Kane looks like Ikkaku from Bleach even uses the same weapon.
What’s standard round time limit in KoF?
60sec
I’m gonna play some 13 for a bit. Send me a message or invite if you want to play.
So I need to learn how to rushdown. My normal defensive play is getting me killed. Any pointers?

GGs Negro Justice. Sorry for not picking up your invite Joker. I was playing Chris then I needed to get off so i could arrange a piece for my concert choir.
And they’re calling him '98 Iori lol. All of the DLC charas are like weird hybrids of their past selves. I heard that DLC white jacket Kyo isn’t “true” NESTS Kyo either. He’s based off his NGBC incarnation. That’s why most players are just calling them EX Iori, EX Kyo, etc.
King is annoying as fuck. May you find happiness with Ralf. I think he’s a good character, but he just didn’t click with me. I like old Ralf. Instant command grab. Shoulder tackle. Spinning dropkick. Dive punch that you used to be able to charge while on the ground so that it hits on the way up as well as down, like Honda’s buttslam. Unblockable punch kind of like Shen’s qcf+C charged, except Ralf’s was UNBLOCKABLE. I think the steroids and ham hocks did him in. He’s more of a pressure chara now, but you still gotta be tight with the links.
How is this even possible? That’s like you attempting to play 3s seriously and not using Remy. No wait, take that back, didn’t you use Ryu? Yea dude I don’t understand it. Maybe you just don’t like the way he looks. But Ash is a great character and a bad ass all around.
Spoiler Tags(I don’t know how to make them): He isn’t what you or most people think. Such is the current trend from main characters in fgs and media these days.
Rell has made me hate Clark. That guard point snatch is too goddamn nasty.
Unlockable Saiki is a balanced version of the boss. Think of him like you would Seth from SF4. And I’m still waiting on someone in TN (besides Ernie) to rock Goro Daimon. Dude is a beast. Another one of those characters in games that I want to play, but know I won’t, at least seriously.
Yea you should have. I think it was the one I didn’t make it to. SCIV when ATL was there?
I still think EX Iori is overpowered and I read some talks about Mr. Karate probably being broken. Our friend Nando has the hack with both EX Kyo and Mr. Karate already available but he’s a diehard Takuma player. So I didn’t see anything that those guys could do.
We were just saying this the other day. We were calling him “St. Jude” every-time someone picked him. “OMG what have they done to him?!?” “Oh shit I feel bad even hitting him.” I saw a few nice combos from him and he’s good at controlling space. So at least he does what he’s supposed to.
Hell nah. Billy isn’t even badass in this one. He might turn out to be a beast though, but his sprite looks like he just left chemo. Ikkaku is my fave character from that stupid show/manga. If it was about him or Masumoto I’d watch/read it.
Who are you playing? Online? I don’t know how good your connection is or else I’d say fuck that. Besides the hops, you just have to have a mind for your opponent is doing. And like Shawn was saying, you don’t always hop for an attack to come behind it. You can empty hop to molest, and then go for ground mixups or simply hop again. When people get wise to hops, they’ll prob try to AA you with jabs. If you don’t have any strong normals to counter jabs, ranged sweeps, or even specials, if you peep the jab then you can regular jump-in, over the jab and deep in. Like, I’d want to make people respect hops so much that I wouldn’t even have to do them except for a few times, because I still can’t do them consistently lol.
The game is good because it’s about strat and spacing and mental to even start an offense if you’re playing against someone decent. There’s an emphasis too on knowing your normals. And then just character stuff. There’s certain characters I’d be more inclined to pressure, obviously. Also you needn’t forget that breaking people’s guard is just as important as finding an opening, as guard crush will provide your free way in. I keep an eye on they’re guard meter regularly now, especially with the charas I play.
Yeah Mike I am playing online till I get time to go play with Thomas over the weekend. AA hops with Jab online is almost impossible. I tend to just end up blocking till i die.
I feel it is sad that my best character is Mai…
alright mike, may try goro instead of clark or ralf, probably switch ralf for it, we’ll test it out
Damn, my video is getting around.
GGs to Pat in KOF
So I just booted up KOF and watched the intro movie deal and now I’m hype. I’ve got a feeling this is gonna be my type of game. I hope I’m right.
Hey how much health is in a full KoF life bar?
100%
le sigh…
Anyways it looks to be 1000 and iirc all chars have the same health (someone correct me if I’m wrong). I was just trying to see what good dmg was for normals, combos, etc.
