GGs Dream, I am still pretty in the dark on this game. I felt a little comfortable with Clark but I keep trying to do combos when i feel like i should just take what hits I can in this game and if they can lead into a combo then so be it. Goro feels really weird, should i play him by doing the normal KoF rush down style or are you supposed to stay back and play a gief style footsie game, so confused on every aspect of this game lol.
It’s sickness time. I’m sick. Fucking great. Stay clean guys.
1000 health and 120 stun.
I’ve been hanging in the #snkplaymore irc channel on efnet and those guys are seriously good at KoF. Laban is talking about not getting your hopes of for 98 Iori because you’ll be disappointed if you think he’s going to be overpowered.
GGs dream, fun to finally crawl out of the lab, I think I’m going to stick with Yuri and keep looking for the other pieces.
Aww hell. Just as I was starting to fall for KOF I find the jungle stage… filled with wild jungle coons. Good shit. Lol. Well I’m not gonna boycott it. This is gonna be Josh’s troll stage I can feel it.
I didnt even know about that stage I must see this
puts KOF in
[S]KoF is sorta universally racist.[/S] Japan is racist.
This is my new corner combo, but don’t worry magneto got nerfed.

Good ass games to Marcus in XIII. Getting ready for NEC with Team “We Can Make it Safe” lol.
Why? If Mai is your best character that just says that you’ve prob got a good grasp of core game to even make her work. Then from that you can pull out the shenanigans. Not to mention doing well with her should make it easier to use other stronger characters that wouldn’t have to work as hard.
Nah bro, just take what you can get and what comes naturally. Worry about that other shit later. This isn’t like MK with universal punishes into combos. Some matches in this game can get pretty “lame”. And even high level you might see all pokes, spacing, zoning, rather than combos in a match. What combos would you even be busting out with Clark in open ground anyway besides like uppercut->uppercut->jump kick? He’s a pretty basic character. Whole game damn near revolves around his good normals, knockdowns, and that fucking guard point grab. I think with Goro you just gotta find ways to get in so you can grab and mixup. But while doing that you get people afraid to stay on the ground, even from fullscreen, because of the ground smash. Then you got the Falling Sky grab and great normals that naturally AA. He’s almost like a turtle character in a sense. You’d expect him to want to get in, but it’s always been the opposite. People can’t get in on Goro. So they’ll prob resort to chipping you away with projectiles but that ground smash is pretty fast. Both of those characters aren’t combo-heavy, yet they’re solid characters with good normals who hurt and you gotta respect them. That’s one of the most agitating styles to fight against.
Lmao. I hope so. I let Laban school me on 98, 2002, and arcade XIII. But this is console. We still gotta see how this shit shapes up now with the changes. But I still think EX Iori is going to be a monster. Like, certified beast. If he is, then me and a few others called it and we’ll have to deal with a huge problem. But if he’s only “just decent”, then I’ll wear a sack of slaw on my head for a whole day. It’s pretty obvious even right now. What the fuck CAN’T he do? No let me rephrase that, in what area does he not excel or dominate? He did it in the old games back when other characters were stupid and seemingly stacked. Now, in this game, when they removed a few things in favor of I guess encouraging charas to play a certain way, EX Iori looks like the one fully “complete” character. Like if you were to drop 5.0 Devil Jin into 6BR. Just raw ass. Maybe I’m hyping him too much or maybe I just see a dark cloud looming ahead. Idk man, but either way it’s going to be fun to see how everything plays out once a collective competitive scene picks up.
Also, he told me to dl mIRC and I did, but when I go into the #snkplaymore, #capcom, or other rooms, I’m the only one there. So there’s definitely something wrong on my end, but I don’t know what it is.
Connect to the server irc.efnet.net or irc.efnet.pl then you can join #sknplaymore. He said that EX Iori is really good, but he’s not as broken as people suggest.
Also, fear my Claw Iori run under mixups.
Actually, I think I only played him in Blazblue CT.
Flymike,
I want to apologize in advance for moving over to the dark side… Yeah, I bought an Xcock 3shitzkie!
So I have yet to create the live account but I did get SF, UMvC3, and KoF on 360! You guys are fucking dead! DEAD!
Now I need a 360 stick! Anyone want to sell one?
They have a used Hori Tekken edition at our Gamestop for $50 I believe.
Are Clark’s uppercuts safe on block or should they only be used in combos?
Also, with Terry on block should you end strings with Crack Shoot and then start the string over again trying to get a guard break?
Joker,
Can’t do Hori! I need a TE!
Finally, I got settled in to the new home! 8 days and I will have internet!
edit: Stick crisis everted!
Yeah I hear ya. Didn’t know what you were looking for. Probably better off anyways. I still want to mod my art, buttons, and ball top. Just don’t know what art I’ll be going with since it will all be based off that.
Dude, I got to see what you are talking about this Claw Iori rushdown and goodness… I’m a die hard Iori fan basically my favorite fighting game character period but that isn’t him at all… just the model
Mike is right. Once the real Iori drops, hell will freeze over
Lol oh yea? I guess we’ll find out weds then. Just ask bishop 
Big lol at all this kof nonsense. It’ll die before the year is over then its back to sf. Look how quickly the marvel hype died down lol.
Mgs4 is the shit!
Been watching some KOF videos, all I see are boring long ass combos. Don’t care how good the mechanics are, I’m not interested in games where the “fighting game” component is relegated to “minigame you can play while you wait for your turn to play guitar hero (tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap)”. I don’t want the things I like about fighting games (defense, patience, predictions, punishes) rendered irrelevant by picking up some long ass boring muscle-memory combo…
MvC3 is like this and Skullgirls looks like this. KOF looks like this based on the vids I’ve seen… are they giving me the wrong idea?
From what I can tell it has elements of both. You should try playing it before making a judgement.
