The Next Fist of the North Star/Hokuto no Ken thread

That right there was the most insane match, Almost convincing enough to make me play Heart!

NEW SECRET REVEALED!!!

I picked Rei when I played against god damned Mamiya(and somehow won), he seems pretty crazy, also seen some videos and god damn, I thought I played him alright haha.Kenshiro i’ve only seen him being played by my brother who button mashes in every game he plays so no comment on that one :rofl:

Also, wow @ that TokivHeart match, fucking intense.

Juda is a beast, it’s just that it’s a lot easier to become a beast with Toki. :rofl:

yo i almost cried, why did toki get his ass handed to him.

Exactly, a Juda in beast mode is quite the force to be recokoned with. I’d rather fight Toki any day.

Not sure what you meant by that post, are you referring to his beam super? If so, my favorite set-up for that is simply to trip the other fighter(crouching+hk), and doing the move which combos.

Also other moves that knock the char into mid-air may work too i think, like fireball-hk, then super. You should learn to use his fireball-hk, and well as fireball-hp(takes off star when connected). Those i find are some of his key special moves.

Damn that’s some creative useage of IT HURTS!!!. 2p Heart is beastly.

good lookin out true grave

Yes since Kenshiro’s launcher kinda sucks, his fireball motion-hk move takes over. Not only is it a decent move but it also knocks the other character into the air for an air-combo oppertunity. Also when near the corner, tripping the opponent knocks them into the air for a combo too(only near the corner i think, otherwise they fall out of range).

Ken’s fireball-motion hp, is a very short range move but is effective. I’m pretty sure it cannot be blocked either, my favorite set-up is just to get in position after the opponent is knocked down or in the corner, and: crouching Lk+Lk+Fireball motion Hp. Cannot be blocked(i think), takes a star off, and stuns the opponent so they take block damage from normal attacks.

Rei is cool, i love his air shield. Effective for fighting pesky souther users who like to throw lots of air projectiles, because rei’s Air-shield plus air-dashing or dash special move, flys through all of that to get through souther’s defense.

Also good for other air-projectile users such as mamiya.

^^ Kenshiro’s 236+C can be blocked! It’s just that the cpu falls for it always, so you might be tricked into thinking that it was unblockable :slight_smile:

Ken’s DP+C just has retarded priority + some invincibility IIRC…

I see, i was not sure if it could be blocked or not. I’m only playing against the CPU lately and that move cuts through its defenses every time.

Was not sure if the comp was just being dumb or what.

Invincible on startup (1st hit only), which lasts very shortly and covers a short height only. Otherwise, it can EASILY be snuffed.

I figured as much :slight_smile:

When I started playing in the arcade it was mostly against the cpu, and at one point I too started to doubt the move’s unblockability due to the stupid cpu always falling for it! :lol:

I was hoping a trade-off to that move’s extremely short range, would be its unblockable when connected. Guess not.

Just abuse your boost.
