What is the best SNK team for N or K groove

First you should play those characters and see who you feel comfortable with. Just because statistically or theoretically this team is better then this one or this character is better, doesnt mean you can play said character in a functional manor.

Hell I know Sagat is top tier, but I suck with him flat out. Sounds stupid yes but for some reason I just suck with him so I dont use him. Find out who your effective with first out of that group, then judge who you want to use.

At least thats my advice for what its worth.

good advice jae hoon… I agree as well, dame im drunk.

me too i’m agree with you jea hoon.

Use the character feel more comfortable even If you use kyosuke. hehehe

Yeah I guess I will have 2 play with certain SNK chars I have a feel 4

I agree… I remember back when my half-assed Sagat got owned most of the time. Dunno… me and Sagat just don’t mix I guess. Besides, I can stuff FPs with Geese anyways. XD

I use Kyo/Rock/Geese in K for fun. I’ve seen Rock/Geese/Hibiki before. Raging storm isn’t hard if you just do hcb hcb + dwn fwd. Hell, even the pretzel motion isn’t that bad, just not reliable.

Yeah I see what u mean

Sorry for bumping this thread but I thought it would be best if I didnt create another K-Groove one. So who is the best shoto in K groove? Thanks.

ryu i would think because he has a safe lvl 3 to burn if ur running out of meter, that and k-ryu is sick

When you say a safe super to burn do you mean the fireball super?

Also, what exact level is a raged super? Is it a regular level 3 super or a level 3 super + 35% damage? I’m just confused on this aspect because I keep hearing people say that a raged super is awesome blah blah blah and other times I hear it being referred to as a level 3.

What is “sick” about K-ryu?

Sorry about the questions! I’ve just started to look into K-groove and dont know much about it. Thanks.

did i miss something? i thought the topic was “which SNK characters” :/.
use kim

Lol hardly anyone uses K-Kim, Yama’s better in N then K-Cause of his RC’s alone.

Rugals good but does way better in C- or A- due to retarded damage.

Geese stays in K or A (unless you play smooths C-Geese) due to his Raged i’m going to crush your gaurd then smash you with a super style.

Rock is mix mix mix do his low health he cant be played like Geese (no shit) learn how to mix up the command grabs, he really good in K- but he has low health as said before. :frowning:

I dont know how to play Hibiki nor Kyo so I cant say shit. :smiley:

:smiley: :smiley: :smiley: Learn combos and Geese doesnt need his RS. F.U. Crazy lego man out.

i meant N-kim

if you combo into the fireball super it is safe. I was thinking that the hurrcane super is like very safe if it connects. so if you plan on spamming a super, make sure youre going to connect with it.

a raged super is any super in k-groove because you can only do supers in k groove when you are raged. raged supers deal 110% of the regular lvl 3 super dmg according to the buktooth system faq on gamefaqs.com.

as for being “sick” he has alot of cool rushdown patterns that used to be used back in like 2001. Mostly he was used in N groove but if youre raged you deal more dmg than you would if you were in power max mode in N groove. Im not sure but you also might deal more gaurd dmg while youre raged for increased gaurd crushing power. hes got some good bread and butters and can deal damage without meter and can really dish it with meter (shinsho does lots of dmg but you wont always get to use it). With run and low jump ryu becomes a pretty nasty rushdown machine and with just defend he gets a few answers for problem matchups.

from buktooth systems faq:

Damage Bonuses: Full Bar - Normal attacks : 135%
Special attacks : 130%
Super attacks : 110%

sweet, thanks man

terry/geese/joe r2. k

Does Rock really have low health??? I’ve been playing him for a long time…and I’ve never noticed…maybe JD is THAT good…

Allen’s right…just use Kim…the fact that not a lot of people use him should be enough to make you wanna learn him…though, he is a LOT harder to learn than people expect.

i think if vega’s dumb ass wasn’t in the game, i’d be using kim(all grooves).

for the follwing grooves, in my opinion the best snk teams are as follow:

c-groove: Yama, Kim, Rugal.

a-groove: Geese, Hibiki, Todo.

p-groove: Kyo, Geese, Yama.

s-groove: yama is the only one i can think of.

n-groove: iori, geese and yama.

k-groove: lots of snk characters.
