King of Fighters - General

What resource are you guys using for combos, tech, etc.?
 
Reddit's pretty good.

What characters are you interested in playing?
 
Haven't put much time into fooling around yet so I'm not sure, as it stands Yagami team, Geese, KoD, Clark, Ramon and Terry off the top of my head are the ones I'm most interested in trying.

Yagami team is pretty much my staple, though I really didn't like how Vice was in XIII.
 
Been playing a lot of Terry, Gang-il, and Muimui...been trying to figure out how things work before I dive into combos and such. Good to note I'm still bad at kof.
 
I'm really hoping the rumor of Vanessa being in the DLC cast is true.

Vanessa was my point girl when she was in games. she doesn't need more than one bar in order to be useful.

I've juse had a lot of problems finding a team I like to stick to.

Indeed. One of the stronger drinkers in the series.

Make a vanessa/terry/chin team for maximum alcoholic madness
 
No, Team Alcoholics Maximus would be: Vanessa, Angel and Ramon.

Because the latter 2 share a favorite food, Tequila.
 
The Fandom would go crazy!

But really, see the fatal fury 2 anime. You'll understand the reference.
 
Yeah, but Terry's over it now. But the anime never answered the greatest question: why does Tony only have one pant leg?
 
i cant believe it

People who know me probably expect me to make some kinda masochism reference.
I won't.
Which is weird considering it's an Asian woman who literally has a special move where she steps on you in heels.

Still got my fingers crossed on Adelheid. Let my precious boy get a chance to fight before his dad can come back. Please!
 
Dying for Yamazaki and Mary. Whip is acceptable tier though, like Vanessa.
 
Rest in Peace, Whip's Gun

Her new Ultra is great though, I like it a lot
 
She comes out April 5th and will be 5.99$
 
She comes out the day after Persona 5
Well that's not helpful.
 
I mean you have the choice between this really stylish cool thing
Or Persona 5
 
this really stylish cool thing
Those words are too good to describe King of Fighters
 
Come on. Maxima looks like they just took Wolverine and put him in Mega Man's armor, then decided he was too expressive and not square enough.
 
So wait, you're telling me, SNK made a reference to a popular character? Oh fuck! That's something SNK never did!
 
They should add a Jojo knock off to the roster. No fighting game has EVER done that.
 
and then a popular actress.
like, Wynona Ryder.
wait, what the fuck am I talking about, they'd never do that.
she's too good for SNK to make a character for.
silly even.
almost as silly as a character who is a reference to Kamen Rider Black RX.
and their other team members are just doing tokusatsu poses.
 
me too

all I really need is the Shin Fatal Fury Team of Terry/Mary/Duck in KoFXV and I'll be pretty set
(bring back Seth too plz)
 
Will Shingo finally get some flames going though
 
Fuck no. That shit'll burn him. Just look at K'. It made him an edgelord, and it was the 90s! Those didn't exist yet!
 
dude the 90s birthed the edgelord
just look at Rob Liefeld's entire library
 
yeah, but have you SEEN K' 's walk cycle?

I cut my hand just posting this gif!

Okay the bit where he uses a stage specific prop is really good

Glad they went with t-shirt Yamazaki and not vest over sweater Yamazaki too

There should be one where it's just a random NPC

or Shingo
