Okay, so between looking at this one and Rooflemonger's video on the same topic I actually had a much better time last night trying to understand the interactions I think I'm in a somewhat transitional period, my own "King of Fighters Awkward Teenage Phase". Been a fan of the series for a long time (heck, shoutout to 2001) but never really had the chance to be fighting people before and while I set in a good rhythm in 15 fairly early, that got me into some bad habits and now I've been running into people that know how to abuse them Doesn't help that I basically only play grapplers so this becomes pretty crucial to get right, and Hinako's arms and legs are so, so short (except her 3C, that button is a menace) So, yeah... still got bopped, still getting the brain to click just right but I feel like I could think about my interactions way better and start actually making more conscious decisions and assessments (i.e: "Oh, so I hopped and got bopped. I was on the defensive, fishing for an in, so maybe a neutral jump CD was the safer choice here") Definitely a must watch for people wanting to get to grips with KoF <3

Thank you! Atm the best source is probably Dream Cancel but I do plan on reuploading this video once Mature and Vice release, and that will also have my opinions on the best positions for each character. But of course if are interested in a few characters I mentioned and wonder whats the best position for each I'll gladly help

This was made more so as a tier list type of meme lol, I hate Sylvie with all of my heart but sadly it is just the truth that she is probably the most busted DLC after Geese

Yo! As I mentioned in the video, one of the things that you can do against someone that runs aways too much is let themselves push into the corner. Either 1 or 2 things will happen: they eventually get to the corner in which case they can't run away anymore or they suddenly go in. If your opponent tends to do a special and then roll away then you can counter it by running and grabbing the roll or straight up full combo punish it but it also depends on which special you are talking about. Sweeps fortunately are counterable by hopping, although it also depends as some sweeps are so fast that are effective as frametraps, in which case you can either just block or DP. Just make sure to still play around the KOF Zone when you let your opponent push themselves and be patient, a good runaway player makes you think precisely that your best course of action is to rush in blindly so don't fall into that cheap trap.

@@luigifgc7485 Yo thanks for the reply! i guess i need to be more patient after all! Btw are you gonna make another guide for KOF in the future? i'm looking forward to it :)

@@fallenrynchan7077 I plan to reupload my character overview guide once mature and vice release, aditionally theres a new video I've been working on but it's been on pause because of some irl stuff. But after that, I'll probably shift my focus to Garou

mr. swag himself!

I find that there is a severe lack of English content for this game

@@hipsterroxas2626 try to do what I can to fill that gap, appreciate your support!

Kof XV has pretty solid netcode + crossplay

Maybe KoF is too hard for them. I wish KoF is as popular as in 90's

You mean the replays? I tend to review them when they send me one and I can either do it on stream on just send notes via DM if you are not comfortable with it being streamed

@@luigifgc7485 yes, the way you analize here how to protect your space and how to be defensive was just gold

Thanks to you for watching!

KOF in EU is def growing! We have a biweekly tournament, new people are trying the game and 2 eu majors will have kof and both are SWC Qualifiers! Im attending both 😁

What is exacly giving trouble starting a combo from lights?

@@luigifgc7485 yes I have problem starting a combo from lights

@@SalahKoF-AFL my recommendation is doing to training mode and setting the dummy to block randomly, and learn how to confirm from there. Dont mash light punch or light kick to confirm, but rather learn the correct rithym for the character of your choice

Sip!

@@luigifgc7485 porque no haces contenido en español? creo q no hay nadie que haga eso

@@boltycakehole5752 ya pongo subtitulos en español para ello, pero de igual forma la grandisima parte de mi audiencia vive en estados unidos y de hecho la segunda mayoría de mi audiencia no hablan español sino que son de Brasil.

Next video will probably be an updated version of my character overview with duo lon and hinako added, subtitles and a postion recommendation for each team. After that theres 2 ideas im working on 😁

@@luigifgc7485 Need a vid like this to help me understand the game a bit better I myself like many others easily get opened up because of lack of proper neutral play, and getting use to the games complex mechanics and pacing is certainly a challenge but I've been playing the game getting use to trying to make quicker decisions. Any other tips would help :)
