yup if Arslan keeps grinding KOF, he could definitely win a few tourneys. he's at the very least near MexicanKOF level. but there's an insurmountable skill gap between the top5 of KOF East Asia vs the rest of East Asia, then vs the rest of the world.

El mexicano lleva entrenando desde los tiempos del tianguis. KOF es nuestro terreno. Mil felicidades a Wero Asamiya y a Seis. ¡¡¡VIVA MÉXICO!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@bhyacks]

xiao hai, et y medio asia se rie de tu comentario

[@marcianitokawuai7010]

​@@bhyacks No lo creo, los mexicanos son los únicos de LATAM que llegan lejos en kof, menos en la 98, ahí si ganan los asiáticos por mucho, pero en los demás juegos el nivel no está tan disparejo, bueno, en 2002 LATAM le gana a los asiáticos, pero igual de ahí en fuera se dan sus tiros en las otras kofs y en esta si ganan los asiáticos pero no ganan fácil y si se amensan, los mexicanos pueden ganarles. Y por cierto, Wero también es vieja escuela, tendrá fácil sus 15 años jugando.

[@bhyacks]

@@marcianitokawuai7010 eso sí. Sin embargo, es triste que kof solo lo juega la vieja escuela. Puro wey de 30 para arriba, y aunque et y Xiao hai siguen siendo los amos, asia sigue sacando talento nuevo, el cual ya no salió en México.

[@SebastianFarias1144]

Aquí los Mexicanos llegaron gracias a que no fueron los Asiáticos. En la Evo ninguno en TOP 8 excepto Pako pero se fue eliminado en minutos contra Lacid y Lacid nunca pudo ganarle a XiaoHai, Tamago se fue eliminado en las Pools por Xiaohey y no llevaba personajes rotos el Taiwanés. El mismo Wero que ganó aquí, la vez pasada en Frosty Faustings Lacid se bajó a casi a todos los Latinoamericanos incluido Wero y viniendo de Loosers remontandole totalmente, y como dije el ni puede competirle a M, XiaoHai, ET, ZJZ, ellos son mucho mejores en XV que Lacid. En la EVO Japan no ví a nadie en instancias finales. Seamos realistas, los Mexicanos y Latinoamericanos que llegan a instancias finales en este torneo es gracias a que no participaron los Asiáticos, lo mismo en la CEO que nadie de Asia fue. Si va XiaoHai el solito se baja a todos. Estamos lejos de los Asiáticos.

[@Jack-fz6ts]

​​@@SebastianFarias1144 En parte si en parte no, cualquier cosa puede pasar pues es batalla a batalla y mexico a demostrado en exhibiciones que no tiene que envidiar a asia en cuanto a nivel. Y e notado que a mejorado mucho los Mexicanos y por cierto VK casi se baja a Xiao Hai en la evo japan otravez, ademas que en la visita de lacid sufrio un monton si no preguntale a shadow, yo creo que aun no lo hemos alcanzado, pero para esto estan estas competencias para tenerlos concentrados para el verdadero reto.

[@BabyBoyJr.]

I think KOF is the only game that very very few pro players use hitboxes. Maybe its very hard to play using just buttons.

[@maninredhelm]

The issue is the 4 jump types. It's difficult to hit them consistently with a button instead of a lever. I have no idea how people like Brightside do it on a gamepad, but even a d-pad gives you more precise control over returning to neutral than a button. The spring rate on a standard Sanwa button is only just barely fast enough to make it possible at all.

[@BabyBoyJr.]

@@maninredhelm You are correct on the jump issue on hitbox type controllers. I tried KOF in stick, pad, and hitbox. Both stick and pad can consistently do the different jumps.
