I would put Ryo over Robert as easy to use. Ryo's light dragon punch works as an anti air or anti ground move most of the time. Ryo plays a lot like a shoto character. He does a lot of damage even without combos.

For Terry Id argue his weakness is just opening people up. He’s got incredible pressure and is not a guy you want bullying you in the corner but he’s reliant on forcing openings rather than finding them as he lacks a command grab or an overhead outside jumping moves.

Athena's ultimate might be difficult to pull off in Kof 2002, but it's so satisfying once you did

Kula was the character that taught me how to do KoF combos. I picked up Kensou because I liked the sound he makes when he does a CD in 14, and I grew to like the character to the point where he became my main. Maxima became the third character I learned how to use, and I'm surprised that he's not part of the list. Very small moveset, easy BnB combos, a fun command grab, and supers that are easy to execute and are very effective. Sure he's hard to use in high-level play, but I think he's great for beginners to learn. I'm glad you mentioned Sylvie as well. Despite her looks, she is fun and easy to play, and her combos do mad damage. Her main weakness though is her poor range, so getting in is what makes things difficult for her.
@carlosaugusto9821
@carlosaugusto9821 3 жыл бұрын

I definitely would have put Kensou at # 1or 2 at the lowest, because of that backwards 421 dp motion. Defensively it's the easiest non-charge dp in the game. You can buffer it quickly without having to move forward or come out of block, which makes it so much easier to defend blockstrings in a game that already has fast jumps and hop jumps. It combos easily into his super motions. AND, his fb is punch while his dp is kick. So you NEVER get accidental dp when going for fb.

For me in started in 02 in the laundromats I think I picked Kim, Joe and Terry I believe but you know how beginners/amateurs used Rugal and Yashiro(Orichi blood) but I beat them, sometimes I let them kill me just to see how they fight and boom they quit and give up but then the players who know how to play come in (they mostly Mexicans lol) and they kicked my ass I failed lots of times but more and more I learned their patterns I come close to surviving lot more too and there's days where it's 1 on 1 but that was like 2 or 3 years agoI believe if I could go back in time with the skills I have now yeah I would been kicking areses left and right but then I changed Terry with Yamazaki to I believe now I just do roulette with my 3rd character and stay with Joe and Kim with Joe first and Kim last but now since rona hit no one goes to spot no more but now it's little by little I just want a challenge from a dude I never met or seen play before and to honed my skills to finally meet a match someday I was thinking of finding arcade places with either Street Fighter or KOF that are big and people compete in. Either in California or anywhere really so I can kick some ass

I remember the first time I played as the Beart sisters in KOF Maximum Impact 2 Mignon has good combos and special moves (plus she can move like a cat when she changes stances) I still remember how to do that combo that ends with her throw in Regulation A BUT in my opinion her little sister Ninon was even better. Ninon is the best zooner in the Maximum Impact games and her special moves did a lot of damage. She was really one of the best characters in MI2 sadly she was nerfed in Regulation A

When it comes to Sibling Characters in Fighting Games, they usually play like the same Character (Like Yun and Yang from Street Fighter), but the Beart Sisters on the other Hand, it's actually far from it, from you said in your Comment, it sounds like those 2 play totally Different Characters in terms of Moveset. That's really interesting, hoping those 2 Sisters will come back as either Base Characters or as Bosses in Future KOF Installments.

@@joseurbina3835 Well, in terms of special moves the Beart sisters have some similarities but also diferences. They can both be played rushdown or keepaway, Mignon seems better at rush and Ninon seems better at the latter. I have seen some Regulation A tournaments where people choose Mignon. She can combo into command grabs!

I consider Iori to be THE fighter designed to teach players "KoF". Not only is he easy to grasp for new players as you say, but he basically has all the tools to teach you rushdown, space control, command grabbing, that can be applied to other KoF archetypes once you decide to branch out.

My first KOF was 99 and I was the type to use Kyo-2 and Andy a lot, but after CvS2 came out and introduced me to the Psycho Idol, I basically went with Athena, Kula and Yuri (Yuri is just a bit more complicated to use) and never looked back since. This list is just about perfect really, Athena and Kula especially are simple but effective and can also be used strongly in nearly any KOF game, plus I just love them period. Also, I feel the 13 and 14 versions of Mai Shiranui are also incredibly easy to use, and this is coming from someone who struggled with her in older games when she used to have tons of special moves.

Yuri, yes, she definitely deserved to be in. Mai, maybe... I believe she should just be a "honorable mention". But according to his tricky logic, that put Robert and Iori in the list, maybe she deserved to be in just for the sake of coherence. Shen could be omitted because he is too new and the list is meant to be generalistic. But anyways i agree on the point that he is among the easier ones in the games he appeared.

I started playing this game with Iori, Terry and Kyo, then eventually switched to Shingo, Terry, Yamazaki. But even then I haven't got to a point of doing crazy combos, only with keepaway and short bursts. And I thought at first that Shingo was a beginner friendly character. The nightmare of arcades here back in the day were the Athena Sisters. Depending of the version, the players main Athena, then teamed up with either Shermie, Yuri, Kula, Mai, or Blue Mary.

I feel like "easy for beginners" is very subjective personally. I've always had trouble with balanced characters and tend toward specialists so at least of couple of these picks are characters I found rather challenging starting out (King felt real weird, and I still can't play old Ralf) while characters like K9999, Vice and Billy called my name (Vice being the first I ever learned). Also I'm surprised to see K' didn't even make an honorable mention! Dude's got it all man!
@carlosaugusto9821
@carlosaugusto9821 3 жыл бұрын
It's not as subjective as it seems, but the proper reasoning applied to make a list can be tricky. As this list indeed has some moments of flawed logic and a few other moments of apparent character bias. Like omitting some super obvious choices who are even veterans in the series. Now, K9999 is no way a beginner friendly char. The thing is, in this kind of lists it's implied that the char is picked to be actually "mained" and studied in order to be well used. It's not about picking a strong char just to cheese people less skilled than you (because using a bad K9999 can get you screwed against people just above the noob rank), therefore a subutilized char. King truly is a beginner friend char in the series. Billy, not as much... Only in the specific games where he is well done and strong, like most notably in 02. Vice i can kinda see her around there, but still not in "top 10 most beginner friendly", for the most part because she has a particular issue of being very uneffective just in beginner level, but becomes very nice above that point - but that will require learning her tricks. So Daimon is still above her among the easier grapplers. And K' isnt a beginner friendly char either.

@@carlosaugusto9821 I think you kind of made my point for me a bit when you had to define what beginner meant. There's the beginner character that will help with long term growth, but I feel those characters can be difficult to do well with to start out. A short term loss, long term gain sort of character. But if the player hasn't committed to a game yet, then that kind of character can lead to more early losses which will cause a loss of interest. In that case a beginner character is a short-term gains long term loss type of character that works as an advertisement. That kind of character is a good beginner character if we assume that by the time cheesy stuff stops working that the player is invested in the game to do the real work. This type works better for people new to fighting games I think. Of course there's characters that work well for people new to KOF (or a specific series) but not fighting games. Then we're talking about transferrable skills. Beyond all that though I tend to believe in the Heart/Body/Mind idea. Different players come into fighting games with different skills. The best beginner character is the one that plays to the skills and strengths the player already has. Then build the skills you don't as you get to higher levels. Also K' isn't beginner friendly? News to me. O=

Nevertheless, thanks to my pondering too much for the timer’s liking, the game picked a team for me: King, Takuma, Athena. This video proves that even the most relentless AI can have great taste, as I’ve had a smooth time playing fighters such as the top two on this list. 👍👍👍

Great video! Im also inclined to add the fact of how op Kim is in Both KoF 02 entries (OG and UM'), due to how his basic moves has barely few to no startup frames, with long active time. Pair that with the many options his specials give him and you have a High-to-god tier character. On the other hand, Andy entry on this list surprised me. Since Im more of an Old School KoF player, I always regarded him as a tricky character to play, mainly due to how one should know how to properly zone the oponents out while not having many safe on block options, added to the fact that his punishes/combos are very frame specific, especially when it comes to linking his desperate move (Chou reppa dan). However, since you emphasized his XIII onwards entries, I cant be the one to argue with that since I dont know much about those games competitive wise. ;)
