EPTwow crazy hype match here. Didn't know thats what happens when anchors dbl ko. Been learning some Yuri and Dou Lon and watching a bit of NCR and MLG vods. Holy shit Yuri has some crazy tools. So many wakeup options to be respected, divekicks can crossup, demonflip shenanigans crazy good command grab, airthrow, DP, crazy good damage, decent normals/FB etc. Didn't realize she was like this.

Finding some crazy stuff the more I tinker with the game. For example, with Iori, if you get a command grab that puts them into the corner and followup with the standard meterless combo after it ( dp + c, qcb b, qcb a, dp + a), and then jump at them as they wakeup, you'll cross them up even though they're cornered, but not in a way that j.c will hit, and to get the taco to come out you have to input it as though you didn't crossup. Not sure why it happens, but similar things can happen with CD/j.CD in the corner. Also starting to think it's worth it to sacrifice some damage in favor of resets as Kyo. Things like upkicks, hyper hop j.d, walk forward, normal jump, down + c. Depending on how far you walk, it can do all kinds of wonky things, including at one point it crossed someone up, turned their sprite around, but had me land on the original side and combo them from behind lol. Also, I dropped Shen for Benimaru and I only wish I had done it from day 1. Beni is crazy good, just need to learn a corner carry HD combo at this point. His j.D randomly beats or trades with a bunch of anti airs, including I think all of King's. | ||

Skye aka Justius (Singapore) Interview after MLG. http://www.mmcafe.com/kof13-skye-interview.html I didn't even realized that he got DQ'ed into Losers. He played that epic match vs Mr. KoF who ended up placing second, so I wonder how far he really could have gone without that unfortunate DQ. Despite that his attitude seems really positive about the whole ordeal, I would have been pretty upset if they DQ'ed me like that in a tournament with less than 30 people in it AND I came all the way from Singapore. Also, KoF XIII was featured during the Mix Up Night #01 last week in Osaka. It was a KoF / AE 2012 event, hence the name, and hopefully it will be the first of many to come! I have only watched a few matches so far, but the playstyle seems quite different compared to the North American players. Tournament matches start at like 37 minutes iirc. http://www.twitch.tv/mixupnight/b/313471602 and if you like AE2012, go watch the matches with KojiKOG. amazing play with T.Hawk haha. my favorite match was | ||

Was considering recently of dropping either ex iori or goro for yuri. But I really wanna make goro work for me (he's easily been the character i need the most work with on my main team). | ||

Not enough Goro Daimon matches for me to learn from. Was considering recently of dropping either ex iori or goro for yuri. But I really wanna make goro work for me (he's easily been the character i need the most work with on my main team). Seriously stick to your guns if you've got a character you like, I dropped Leona because everyone was saying "she's so bad, she's low tier". Then I see people like Reynald and other high-level players running her like nothings different. The concept of a character being "weak" or unpopular is way different from other fighters they're still very viable it seems. | ||

found this video on srk earlier too. i had seen some of these combos before, but a few of them really impressed me, especially the last one featuring ash's thermidor thermidor sans-culotte thermidor germinal obviously. some of the color edits are hilarious too if you can get the references :D | ||
