Much respect for Baal and Mad KOF, their fight was so legendary Evo was ashamed they didn't bring KOF in sooner. Easily one of the most intense fights in all of Evo history.
Amazing! Something about KoF....when you see skilled players play, it doesn't look like spamfests like a lot of other competitive games do. Not demeaning the skill involved in other games, it's just that many of them reward precise timing of repeat techniques. KoF is so very deep and varied, man. Makes for great watching.
Caught this live the night it happened; it was the first Evo I'd seen, the first Evo stream I'd watched, and the first time I'd seen KOF; started playing the next week. Such a legendary final!!
I remember watching this live, and the second Bala took forever to pick his team when he was tied 2-2 with MadKOF I thought to myself "He's done". Hope to see these guys again next EVO. If he gets over his nerves Bala will be a beast.
easily the best tourney at EVO that year! EVO 2012 and 2013 is what brought me back into fighting games! ( that, and maximillian and french commentator ken bogard!)
yeah they do, when they did scr last year too. hellpockets and metaphysics. not annoying and manage to flow the hype. next tournament, they should be commentators too
maaaan kof13 is such a hype game! I bought the game a few months after release and I love it! The game is extremely difficult though, not because of the really high execution combos, but the amount of options you have with your meter and other sources. It's really hard to confirm a very long combo when you're in a lot of pressure, and then having to decide what is the most optimal combo. After that, see if you can actually get the combo done. Very clean game IMO, huge respect.
1.) That controller Mad KOF is using is total badassery 2.) Great fights just makes me want to play KOF more and more 3.) More people need to start playing KOF.
This tourney was so damn fine dude, the level of play was on TOP and the hype was real, sadly this was the last KOF game that actually worthed a damn. I believe we will never see anything like that ever again
Estuvieron buenas las pelas al final no cabe duda que el mexicano sintió toda la presión de la final ,por otro lado que orgullosos se deben sentir a ver llegado a la final felicitaciones mexicacones desde PERU.
Not only Korea, Japan or Mexico, here in Argentina are too many boys and girls playing KOF right now, and every day and every night, i know, the kof saga is playing all around the world, but in many latin america countries are some of the best players, and never are invited to the tournaments like evo
haven't been much into KOF but after i saw this i complitly changed my mind about i got KOFXIII now for my playstation now and its the only think i have been playing
Because BALA and other arcade players are used to listening to buttons and catching a glimpse of button presses in the corner of their eyes. It's the game outside the game and a whole different level of mindgames.
Aconpanhei quase todo as lutas do Bala até chegar ao EVO,,o Duolon e o Chin são personagens que ele não enfrenta com frequencia então fico foda ele achar uma brexa para vencer....
I just realized Mr Wizard said the KOFXIII Top 8 took 3 hours and 45 minutes and set a record for longest Top 8...which is funny since it's actually under 3 hours and UMVC3's Top 8 was actually a couple of minute longer, lol.
It's best two out-of-three. Also, people are sent to the losers bracket, where they get a chance to play in the grand final, but at a disadvantage, as they must win twice.
So true! most of them are unbelievably good. like Bala x 2 its insane! but unfortunately they don't have the luxury of traveling or the means to enter these competition because 1- funding 2- lack of knowledge that these types of tournaments exsist and 3- transport
Nosotros los mexicanos talvez no sepamos los mejores pero siempre estamos dando competencia......Me sorprendió que no fuera japonés, es que ellos son tan poderosos

Personally, the Reynald/Hee San Woo match is even more legendary.
*****
honestly, it wasnt nearly as hype as this one was. this was too good.
Yo, 2012 was definitely KOF's year. The hype was too real.

It's a shame that we never saw Terry Bogard :'(
easily the best tourney at EVO that year! EVO 2012 and 2013 is what brought me back into fighting games! ( that, and maximillian and french commentator ken bogard!)
This was the best of Evo, I hope so much that Bala and Mad KOF are back this year
yeah they do, when they did scr last year too. hellpockets and metaphysics. not annoying and manage to flow the hype. next tournament, they should be commentators too
That Audio change, thank you! 21:32

these top 8's were so hype when they were live. definitely going to watch them again
watching all of these Cafe ID guys in the top 8 reminds me of watching Karate Kid with all of the Cobra Kai guys in it... holy freaking flashback
I like how the sound on this is either all bass or all treble xD Glad to see the matches, though, no matter what. Thanks!
This is the second time i watch the whole 2 hours and 45 minutes video in just one week! i just love #KingOfFighters
KOF XIII is like the game of EVO2012, l can't wait to see how crazy KOF is going to be at next years event.
1.) That controller Mad KOF is using is total badassery
2.) Great fights just makes me want to play KOF more and more
3.) More people need to start playing KOF.
Yes, it's better than finding bits and pieces in 6 different channels. IronMonk did the full top 8's last year but this year it's in HD! Thanks.
KoFXIII ws the hypest thing at Evo last year. Hope it's just as good this year.
absolutely love this game it needs to come on next gen consoles. best evo for kof 13
This tourney was so damn fine dude, the level of play was on TOP and the hype was real, sadly this was the last KOF game that actually worthed a damn. I believe we will never see anything like that ever again
2021 still watching!
One of the best years for kof
all tops 8s are now up so enjoy
This is the best Grand Final of EVO2012.I'm not familiar with KOF but it was so exited to watch it.
thank you for posting this
Estuvieron buenas las pelas al final no cabe duda que el mexicano sintió toda la presión de la final ,por otro lado que orgullosos se deben sentir a ver llegado a la final felicitaciones mexicacones desde PERU.
thanks very much for the upload , audio wasnt that bad , main problem for me was the unreadable names , fortunately i recognized some faces ^^
The more I watch this game being played, the more I am impressed by it.
Finally KOF top 8 in good quality. Thank you! :)
This was pretty dope
I didn't know about this game. This is way better than street fighter, they need to advertise this game more.
November 2011, and yes
Watching this all the way through has made me want to pick up KoF. Shit looks so hype.
I dont know the ends and outs of the KOF series but I love watching the matches its just so different and a little more lively than SF matches.
These guys are sooo epic!
dude this was epic!....good job to everyone
KoF was the HYPEST this year
Grand Finals at 1:57:10
That was awesome!
Well done KOF, hype at its finest
Not only Korea, Japan or Mexico, here in Argentina are too many boys and girls playing KOF right now, and every day and every night, i know, the kof saga is playing all around the world, but in many latin america countries are some of the best players, and never are invited to the tournaments like evo
haven't been much into KOF but after i saw this i complitly changed my mind about i got KOFXIII now for my playstation now and its the only think i have been playing
thats probably the best/most clever comeback ive ever seen in my life
This is really really good. I like it
I just want to see some shots of players' hands while playing :D.
thanks alot dude
Man I gotta back into fighting games again.
I'm still trying to order this game and it's August 2017, that's saying something about the nature of fighters out to day...
???
eres el mejor amigo todo los jugadores de mexico te apoyamos amigo saludos
this game is pure beauty !!!
that's very cool. thx
Flawless victory
evo is the hypest fighting tournament their is i love the commentstors they dont piss me off

Its Interessting to me that No Pro Plays Ash, Mature, or Hwo in 2013
The all Play Ex Kyo Ex Iori, Duon Lon, Takuma, Mr. Karate, Chin
i know right i came to learn but i cant find mature or vice
That come back later trophy came at the perfect time
It sucks that the only vid of these is in this quality, but hype matches
good times.
man, I wish it was like that here, I went online on the PSN and it was dead :(
No idea every other top 8 finals that I posted rendered fine for some reason KOF went weird
They're so amazing in my opinion. What made you stop?
Did the jump down-C at the end of the round around 1:10:00 cross up the wakeup? Or is that not in the game? Because that shit looked crazy.
Good matches
Well he is the underdog, he went straight from losers to winning the title, that's what makes a kick ass EVO grand final.
why are the names of the players cut off during the matchers? :( it's hard for me to follow who's playing at the moment
I'd only played the trial of KoF13 prior to watching this... I MUST HAVE IT NAOW!
bala best comback i ever seen in kof
No mames de final ese regreso de bala excelente muy bien
3:00 Talk about "desperation move".
The scary thing is that madkof still dropped quite a few combos. Imagine how good he'll be next year once he has even more practice.
That's cool, thx alot... :)
Duolon do quarteto fantástico,,,rsrsrs...ele ganhou o campeonato!!!!
sorry about that must have been when I uploaded it onto youtube I hear it to
I just realized Mr Wizard said the KOFXIII Top 8 took 3 hours and 45 minutes and set a record for longest Top 8...which is funny since it's actually under 3 hours and UMVC3's Top 8 was actually a couple of minute longer, lol.
2:16:23
CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK! CLARK!

that TAKUMA guy is awesome. OSU !
KoF is life
DAAAAAAAMN UPSET!!!!
when they say "culero" and "puto" refers to korean boy.
Wow...dude...wow -_-
epic
Does anybody know if there will come a new king of fighters for the xbox one and ps4????
KOF KOF KOF KOF!
fucking lost it when Reynald does the "read-his-mind" motion what a baller
creeme que en situaciones de alta precion se juega muy diferente, aveces la tension te gana.
It's best two out-of-three. Also, people are sent to the losers bracket, where they get a chance to play in the grand final, but at a disadvantage, as they must win twice.
Oh god...
mexico mexico mexico mexico!!!

I still dont think there has ever been a better looking fighting game
2: 02: 08
YOU GOIN TO AA BOY! Priceless.
20:04 YOU MAD SMALL SON ???
Es por que no has estado en Japon(tal vez), igual esto se aplica a aquellos que no han visitado los arcades de Mexico.
Nosotros los mexicanos talvez no sepamos los mejores pero siempre estamos dando competencia......Me sorprendió que no fuera japonés, es que ellos son tan poderosos
KIM HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE MOST SELECTED PLAYER HES THE BEST
Takuma y mr karate no son lo mismo?
word
whats the crowd chanting? the spanish word?
