Wow, I actually thought this was made by SNK themselves. I love how this is like various other in game tutorials. Very well done.
SNK Would never go around and recommend people play Street Fighter out of the blue
Holy shit, this is an amazing contribution to the KOF community. Hats off to you sir, Terry style!
How the hell is this video so high quality in 2009. Uploader was living 20 years in the future.
Beginners?! I've been playing KOF for years and nearly all of this went completely over my head. 'Hopping'? What the hell?
This is brilliantly well made.
I know this was made In 2009 but it is amazing
I just left a comment on a video that compiled all segments together, but I still feel the need to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this tutorial. Long story short, I’m getting KOF ‘98UM in the mail next Tuesday and needed something to expand my knowledge on how the game plays. Thanks to this tutorial I’m excited to get into the series with ‘98UM and XI after watching this godsend of a tutorial. Sure, the bosses of the series are gonna be a pain to deal with at first for me, but it’s worth getting into another great fighting game series.
This tutorial helped me out so much 2 years ago. Now I really feel competent to go to competitions. I'll go to WNF when Kof 14 comes out. Thank you Dandy J.
Amazing introduction to the KoF series, very professional-looking and fun.
As someone whos played fighting games for a while now am still at novice level this game and guide have helped me emensly thanks whoever you are
Now that XIV is returning to the 98 playstyle this video is gonna be very useful.
Amazing guide! As soon as he said "What's really good?" I knew it would be gold. And it did not disappoint.
13 years later and still a great guide. thank you, whoever you are
Is this really the only tutorial like vid for Kof? I mean like combos vids but man. Theres nothing to explain the game. Great vid though it helps a lot in KOFXIII. I just wish people did more vids like this.
there is also "Juicebox FGC" who's doing great tutorials about KOF and Street Fighter, he even did a tutorial per character in KOF XIII.
dude.. this video was awesome. you should continue with more things like this. you editing was superb. please.. continue .... with this? :)
This is awesome since come from MK and SF III. Didnt know it was so hop heavy!
Where was this video in the late 90's? Oh how we needed this...
The world needed you then DandyDLC... better late than never though, oh yes, much better late than never.
Thank you.
Best tutorial ever!!!
Awaiting part 2 with much anticipation
Sick tutorial, this needs to be shared everywhere
this video is a masterpiece, and completely timeless
Good job
This video is 12 yo but higher quality then some fighting game tutorials today.
It’s the year 2020 and surprisingly still aged well like wine
i wish we had ppl like u making tutorials like this for every game.. i would never be lost in lie again..
in terms of execution kof its 10 times harder than street fighter
i came from dbz fighters, i got intrested in kof 2002 so came to understand, the jumping thingi is okay but how you extand your combos in kof require proper inputs and timins and is really satisfying when pulling off something
I've played KOF since '94 and I've never run into such a detailed gameplay guide. DandyDLC, you should work in a VG magazine.
Everybody, let's post this at boards, they need to know about the word of KOF!
Never played a KOF game in my life but i'm excited now. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
@KosukeKGA that's the gist of it, jump CD usually helps you stay on offense since it knocks down on hit and has longer block stun than regular light/heavy pokes on block, plus characters with air specials can cancel off of it; keep in mind you can't keep it up endlessly though since jump CD isn't an overhead unlike other air normals
depending on the character some jump CDs are also good as air-to-air options as well; see 98 chris/chang
2021 and still very good. Great work!
This video needs to blow up with KoF XIV out. So helpful, even as just a refresher.
This video is 11 years old, but damn did you do a good job!
Great stuff.
I've been playing KOF since 2001, starting with 98... and did not know even half of what is shown here.
Thank you for this!
Presentation is out of this world, honestly can't wait any longer for the next parts.
Do you happen by any chance to still have the project files of this tutorial?
I would like to hard-translate it personally to spanish, and of course give full credit to you.
Unfortunately no, at least I don't think so. I feel like I had them saved at some point but I'm pretty sure they're gone now.
Wonderful video. I don't think I need to catch up, but its always nice to go back and review the fundamentals and try to create something new for yourself that you may have overlooked before.
Very good video. I hope that anyone that sees this that hasnt played KoF before will want to give the game a good try and learn it.
RUclips's limit is now 1 gigabyte, so you should be able to upload it. After all, it is the same exact file that I uploaded!
J, as a longtime fan of your work (even if you did kick my ass in Poporu '98 back in the day), I must say you've really outdone yourself this time. Where most RUclips tutorials (and many professional ones, too!) are unclear and rambling, you've really got something coherent and attention-grabbing here.
Just make sure you cover alternate guard at some point; that's still one of my biggest stumbling blocks as an eternal KOF scrub.
Oh, nicely done! The Blacknoah approves your tutorial! Hopefully a lot of people will be able to appreciate KOF more because of this vid.
We anxiously await for Part 2!
I would actually love for your guides to be put into the game, that would be so freaking awesome. My first kof was 13 when i was a kid, i booted up the combo tutorials immediately and saw how muxh physical pain the game caused me and drop the series after 2 days. Im looking to get into kof15, so i bought kof14 for practice. This franchise really does from different from other fighters and not many people acknowledge that in their videos. This is my first video seen by you but i hope you will continue making content in the future.👍 though you probs wont see this comment hahah.
Never noticed the mini pixel iori, Mai and terry in the far background of the overpass stage lol
It's about time someone made a good video that broke this game down. Thank your, Dandy!
This has been spread all over GameFAQs lately and is supremely helpful. Thanks so much man.
Masterfully edited. This is a great service to people who are basically foreign to KoF. It's very informative without being overbearing; I don't see it turning off newcomers.
As great as SNK's instruction manuals usually are (I DIED when I read the one for KoF '98:Ultimate Match) this is much more entertaining and interactive. Lol.
Best beginner's guide to a fighting game I've ever seen. Can't wait for part 2.
"If you speak English and you play fighting games, chances are you don't play much KOF"
Say what?! I love KOF and have been playing since KOF 94 first came out. Only problem I've had with KOF is that it's become a very technical fighter. If you can't switch character and pull off these 20+ hit combos then you really can't hang with those that have that jedi-like skill. I really hope KOF XII returns to being easy to just pick up and play.
Kyo is the man in KOF and it is more suitable for what dandy was trying to explain
DandyDLC, this is AWESOME, and I dont even care about the KOF series! I just love fighting games and like to see people doing things for the community... THIS IS GREAT!!!
You did a sick job, and the editing and explanations are TOP NOTCH. Fighting game communities need more people like you.
They actually go back to KoF '96. KoF '94 and '95 felt quite a lot like Fatal Fury without the multiple planes.
I play KOF'98 since it's out. Still the video refresh my basics and clear some concepts.
I know I was late for almost 10 years, but GOOD JOB!!!
Hey just want to add to the good sentiments, thanks for all the work put into the video. You may not remember, but we got some games in back on that korean P2P service a long time back and I'm hoping to get into KoF more now!
I'll be directing my friends to this!
Thanks tons.
Seeing this video is just getting me more excited to play XII! I've played KOF for a handful of years, but I still learned a few things here.
Great job, and looking forward to the next video!
One of the best tutorial videos I've seen in a long time. Thanks for putting in the work of explaining the mechanics of the system, Dandy.
Excellent video! It's good to have a beginner's tutorial for KOF. Of all the time I've spent playing KOF, I've never utilized the various types of jumping maneuvers. I've always just played it like any other 2-D fighter. I haven't got that deep into it. I really gotta try this in '98UM.
Such well made and detailed video.I'm not beginner but after watching this I felt like a noob in kof who didn't know so much basic technics.Also thanks for using kyo as the "teacher" in this video,I'm a Kyo fan!!
This video was perfect for me 'cus SFIV is the only fighting game I've played seriously and I've been trying to figure out how to switch over. Sensei Kyo has my back.
this is extremely well put together and pretty funny as well. super nice dood!
It's not just the info, as a tutorial it's so well done. Bravo!
Best KOF tutorial vid EVER!!!
Can't wait for part 2!
Hey man thx for this re-edit i just picked up a neo geo arcade pro which had a ton of kof games so this is perfect for me.
No joke, man. SNK should consider hiring you.
This vid is tight, more newer people need to play kof!
Jesus Christ, when KOF 12 was new, and especially before the long time with no new KOF until 14.
Very well made, this gave a lot of useful information. I have always been a casual KOF player but always liked the series.
Never knew about the jumping types, mostly it happened by accident so will try this out next time I am playing KOF XI.
That was a great tutorial. I have always loved KoF and now I understand it a little better. I can't wait for XII to come home!
I've been playin kof since I was little and I can't believe I didn't know about all the stuff explained in this vid.
Perfect tutorial. Couldn't have said any of it better!
Yeah, it's the NeoGeo CD version of 98 on Nebula, cause I needed to be able to record clips w/o the music. Unfortunately, the frame step on Nebula sucks and savestates don't work right for NGCD but man I wasn't gonna give up sound effects!
btw zeppy can you still upload stuff over 10 mins to your account? i got a idea
I really like the choices you made with the editing; great music and well done pacing / execution. Very nice job Dandy!
i've always loved KOF but never learned how to play it right.. this helps alot
thank you =D
Good shit. I've messed with KOFs in shitty arcades but I seriously had no idea about hops until this video.
Finally a visual guide for KOF!
This is great, I am busting my ass learning this game because KOFXIII is too amazing
sweet, this will improve my ~yomi~ by a thousand. thanks sirlin j
You win the internets good sir.
SNKP should have paid you to do this, and included it as an extra DVD on the console version =)
As a novice in the King of Fighters, I really appreciate this video. It helped me understand that there are more ways to play than just jumping and attacking and using special moves.
Still, I am having trouble escaping opponents (KOF XI) who relentlessly attack me. Usually, I'm the one on the offensive with Short/Hyper Hops and Special Moves. But after getting pwn'd by Magaki, I think I've lost my edge. I keep asking myself..."How do I fight right?" How do I play the game right? Is there a right way to play? Do I really need to Guard Emergency Cancel or Emergency Shift or watdafuqisthatmodecode etcetera? I just don't know.
Wow I didn't know KOF was like this. I am really going to get into KOF12.
Even a KOF junkie like me learned a few tricks, good job
Whoa now thats is some awesome stuff!! Thanks for sharing it with us, hardcore kof-players! I look forward for the part2.
Oh shit, very nicely done.Great job with the editing and such, I'd be surprised if anything nearly as informative shows up in the boxed copy of 12.
I loled when I saw 'dabbled'.
Great job, very pleased with this. Eagerly awaiting the next vid!
Actually, they go back to 96 mostly. 94 and 95 from what I remember (then again I haven't played it in a long while) didn't have the 4 different jumps.
This is good. Now I don't have to explain to others how to play. I'll just refer this video to them.
This is awesome. I'm ready to go try some of this stuff right now.
I love the editing in the video, looking forward to your next work!
Well done. Gonna give the next installment more of a chance.
Really nice editing and very informative!
Fantastic job.
nicely done!
i was thinking about getting back into kof for a while now.
thanks
wow...this was so well put together !!
Wow this is done amazingly. Great info for KOF2002 UM.
Excellent work i play alot of 2d fighters but never got into KOF i think now ima try it out !! thancks for the vid
I feel like a time traveller, and now everyone is hyped about KOF 15, why do I feel so sad thoe...
this is amazing! thanks for putting this together!!!! this should seriously be in a KOF game cuz the information is insane you can learn a lot
awesome vid,man
it really makes me smile this vid
Kinda reminds me of the excellent tutorial of VF4:E, just in 2D ^^
Man, it's a shame that console-versions of 2D-fighting-games don't have such a tutorial. Well, that's what RUclips is for XD
Great video, I learned a lot from it. May I request some tips?
How to handle super aggressive players (any pro Kyo, Iori, or Chris player). I think this is general enough to apply to KOF XII.
How to handle the AB roll and CD counter attack.
how to play king of fighters without arrows, but playing with the axis of rotation??
even though i already know everything, the tutorial is godlike, than you so much
Wow, this is amazing. Kudos for taking the time to make this incredible video.
Excellent. Makes me wanna play some 98
