I still dont know why they would show this just for it to not be in the full release (its the arm wrestling minigame from Fatal Fury: King of Fighters for those who dont know)

I am an iron level player this is my first SNK game but I've played many fighting games. I've noticed in my near 500 games that I've played online that trying to learn pressure and being able to score the hit first is primarily the most important part of this game. Yes the defensive mechanics are a whole different story among other nuances you'll need to know in order to safely land the first hit.

My experience with this game was at first I tried learning all the big damage combos and that was bad *at first*. I understand now that the big damage combos mean nothing unless you can get that first hit! Where am I at right now? I need damage, like right now! Lol I just played a gold level player and was able to trade my 7 interactions to his 5 where he killed me. He hit me with 2 big combos, the others were just chip+pokes. Meaning he hit me 5 times, but mostly dropped my life bar with those 2 combo interactions.

What's changed? Some legendary wolf from discord showed me this wicked bnb, I'm sure it drove him nuts how long it took me get it down lol but prior to him showing me this, I literally focused heavily on being able to try and get that first hit, or at least use my plus on block stuff in order to put some pressure on my opponent. This bnb he showed me has literally turned the tide of the battles I fight, when I can hit it lol but it's at least given me a fighting chance in some of my matches!

Tell me then, is what I'm saying actually true or is there something else I'm missing here, or more important to learn? I'm new to labbing in fighting games (always hated going into training mode), but CotW has me locked in. Tell me about what you lab in order to improve your skills.

Is he a rushdown character or anti-Zoner? He feels confused or maybe I'm confused.

I guess it will drop to the store tomorrow during the morning unless they make it available at 12am July 23 😩

POV about to be hit by a level 1 super. Super! 😆

Hey yall so im about to hit plat and having trouble just learning matchups. Is there a site I can use or youtube channel that can help. I try to find something that can help but there's not really alot of info out there.

I play a lot Guilty Gear Strive and street fighter 6 and I preordered also Marvel Tokon.
I was thinking about getting into Fatal fury too since it's the cheapest fighting game and since it s considered the hardest of the current generation.
The reason im asking this, is because, I've heard that its not populated as Street Fighter or guilty gear, and since Tokon is coming in 2 weeks, I think that lots of people will move there, so, since the fighting system of FF COTW its the hardest, will I get lots of matches even at the lowest ranks or its abandoned like FighterZ?

First I suck at the game and just picked it up during the evo sale. I’ve been looking for some easy bnbs for blue Mary. Could you guys direct me to some combos? All I see are old videos from when she came out.

My Color Edit series continues where it left off. This time, I recolored Billy Kane as Grace Ashcroft in Resident Evil: Requiem.

This is just Silver... and it's taking forever. 💀

I've had 10, 9, 8, and 7-game win streaks and I'm still in Silver. LMAOOOOOO. I'm not even that good, bruh. 😭 It pisses me off. Long grinds make sense in **Diamond and above**, but not in Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum.

I want to get good at this game and most guides seem to be over a year old, is there a discord where it’s active and new players can interact? Also how should I go about tackling this game? My experience mainly has been in tekken currently tekken god supreme rank but I want to pick up this game so bad but other than running trials what would y’all suggest ?

Maybe my connection just sucks. But I am wired. Does anyone else combos just not come out online sometimes ? It feels like online and offline im playing 2 different games i love this game but this is like a huge obstacle when i look at the replay the input is there but the move is not lol

I usually main grapplers in fighting games, but in SF4 Balrog is my main together with Zangief. Are there any characters in the Fatal Fury franchise that play similar to him? Medium ranged normals, safe specials, prefers to play reactively, etc...

Doesn't need to be a boxer necessarily

Now comes the decision to get it on Steam or on Xbox! Loved the movies too!

While I’m currently on MUGEN in training mode with this character a lightbulb popped up. This is Sho Hayate from Savage Reign. He’s the main character. While this may never happen I’d like to see him in COTW. His game series shares the same timeline as Fatal Fury & Art of Fighting but yyyears & years in the future. They have their own Kim as well. Makes sense. He’d stand out play style wise. No he’s not a shoto. His karate is far more unique & different from the rest 🪃. Fuuu Ken. I remember first playing him in KOF XI & immediately liking him. Though unfortunately he SUCKED. Tier wise

This video covers a sparing/training session with a former pupil of mine that recently came back to the game after getting re inspired watching my tournament run in breakout last Thursday. This video doesn’t have an intro like the others. Just a long training session between teacher and one of my many students.

I tended to have a lot of these with all of my students where I give a list of feedback and improvements after the session. I was given permission to upload this one and I Hope you guys enjoy. I’m in the process of grooming some young up and coming monsters 😊

However I can't seem to find chun-li and ken's sf3 themes. do I have to unlock it or something?
