Not exactly? If a combo has 2 EX and a regular super using quick max you already made up for the upfront pay Sure 3 bars for a max into a climax is the ideal but dont underestimate just using 2 bars max for...er max

It was actually last night. To no one’s surprise, Stardust Ignition got a 10/10.

Another reason that max mode is a good 'comeback' mechanism is that you earn it. A common situation is someone has more life and the other has more meters. Many like to spend meters as soon as they get a chance to get advantages and others like to save it for the big damage. It is more like strategy stuff than a comeback mechanism in other fighting games.

I hate comeback mechanics in most fighting games. SF4 Ultra combos, and Rage in Tekken for example just feel cheap and never feels like you've earned it. I like how its handled in KOF because it still requires skill to do.

@@Auster9376 true, i've seen some situation where combo drops from quick max mode activation. the mental pressure to land the combo is also high especially on anchor vs anchor. one mistake on spending max/quick max can cost a match. landing it on enemy on that situation is indeed feel rewarded.

@@dark3031 I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt and say 98um/fe with it's weird quick max which only cancels your hit stop. There are definitely some quick max specific combos (i.e. Krauser cr.a ABC cr.C kaiser wave).

I really like this game, just what characters can do based on their normals/specials/ ex specials/supers etc without even needing the all round mechanics that every character has access to.

How to make opponent say "No". when you ask them "Are you OK"?

Great advice. I've been constantly scratching my head on how to use Max Mode, but this conceptualizes it in a really interesting way. I only just discovered KOF about six months ago and have loved seeing the content in the last month.

Just wanted to add something. It is a great comeback mechanic because as nice as it looks on paper ... you will not always going to have 3+ bars when you reach your last character, more often than not, you will be spending bars in previous rounds with EX moves (they are useful outside Quick Mode as defensive tools or combo extenders), Alpha Counters or with indeed, Quick Mode ... So there's the catch ... you either save bars for your potential last round or you spend it ... not spending any bars means that you need to learn to play characters with "normal" combos and you need to be very efficient with your anchors ... at the same time, you will need to step up your defense since any hit can be potentially deadly. So yeah, interesting dynamic.

That's the beauty of this game! And learning how to play conservative with your meter is so rewarding. The cherry on top is that the meter combos are accessible to beginners if they take an hour to learn how to get that damage.

Thanks a million dude You're the reason I got as good as I did in KI Fighterz and KOF This helped me out alot

This is exactly what I needed to see/hear. I had know idea how to utilize Max Mode properly. This definitely helps. Now it really is MAX mode.

This video acted as a way for me to confirm that I was using Quick Max correctly, so big thank you for that. Now, I just need to figure out the timing to combo after a jump-in, and I'll be good.

This is actually super helpful. I'm a visual and practical learner, so hearing a subject spoken of and then seeing it in action helps it to really stick. Thanks.

There are so many options. I have learned by experimenting as well. The mixup possiblities are insane

Been thinking about getting this game for a while, and seeing this vid makes me a lot less nervous about jumping in. I've played KoF games before, but they never really clicked for me as I rarely really knew what I was doing or when to do it. Seeing Max break it down so simply in this vid really helped me understand what I can do and has already given me ideas for what crazy shit I can get away with in this game. Huge thanks, Max! This is definitely gonna help me out if/when I give this one a shot! :D

Ya I’m glad he’s loving it. I heard KOF is super tough and I fell out of playing traditional fighters years ago (street fighter my most played but never KOF). So being rusty on inputs and hearing how tough it is had me worried. But it’s actually very forgiving with tricks if you research a bit. Stuff like holding the button a bit early instead of timing it perfectly in combos and the game throw out the move as soon as it’s possible. Also knowing shortcuts on super inputs when canceling from a special makes it sooo much easier to chain them. For example if you need to do a DP into a super that requires 2 quarter circles forward you only actually need to do 1 quarter circle since the DP already gave you your 1st input. The you start look at the inputs for characters and see where stuff overlaps to make it faster. Still got a lot to learn but man haven’t had this much fun in. A fighting game forever and I was never really one to do much training but I’m hooked. Terry in smash reminded me KOF existed and he was fun so I kept an eye out itching to jump back into a fighter and I love KOF15 art style and the characters look cool and have unique styles. Above all it’s fun and that’s what is important. Enjoy if you get it!

Hey Max! Thanks for tips dude. Quick question If you had access to the PS5 and PS4 versions only, Would you recommend playing the PS4 version to have less input lag?

good stuff

Quick thing I learned in KoF15 the other day about Versus Match in offline mode. After you fight the CPU and click 'Fight Again', the game will generate 3 new people to fight against! Been a great way for me to practice offline while getting exposed to the roster's move set. I usually run story mode in fighting games to see what the rest of the cast can do, but this is a great way to power through that while practicing. I'm sure this wasn't uncommon knowledge, but thought it was a really cool feature the devs put in to help people practice. Cheers doods!

thank god for this

Nice review

Here at mexico KoF 2002 is considered the best kof up until this day, and everyone is use to cancel movements, seen this mechanics reminds me of the old days when first met KoF, going out with your friends "yo there's an arcade machine next to Pancho's house, everybody's heading over there" Awesome old days, never forget

Mad helpful

Good tips 😁👍

Like X factor or V trigger, Max Mode is that "YOU HAVE FUCKED UP" mode when you catch a small hit landing. Even better though is the cashout with Level 3s, it's fun as hell.

Wow, that actually helps a lot ➡ thanks

The biggest problem I tend to have a lot of fighting games that aren't MvC or various anime fighters is the timing. It tends to be difficult to figure out "when" to start doing stuff after an attack or what is a valid cancel into what.

@XernuhtZwei

The classic KOF team composition is a Point character with good meter gain and/or meterless combos, a Mid who can use a bit of meter to not have you fully capped and wasting potential meter gain, and an Anchor who can spend it all to close out the fight. In 14, I used Vanessa as my Point, Rock or K' as my Mid, and King as my Anchor, and I think they all (minus Rock for now) still hold up in those places, though I think Vanessa can also work well in Mid and K' as Anchor in 15.

Terry is Top tier in the game already, because he can be a point character or an all out Anchor. Max talked about Terry recovering some bars with his combos. He is a batterie but also have some easy to land devastating full meter combos. Robert is another example.

Can't believe max made it into kof 15, another great assist me episode

Just remember when you're labbing these things to adjust the combos for characters in your first and second slots since they will have less time in max mode to stick in any moves before the supers.

This was good to point out. I see people spend the cash as soon as they get it..making it hard to make a team sometimes..

In case you all do not know terry can hard punch , forward + a then bc then Hard punch , forward + a then semicircle + CD to perform hard punch , forward + a then combo up That is a series of ( hard punch , forward + a ) x 3 yes three times hard punch and forward + a in a row
