You have good taste, Q.
And even though Kula's sprites didn't take a hit, her gameplay sure did in console XIII : /

IMO I would put a invitational such as Canada Cup Masters Series and Topanga World League ahead of everything except EVO(only talking about SF4 obviously). They're guaranteeing some of the best players in the world and their is no such thing as a lucky draw to avoid certain opponents or character match ups to assist your way to winning the whole tournament. I don't see how winning USF4 at FR or NCR would be more impressive with 1-2 or no top international competition at all. To me that's like giving Luffy more credit for continuing to body Europe for like the 5th year in a row than Daigo for winning Canada Cup Masters series with multiple EVO champs and top talent all around.
EVO is the one exception because it's basically a supercharged US major. All the best players from all over the world in a 2/3 double elim format that takes a lot of skill, but at the same time a lot of luck to win as well. I don't mean to discredit EVO but I feel its format could allow for maybe a dozen different players to win if they have a good day where as one won't be able to get away with that in a invitational because they have to grind it out against every top player and keep making adjustments along the way.

The worst part about KOF13 is the fact they shit on their female character designs. Those faces *baaaaaarf*
Edit: Only character they didn't fuck up with their moe blob shit was Kula and that's because that was her design in the first place.
Q what chyu talkin bout!?!? King looks legit!!!!
Nah but yeah they butchered like half the female cast I'll give ya that
What they did to Yuri is punishable by death in some countries.QisTopTier

King has the same exact problems, her face is fucked up plus the emphasis on her bust now is fucking lame. That's never what the character has been aboutQ what chyu talkin bout!?!? King looks legit!!!!

That's not cute, that's a god damn alien mutant thigh monster.
This is cute.
Unless you mean in general, then Athena and Yuri have been around forever

Theyre both cute! And whats wrong with Yuri? Shes a cutie too!
I feel like Armada just started choking under pressure... The fifth match started off differently than the past two, Leffen didn't even bother to realize what he was doing wrong and ended up getting punished on the majority of his techs.

You probably think the madoka character faces and proportions are good too.
Some of the worst character art I've ever seen in a show with freaking amazing set pieces
Gonna have to disagree here. I couldn't picture anyone else other than Yumi Kakazu for Kula.Kula is great, they just need to fix her voice, even though I can tolerate more now that started embracing anime.
Both game 5's on the sets he lost, he choked. It sucks. lol

Yes. I love Umi Aoki's character designs. She also did Hidamari Sketch.
Brilliant character designer
Also that was my desktop wallpaper for a while!

She draws like one of those "how to draw manga" books.

She should stick to designing outfits and base character design and let other people do the rest

She has an incredibly cute style
This is so cool looking. So much personality in one little instant.

Is that thing supposed to be human?
I agree. KOF has historically been very good at that. I actually make mention of it in the community spotlight for next week.
She isn't exactly flat in that game too, just not DoA-ish.
I didn't have a problem with her VA before(always main-ed her), feels like she talk way more now, but that might just be the long gap between XI and XIII.

Oh shit. Real talk I've never noticed that little boob jiggle til now. Aggghhhhhh fuck Q. Now I can't not see it.
Facially though, I think she looks fine. Hell of a lot better than Yuri or Athena's creepy animu faces. Now those I would call fucked up.
Never leaves my team.
Although she isn't in '98, and 98 is my favorite KoF. Sacrifices had to be made. :|
Well I went ahead and tried contacting the APEX staff for a refund, the host's situation is a lot more difficult after discussing it with him, it sucks that I get told there's a place to stay to then get kicked out on the curb by myself due to a friend's miscommunication with the host. Lets hope I at least get a response...
Its not a fighting game yo. Kappa

When SolarPowered first started talking GG with me and mentioned Baiken, I was pretty much sold just on the strength of the design alone. Mind you in the end, I would play more Johnny for running with the iai fighter trope to one of its best end points (something I initially thought Baiken would embrace with no previous knowledge of the series), but Baiken is definitely one of my favorite fighting game characters in overall design and a big part of that is due to her being so atypical in look.
I also was sold on GG as soon someone picked Baiken and proceeded to destroy me in ten seconds. Goddamn that character...
.
That ending though! Hope Cassie ends up befriendingNon-anime talk:

you got fucked over apex? the smash tourney? do you know any smashers in the city? from the stories you hear about them, i'd be surprised if someone wouldn't let you crash, even if you went day of with no plans prior
He is one of the more popular characters, so I can see that happening.
I would love to see Shujinko and Darrius, but I know there is a snowball's chance in hell for either of them.
Hope the character doesn't end up being offed by Cassie
My smash friend tried hooking me up (he's staying at another smasher's house but never offered since it would be weird to bring someone to a house you don't even live in) in a group chat and no one responded to it so yeah... He's not being anymore helpful than that and I can't force him to ask more people he knows. Our smash scene is pretty big but I don't know any of there contact info and I'd doubt they'd let me crash. I barely know any smash players to begin with since the one's I used to play with seriously all retired from video games indefinitely.

Wow 50K watching melee. This is higher than umvc3 in its prime.
man i wish i can get into smash... it's so boring whenever i try to watch it.
i was like that too until i started understanding the meta for it and man... it makes you break a sweat when you watch a really good match.
Thanks man, I'm getting out of my comfort zone and asking the friend who tried hooking me up to see if his friend would be comfortable with me crashing at their place.

you're weird
Yeah, same. I think there is good potential for her too, since Sub is more of a "tank" with his moves nowadays. I want to see some ice skating/parkour shit while stabbing people.
