What do you think of him?
I think he is cool when he uses flames to attack.
What about you?

Hyper Kagami is one of the better bosses in the Neo Geo kingdom. He's super cheap, and if a human uses him, perhaps unstoppable. The computer doesn't use him to his fullest though.

Same for Kouryu though.

See, bosses like Kain, Igniz and Zero ARE used to their limits by the CPU - there's no reason to use them because there's nothign to exceed. Especially in the case of Kain, where he can do a charge move without charging. :rolleyes: But Kagami and Kouryu have all kinds of combo capability without worrying about jumping in to start a combo.

Or maybe I like last blade 1 and 2 more than MotW or KoF 2000~2001...

Well, I didn't nickname LB1 Kagami "Blue Cheese" for no reason. Possibly the single most overpowered boss in SNK's history... except maybe for Igniz. He's fun, though, for messing around with. He got toned town a lot in LB2, though, but is still plenty useful.

I feel Kagami is still a bit overpowered in LB2. Again, it's not easy to tell against the cpu. The cpu will dash at you from full screen and all you have to do is f+D, and follow up with any applicable specials as Kagami bounces off the wall. The cpu plays Moriya a lot better than Kagami, but I can't control Moriya as well because I use a joystick, and the cpu uses telepathy; this has always been my greatest angst in neo geo fighters.

What happened to Pedro?

I'd consider LB2 Kagami middle-tier at best. He doesn't have anything truly overpowering, and telegraphs a lot of his stuff.

Moriya? I 0wn with Power Moriya. :D

I rent-to-0wn with Speed Zantetsu.

I dunno... the AI in LB1 really doesn't make particularly effective use of Kagami. In human hands, he is essentially unstoppable. Trust me, I know. x.x

:> that is why you cannot play with him :> but I still think he is not the overpowered boss. Actually I don't know which one of the neo-geo bosses is the hardest ... because I beat them all

How did you do that? I can do that in the NeoRageX, as it has saves, loads and slower speed(so that I can use DM and SDM), I have no problem even in expert mode!

Kagami is a cheap bastard. His first form in LB1 is pretty easy, but...Hyper Kagami...damn...no way. But....unlike some cheap SNK bosses *coughkingcoughleocough* he is beatable. Just today, I beat him with Shikyo, using deflect and his QCFx2+B move...looks really cool! I prefer Eiji's ansestor though(forgot name).

Never fought him in LB2...how do you fight him in LB2?

The Kagami of LB2 is easier, he's not a boss and no hyper(not very sure) version, right?

Haha... right when I read Deuce's post, I immediately thought of you, and was going to post "sounds like he's calling out EvilMike".

Mike, I apologize for not being at the neo meeting sunday. I was busy dealing with my bro's wedding, and I was so tired from not getting any sleep (my whole family came to visit... they didn't give me a chance). I had set my alarm, but it never went off... heck, I didn't notice that until tuesday... my alarm was still set to "on". I'll make it up to you.

Ugh. I hate Speed Moriya. Truth be told, Zantetsu and Lee are the only characters I even remotely enjoy in Speed mode. :)
