No striker, good or bad?

Ice_burn · Dec 27, 2002

Lets have some debate, Ihate the striker system and some of my freinds want it back. Now its a time for a good debate.

k'_127 · Dec 27, 2002

it will be fun if they find a way that you can't call a striker more than one time in a combo . also they should let you choose 1 striker only and they should separate the striker guage from the power guage (like in 99/2000) .

No strikers - good

No bring back old moves that were removed when strikers were first added - bad

I totally agree with you, I also think striker should have higher damage, defense and most important cleverer!

pretty much depends on how you uses them
but 99% of the time, strikers are BAD
people only use them to save ass/turtle in 2000.
not to mention they always start a *combo* with strikers or down Bx3>striker.
lastly, don't forget seth and another iori~

for the remaining 1%
there are people that actually use strikers to make a combo prettier. some of the strikers they use are lion king, neo & geo, shermie...
it will be some of my best memory ever, if i can fight with those high level fighters.
they may beat me anyway they like but it's much more FUN than turtling with strikers.

kof2000 sucks, 99% of the time.
i still get pissed everytime i play 2000 in the arcades.

Strikers should go for good. They weren't anything special and more bad than good. They made comboing very easy to perform and also played as a human sheild. Lastly they could also screw you up more than benifit. Just try doing K's special when he hucks the glasses when the oponents striker is out, you automaticly get the free hits.

I found strikers to be useful on only a few occasions. Otherwise, they're a waste. They serve as a good distraction or in Shingo's case, holding the opponent in place until you bust out a mean combo.

No strikers , VERY good!

No striker is good. With no strikers, only good players can win matches when playing with human opponents. With strikers (such as Seth in 2k), even a beginner can win against a pro.

I'm happy that strikers are gone. I'm glad they tried something different... but I just didn't like it that much to be honest with you.

Strikers tainted KOF for three years. Thats 3 KOF games I only played occasionaly in the arcade or the DC ports for funzies. I think that it completly went against the pacing of KOF. It really seemed like something that CAPCOM(Only because they have a knack for quirky fighting game thingys on occasion) would have done. I just didnt care for it personally. I am so glad 2002 is striker free.

k'_127 · Dec 30, 2002

it won't be fun to play with Maxima if you couldn't call Angel as a striker in 2001 . the striker system should have been tweaked not removed

MegaDrive20XX · Dec 31, 2002

I never liked the Strikers play mechanic, I for one am glad it's no more and I sure hope it stays gone.

Strikers and Stocks sharing the same meter was the one thing that was done right IMO. Why don't we just have a separate meter for rolling/CD canceling while we're at it.

Geez! WTF is so damn bad about a little thing called restriction?!

NeoSneth · Jan 1, 2003

i was never big on strikers.
unless they found a way to balance the system a lil more....
