Lin's Down + B? No, this is quite Worse.

Professor · Apr 25, 2001

Seeing how no one's talking about this subjct (though Down + B comes up often), I thought I'd mention it: Lin can make all of his normal moves unblockable.

Do HCF x 2 + K when he doesn't have any power stock, that's all. All normal moves during the round will become unblockable.

The effect will cut off if Lin:
1- Executes a special/super
2- Gets hit, or guards an attack

But even if the effect cuts off, he can do the command again. Quite abusive.

This really works? Geeze, Snk must really love ninja's.......

Shingo_Yabuki · Apr 27, 2001

This DEFINETLY works!Gawd,Lin is even more evil now,as if the infinete wasn't bad enough!

Oh,you'll know if it works if Lin's attacks have the same sound effect as his DM,the one where he slices the guys neck.

Evil_Shingo · Apr 27, 2001

God, how many infinates and glichtes does this guy have!
first, theres that glitch between him and Seth, and then theres that MANY counter mode infinates, and then this
This guys a demon I tell you!

Wonder what this guys gonna be like in 2001? They'll probably get rid of him, but if they don't he's gonna be ignored by all but the experts.

Ah maybe so but it's a great way to beat the computer(Fat Cat Lim just kept on doing Lin's air CD attack against Kasumi in the corner,she must die)

Fat Cat Lim · Apr 28, 2001

Bao sucks dick.

Okay, this glitch does work. Tested out today in the arcade. But there's a limit to it. Remember that if you perform HCFX2 K with a power stock, you'll do his DM where he walks to you and tries to grab you. Now unless you want to look like an idiot and do his crappy DM just so his normal hits become unblockable, go ahead, but you'll be wasting a power stock. Plus you'll become your opponent's practice dummy.

I've noticed that if you use this glitch, his unblockable normal hits has a specific hit sound, and they all sound the same like a "chic" noise. So if you can't block your opponent Lin's moves and you hear the same "chic" sound instead of his normal "stabbing" sound effects for his dwn A, C, and jump CD, then most likely your opponent is using this bug.

Uh I think that the sound applies to all the normal moves that you do cause I did this to a kid later on in the day (damn I'm evil),he had Kyo and he was in the corner.I already activated the bug and I did a jump D (the moment that hit him I'm guessing he was thinking "wtf?") then proceeded to do a nice combo on him,from that point on I didn't do any other attempts on doing the bug,but I will do it to a player who has won alot of times like maybe 10 matches in a row

Iie-Kyo · Apr 28, 2001

Ehh, time to piss off some people with this bug.

And no way am I gonna tell any of the players outside my social group about it. They know too much stuff already.

I eat King sized pancakes for breakfast, Terry-aki burgers for lunch, and meat Jhun with sloppy Joe and Kim chee for dinner. All I need is Kyo to BURN'em.

Finally, someone found it out... My friend and I notice this a long time ago but didn't know how it work exactly.

I just hope my friend who plays Lin (beat me in the tournament with his infinite) doesn't know about this. But I guess I'm gonna tell him anyway... ^_^ It only gonna make him more predictable against me or anyone that knows about the bug.

Rain · Apr 29, 2001

Well, thats ruined any chance of Lin being accepted into the SNK hall of fame.... unless its a lamer hall of fame or something.....

Professor · Apr 30, 2001

It's an evil trick to do at the beginning of the 1st round, when Lin has no stock at all.

BTW, that "click" is the sound of a throw execution, which explains a lot about why the bug happens.

Hum.. . . maybe I'll post this baby in my site later as well, once it gets revamped....

What I meant was, you know how Lin's dwn A, close C and jump CD has a "sharp" sound, as if their hits were as razor sharp? Like Leona's dwn A and jump C, and Iori's close C and fwd A? Well, instead of the "sharp" sound, it's replaced by the "Chic" sound effect instead.

Further study has revealed on this Lin glitch shows that calling a striker does not negate the glitch. You can continue doing unblockable hits for the whole round until you do a special, get hit, or block a hit. Sadly, you cannot do it in the air to avoid doing the DM if you have power stock. It must be performed on ground.

Remember, it only works in one round. If you win against an opponent using this glitch in the 1st round, you have to perform HCFX2 K again in the 2nd round.

It just pisses me off how I have to do it again if I get hit or if I pulled off the wrong combo

(I was so pissed when I didn't finish off a combo with Lin against that kid,jump in C,close C,qcf + A,f*^k f*^k f*^k)

Mystical · May 11, 2001

Honestly speaking, I don't think that's a bug isn't it? Maybe SNK just put it in for the fun of it?

hebretto · May 11, 2001

That's too many bugs for one game.I haven't played a game that's had as much glitches aside from Marvel vs Capcom 2

But I think that KOF2000 was rushed so some of the bugs weren't picked up

Iie-Kyo · May 13, 2001

'99 had a TON of bugs in it... I've caught so many of 'em it's...

well...

funny.

The HCF x 2 + K bug sounds similar to Maxima's HCB x 2 + K bug... his just freezes the guy though.

rlc4l · May 23, 2001

What if you hold a button and perform qcfx2+K? It wont come out but youre doing the motion...

Also Id like to know about the Lin+Seth glitch pls <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Fat Cat Lim · May 23, 2001

Nope. Holding K and then performing the QCFX2 motion doesn't work. Tried it out earlier and the unblockable bug didn't work.

Ali Jones · May 30, 2001

aay that bug is not workin could somebody explain that to me plz <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
