Who else hates Strikers?

Does anyone else hate the striker system as much as me? Maybe it's because I suck and don't know any Striker combos... <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

I guess I just prefer the one on one bout with no interference. It's like saying "please help, I can't handle this opponent by myself".

Well you clim you don't like strikers though I bet you can't claim that you don't use JOe when you play. <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

I NEVER USE JOE OR ANY STRIKER EVEN WHEN IM LOSING! <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0">


STRIKERS SUCK! <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0">

No way... I never play team FF. I play team AOF almost all the time...

Like I said, I just don't like the Striker system because I suck at it.

Well I don't mind Strikers that are there for comical relief(Neo and Geo)or doesn't have THAT much priority(Gai/Yamazaki).

But the rest like Seth,A.Iori,Joe and so on just pisses me off.Most of the time if I'm challenging someone(I put the money in while their playing)I would go Roulette on the 4th character unless they challenged me(they put the money in while I'm playing)

when I play Kof 99 on emu, I switch off the striker system. On arcade, I just don't use em.
Cheap tactics is what strikers are!!

Let me clarify.I only use strikers on the cpu but NEVER EVER on players even if their using.

FUCK STRIKERS!!!
that kinda' shit belongs in a vs. game, not a real fighter like KOF.

Eolith really need to change the Strikers Priority. They should be like the ones in MSH vs SF and M VS C 1, useful but not related to any cheapass infinites and other cheapass strategies. At the moment, they're like the ones in M VS C 2, totally stupid and overpowered.

i dont like the
strikers in fact this one
loser ass just figured out
how to fucking cross you up
by dashing then calling out
a striker so he can do a super
right after that ... its like
getting a fuking free hit?!?!?
wtf.. he only beat me
3-2 but sob was so fukin
loud tring to trash talk
since he could do
such an easy manuever
to beat me
i had to walk away..
played MS2 to calm down...

Never use strikers. In fact, I don't care about them. Like all of you stated, The strikers are pure cheapness.

I don't dig on strikers because they defy the nature of oldschool 2D style gameplay, which is what I prefer when I'm mixing it up. I prefer one on one confrontations (even in a 3 on 3 tournament), but I didn't mind the team mate assist from the older KOFs. Those were limited interferences that were only useful when you were stunned and about to be creamed or were caught in a grapple. They didn't dramatically affect the outcome most of the time and I thought their inclusion was balanced due to the limited number of times a teammate would jump out.

Down with strikers. They're lame.

i never use that system...a waste really,id much rather see those strikers or new fighters playable....new fighters period!

i don't like how strikers often covers ppl mistakes like when ppl miss an uppercut, call out seth then free (super) juggle.
Or sometimes when running away, or instead of recovery roll call them out. No Damage Scaling + Strikers (>1 call) = Bad (100% / infinites)

WELL

I DONT HATE STRIKERS

BUT WHEN ME AND MY MATES WANT TO PLAY THE BEST VERSUS GAME EVER,
WE GO WITH KOF 98.....NOT 99 OR 2000

DOES THAT MEAN SOMETHING?

Yeah but surely you must agree that Kof2000's core gameplay is just as good if not better than Kof98.Thats why I have put up with the striker systems grab off ground/invunerablity frames tripe for as long as I have...

I hate the striker system, but if they still want it, make it like mvc2. Your strikers are your teammates but using them puts them at risk. Give the strikers moderate priority and make them taunt after attacking. When there is a risk involved strikers won't be considered cheap because you can lose your team member b4 his/her turn comes up. What do you ppl think?

Somebody suggested this, and I wholeheartedly agree upon it. It should be like MvC2, but if you send in your striker at the wrong time, they can be damaged by your opponent and not only that the damage the striker takes is PERMANENT. I hate how the MvC2 players let you beat up on their striker/assist, and then they play this dang keep away game to cheese you to death while they're letting their striker heal.

Whatever Eolith or SNK or whatever does, don't make it as cheezy and abusive as the MvC2 system. KoF doesn't have to be another Capcom game. <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

Using strikers is the last thing i wanna do in my mind.Yeah i hate those ppl who keep using Joe as striker in the arcade.When i chase his Iori,he call Joe.When i chase his Iori,he call Joe.
I also hate the Another Stiker in KOF2K.Snk should improve the gameplay and graphics rather than wasting limited memory bytes on cheap things.

P/S:To anyone who never met me,Hi.I am not a newcomer;i am absent for 3 months

i love strikers they set up combows and help u out. as for ud reather get beat than use a striker then ur stupid. and if u cant escaps them then i stink and should just cut off the game. bunch of whiners waaaaaaaaah

I think by now people know I hate strikers very much. It ruins the game by throwing in an element that doesn't take much skill to deploy!

In other words: STRIKERS GO TO HELL! <IMG SRC="smilies/mad.gif" border="0">

Because I love playing KOF, I've learned to get used to strikers... but I could careless if the system is there or not.

Taiso did bring up a valid point, though... the strikers in KOF do take away from the actual one on one fight. Because the strikers are key elements in the game, most people couldn't survive without them in regular play. No matter how good you are with your team, without your striker you're pretty much toast. This is one of the reasons why I stopped playing MvC2... despite all the "skill" needed to play, to be successful at the game you have to rely too much on your assist characters and not the actual one on one fight.

I too prefer standard one on one battles, with "team assists" being of limited use, and not gamebreaking as they currently are. I also don't like the idea of being able to use such moves to cover up blatant mistakes, like missed uppercuts or DMs. If you do the move and you miss, you should pay the price... end of story. Not have a striker/assist come out and help you land on the ground, preventing a counter attack. Notice how it's things like this why most MvC2 fans can't stand CvS? <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

If they do decide to keep the striker system, they need to make it VERY limited in use. Either make it one use per round, or only useable when your meter is flashing red, like in Kizuna Encounter. That would prevent a lot of the supposed "infinite abuse" that is currently plaguing KOF 2000.

I HATE THEM!!!! THEY RUIN THE GAME!!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0">

u deserve the beating u get. kof is not one one one its 3 on 3 and even in 98 there were strikers the were limited and onlt came out when u were being strangled or somthing like that. as i was sayin if u cantget around the striker. u deserve the ass whopin u get. and if u dont use them u r neglecting a part of the game. the are made to save ur ass and help u in a bad ass combo. so fo all u whiners SHUT UP and keep gettin ur butt kicked!
