However, I feel if Kane should return in 2002, he should have some attacks without his staff or in case that he loses his staff. He should be a like Vega a bit, when Vega lost his claw he could still fight, right? It would be interesting if Kane could throw a jab, a hook, or a front kick or something before regaining his staff.

That is such a good idea, that is a great way to give Billy some fresh life (not that he isnt great as he is but new things are sometimes good for old characters)

I think a cool new look for him would be to get rid of the bandana.</strong><hr></blockquote>
No way, Billy is the bandana and the staff. Take away either, and he wouldn't be Billy anymore.

I agreed a lot, because Billy in FF series can kick´s you ass in all distances..., is a chain combo master and good for punish in all distance, but his SDM in that game is less usefull that their DM, a contrary in another characters of FF and AOF in KOF, Billy is tuned down dramatically because there are another fave-roster.... and they didn´t give more upgrades for Billy because in not a another myte of another games because Robert,Terry... .

A talented kof player CAN be a monster with Billy. Like all of the fatal fury lottery team, the key to using them well is in the counters. If you learn those, you can dominate. In addition, his tap A can dissipate fireballs. Coupled with his far reach, Kane is a great choice for pokers. <img src="graemlins/mrt2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mr T]" />

Couldn't agree more. Billy Kane totally dominates the fights in the Real Bout games. In RBS he was too cheap, Billy Kane players would turtle on the opposing plane and abuse the great reach of Billy's line sway C.

So in their style, fucking the opponent with their large attacks and uses their DM with a fucking craziness when their life is red, too CHEAP, but is the same manner to a cheap Iori or a cheap Takuma in KOF for a cases...
