I don't know why but I can't stand fighting with him or against him. Just his whole style and everything I dunno... lame. Sorry if I pissed off a bunch Billy Kane lovas out there. Just my opinion which should be taken with a grain of salt right along with everything else I say. :cool:

He is a neat poker and has enough priority to corner fairly quickly (just the CD alone!).
But he does become fairly tame if you use counters ala maylee and yamazaki.
Food for thought.

Billy Kane's an alright character. I don't use him frequently, but a decent character. I jus' hate fighting him in FF2, he cheats like a trick-ass bitch.

billy kane is kinda a bitch. but the best way to learn to fight against him is to learn how to fight as him. his standing c, and jumping c are both really good, his forward A is great for pressure. and his dp A is good for combos, especially in the corner you can combo a dm after it. his qcf A is a good move for chipping and long distance pressure as well.

his fighting style is very different from most other fighters in the game. I try to play him a little like how i play dhalsim (spelling?) in sf. unlike him though, billy also has a good closeup game, and speedy jumps.

oops, i ment to say his dp B is good in combos, sorry. I have some 2k2 tourney vids on my computer at home that show some really, really good billy playing. You could really learn something from them. unfortunately, i'm currently on 56k, so i cant send shit to anybody. sorry

Billy Kane is even more annoying in 2k2.His Crouch B is very fast and can be linked 3 times and you could combo it into his DP+B/D unlike in 98' where he is slower.His old combos work as well.Definately one of the top characters in 2002 and also one of the most annoying.

I was'nt too crazy about my former partner in crime until he returned to the KOF 98. BOY! Did he improve his fighting technique and display a tad more of charisma.
Unfortunately I've never been invited because it just would'nt be fair to the rest of the combatants.Can you imagine Master Geese,Billy and myself teaming up together?? Man,it would be just like old times.
Who knows,maybe SNKP might create KOF Zero loco

I agree, he tends to be cheap as hell...especially in RB2 and KOF 2k2...

Billy Kane's grown on me considerably. At first I used to think he was this cheap character with an unfair reach, but now that I've gotten to know his story and moves much better I've really taken a shine to him.

I give him two thumbs up.

I hate the f**ker, but only cos he's such a bastard to fight against! In the real bout games i'm practically his bitch, although i own him totally in kof.

I used to hate billies style too, but now he's one of the kof's, he's a true fu**ing mid boss.

So yeah! he's better than cool.

I hate Billy he's really cheap and annoying. I wish he'd fall off a building like his godfather did.

I kinda like his style, and playing him in the FF series. In KoF, I find him less interesting, really.

Im sure a lot of people know about this already, but have you seen what happens to billy if an extra mode grab character grabs him after coming out of the dodge in 97, just as hes executing the fire wheel )or whatever) super?

He come down surrounded but the wheel of fire, making him untouchable till the end of the round. This bizarre glitch cant be blocked, so its an infinte as well as a 100 percent combo.

Now we all know that every kof has some bizarre programming, but this is terrible!

I will get flamed for this as I did before, but...ANY KOF WITH BILLY KANE IS CURSED!
