Who do you prefer to use in chaos?
Personally, i still like using Normal Iori.Despite being slower, he has more useful moves and a better stamina.When i used Orochi Iori, my health gets depleted fast when someone catches me with a damaging combo or a super.Orochi Iori still has his strengths though but normal Iori is still my choice.
Another thing i like about standard Iori is his auto-guard qcf,qcf+K DM and his saika follow-up.He also seems to have more options to combo when in the max mode IMO.

The thing i like about orochi iori is his ability to combo from a F+A and his cool looking exceed which resembles him strangling Orochi in the KOF 97 special ending when you use Iori, kyo and chizuru.

Yeah, normal Iori for me as well. Same reason as you.

One thing, does O. Iori's f+A actually connects to the DM?

Entirely dependant on your style. Normal Iori is more of a stable character, he plays much better on the defensive but can still play offense; basically he's well-rounded. Riot Iori is total rushdown; he takes bad damage, but dishes it out really well and is insanely fast (he also has the old Scum Gale infinite), so you have to play him offensively. It's almost like comparing Ryu and Akuma; one is balanced out, the other is a total berserker.

How do I use orochi iori in the arcades? I tried the code I got from Gamefaqs but it didn't work.. maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Well in my opinion, Orochi Iori relies ALOT on his jump Hard kicks...
Its also the worst cross up and anti air to air attack...

I hate him. -.-;;
lol

I go with Orochi Iori for the supers. The uppercut super on normal Iori has no benefit to me over the maiden masher, while the 8 wine cups does.

Moreover, a throw exceed is more applicable to me than a trap move exceed.
