"I might be biased, but I'm not an idiot." Has to be one of Max's best quotes of the year.
That's Still Questionable
It just proves you can still be objective critiquing something despite having personal misgivings.
Zylo Wolfzan I was about to comment the same thing. It is one of his best, and right now, with the way the internet is, also a very important one! That’s why I love Max.
That's like the exact words that i needed to describe things all this time! I do want to point out that having a completely neutral stance on something is impossible as a human being.
lmao
Behold the perfection of Kim's pants in this game!
RIP Kim's pants in XIV
I've seen that video and man, I was dissapointed by KOF XIV's lack of pants physics.
Can Only Be Rivaled By Rock's Jacket in Garou
Eldritch0Golem Kim’s pants contain the true 10/10 super in KOF13
RIP, Big F for Kim's pants.
The spritework in this game is still so next level.
A shame SNK couldn't afford to do sprites for XIV. Hope the 3D models in XV are of higher quality than XIV's at least since I have doubt they'll ever go back to sprites at this rate
Agreed. Best looking fighting game imo, though the Xrd series is very close.
@@thefreeburningspirit Samurai Shodown looked pretty good, so XV might even look better than that. At least I really really hope so.
So good that SNK went bankrupt.
@@GattlingCombo At least now they're owned by people who want them to make good games now.
In Benimaru's defense, he's catching a god damn lightning bolt.
It´s just like a Kirin from Naruto...
In his defense, at least it's not another fkin utility super
I think the way they could have perfected it is if they had panned up to the sky like they did for shermie’s super
@@frostcore2214 Mentioning Orochi Shermie/Awakened Shermie HSDM makes me remembers bad things
@@chiefbawor_thegr8966 how so?
As an Athena main I was smugly waiting for max to get to her super and realize she had the best one despite not liking her.
I was not disappointed.
Lol me too
Lol same.
Same here

If there’s one thing KOF 13 nails, it’s the damn IMPACT of these supers. Most of These moves look like the 50% they delete from your health bar
KOF XIII nails a lot of things, not just the supers
But to back you up, I agree tho, most of the final super moves or Neo Max moves here in KOF 13, aren't just your generic flurry of combos, "beat the crap outta the enemy multiple times" types or relies on camera angles switch that create an illusion effect, almost all of these Neo Maxes are actual superpowers from the fighters themselves, from beam cannons to explosions to displays of their hidden powers to creative combos with their superpowers,
I really love it, it gives a sense of "anime" and "super", not just "extraordinary" on the fighters, it's visually appealing, it's climatic, and you can really indeed feel the impact of these moves
@@astridparungao4971 the sound design also helps a lot. They actually sell you on the hits.
True indeed, today we have crazier stuff on other games but for what KOF brings...You feel it in your soul
God I can’t get over how gorgeous the art and animations are in this game
and then ps2 3d graphics
I wish they kept doing the hand drawn characters
@@WaffleKrushaTTV they couldnt cause no one bought this game when it came out and it almost put them out of business.
@@kitsunez at least they make samsho looks beutiful
animations? yes art? hell no.
Finally the game I been waiting for the most of the legacy. This beautiful ass game.
Yes! I fucking love this game. I wish they would rerelease it or make it backwards compatible
@@dryghntr it's backwards compatable for Xbox One
If they haven't change some designs (like Athena's face or bodybuilded Ralph and clark) the game would have been perfect.. When they respect classical design we have this awesome Robert for instance💖. (Get rid of the exagerated flared trousers too please! I hate when Kof 13 characters look like SFIII Remy 😣🤮)
@@dryghntr tell me about it gorgeous
AMEN!
"Terry's super is... Okay."
I see what you did here.
Damn that pun.
Lol me too
@@Walking-MY-Path i dont get it
@@sehyann8115 really? You didnt get it? Are you okay?
@@r.e.d.docena5957 yeah i really didint get it
Oh nerd fact, Mai's end with the character 女 which means Woman
it actually says くノ一 (kunoichi) which then combines into the character for woman. Rather, that's where the word for female ninjas came from in the first place, the taking apart of the word for woman and hiding it in a sequence of sounds that ends up forming that character :p
@@kunfupandarofl very nerd, I respect ya
女 is jo(ji-yo)
Ji = ぢ
Yo = よ
ぢ(ji) + ょ(yo, but used to connect with other hiragana) = 女
@@junkyyard2273 i don't get it, japanese is based on Chinese characters, I can't see how a character can come from hiragana.
@@fightinggamesandchill.5660
Tbf though I don't know shit about Japanese. I only that character is a mix of ji and yo. My bad
This game looks so good that it almost made SNK go bankrupt.
Yep now 3D for less cost money
Did it not sell well? :/
a shame
@@agabz9971 in this decade none of the kofs sold well.
Linrraba nooooo, thats a shame. I wish i would’ve been a fan sooner! The lore, the characters and the games itself are amazing!
Athena looks odd but looking into her origin, her appearance actually makes sense
Is better than Clark and Ralph new appearance, also I hate takuma stance in this game, and of course, Kim pants are always gorgeous
Does her origin includes thunder thighs?
Why? Is this supposed to be a prequel or something?
A. A.M. It's harking back to how she looked back in her first game, Psycho Soldier.
zerosyaoran same goes for kensou. Both him and Athena got their design from psycho soldier
Literally KOF XIII is one of the most beautiful fighting games i've ever seen, just the sprites tell you about the passion that went into this game.
More like overwork and unpaid overtime.
@@whiteblacklight9603 it did not.
A single character was in the making for 6 months.
Imo it surpasses 3rd strike
@@lonewolf3314 it actually did, after this game SNK went on bankruptcy because they spend a lot of money on the sprites but the game did not sold well. It was until they where bought by a chinese company that they started to make games again in 2016.
"Damn Mai. Your walking animation is just *ridiculous. Holy SHI---."*
- Max on Mai Shiranui in KOF XIII, 2019
*does her ultimate*
9:13
max being forced to respect athena is the best
Kim Kaphwan, the character that has the best god damn pants animation in videogame history lol
This game is what made me start using Kim. Now I'm flipping for justice everyday.
N O W I A M M O T I V A T E D
It's like he had a personal vendetta against the pants animation for Ryu and Ken in SF3. He arguably won the war over a decade later.
The pants nirvana.
Only thing as well animated is Rock Howard's jacket
"That wasn't bad. Was like a 7/10."
"Yeah that's alright, like... a 4/10."
He has different standards
ive noticed compared to me he gives easier 9s but he gets really cheap on the 7s and 8s
"It was pretty good! 7/10."
Max has 2 ratings, 8-10, and 7-1
The grading scale is inconsistent as Max has claimed in the past, but from what can be ascertained, it's not based on the school grade scale. Everything within the 4/5/6 scale ranges from "Ehh/Pretty okay/Kinda neat"
PSA:
KOF13 is $5 on steam until the Nov 25th
Bless you sir
such awful timing. My credit card expired. :C
I re-bought it on Steam just hours before it went on sale. Sad face.
A goddamn steal. Thank you kind individual.
Based comment. I can't wait to get back to this game with all the experience I've gained since then playing stuff that isn't marvel, sf2, and sf4
Iori’s special is especially good when you kill with it.
Idk why he rated it 5/10 I think it was atleast 8
@@aadityammahanta6141 The way it has that cinematic change to a monochromatic background definitely grants it an 8
Jesus, Kyo Ex sounds so angry when he does his super.
Because he is.
If we consider NEST chronicle lore.... _Y E S,_ if we consider KOF XIII lore (because in one of the dialogue, Benimaru or Daimon comments on him wearing the old jacket back).... _VERY MUCH Y E S_ (in KOF 03, Ash stolen Chizuru’s mirror, in XI, he nearly got killed [for the third time], Yagami’s jewels got stolen and he is hospitalized.... which explains why he uses his weaker classic style in XIII)
Honestly, since Terry has been included in Smash, I’ve been more interested in KOF games now more than ever and DEAR GOD I think I’m in love
Paul Moore just cuz of smash??? lol smh
@@adrenalinex4 Well what's wrong with that? If someone gets an interest in checking out a characters home franchise thanks to Smash then I see that as a win since it gets more people into more games. Hero in Smash got me to finally check out Dragon Quest and I'm really liking that series so far (I always knew it was massive in Japan but I tended to always gravitate more towards Final Fantasy), and I also played quite a bit of KoF 98 and such before Terry came to Smash and got into it.
Did you play any of then Yet???
Hey, good for you, and welcome to the family! Hope you'll have fun playing the games!
welcomel glad to see a new fan
Yosss
The thing I love about these supers is that they have IMPACT!
You're absolutely right and it's one of my biggest complaints with KOF XIV, I can understand that it doesn't look so good because KOF XIII sprites are stupidly expensive and we don't want SNK to go bankrupt again, but I can't forgive that most of supers in KOF XIV have no impact.
@@andrako748 but still some of kof xiv have good super move i hope snk do well for kof xv
MAXIMUM IMPACT!
@@ameernurhaqeem9738 But the vast majority are inferior compared to those of KOF XIII, especially that of Kula, which in KOF XIII is my favorite but in KOF XIV it's garbage... I don't understand why they chose that version for KOF All Stars.
@@andrako748 yeah i know but thats before they used unreal engine look at samsho nakoruru looks great
What I love about Leona's CLIMAX Super is that her hair turns red-ish like her Awakened/Orochi Leona form. A pretty nice touch.
I also appreciate it, cause it signifies that she has complete control of her orochi side now. Yay for move-lists showing of character development!
@@Azmodeus87 I don't think she has COMPLETE control yet, in KOF XVI Ikari ending she says that she's still more unstable than ever. It's more likely that she's able to channel a tiny bit of orochi power for a very brief moment (turning her hair red but not making her pupils disappear), but if she accidentally channels too much she'll lose control (no pupils).
I also like EX Iori Neomax for the same reason.
He suddenly goes berserk and presses the enemy on the floor with a fire pillar.
"Despite it being a 2D game"
Like....this is the best looking 2D game to date. Bruh.
He means it's limited to a static camera angle, so it's impossible to embellish it with any camera effects except zoom-ins. Cinematic camera movement is a gigantic advantage in 3D games. What they did here without that is impressive, but there's nothing here that couldn't also be applied to a 3D game, whereas the reverse isn't true.
I respectfully disagree.
What's great about 3:26 is that this super was Iori's in XI. But since Ash stole Iori's powers in that game, he also stole that super move!
King Of Fighters XIII is one of the most UNDERRATED and UNDER APPRECIATED games of all times.
marvelous gameplay
One of the most beautiful art style,design and graphics ever
amazing music and voice acting
Everything is perfect in this game minus one thing...NETCODE
I agree. The game is just stunning and how you can chain supers is just amazing
The gameplay on high level is actually pretty bad. The guy who gets the first hit usually wins the match due to how long the combos are. XIV has better gameplay than this and 98 and 02 are still the best ones
The trials needed work. The difficulty spike is like the math homework asking you how long it would take to walk to the moon when all you learned to do was count to 5
@@renann3 Fucking Goro Daimon winning over Iori in EVO grand finals is why I like KoF14 over 13 game play wise.
Thank you for pointing out the VO. My biggest problem with XIV after the facelift they gave it is the VO. They replaced so many of the voice actors including Kyo, which I’m pretty sure was the same actor for all of the games till XIV.
"He does a big shoulder check"
Max, that's a clothesline
It's a lariat.
@@PikminExpert it's Digiornio
PikminExpert LARIATOOOOOOOOO
@@PikminExpert Technically, it's actually Hulk Hogan's Axe Bomber (which is a modified lariat)
@@ShikiDan no it's a Stan Hansen lariat
I feel KOF XIII is so unfortunately underrated and I just love when Max revives these games in his channel.
Came out at a bad time if I recall SF4 and MVC3 was dominating the FGC heck if they would have waited for for this generation honeslty believe XIII would have done better
Honestly with snk’s name being pretty household these days being in 3 of the most popular fighting games I feel all they need to do is look at games like this and 98um and just go “hey here’s some of our best hits; now with online on modern consoles”
It's not underrated(always had good reviews and a following) but definitely isn't as popular as it should've been.
One problem was... Well KOF XII. It was basically KOF XIII but unfinished and it got some people pissed.
Which is perfectly understandable. You just bought a game that looked amazing just to realize you have to buy it again later to have the same but better ?
Underrated? Are you new to KoF
Its literally in the top 3 best KoF games and to many people it's the best KoF game out there
yeah it doesnt get SF level exposure but literally neither does any other fighting game series
The character designs and proportions in this game where based on their source game designs this time. That's why Athena looks more loli and has fatter thighs like she did in Psycho Soldier. Ralf and Clark are buff as hell based on their appearances in Ikari Warriors especially the third game. Even Terry seems to be based on his Real Bout proportions.
Interesting.
Then why is Takumi fat? When was he EVER fat?
What about Yuri? Mai? King?
@M L A bit? He couldn't possibly be retired for that long for it to get so bad.
Real life references to actual martial art master@@accelriderx2931.... except for the arm muscles.... somewhat
9:15 oh I see now, I understand Sakurai, I understand
And thats why mai isn’t in smash
I think this is the highest rated game in Rate the Super history, sure there are some super low scores but then theres like five 10/10 scores
Samsho also have high score buddy
Is this the best kof game in the series
@@sinisterknows6178 Depends on who you ask but it is definitely the most beautiful
@@marche800 I could tell
Seems Max really likes build ups
Holy shit dude, I think KOF XIII's sprite work is legit one of the best I've ever seen in any game ever. SNK has always been a master of sprites and this game is hardcore proof of it.
I think Ralf's Super also lacks a final impact like Raiden's. Still pretty dope, though. Also, props for giving Athena an honest rating despite not liking her sprite in this game much. I think she looks pretty cool, personally.
Ralf super is aliteral reference to One Piece in one piece thatiscalled jet gatling in KOFXIII the super is called Jet Vulcan that is why is that way, the final impact is only there for those that understand the reference
@@EstebanBrenesV Thats the First thing I thought of when I played the game years ago.
@@EstebanBrenesV Oh, really? I wasn't aware of that. That makes his Super even cooler in my book!
Raiden's NM clearly is a joke. He just punches you so hard you spin in the air. If you want Raiden's hype super than check his throw super.
Also, his REAL actual best super is charged kick, which requires you to hold kick button for half an hour, but then it kicks opponent so hard he flies from the side of you monitor.
Hey doesn't that Ralf's Super Animation remind you guys of Luffy Gear 2nd Gattling Gun vibe?? Graphics in this game still brings chill down my spine. KOF 13's artwork, animation, timing, anticipation, the number of frames used, the amazing roster of characters, the stages, etc. Also the animated background with animated audience in the stages made it feel realistic and homely feel to it. It is without a doubt a Legendary classic 2D Fighter. All of these cool attributes combined together makes KOF XIII a solid fighting game and also one of the best and coolest 2D Fighter of its Era in the early 2010s.
The game is now 5 bucks on Steam right now, go get it
There are a lot of fighting games out there better than kof
@Cristo Alba ???
To think this is the only game where the big punch super that Ryo does actually feels powerful
4:02
its also because of the screen shake
Of course you'd set Athena as the opponent every time. Joke's on you cause her Super is dope.
its meh
Best one she’s ever had.
@@WAEVOICE Along with KoF XI's Psycho Phoenix.
@@Geobardi XI Athena is definitely my fav
I believe the reason was because of her Moe Anime design but I honestly loved that Athena Design and it’s based off her old game Psycho Soldier same with Kensuo even tho it’s my least favorite Kensuo design
The chat is still rioting for no K' super.
You gonna see this man shut down the TH-cam channel if y'all keep asking for this non-existent super XD
@@PrincessNine it exists tho. chat was asking for one of his regular supers which has an EX variation (the super not the character)
But he did K's, didn't he?
@@lucasdurval3484 The EX variations of the regular supers are often better than the Neo Max'es.
Lucas Durval I think the op was talking about the super where K’ slaps the shit outta you with his glasses and stops time just to get them outta the air , then beats the shit outta you.
You should do KoF 2002 UM supers Max
They got some crazy ones in there
Yamazaki's is an instant 10 for me.
YAMAZAKI'S IS SO SICK THOUGH
Takuma's lion Kamehameha is also 10/10
Ricki47 You act like it’s something more than just Max’s personal opinion 😐
Especially Igniz's and Nameless's Super .
this game is still so pretty; but damn was it expensive to make those sprites lol
Its a common SNK thing and why they were bankrupt once.
SNK disappeared for a long time after this game.

A lot of these supers look even cooler if you combo into them tbh.

Ralf Ryo Joe and Robert come to mind immediately.

And Iori
@@SaikouShiva I know, it is a neat reference
@@SaikouShiva iori doesnt go orochi. If youre talking about the flameless version.
@@blaze6477 No, of course not
I was talking about Classic Iori
It's a nice lore/story detail in 13 and 14 that see she harnesses her powers in her ex supers. The KoF14 manga adaptation give her a big snake tattoo that shows on her chest when she uses her Orochi powers.
KOF>Street Fighter
FACT!!!!
Kof character has alot more personality simple design but badass better than SF
disbeyaboy1234
Giving the direction Street Fighter is going, I agree.
Street Fighters is basically a nude Muscly people punching each other with lame lame moves but KOF... I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT KOF!

000mjd
He hated Athena way before SvC Chaos
000mjd psycho Ball Psycho Ball infinite repeat.
PSYCHO BAAAAAAAAALLLLL
I also believe it’s because of her Moe Anime design in This game
Me, being a huge Kyo fan, I will never not crack at least a small smile at just how fucking badass EX Kyo's NeoMax super in this game.
The build up, the impact, the flames engulfing the screen and of course his scream!
This brings back memories of having a crush on ash and then realizing he's a man. Yay japan
lol rip
At least most people quickly realized that Ash was a man... but there are still many who don't know that Shion, the sub-boss of KOF XI, is also a man.

*Even better.*
@@kusogakirenfir bruh
I love how before Athena's supers final attack she hits you exactly 13 times
I am crazy late commenting here but eh, whatever. 7_7 Not gonna lie, I'm not really feeling well at the time of this message. I don't quite know if Max will do the Arcade Mode of this game, but whether or not he will, I'll post my heavily scrambled facts of KOF XIII here... Yeah, I didn't really put much effort here, but facts are facts at least~
Here is King of Fighters XIII~ This is the final game in the "Tales of Ash" Saga. Unlike the NESTS Saga, this Saga did away with the established gameplay style for this entry (the Tag-Team mechanic from 2003 and XI) and went back to what people love about KOF. After the beta version- Er, I mean, KOF XII, SNK knew they had to deliever the goods with the next entry and they sure did.
An interesting plot point about the final chapter of the "Ash Saga" is that the invitations to KOF are all sent by "R"! Sound familiar? "R" was Rugal back in '94 and '95! But it is not "Rugal" who sent these invitations but his daughter, Rose Bernstein... who is actually under the control of Those from the Past! Oh noooo! (This detail is seen in Adelheid's ending in KOF XI, fyi)
- Would you believe that KOF XII actually had an English Dub? There seemed to be plans of an English Dub for this game as well, but they were scrapped. Similarly to Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-, it seems the reception for the Dub's voices weren't very well received anyhow.
- This game has an IOS version. Interesting, right~?
- This game has a "Story Mode"... Sorta like the story modes in BlazBlue and Persona 4 Arena + Ultimax... However I know VERY little about the story mode, honestly. All I know is there's a possibility to have a "Bad Ending" and Shion appears in the final chapters, having escaped Magaki's Dimensional Rift apparently.
- Following the events of this game, this created a timeline where... This Saga never happened? I think it never happened following KOF XIV's events, but thanks to Ash's temporal actions, it HAS created Verse and thus caused the return of many deceased characters like Rugal, Krizalid, Igniz, and even Orochi (though he's not a threat due to the lack of a host body)... Oh and Ash is back despite supposedly being erased from time itself following this game's events. Looks like he screwed up big time. (Dammit Ash! XD)
- The sprites in KOF XII and KOF XIII took a VERY LONG TIME TO MAKE. They were first 3D Models turned into 2D sprites. Such a process is very similar to how BlazBlue handles their sprites. This wasn't a cheap game to make, at all.
- The sprite quality came at a cost. Some characters planned for this game were unable to make it like Geese Howard and ESPECIALLY Adelheid. Geese's remixed theme song is still in the game, however. Adelheid is a big disappointment since he's not only the "second main protagonist" after Ash in this Saga but he has incredible plot significance in this game due to his sister, Rose, being under the control of Those from the Past (He is in the background of the Sky Noah stage at least).
- Interestingly enough, concept art for the sprites in KOF XII shown that the original outfits of Ralf, Clark, Leona, and Elisabeth were intended for the sprites but were changed. Athena also looked MUCH different than she does in KOF XII and XIII. She looks rather "chibi like" which is to simulate her original appearance in Psycho Soldier, but the concept art shown that she looked "normal". In fact, one of the posters for XII not only showed the "normal" Athena but Leona in her original outfit.
- Ralf and Clark look eerily similar in this game... though they are sort of calling back to their original look in Ikari Warriors.
- Just like Athena, Sie Kensou's appearance is a callback to his look in Psycho Soldier. Even though this look does not come back in KOF XIV, his fighting stance is the same as from this game.
- King's outfit is a callback to her look from Art of Fighting 1 and 2... Except you can cleaaarly tell that King is a girl unlike last time. lol
- It's been a long time, but the original Woman Fighter's Team from KOF '94 has returned! (Mai, King, Yuri) Same goes for the Fatal Fury Team (Terry, Andy, Joe), the Art of Fighting Team (Ryo, Robert, Takuma), the Japan Team (Kyo, Benimaru, Daimon) and the Psycho Soldier Team (Athena, Kensou, Chin).
- Hwa Jai and Raiden, characters who haven't been playable for a while (Hwa Jai especially) return in this game in order to bring back "unexpected characters". Plotwise, they trick Kim Kaphwan into believing that they are still evil so that they can enter the KOF tournament instead of Chang and Choi. Obviously, Raiden and Hwa Jai have reformed after Fatal Fury 1's events, but they really wanted to show that they still got it as fighters.
- There are Console exclusive characters in this game in the form of Billy Kane (the Mid-Boss of Arcade Mode) and Saiki, the faux Final Boss... However you play as Saiki's "normal form" instead of his Final Boss form. Other DLC characters include NESTS Style Kyo, Classic Iori, and (SERIOUS) Mr. Karate. Strangely enough, Saiki and (SERIOUS) Mr. Karate aren't in the IOS version.
- Billy Kane has shaved his head and now wears overralls. This is his exact look in Fatal Fury 1. Fittingly enough, playing as Billy, Hwa Jai, and Raiden gets a special ending screen featuring them along with other Fatal Fury 1 bosses~ Neato~!
- In Arcade Mode, it is very much possible not being able to fight Saiki and Evil Ash at the end. If your points suck ass, then you'll get a "Bad Ending" showing that Saiki is displeased with his "allies" for helping him. However, he knows he can simply wind back time and does just that.
- With Iori's powers missing following KOF XI's events (thanks Ash), he now fights without his flames. His fighting style is actually pretty similar to Freeman's from Garou: MOTW. Geez, KOF characters love stealing the moves of Fatal Fury characters; Vanessa stole Rick Strowd's fighting style and Iori stole Freeman's. I'm kidding, haha. But in all seriousness, unlike Chizuru, who was discourged from fighting following the lost of her powers and injuries, Iori still participates in KOF alongside Mature and Vice who are mysteriously around despite dying by Iori's hands (unintentionally, at least) waaaaay back in KOF '96.
- This game has many alternate colors... and a lot of them are cool! One of Raiden's alternate colors is more of a costume change! It gives him his Big Bear look! You can even have Kyo dress up like his high school outfit too! And some of the alternate colors reference various characters from various franchises throughout the world. Kula can sorta look like C.C. from Code Geass and Ryo can look like Ryu and Shin Akuma for example~
- If you switch the music, you can either play older themes from past KOF games or rearrangements of certain songs. For example, Billy's other theme is a remix of Geese's theme (since he was intended to be playable). You'll also hear "Queen" (Elisabeth's Team theme from KOF XI) if you switch the music for Elisabeth, Duo Lon, and Shen Woo.
- Some of the game's stages are remixed versions of KOF XII's stages. Others are exclusive to this game. And others are remixed classic stages from past KOF games like the Japan and Psycho Soldier Team's Stage from KOF '96, the Rival Team Stage from KOF '95, the Sky Noah Stage from KOF 2003, the Clock Tower Stage from Fatal Fury 2, and the Temple and Dojo Stage from Art of Fighting 1 and 2 respectively.
- There are MULTIPLE character cameos in the Stages~! You can find the likes of Haohmaru from Samurai Shodown, Wanted Posters of Yamazaki, Rugal, Fio from Metal Slug, Wolfgang Krauser and Lilly Kane, and many more~!
That's all I got. I'm tiiiired.
Well these were some fun facts to hear, thank you for writing them.
I'm kinda hoping they release an "Ultra Kof13" in the future, with all planned characters. Even then, I love this game so much
Ain't nobody gonna read all what you typed but I gave you a like for the effort
@@iqcontent7797 I've heard you and other people say that and I've also heard people say the exact opposite of what you said.
The people have spoken. They like reading it. XP
This was one of my favorite KOF titles and you could definitely see all of the love that SNK put into it.
I feel that many of this MAX super are complements to normal/ex supers, a lot of them feel like the final hit with a lot of power and weight
cloudmv15 Truth
Max may despise Athena, but he gave her the respect that her super deserves especially considering that SNK considered her Neomax to be one of the harder supers to animate. And for that, I forgive him.
Now if only he did Kensou's command grab super...
I agree 100%
Kensou's command grab super is legendary
I hope Elisabeth returns in KOF XV.
Duolon and Shen Aswell
Ash alive again she might be back again
They should re release it for the Switch. Since terry is in Smash, I think people would be interested.
Why just for the switch why not for every console
You goddamn genius you. Get on this SNK!
OH YES PLEASE, perfect console for this! (and it will revive people's interest in dot art)
But is it possible for people to press two buttons?
@@junkyyard2273 What, you can do that?!
Max during the stream: "I don't play King of Fighters for the Shotos!"
Max when doing Ryo during Rate the Super: "Ryo seems like a lot of fun in this game."
Because Ryo has not a Shoto-style gameplan in this game.
@@Fedorchik1536 Ryo is literally a shoto regardless of the additional playstyle he has.
He's got a fireball, a dp, and a tastu-like attack. He's a shoto.
@@nybethobdilord6912 Except he doesn't have a fireball, Only fireball super.
On other hand, Terry has fireball, dp and tatsu-like attack. Ah, screw it. All these characters have fireball, dp and some sort of tatsu: Andy, Joe, Kyo, Benimaru, K', Kula, Karate, Robert, Saiki, King, Yuri, Athena, Kensou, even Ex Iori. Half of the cast are shotos, right?
@@Fedorchik1536 Ryo throughout the series has either had a fireball or a short dan-like fireball.
Yes. Shotos pretty much just refer to having those tools in the movelist.
@@nybethobdilord6912 Dan is functionally not a shoto.
Ryo does not play like a shoto. There are no true shotos in this game. You do not understand what a shoto is if you think every character with a leaping uppercut and a move where they throw ki is a shoto.
If you still believe Ryo is a shoto, I invite you to try to play him the way you would a shoto from SF, online. It will not work. You will lose.
I REALLY love the impact that some of these supers had
It definitely shows off just how powerful the attacks are
damn, looking back at this really makes 14 visuals depressing.
What happens when you put a lot of money into a game to where you go almost bankrupt
The models and animations are really good, its just the shading and lighting that hurts it
6:47 Gill called. He wants his super back.
Orochi did it first, though.
Time to return to harmony seraphic wings 🔥❄️
this game looks better than Street fighter third strike!! I'm a big fan of SNK!! Been a fan way before Capcom vs SNK came out when it became popular!! my first SNK game I played was fatal fury special back in 94 or 95 and since then I've been hooked and my friend closed his arcade and sold me one of his neo Geo arcade cabinates and it comes with 4-in-1 games!! the only thing I really want right now is a neo get pocket color, if anyone is selling one, tell me, I saw one on e-bay for 70$ hint hint lol i liked fatal fury and king of fighters before it was cool!! I also love metal slug series!!
IMO the sprites look better, but the animation in 3S is still better. It's a tie on my book.
That said! KoF XIII has more characters and more unique ones at that. 3S had several head swaps, 4 shotos, yun and yang, and gill and urien... it's like 8 characters for the price of 3.
@@eliasnicolasmiranda4940 kof 13 has the best graphics but SNK VS Capcom chaos has even better graphics!!
@@PSNMyfoot are you excited about Capcom Vs Konami!! it's gonna be awesome!!
Congratulations Haomaru, I was too busy thinking about how cool he is and didn't notice mai's boobage until max pointed out
Max: Terry's is ok
Terry: are you ok?!
I have a feeling that if a game this beautiful came out today, it would have made a lot of sales. Bummer this level of spritework probably won't be done by snk again
Next kof unreal engine might be 2.5D and i hope they used artstyle that fit kof
@@ameernurhaqeem9738 kof 14 was 2.5d
@@Theyungcity23 yes i know that but i mean what artsyle they would make for kof xv thats all
@@ameernurhaqeem9738 i wonder what the story will be
@@thekinggamer488 yeah me too i want to know what shun ei have to fight cuss he is the protagonist and kukri his rival we still dont know who is kukri yet and he also help elisabeth find ash
This game looks and sounds sho shatisfying.
I was kind of sad that he was using my main for practice, but I'm happy he gave her a 10/10
Same!!
That was because Max didn't like Athena's design of this game at all, that's why I use it as a punching bag.
@@andrako748
But that's a reminiscence to Athena's old Psycho Soldier appearance.
She's got thunder thighs.
Same dude
Iori's laugh and face at the start make his EX Super a 10/10 for me.
This game had some of the prettiest supers. The game itself looks super clean
@@natanoliveira554I assume you aren’t using your eyes right?
This is my favorite Athena design. Kawaii AND thicc? Hell yeah.
10:57 INFINITY!! PROTON CANNON!!!
3:33 context is everything: Ash is using Iori's flames.
And he's also using iori's leader move super form kof xi
Craziest supers I think are Kim, Ryo, Robert and Andy.
Goro's is awesome also, and they even added a sma detail with him finally opening his eyes.
Every content creator panicking about FTC and Coppa.. meanwhile..
Max : "Lets deep dive into this game.."
Me : Cool supers !
Strider Hiryu I mean, Max doesn’t specifically target kids in his material- so I don’t think he’s worried...
Well I do hope FTC/Coppa think so too.. They flagged all animation/anime including the offbrands so I think they'd flag all gaming too following that logic.
The best KOF game but the one that nearly killed SNK damn I have mixed emotions about this game.
You better fucking appreciate it.
5 out of 10 for Terry?!?!?! The over head double fist ground pound?!?! Max...that was at least a 9. The majority of 13 is 8-10 hype level supers
This is the best fighting game in all aspects except the net code. Graphics, balance, and most importantly fun is allowed!! KOFXIII is my all time favorite and I’m glad Max is finally giving it a chance and it’ll hopefully become his favorite too.
I think Max likes Athena's super so much because it's basically Knights of the Round.
All I can say is: Poor Athena.
Does max hate Athena ? She's best girl
She deserves every single hit and more.
^ the duality of man. And I'm on the latter side of the spectrum.
She'll live
I enjoy beating Athena too.
Is this the KoF that nearly caused SNK bankruptcy... a second time?
Yep and snk rise again to make kof xv
I can certainly see why
This and KoF12, which was basically KoF13 beta. It took them 6 years to animate just 31 characters for this game, during which time no other games came out. It only took about 2 years to create 50 characters for KoF14, and that game sold much better than KoF13 despite negative reactions to the art style. Now they've launched Samurai Shodown with only 16 characters, and that sold much better than KoF13 too. That's just the nature of things at this point. You can't invest that much time and money developing a game for a niche segment of an already niche genre, it's suicide. You can maybe get away with that for a game like Cuphead that's a novelty that anyone can pick up and play, but not for one of the most difficult fighting games ever made. Like even ultra scrubby jumpkick-into-sweep combos have tight timing in KoF13.
@@maninredhelm would it cost them much to port this to modern consoles
KOF is so underrated as a series. It deserves alot more credit and popularity then it gets. You can see all of the passion and work that went into this game. I really hope KOF XV whenever it releases succeeds.
KOF 14 had some of that but only in the music and dialogue.
@@sladejosephwilson2300 Eh, I disagree on that. Honestly I didnt like KOF XIV's soundtrack outside of a few songs. The dialogue though I would agree with you on.
@@bwareist I meant the rival themes which are remixes of older themes. No one cares about the new soundtrack.
The really cool thing about Andy's super is when you catch them in an air combo.
Quit teasing us, Max!
Just do a Rate The Super for KoF XIV!
I too want to see this
Fun fact :in kof 14 , kyo's neomax is basically his father's super without the fire pillar
Whenever Ralph does his neo max i always yell, " gear segundo!"
8:00 Kims is just Raging Demon if it was done by a good guy.
7:32 anyone remember EVO 2012 grand finals? "Burn your fist in the sky!"
11:35 This is what I came here for, Easily Her best Super. And they Ruined it in Allstar. I get that it saves memory not having her switch outfits (which she also did in kof 2002), but in that case it should've been a sprite based game. And that would've been for the best because the smiling animations in AllStar look terrible.
You are comparing a console game’s graphics to a mobile game’s graphics. How do you even?
@@SenatorArmstrong2018 but kof xiii is on phone too(albeit under a different name)
Can't believe people preferred SF4 over this. But that was always the bad luck-scenario with SNK, their games were better but underrated. KOFXIII was the best one since 2000 to me even though I loved 2003.
Snk is underatted they also make the first super in FGC also make first power bar first crossover game kof and also first tag team kizuna counter game yep underatted
Because SF4 was a return to form for SF compared to KOF fans still sticking to 98 and 02
How dare people like different games.
I love how they wreck the shit out of Athena and then she stands up and goes: "Daijobu!" xDDD
Not a fan of some of these design tbh. Amazing spritework of course.
After 6 years begging for this it actually happened.
What a great time to be alive…
Ryo's super is probably my favorite, just a BIG BEEFY PUNCH!
Somehow it look worst in kof15
THIS GAME IS GORGEOUS
Wow I just got this game today on steam sale. It looks and plays so smooth, maybe even better than Blazblue centralfiction.
I love Ash's, 'cause that's Iori's purple flame which he stole from him.
If max do super move and neomax with ash it looks more cool
I kinda wished that he uses Chizuru's power in that super.
@@llamadelreyii3369 Yeah, like having 2 ash's use the flame or something.
@@iheartdanna Yes, someting like this would be a lot better.
The fun thing about Kensou's "redesign" it's it's actually a REGRESSION. In Psycho Soldiers, the game he debuts in with Athena as a "Psycho Soldier" that was his original look..you can actually see this with the SNK Archives version of the game on Swtich.
Exactly it isn't a redesign. That was his original look
@@blaze6477 I believe Athena's look is the same as she had in that game as well so for them it's a closer more HD look at their original looks..and tbh I liked Leona's look..Ralf and Clark...eh..not so much..too much muscle made them look roided out, other than that I could have lived with it.
@@ShinKyuubi I think Athena's design in Psycho Soldiers the color of the uniform was navy blue, but everything else is the same as that design.
@@andrako748 Just looked up a pic, and yeah her sailor fuku is a navy blue the whole way, they even made her hair pinker for 13 when it's been a pretty regular purple color in pretty much every other KOF game like her 1st appearance in Athena. One of her alternate colors you can choose is pretty much her Psycho Soldier appearance though...And I looked up a list of SNK games..Athena is the first SNK female pretty much to have any relevance. Athena came out in 1986 and pretty much all the arcade games before that didn't have a human lead except for Fantasy...the only named character though is Cheri, your wife/girlfriend/whatever that you have to save. They were mostly vehicle games like shooting games or racing games..so yeah..no wonder she shows up so much in SNK stuff.
Max giving Andy a high rating?! Who are you and what did you do with Max
Poor Athena :(
Ralph's super is literally Luffy's Jet Gatling Gun, that's why there's the steam. It's a One Piece reference.
finally someone that noticed, the name of the super is also a reference its called Jet Vulcan
11:35 I love that when Max saw Athena's design in this game he said she looked awful, but despite that when Max saw her Neo Max he said she has the best one in the game.
P.S: Being honest this is my favorite Athena design, call me whatever you want but it is undeniable that at least it is better than that of KOF XIV.
Isn't XIII Athena just her old Psycho Soldier design?
The Black One Looks Pretty Cool, The Normal One Looks Meh
kof 99
@@hyliandoctor yup, Kensou also has His Original Design
@@Next-xm2dh Yes, the black / dark-blue version is the one I like the most.
Yo real talk, hoping Duck King is in the new KoF game. Other than that, keep up the great work Max you rock!
Jesus the backgrounds in this game look amazing. Noticed a few cameos too.
KOF 13 best fighting game ever made the only fighting game I actually have 500+ hours in, so sad pvp is dead
500+ hrs ???
Theres no pvp because you killed everyone 👌🏾
