Not strictly KoF-related, but this seems to be more of a general SNK Fighting Games topic, so. :V
I just beat Real Bout Fatal Fury Special for the first time - on the easiest difficulty, just like the above poster - and weirdly had way more trouble with Laurence Blood than any other fighter. Anyway, I eventually want to beat Nightmare Geese, but to even get to him, I understand I need AAA rankings on every fight, so it's going to take some work.
First of all, how do I do throws in this game? I think in KoF XIV to do throws you need to hit a heavy attack button plus forward or back while right up close to the opponent, but SNK tends to be a bit less consistent than Capcom with these inputs, so. Second, I'm playing the Switch port which comes with a move list - thankfully - and I keep seeing a 'forward > down-back > forward' input for certain SP or PP attacks (level 1 and 2 supers, respectively) - is that basically a DP input? I mean, it seems like you'd need to do a 'Z' motion with the stick to do it, which is basically a DP. :V
"If you think like a child, you will do a child's work."Terry's Super Special in Real Bout is very difficult. It is much easier to do in KOF games, and no, it is not a DP.

Other than that, good list. And I cracked up at Lousie's entry
Is Shion actually balanced? I really liked playing him, which is weird for a subboss given how bare bones their movesets tend to be.
How do you unlock the Nightmare Geese fight in Real Bout Special, anyway? I was initially under the impression that it had to do with getting average AAA ranks, but then elsewhere on this site it says you just need to get a certain score after beating Krauser.
"If you think like a child, you will do a child's work."For arcade ports you need 750k points, to never lose once, and to never get a ranking lower than a B.
Magaki is still the most annoying. Who wants bullet hell in fighting games?!

The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.Something that just came to me; Would it be feasible to have Astraios from Athena: Awakening from the Ordinary Life as a Playable Character in a King of Fighters game?

She looks great.
How does this game's monetization work? if there's a gacha, what do you gacha for? Characters?
Characters and equipment.
And is it relatively balanced, or are some 5 stars much better than others?
Gold borders (5 stars) have a definitive advantage over lower tiers and in turn, they're outclassed by the FES units (the highest rarity in the game). That said, while a lot of FES units are broken, gold borders have a wider range of skills available and can make for very effective teams on their own right.

Seems like we're getting a gender bender Original Zero.
The silhouette kinda makes her look like Kula Diamond.
The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.Huh Gandara's AST theme shares the same sample as the orochi yashiro's AST theme. Cool

They used that sample in a lot of SNK songs - it was back in Todoh's theme in AOF 1 and you hear it before every fight in KOF 97, too.
I finally beat MOTW with Hotaru... on the easiest difficulty, and cheated Kain's health bar.
