King of Fighters XI

[Agozer]

A good amount of characters once again.

[Daeval]

I don't entirely understand some of the teams, but it looks like a good roster overall. People mostly seem to be impressed with it. I'm anxious now.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Ash/ Ozwald/ Shen-Wu - Evil/Old man/Smart Street brawler

K'/ Kula/ Maxima - It was hinted that K` and Kula would of teamed up with either Maxima or Whip.

Terry/ Kim/ Duck - Duck pretty much knows Terry and Kim

B.Jenet/ Gato/ Griffon - MOTW team, no idea

Kyo/ Iori/ Shingo - Shingo = TF?

Vanessa/ Mary/ Ramon - Agents team

Ralf/ Clark/ Whip - Original Concept Ikari 96 team

Ryo/ Yuri/ King - All 3 are trying to find Takuma's attacker while Robert takes care of Takuma

Marin/ Kasumi/ Eiji - (softly hinted) Eiji is Takuma's attacker, Kasumi still has a grudge against Ryo and Marin...have yet to establish her connection.

Elisabeth/ Duolong/ Benimaru - All going after Ron

Athena/ Kensou/ Momoko - Pyscho Soliders Team Version 3.

I didn't draw the "agents team" connection, nice.

 

The Ash team still seems arbitrary, but it always kind of did.

 

Duck seems like an odd man out with Kim and Terry - I always thought he was a bad guy? Another one of Kim's convicts? hehe..

 

Griffon teaming up with outlaws?

 

Why does Kasumi hold a grudge against Ryo and Marin? What the heck do Ryo and Marin have to do with each other? Forgive me for not pouring through miles of story FAQ. And I thought Eiji was dead - have they explained that yet?

 

Who the heck is Momoko?

 

 

Edit: And I just realized - No Mai!

Duck King opened a bar with King. The very same bar level that is King's.

Griffon teaming up with outlaws?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Simplistically, it's just the MOTW team right now.

Eiji is very well alive, they just didn't use him, he also has a grudge on the whole Kyokugen line. Kasumi still holds a grudge against Ryo for him beating her Father (TOOODOOOO) and Marin, looks like I have to beat 2k3 again if it has any relvence. I really hope they fixed all the screwed up sprites (Marin, Gato, Terry espiecally).

 

Edit:

 

Who the heck is Momoko?

 

 

Edit: And I just realized - No Mai!

Momoko = new, or maybe from another SNK game. No one knows.

 

Their giving some of the vets a break from the game. If anything, most likely will be a hidden character.

So is that list 100% confirmed? Sorry if this has been answered before.

Yes, the roster is 100% confirmed. No news yet on the hidden characters, if their are any.

[Diso]

Nice Roster. Too bad this game will most likely not be in any arcades around here. Prolly have to make a trip to the Philippines and check if its there when it gets released :/

[Nusumenai]

Like all HK comics. They have no relavence because they aren't part of the offical canon

 

Alittle of topic.

 

Where does the official canon come from? I mean... The 2-3 scenes in game don't really add up to a story (with the exception of 96-97), and though the ending provides some information... Not everyone can be the winners of the tourny.

[kaioshade]

I could be wrong, but i believe the story is based on the kyo, iori, and chizuru ending

Not everyone wins, their endings only correspond to the events that take place right after, during or month(s) after the tournament.

 

How 2k3 went down;

 

Hero Team faught Adel (and won), the Three Sacred Treasures team faught Mukai during that very same time.

 

The Sacred Treasures team's ending happens after the Hero Team have already disbanded. While K` team's ending happens during the events of the Treasures team. Also during that time, Leona's and Yamakazi's Orochi blood begins to boil, leading them both to attack their teammates in their respective team endings. All other team endings are response to being eliminated(either during or afterwards) from the King of Fighters tournament. Example of this is Takuma gets attacked AFTER the Kyokugen team arrives back home as the Garou Team's ending happens right after they lose. An execption of Benimaru's Team ending. Which happens after all of Ikari, Outlaw, K` Team, Garou Team, Korea Team but before the High School Girls team, Kyokugen team and basically all the other teams that aren't mentioned.

 

Basically it's up to the fans to tie up the loose ends when it comes to the canon since Imyoa doesn't seem to really care about continuity that much.

 

The Hero team always wins KOF. No matter what. It's practically an unwritten rule.

 

This year's KOF is following story speculations; Ash is going after the remainding Sacred Treasures (Kyo and Iroi) [this is basically the nut shell for the game] and the side plots of; Who attacked Takuma (most likely Eiji) and Blue Mary's investagation with Ramon and Vanessa (both are under new mangament now). Of course theres still other sideplots like with the MOTW team (so far, only Gato has a mission, and it's the same one in MOTW, to find his father), Benimaru team which everyone there is somewhat after Ron for personal reasons (Benimaru hates Ron for attacking Lin for example) and K` Team, them going to find out what caused K`s power to freak out.

[L.S.D]

I dun remember the ending mention Ron anywhere
