------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------- [ T h e K i n g O f F i g h t e r s ' 9 9 ] Episode 5 "The Millenium Battle" -------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ FAQ -v5.01 REACTIVE FINAL- by Gunsmith -The last things that you want to know: - The Iori striker combos. Iori's flame must hit the opponent as they land from a jump. - Not all the combos work. Please refer to Serpent Wave's combo FAQ. - ALL Infinite Bugs are explained here: http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/8561/ - Yes, Jhun is a big fan of Athena. Calvin said he spotted confirmation in the Technical Mook. This explains all the Manga frolics that you have seen. - All speech and vs introductions are in a updated form in a seperate "Speech FAQ" available only at www.gamefaqs.com - Omake Teams COMPLETE! - There are one or two more bugs. Bulletin Board will advertise development. - Is something burning in your heart, that you feel you need to tell the world through this FAQ? .... Email. -After Feb 1st, there will be no further updates to this FAQ. Anything else of interest will be posted on the Bulletin Board. If you want to know a quote translation please email me or post on the bulletin board. -Within this FAQ, you will find movelists, combos, infinites, bugs, story, bio, speech translations, winposes descrip, endings, neo geo CD info, and all manner of miscellaneous information on the game. This FAQ works as an companion to Kao Megura's FAQ, in which you will find detailed move description (including which moves work in combos in counter mode), movelist translation, dip switch info and more! What you won't find in this FAQ is an attempt to copy from other FAQs. This FAQ started on the 30th July and is ongoing. I don't see how another FAQ on KOF'99 can possibly have "found out" their own information as, to put it bluntly, it was here first. Kao Megura sent me a translation list which I have now removed as he has his own faq. This FAQ is made from my own efforts of researching information and helpful contributions sent to me or posted on the Bulletin Board at my homepage. They get credit. We deserve credit. Don't be fooled by FAQ's which are double- spaced in order to look bigger or claim to be working on getting info which IS ALREADY HERE. Beware of cheap imitations. "Innovate, don't imitate" (C) Hugo Boss 1998, 1999, 2000 Updates-- 18th Jan - I'm back but there isn't much more to add. Little corrections here and there... I noticed Neo Geo Website has released quote info for the first time! Taken out most speech where it's just the character shouting the name of the move unless it's different translation to that of Kao or he never translated it. If you want to know translations of moves that have been in the game since KOF '97, simply refer to Kao Megura's '97 Faq. There are some differences with my translation, though... 19th Dec - Released this version at Gamefaqs since no-one is obviously in touch with the minor updates at the homepage. This version still needs some tidying up with the new info I got, but I'll be away till 10th January... Merry Christmas! 17th Dec - Woah, busy bee! Sat down with Mai-chan and went through the soundtrack comparing notes with Kao's KOF 97 Faq. Mai gave up by the time we got to Women Team. Anyway, we've updated the quotes. Found some quotes I can't match to the game.... hmmm..... well, some got translated and some didn't. Time to call on Kao for some discussion. David, I wan't my jishou back!

Correcting stuff and adding. Original Movelist by Charles of PaoPao Cafe Pao Pao Cafe Presents . SNK NeoGeo Mook 005 http://welcome.to/paopaocafe Visit for the latest SNK fighting game news! rewritten by Gunsmith of Wu-Tech Corp. I've taken ChaRle5!'s FAQ (with his permission) and replaced the keypad("236" etc) notation with joystick notation("QCF" etc.) What I've added: Extra Bios, more moves, story, endquotes, movenames and more technical info. ------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------Only one can surpass K.

Credits ==================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ [1. T R A N S L A T I O N N O T E S-----------------------------] ------------------------------------------------------------------ ==================================================================== The format of the faq is now in original Japanese names only. I had started doing translations but I've erased them to give way to Kao Megura's FAQ. Please refer to his FAQ for these. This season I've worked predominantly on quotes. Of course, Kao Megura's KOF 97 FAQ gave me cause to double check the translations I found using his research. Great work, Kao! Originally, it was just me, Mai-chan and several dictionaries. Kao popped up and we discussed the transition of Japanese to English. What you don't realise is that some official English movenames from SNK USA are totally different to the original japanese movename. This gets confusing. When we translate, we use literal meaning and common sense that's appropriate for fighters. I didn't agree on some things with Kao, but now that he has his own FAQ you can make up your own mind. In some cases we are both right, even though we give different translations. Remember that Japanese has many meaning for the same word. Same like other languages if you think about it. If I write something different for the same word, don't worry; it's correct in that context - Different meanings for different situations. Of course there could still be some errors, so email me if you feel perplexed that you're not imitating your favourite character correctly... Once again, the japanese version has multiple end quotes for each character :( If the character says something when they do a move and it's not listed, that means they are shouting the actual name of the move which is in the movelist. If you're not convinced, leave a message on the bulletin board or email me. ==================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ [2. L E G E N D--------------------------------------------------] ------------------------------------------------------------------ ==================================================================== --Game Control-- In a Neo Geo format, The buttons are arranged like thus: A B C D A = light punch B = light kick C = hard punch D = hard kick Start = Taunt --FAQ Terminology-- Q = Quarter H = Half C = Circle F = Forward B = Back UF = Up-Forward UB = Up-Back Fwd = Forward Bk = Back DP = Dragon Punch Motion (Fwd, Dwn, Dwn Fwd) RPD = Reverse DP Special = generally speaking, a fighting move that takes energy off opponent even if blocked and requires a input on the joystick and button. DM = Desperation Move. The last ditch, last resort move! Summon all your strength for one last try to blow away the opposition! Well, that's how it used to be... *reminisces Fatal Fury II - sigh* SDM = Super Desperation Move Lag = Delay Time Foe = Your opponent, like P2 or whatever (A) Move = Press a button and your character performs a move. Command Move = Press a button and joystick direction (eg Fwd) and some characters do another move. Buffer = Use a movement that doesn't execute a move but saves the input in preparation for the next. Juggle = As an opponent is thrown into the air from a hit, you can hit them again. Wake up = As you are getting up from being knocked over. Hld/Hold/ Charge = Keep direction or button held down Chain = Link normal moves and optionally command moves together in a combo. Eg: Stand C, Fwd A. CM = Counter Mode AM = Armour Mode @CR = Put opponent in corner @NCR = Put opponent a pace away from corner (so striker can hit) x i = repeat infintely ne? = Japanese for "surely?" or "right?". I say it all the time and don't even notice. ==================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ [3. G A M E S Y S T E M-----------------------------------------] ------------------------------------------------------------------ ==================================================================== (facing right) Running Dash : Fwd Fwd Back Step : Back Back Hop : Bk-Up or Up or Up-Fwd instantly Medium Jump : When running : Bk-Up or Up or Up-Fwd. From standing: Bk Down + Bk-Up or Up or Up-Fwd. Jump : Hold Bk-Up or Up or Up-Fwd. Guard Cancel : when blocking AB or foward/ backward AB (needs 1 power guage stock) Throw Forward : When close, Bk/Fwd + C Throw Backward : When close, Bk/Fwd + D Throw off : At the instant of being thrown, Bk or Fwd + any button. Note that multihit throws such as Joe's D throw and Bao's C throw cannot be thrown off. Heavy Attack : C+D Guard Cancel Blow off: when blocking C+D(need 1 power guage stock) Guard Crush : In general, block 13 hits in succession and your guard breaks! If you can time it, you can get a free combo! Tech Roll : A+B when landing after being hit. You cannot Tech Roll some particular moves... Mid-Air block : Bk-Up or Bk or Bk-Dwn when performing up /backward jump Slide Dodge (+Attack): forward/ backward + A+B (if fwd + any button to attack) (NOTE: The slide backwards will automatically force you forward again BUT you can stop this with a special move) Striker System : B+C Counter Mode Activate: A+B+C (need 3 power guage stocks) Armor Mode Activate : B+C+D (need 3 power guage stocks) --System Info: The CM and AM modes-- -Counter Mode: You need 3 stocks for this. In this mode, you can do DM/SDM (depending on red energy bar) ad infinitum (Some DMs come out quicker than others, these are the ones you can combo with) Skilled players will prefer to use this mode in combos, as you can combo certain special moves into SDMs;eg:Terry QCF+A into QCFx2+B... Counter Mode lasts for approx 18 seconds. After that you can't charge stock for about 10 seconds. -Armor Mode: You need 3 stocks for this. In this mode, when you get hit you don't get "damaged"- you don't get the animation and recovery time that you would normally. You still lose energy though. The real bonus is you won't suffer any tick damage from blocked specials in this mode. Note: You do get pushed back when you get hit so you can't try stupid stuff like walking through a fat combo to get in a throw- you will lose too much energy to compensate. Armour mode lasts for approx. 9 seconds. After that you can't charge stock for about 10 seconds. -Slide Dodge/ Attack: This is the combined Advanced and Extra Mode of KOF '98. If you press A+B + Back, you slide back but then hop forward automatically (You cannot Dodge Attack). You can cancel the hop forward by performing a special move. In counter mode you can combo a special move with dodge attack. If you press A+B while blocking you will cancel guard and slide forward/backward (costs 1 stock) In counter mode you can combo a Command attack with dodge attack. -Striker System: Press B+C to call out your striker. You are invincible for the second that you call out the striker. You will taunt and then the striker appears, so forget about using them as part of a combo. However you can use them as combo starters as some will hold the opponent or set up a juggle! More on this in each teams section. Note: Some Strikers do more than one action depending on the opponent's actions... -DM/SDM: The return of the red flashing energy! Woohoo! You need 1 stock to execute a DM. Well, if you have 1/7 energy left, when you do DM it will be SDM. Actually this is proving to be quite annoying; With 1 stock Terry can do some serious SDM damage if he can connect with a Stand C (arguably the easiest combo starter in the game) -Stocks: Every time you do a special move or block attacks, your bar fills up. Once it is full, it empties and an icon appears next to indicate a stock. You can build up to three. However, Stocks DO NOT transfer to the next player. So you may as well use them like crazy if you are about to die. -Character Selection: The sequence is now secret to your opponent. The characters are listed according to buttons A B C D respectively. Press the buttons in the order you want to play the characters. If you want to reveal your character order, hold start while selecting characters. -Color Selection: Hit B when selecting characters. Only two colours available this year :( -Selecting Winpose: Hold the corresponding button as soon as you've defeated your opponent. This works for Timeout win also. --Control Shortcuts-- The shorcut control system still exists in '99. DP + P/K can be executed thus: Fwd, (neutral), Dwn-Fwd + P/K P + QCF + P can be executed thus: Fwd, Dwn-Fwd + P (hold P), Fwd P + QCFx2 + P can be executed thus: QCF, Down, Down Forward + P (hold P), Fwd - The same method applies with HCF combos Low B, Low A, QCFx2 + A can be exectued thus: Dwn + B, QCF + A, QCF + A P, QCF HCB + P can be executed thus: QCF, Down-Forward, Down, Down-Back + P (hold P), Back Where there is no special move designated for a movement EG: HCB will not do anything for Clark use it to buffer a combo. EG: HCB + P, HCB + P (Clark) will execute P, HCBx2 + P When you hold a button, no special moves can be performed and you cannot run. However, it allows you to buffer moves. Eg Clark Hold A, HCF + C, (let go A), HCF + D will execute: C, HCFx2 + D HCF etc can be executed thus: Back, Dwn, Fwd (only good for keyboard users o_O) note this doesn't work for QCF. Low x, x, QCFx2 DM/SDM Eg Ryo Do Dwn B, QCF + A, QCF + A In counter mode, motions which overlap DMs are effective. Eg Terry: QCF + A, QCF + B will do: Power Wave, High Angle Geyser. While running, you can charge for a move. Eg Leona Fwd Fwd, Hold Down Fwd, then press Up + P when you want to execute Moonslasher. --Illustration-- I've noted that the guy/gal who illustrated the KOF 98 intro (not the match end graphics, which were horrible I might add) is now fully illustrating all the character potraits in KOF 99... which are niiiiice! :) ==================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ [4. P R O L O G U E S T O R Y-----------------------------------] ------------------------------------------------------------------ ==================================================================== Invitation cards were sent to fighters all over the world. A new King of Fighters tournament would be held. However, there was no grand media attention like last year The fighters wondered who was behind this years organisation? There was a new rule in the regulations: Striker Match! Many couldn't conceal their bewilderment at this. It had never been done before... Heidern felt suspicious and sends Ralf, to investigate the organisation behind the tournament. Benimaru is invited to KOF as a member of a special team: his team members include two names he had never heard before; K' and Maxima.... though Beni is perplexed as he had never heard of these names in the grapple field, he boldly accepted. What is the Striker match? Is there something hidden in the tournament? Various mysteries are conceived, and so the saga continues... ==================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ [5. M O V E L I S T S--------------------------------------------] ------------------------------------------------------------------ ==================================================================== -------------------------------------------------------------------- Heroes Team -------------------------------------------------------------------- Benimaru received the invitation to the King of Fighters Tournament again, as usual. But he found that two boxes at his team entry are already occupied by two new names: K' and Maxima... What's the deal about that? -------------------------------------------------------------------\ K'-----------------------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------------------------/ Place of Birth : Unknown Fighting Style : Violence Age : Between 16 and 18 DOB : Unknown Blood Type : Unknown Height : 183 cm Weight : 65 kg Hobby : None Favorite food : Beef Jerky Best sport : None (K' isn't good at sports) Important thing : None Hated thing : KOF Winpose A : Stands with right hand aflame.

If they opponent is jumping he'll do Crow Bite. o-K'--------------------------------------------Speech-------------o [Round Start] Takes off sunglasses and says "Ore hitori de, juubun da..."

[Recovery Roll] "Yarujya ne ka" (Oh you're good eh?) [QCFx2 + P] "Owari ni suruze" (I'll finish it) Unsorted: "katazuketeyaruze" o-K'--------------------------------------------Miscellaneous------o -K's invincibility during his Dodge is instant. He is only invincible for the first frame of the AB Dodge. Trying to dodge through attacks with more than 1 frame of attack is suicide. To dodge fireballs, K' has to dodge at the very last second. -If you charge K's QCFx2 + C DM or SDM, it's unblockable. -When K's idle, he goes to sleep too! (but the 'sleeping' animation is not as nice as Bao) He will put his hands on his hips, blinks slower and slower...and then his eyes will be shut. o-K'--------------------------------------------Interesting Combos-o [email protected]: Jump D, Stand C (1 hit), Fwd A, QCF+A, Fwd D, DP + C, Fwd D [email protected]: Jump D, Stand C (1 hit), Fwd A, QCF + A, Fwd D, QCF x 2 + P [email protected]: King Striker, QCF x 2 + P, QCF A, Fwd B, QCF x 2 + P [email protected]: Stand C, QCF + A, Fwd D, Walk Fwd into corner, Call Kasumi so she comes in and juggles, QCF A, Fwd D, Call Kasumi etc..

It depends on which Earring Bomb 2 she uses first; RDP + B ---> QCB + B or D = Bomb is thrown short distance and can juggle. RDP + D ---> QCB + B or D = Bomb is thrown far. -Bomb 2 takes approx 3.48 to detonate but will defuse if Leona gets hit. After attaching the bomb, you can continue to combo but it doesn't show on the combo meter. -There are ways to avoid getting hit by Bomb 2... I've jumped "out" of it with Clark once... there are other "freaky" occasions.... -Is Leona the only character with multiple animation for sitting down? She sits down, flicks her hair, waits, then does a "I'm ready to catch" pose! Also when she stands, she bounces around then stops, holds her hands out and freezes, then goes back to the bounce.
