Athena just HAD to be here. I swear, you can’t go through one single KOF game without hearing “Psycho Ball” in quick succession. It’s basically the “Summertime Lovin’” of the series and easily one of the most spammable projectile in the game. Btw, thank you for an informative and yet entertaining list, Shoryugamer. Maybe Bao not being playable spares all zoner haters from his wrath. XD
Shoryugame: I don't wanna deal with Bao in KoF XV SNK: Glad you asked, here are the fighters of the next DLC: Bao, Momoko and Malin, the "Smol Annoying Brats team". You're welcome.
Bao: Reject humanity become fireball! Great list Shoryugame. I know there is a difference between Zoners and Keep away characters. Zoners just excel at long-range combat but Keep Away characters' playstyles are built around actively avoiding close combat.
Seeing Meitenkun on the list shows that you shouldn't underestimate the sleepy kid with the pillow. That will be the last thing you'll see before getting knocked out. XD Jokes aside, the list is quite well made and it shows!
Krauser was a noticeable omission, but my money is on Lucky Glauber. The trajectory of his basketballs are difficult to predict in the middle of a hot match, and his Terry Bogard-style anti-airs and his teleport make him a force in the hands of a practiced player.
08:14 :D Robert has been through some rude changes along the series... The Shoto version will always remain my favorite 11:57 : Same thing with Joe for me !! Haha !
another great video, so happy to see ur Hibiki video did that well didnt think Hibiki was that popular so i think it was mainly ur skills making a great vid!
Thank you! Hibiki was already popular but not as popular as she really deserves to be. Hopefully my video helped shedding some light on her awesome character.
Surprised Krauser didn’t make the list considering he’s basically SNK’s Sagat. Throwing high/low Blitz balls and following up with his other specials when an opponent tries rolling past them was pretty much how I blew through KOF 96’s arcade mode when using him.
Krauser is fucking legend his best version is realbout. Hope we get to see him again. He's the few snk boss that actually has no evil scheme he just fight you for the glory of winning and losing.
that was good shoryu , maybe you will make top 10 Rushdowners , Grappelers or all rounders lists next (also still waiting on that top 10 Husbando list 🤔🤔)
I played King alot, but not spam her venom strike that much, her moves are just fast, satisfice animation and awesome easy to follow combo. She's that good even without her projectile.
I play King and I love her so much. She was one of the first characters do SNK I ever played and she is literally perfect for my play style. Not to mention her design. I don’t regret anything, I will zone you out for fun if you don’t respect my Venom/Double Strike(s)!
Bao ain't the only one who's Hitbox was ridiculously too small to land a Punch, remember how freaking small Choi's Hitbox was since KOF 94, But hey, at least it ain't like Yoda from Soul Calibur 4 and Gon from the Japanese Tekken 3 port.
You know what is funny? According to official info, Mui Mui is the shortest character in the KOF series. Yep, she is shorter than Bao and Choi but she doesn't have the same hitbox issue like them (?) 🤔 I mean, she is already good in KOF XIV and SNK Heroines but a smaller hitbox would make her an annoying character to play against.
I know there is a difference between Zoners and Keep Away characters. Zoners just excel at long-range combat but Keep Away characters' playstyles are built around actively avoiding close combat. Imagine if Ninon Beart enters the mainline games one day. She would be a zoner, that's for sure.
Zoners have always been around since fighting games were conceived and KOF is no exception. On one hand, they're fun to use as they can be easy to play but on the other hand, they can be annoying to contend with since they can drive you mad. 10) Having that for Duo Lon is a benefit. Also he reminds me of Dhalsim with his stretchy arms and Kid Buu with the whole leg coming out of the ground thing. 9) I never dealt with the boss version of Omega Rugal but at least with this, I say that this eye beam makes up for it. At least it's not the Kaiser Wave. Still waiting for when Krauser comes to KOF again. 8) I enjoy Robert no matter the game and yes, he changed a lot and since KOF 13, he reverted back to his old style. Though NESTS Robert though, he's really fun. Yes, I love playing as Guile in Street Fighter but having them charge based can lead to some careful tactical planning. If he was like Guile fully with similar combos, he'd be busted with that high damage output. 7) Ash is an interesting zoner in terms of his projectiles. That and the EX of his move can really add the pain. Like NESTS Robert, he fits the Guile archetype to a T. 6) Athena was always consistent no matter what KOF game when she appears. And yes, in 98, why they made her voice louder when she says Psycho Ball. Jeez. 5) I love Kensou in KOF. I wish he was in 15 but yeah, he's just that fun since he has fast fireballs, fast sweeps and serious combo opportunities. I enjoy playing as him in KOF 98 because holy crap, he can hit hard. 4) Since Fatal Fury, this guy is the definition of annoying when it comes to his projectiles. The hitbox in them is big. Real big, depending on the game. In KOF 15, I hate this guy especially when if you dodge his Hurricane Upper, he can go into either his Thrust Kick or his Tiger Kick. That's unfair. 3) King is the queen of zoners for a reason and depending on the game, she can be one of the best or one of the worst. Not to mention she's one of many characters who can have different moves be supers and vice versa. I still remember in XI that she can throw fireballs in 3 different trajectories. That's the definition of a zoner. Also she has many moves that are safe on block. 2) This little brat is a pain. Meitenkun is not only an annoying zoner but a brat that is just a pain in the ass. Getting rekt by pillows is embarrassing. And yes, the EX version is like a jump scare especially the heavy version. Honorable Mentions: I know Andy had projectiles but thing was, he underwent some changes where he didn't have projectiles. Hell, the NESTS saga gave his Hisshouken Heavy a multi-hit close projectile. Thank god from KOF 13, he's back to how he should be but I miss his multi-hitting Shoryudan he had. But yeah, his Zan'ei ken is good. Also I like Heidern since his projectile was a charge base. He had a motion one in 2001 but he's still annoying to play. Takuma is awesome with his projectiles though. 1) Bao, Bao, Bao... bloody hell. This guy is a zoner to an extreme. Jeezus. Having horizontal, bouncing diagonal, vertical, air based, super, gravitational and even human fireballs is just insane. I'm serious. If Bao was in KOF15, they would nerf the hell out of this guy because he would be top tier or Tier 0. Nice list dude. They never disappoint.
Not until earlier this year did I learn King was a Zoner. Everytime I fight her I get annoyed and I also play her but it never clicked into my head that she was a Zoner.
And the best thing, I love playing as zoners and most of characters on this list are favorites to me. Now that I've learned about Bao's potential, feel bad for who's gonna face me, they're gonna suffer a lot.
The new Awakened Shermie would probably make a honorable mention due to how her ex projectile when she sends it in from behind the opponent can basically interrupt their combos and this is compounded by the fact if she is hit out of it the projectile STILL comes out
Can you make a new video called Top 10 forgotten characters in the King of Fighters series?: 10. Sho Hayate (Gai Tendo has a hard super, Silber is a cameo in Krohnen’s outfit, and Jazu is from one of your best videos). 9. Adelheid Bernstein (not mentioned in any Shun’ei saga interview so far). 8. Eiji Kisaragi (the most forgotten stand alone character in the Orochi saga, only being known as the one beaten up by Iori in 95) 7. Nameless (not forgotten by players but SNK. Possible idea to revive him is for him to be the 10000th Kyo clone instead right after K9999 (Krohnen) and for the KOF all star plot to have happened before K’ reached Igniz and for Nameless and Isolde to be revived by ReVerse). 6. Momoko (only present after XI in Psycho Soldiers endings) 5. Duck King (of course) 4. Hwa Jai (not present in XII unlike Raiden) 3. Love Heart and Mui Mui (since the Pachinko rights were sold) 2. Nadj (also didn’t make it to XV for copyright reasons) Honorable mentions: Wolfgang Krauser, Malin, Alice, Gai Tendo, Foxy, Diana, Candy, Ron, Saishyu Kusanagi. 1. The American Sports Team (of course, but the biggest mystery is who was going to be the striker/4th member before the agents of the Yagami team attacked in 2001?)
Good list but what about the KOF Maximum Impact characters? Most if not all of them are very forgotten these days. Xiao Lon only appeared in one game Also, F for Love Heart and Mui Mui 😢
And you didn't even mention that Bao has a reflect AND a fireball reflect lol I love playing him, would be happy if he comes back to KOF XV or some future titles.
Bao is my favorite character from all the KOF games. Even I have a playlist of videos of Bao where this fight or some other where he talks about him or his story.
Ah yes, the best of the best from K.o.F. This series really is best defined by zoners and rushdowns imo Maybe I'm just biased but it's like sweet n sour. It just feels complimentary.
For a while now I wanted to get into KOF and I started with KOF 15 and which I love to use k’ shermie, and Meitenkun who I didn’t know was a zoner only because I’m not really good at fighting games
Great video! lol @ telling Athena to shut up! Yeah, her constant yelling did get annoying. I would honestly take Bao if that meant Kensou could come back! I miss playing with him since he's the first player I truly learned in KOF. This is a good list that I can't dispute!
Team psychosoldier is the home team of formidable zoners. They're zoners who also anti zoners too, like they're reflector that Athena and Bao has. I miss Bao a lot hope in the future installment they could bring the lil boy back in the game pair him with the queen of zoners Athena and Meitikun it would be a nightmare.
I used to cheese Athena using Leona's Baltic Launcher(?). Just stun lock her with it, hopping left to right until she's down. Used to do that in '96 and '99.
Would there ever be a video like: Top 10 Alternate versions of characters? So many fighters have alt versions and changed styles through the series. That be really deep and selective.
7:58 Huh. I find her voice in '97 even more annoying. Imagine if one day Ninon Beart enters the mainline games, she would be an excellent zoner. I do like charge 'Guile' Robert.
Thanks for the compliment! I would love to have KOF XI in newer platforms. I don't know the exact details but I heard there are some legal issues preventing that form happening.
Good work explaining the kof lore :) and having diverse lists for kof. I started doing kof lore in kof all star the mobile game on my channel :) its cool mixing a mobile kof with the previous generations of kof games especially atm kof 15 since they cross over in the kof all star game :)
The fact that you didn't include Daimon here means you never faced his earthquake slams. Goro is a boss of close combat and he can grab you from air. Add that with his unavoidable earthslam and even bosses stand no chance. That's literally how I won the early Kof games. Haven't played after 2000 so don't know if they discontinued it
Athena is one of my mains and even tho i love her i can agree that in the wrong hands she can be a little difficult to fight against (but not as impossible like some people make her to be, you can get a hold of her sometimes unlike other zoners)

Athena is the quintessential Zoner. Gotta love her
@@covid19alpha2variantturboc7 Yep! She’s definitely a favorite, especially among beginners.
No lies told
True
Now that song is stuck in my head again 😑😑
Having a team with Bao and Meitenkun sounds deliciously evil. Hahaha!! Add Chris to the list and you've got Team Brats! haha!
Or bring one of the Jin brothers to complete the Zoners Brats Team.
Or Team Shotas 😆
Their biggest fear would be the 'Ara Ara gals' like Luong and Shermie
Throw Mina Majikina from SSV into the mix while you’re at it.
Shoryugame: I don't wanna deal with Bao in KoF XV
SNK: Glad you asked, here are the fighters of the next DLC: Bao, Momoko and Malin, the "Smol Annoying Brats team". You're welcome.
Bao: Reject humanity become fireball!
Great list Shoryugame.
I know there is a difference between Zoners and Keep away characters.
Zoners just excel at long-range combat but Keep Away characters' playstyles are built around actively avoiding close combat.
Thanks! Well said!
@@ShoryuGame What if that storyline went somewhere and Bao was e-vil (Master betty laugh)
Bao and Meiten kun teaming up = "I value my sanity"
lets add Athena there surely we need a Psycho ward to stay in
Seeing Meitenkun on the list shows that you shouldn't underestimate the sleepy kid with the pillow. That will be the last thing you'll see before getting knocked out. XD
Jokes aside, the list is quite well made and it shows!
That explains Meitenkun win against Yuri TWICE🤣🤣🤣

The best version of Robert: Another Robert. Any SNK game with Dan, even the unofficial ones, are excellent.
I love playing Bao and hope he returns in KOFXV on the Psycho Soldiers team with Kensou and Momoko.
08:14 :D
Robert has been through some rude changes along the series... The Shoto version will always remain my favorite
11:57 : Same thing with Joe for me !! Haha !

he was easy to counter. just run ab and boom. you closed distance quick.

I played King alot, but not spam her venom strike that much, her moves are just fast, satisfice animation and awesome easy to follow combo. She's that good even without her projectile.
3:09 such a smooth transition
Shoryu, I love your videos. You're a great youtuber.
Thank you so much! I appreciate that!
I agree
I hope Bao returns, but he's working in tandem with Baitang for a new suite of offense and a reasonably sized hitbox.
I'm still heartbroken that Kensou is not in 15
Athena, Bao and Kensou are so cool, I don't care how many psycho balls they throw at me, I'll be spamming AB all match if necessary
Lol Meitenkun’s ex projectile works like a jump scare that’s a good one if wasn’t already subscribed that one earned you one from me
I'm glad you agree with that!

Most if not all of them are very forgotten these days.
Xiao Lon only appeared in one game
Also, F for Love Heart and Mui Mui 😢
everyone after bao stop showing up : finally he is gone
meitenku shows up : AAAAAAAAAAAAH
I may not be the best zoner, but I surely am the prettiest, no?
i'd call Guile Robert: Charlie Robert instead because he uses one handed sonic booms
And you didn't even mention that Bao has a reflect AND a fireball reflect lol I love playing him, would be happy if he comes back to KOF XV or some future titles.
For me the most annoying zoner wasn't specifically a zonner, it was just K Dash. Annoying. So very annoying.

Had a difficult time mastering King's Double Strike back in KoF95.
Bao was my main in kfo 2000. Playing it aggressively is super fun. Not always won but fun af
wait... so you are telling me I've been playing my girl King the wrong way all this time?
Whip's projectile is so good it is a hidden desperation move
She can do a lot of zoning just with her normals.
8:15 my boy kensou
Bao is my main character in kof 2002 he has many moves and u can make combos like crazy
I didn't really appriciate charge fighters until SF4 so I didn't understand why Robert was a charge fighter in 2000. I feel bad for missing out.

Great video! lol @ telling Athena to shut up! Yeah, her constant yelling did get annoying. I would honestly take Bao if that meant Kensou could come back! I miss playing with him since he's the first player I truly learned in KOF. This is a good list that I can't dispute!
Thank you! Bao is the devil in the form of a kid.
Billy Kane, Krauser, Lucky Glauber and Orochi Shermie should've at least make it to the honorable mention, other than that I'm fine with this list.
You're not wrong. But there are too many zoners in KOF that I could do a second list about them.
oh man i forgot about lucky my god he was painfull to play against lol
@@sethnakht12 his crouching D, his teleport , his projectiles, and so forth
Team psychosoldier is the home team of formidable zoners.
They're zoners who also anti zoners too, like they're reflector that Athena and Bao has.
I miss Bao a lot hope in the future installment they could bring the lil boy back in the game pair him with the queen of zoners Athena and Meitikun it would be a nightmare.
Zoners in general always have a slight advantage in battle.
I used to cheese Athena using Leona's Baltic Launcher(?). Just stun lock her with it, hopping left to right until she's down. Used to do that in '96 and '99.
Kensou is so sick. I loved him i. 13 so much, I went back and started using him in other games.
i miss bao. he should make appearance in new kof games
Magaki is SOB when it comes to this 😂
Another fantastic video. I only wish it was a little louder
Would there ever be a video like: Top 10 Alternate versions of characters? So many fighters have alt versions and changed styles through the series. That be really deep and selective.
let hope 15 have the mm fix and have a good update , good video
Thanks!
8:15 that was golden ,lol
7:58 Huh.
I find her voice in '97 even more annoying.
Imagine if one day Ninon Beart enters the mainline games, she would be an excellent zoner.
I do like charge 'Guile' Robert.
All of these are not fireballs. Most of them are shockwaves wrapped in a projectile. :)
Yes... commonly known as fireballs!
Great video!!! My hatred of Bao can not be overstated!!! I do have to clean the blood from my ears after listening to Athena's PSYCHO BALLS!!!!🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍

But the list and the vídeo are really good.

If bosses were included, Magaki would take up all the spots on the list
Someone in SNK is a fan of Touho and thought it was a good idea to make the final boss like a Tohou character.
I remember where Athena had a super were her fans stampede over the opponent, what happened to that move? It's kind of funny!
wow Bao is a pain in the ass zoner what a shocker XD
Bao is the best thing ever. Lol

And in 97 (and 98 I think).
Robert is versatile.
Athena is one of my mains and even tho i love her i can agree that in the wrong hands she can be a little difficult to fight against (but not as impossible like some people make her to be, you can get a hold of her sometimes unlike other zoners)
Fun fact according to kof destiny geese howard isn’t geese Howard’s real name he claimed he forgotten his name
why dont u upload in 1080p? yt favors the higher quality ones always
My complaint with rugal is why is his reppuken quarter circle forward but his laser beam is quarter circle back
Because forward is reserved to his Dark Barrier, which he always had with that motion.
Nobody talking about DARK ASH being an actual Zoner during his fight in XIII
I want Bao and Momoko in KOF XV!
I really love Athena and King they have the coolest animations 😍🤩
I think Athena's voice is more annoying in KOF 96. She sounds like a hoarse kid. And I think Robert from KOF 2000 is the most annoying one.
Athena is one of my mains and waifus. She's cute and easy to use.
I Main Kensou, shame is not in KOFXV, nor Duck King
Awesome funny list.
Thanks!
