I'm surprised that Kyo and Iori don't have a special interaction in the beginning compared to Yashiro, Chris, and Shermie. Wish they did that special interaction where they they lit their flames, said some things, and just snuff it out after.
I really like the ones Chris has with Yashiro and Shermie. I don't know KoF lore so I could be completely off on this but it feels like a little kid getting super excited to see their older brother and older sister. Just makes me smile haha
Weird beginning in the first match, at least we get to see Chris moonwalking. Also, Yashiro fighting Chris is hilarious, it's a big buff dude punching a child in the face
@@Urd-Vidan bruh, they're not controlled by the Orochi. They ARE the Orochi "aka Heavenly Kings". The only ones that were really "controlled" were Leona and Iori in '97.
@@lukewood2662 didn't really know about that. Just saw them with Orochi(iirc, Chris eventually becomes Orochi) when I was younger. Thought they were controlled.
Anyone else find themselves jammin out with that minor band in the background? This is for real, one of the best stages in fighting games now and kinda for the worst of reasons too! PS: I know it's from XI/Fatal Fury Special, I come from that kingdom
The preview video had Shermie appear from behind and then KO!. That´s all I needed to know. Chris greeting the opposite team is pretty damn cute, not gonna lie.
Yashiro is such a fan favorite like Chris and Sherime. He looks even cooler in 3D heck Chris and Sherime look cooler in 3D. I like Yashiro too and it's great seeing him making a comeback with Chris and Sherime. I even love their introduction with each other. It's like heyo what's up before kicking serious derrière
What I love about KOF is that it builds heavily on classic footsies while adding option select, however a great footsie player will outplay a huge combo user who is not up on their footsies. That's pretty cool if you ask me. Combos are awesome but it takes a good player to use them in good situations which already requires good footsies.. and my favorite part... The massive combo footsie game where literally anything can confirm thanks to max mode but it's a huge learning curve that turns off many weak willed gamers. But as a person who's loved kof and always been ass at it only picking up the intricacies slowly over the years and then seeing the pros play really opened my eyes to this shit from a lifelong kof fan... Nay even a fighting game fan in general.
That first guy that Max played who just kept walking away from Max was actually fan of Max who was just scared shitless when they realized who they were playing against.
Character specific combos. Using Iori in training, against some characters you can C, f+A x2, against others you can only do 1 f+A. Gotta learn combos against different characters. Edit, same with Kyo. Against some after a jump in you can easily do d+B, d+A, df+D. Against others the d+A whiffs. Hope this gets fixed, Iori I understand, but Kyo should always be able to hit d+A after d+B.
Indeed, the tale of poor Lucky Glauber is one of woe. It was him, a boxer and an american football-player in the "Sports Team" in like... the very FIRST KOF. Then in the sequel that introduced Iori, he canonically beat up the Sports Team and stole their entrance ticket, and they've been seen as a running joke ever since. Always missing out on a chance to get another entrance or having their tickets lost to bad luck, etc.
can't wait for kof15 to come out. I hope snk take this beta to heart and iron out the netcode issues, I want this game to live for a long time. hopefully pc has crossplay with the other consoles, im guessing that's why sf5 managed to live for so long on pc regardless of having terrible netcode, because there will always be people to play against on ps
Chris and Yashiro make me check the playback speed of the video at times.. sometimes their quick hits and movement speed make wonder if the video is on 1.25x speed.. then I go check and find it normal 😴
So yashiro is a bruiser in his normal form and a grappler in his orochi form. Shermi is a grappler in normal, caster in orochi. Chris... Balance? Speed? And a caster in orochi.
A playstyle can say a lot about someone. That first guy wanted a win by cheese or no win at all - probably a cheater waiting to happen if they were given the chance. Would ban.
They can't take losses as good as they take the wins. I don't get how you can go online- knowing you'll be up against people of all types of skill levels and expect to win all of the time. If i was to even try playing online mode on a fighter and was as nice with them like max is, i'd still expect to lose to someone down the line. That's just a way more realistic mentality to have when going into any PvP mode, to me.
Lol his defensive style is so strong it baited you into a scrubquote. Runaway is valid says the Wong-ites. In fact online I'd say "hang out until they do something dumb and you can kill them" is a pretty strong style.
Sounds like salt lol, I used to think the same. There's no bad tactics just bad players, you may not approve of it but if it works it works, you just gotta learn to deal with it. Learning to process that situation will only make you better and eventually you won't care.
Yashiro is the epitome of "I'm gonna start swinging my arms like this and if you get hit, it's your fault!"
Oh yeah, well I’m gonna start kickin air like THIS! And if any part of you should happen to feel that air it’ll be YOUR fault!
Well look here pie I’m gonna start moving my mouth like this! if you get eaten that’s YOUR fault.
His fighting style is literally, "mostly power-based moves", like Chris being speed based.
The man is such an absolute unit and I love it.
@@spiralgodking9877 I mean, if some edgy, redheaded bassist upstaged your whole band, wouldn't you be pissed?
Yashiro, my Boi. The nostalgia man, this dudes been missing for too long on the games.
I'm surprised that Kyo and Iori don't have a special interaction in the beginning compared to Yashiro, Chris, and Shermie. Wish they did that special interaction where they they lit their flames, said some things, and just snuff it out after.
dammit me too it was one of the things that made kof unique
They will have a full cutscene interaction in the full game! You can see some of it in the Kyo trailer
They certainly will
This is pure netcode testing beta
They still get TWO special VS theme.
Just not installed into the game yet
Yashiro: So, anyway I started swingin
I always love character interactions before they fight and or there after fight dialogue i hate when people skipped them
me and you brother
@Kleek Vishon You and yous brothers
@@thephoenix2038 Me & my brother

It's not a fighting game if a grown ass man can't deck a kid in the jaw.
@@zachataxxii7126 Lmao
Ah but they're friends, so it's a friendly smash to the face, that's all.
@@CrossoverGameReviews Yep
@@CrossoverGameReviews Just a friendly vibe check.
I was surprised Max didn't start playing Yashiro earlier. I remember Max liking Shen Woo a lot, and Yashiro is a really good stand-in for him.
It's honestly more like Shen Woo was a good stand-in for Yashiro.
Yashiro is gonna be a sick character for sure, hope they have the ex versions.
Like, when they were controlled by the Orochi?
@@Urd-Vidan bruh, they're not controlled by the Orochi. They ARE the Orochi "aka Heavenly Kings". The only ones that were really "controlled" were Leona and Iori in '97.

*sex version
Yashiro was a character I overlooked until, no joke, KOF R-2 when it came out on the switch. He’s pretty fun.
Yashiro gave me PTSD from when I used to play '98 on Fightcade...
Since the arcade days he's been a hidden gem, specially his 2002 version.
Every SNK character aside from the creepy ones All have sick combos and look hot I love it
Without context, it seems like Kyo is obsessed with bodegas.
Kyo vs Iori really looks like a protagonist vs rival that later becomes friend fight from a 90's shonen.
As soon as this goes on sale, I'm pre-ordering this. Gotta have this game for sure.
"Jump in again. I'll wait for you." Spoken like a true gentleman! 😄
I knew that the moment he got to know the Orochi Team better he would really enjoy playing with them,Yashiro has always been one of my favorites 🤜💥
thats what happens when you use the same few characters and never change
Agreed always loved playing Yashiro, so happy he's in the game now
Anyone else find themselves jammin out with that minor band in the background?
This is for real, one of the best stages in fighting games now and kinda for the worst of reasons too!
PS: I know it's from XI/Fatal Fury Special, I come from that kingdom
I hope there's another beta session coming.
In 9:43 I don't know how but some people in Brasil say that in portuguese Iori said "Seu buraco é um mistério" that means "your hole is a mistery"
Ok so I don't play fighting games and saw the thumbnail and immediately thought "Oh hey that's Nero from DMC5, what's he doing here?
It is not Nero.
I'm more of an O.Yashiro guy, but damn. those juggles look sick
13:18 - How am I just noticing that color scheme?!
Shun'ei looks like he fell into a laundry basket at the laundrette and decided to roll with it.
I can already see the mods people are gonna make for the PC version.
can you? cause 14 has none
@@jadenepia5960 Yeah but XV is on unreal engine which is significantly easier to mod
First Yashiro tried to back off like it's Injustice
I been playing a lot of Yashiro and I love him
Can we appreciate the change up mix for the intro! Love it! 🙌🏾🔥
"We need a Urien skin on Yashiro" No, Max.... But we DO NEED a Yashiro skin on Urien!!!!
A Shun'ei skin for Gill would be funny.
Yashiro is a beast, it hurts that he will be the first to be patched, it turned out to be very advantageous with his combos
The preview video had Shermie appear from behind and then KO!. That´s all I needed to know.

Those colors for Chris reference kid Rock Howard
Unique intros = Yes ❤️
You gotta dig Kyo's outfit in this one.
This better get a Switch release at some point
These fights feel so natural! Massive difference from Marvel online where everyone uses auto-attack scripts, wouldn't you agree?
He seems very much like a Smug character

oh, that's Lucky Glauber... dude hasn't been in since KoF '98, lol

Are we getting, by any chance, a translation for what they are saying in Japanese during the fight? I'm so interested in understanding Dolores quotes
not just yashiro all the combos are sick
I think the first guy was a brand new player tbh lol
Watching max play this beta really makes me miss playing it myself.
These supers into supers cancels reminds me a lot of SF EX.
Chris and Yashiro make me check the playback speed of the video at times.. sometimes their quick hits and movement speed make wonder if the video is on 1.25x speed.. then I go check and find it normal 😴
I chuckled at "SNK where is Kim"
So hyped my boi is in the game NOW GIVE ME KRAUSER SNK! DIES IRAE
Chris hitting the moonwalk
Do your 3 characters that you choose get placed randomly in the match?
Does anyone have any tips about this game? I want to get into it and I found out about it right when the beta ended.
Have clean inputs, you'll probably need them 😂
Max team will include Chris, Eye Girl and Sleepy Boy, i can feel it
Wassup Max? Good matches bro!
Awesome max!
So why does it say "KOF XV" above both health bars?
It's titles you can choose from, the default is KOFXV
Others titles would be something like
"beginner"
"go easy on me"
"don't hold back"
@@ShingoKhan ah okay. Makes more sense than having it be game version
Are you using a fight stick?
Wait until you play the Orochi team's true forms :3
Yashiro combos look like some Dudley stuff, pretty cool
Max you missing his over head mix up combo
........you know, I haven't really seen anyone do anything crazy or cool with Iroi much in this beta
Why doesn't anyone punish jump ins anymore
So yashiro is a bruiser in his normal form and a grappler in his orochi form.
Shermi is a grappler in normal, caster in orochi.
Chris... Balance? Speed? And a caster in orochi.
Hey Max, could you do a Rate the Super video on Pokken Tournament DX
That game deserves a lot more appreciation
Is Chris the Duck King son?.....Hmmmm
Anyone else getting kinda triggered every time people forget to charge Yashiro's super when trying to hit it after a juggle...or maybe its just me
Would be dope to see another RE4VR gameplay from you, but at this point doubts are high.
Can you finally post the Chris reaction now lmao?? You've been holding it hostage for so long - come on, best character deserves it ;)
A playstyle can say a lot about someone. That first guy wanted a win by cheese or no win at all - probably a cheater waiting to happen if they were given the chance. Would ban.
To punish the whiffed footsy A dp I just go straight to QCF launcher lol.
It bothere me how people lose with max mode and several bars. Use your meter people!
We can still play the beta???
The only reason someone could become friends with Chris is that he could introduce you to Shermie 🥵
Bruh
Man’s down bad smh
At some point, Max will realize he's using quick mode instead max mode, right?
He knows, and both are max modes.
raw max and quick max
@@ShingoKhan thx for the info man.
This day is Crazy with that Wesker 🤪
Why does Chris have to say every ones names before the match lol…I’m always waiting for max to be like “stfu Christopher!”
Max has yet to fight a single good shermie player.
What he say
Shame that 90% of this stuff has been completely removed in the release version of the game.
K ❤ F
Ngl i thought it was virgil from(dmc5) dlc😅
Is the beta still up or did I miss it
He's uploading his twitch streams in parts to his youtube channel as he always does.
Noice!
Yashiro seems easy ngl
I came for Shermie
That is all
Is no one gonna talk about the fact that Chris is MOONWALKING?
Sup max
Wait. Ain't Chris supposed to be dead?
yeah... The last boss of KoF 14 made it so a LOT of dead characters could come back, including Chris, Yashiro, and Shermie.
Early Gang Be Like:
Is Max playing against overzealous scrubs and noobs?
IIRC there’s no rated matchmaking in the beta, it’s either casual match or lobbies. So that”s very plausible.
Do you need to ask? Unless you don't know kof, yes, this is very low level, from both sides.
Early gang
Man, I can't stand those people. Why do you bother coming to play online if all you do is run away. I don't understand.
They can't take losses as good as they take the wins. I don't get how you can go online- knowing you'll be up against people of all types of skill levels and expect to win all of the time.

Is this Chris Character a Boy or Girl?

I Do'nt like 3D design of the charecter (yashiro). I think kof all starts 3d design was nicer thn XV
its a pretty boring juggle honestly
