Since XIII Global Match didn't allow default health or KOs in training, I had to record this in Versus Mode. That was when I learned about handicap mode! Thank goodness the SNK folks included the options. I don't see them too often these days.

Also, I'm pretty sure this ToD was already known, but I doubt anyone would believe me if I said that I found this by accident. Imagine my surprise when that happened.

I spent 2 hours developing this combo from scratch and I didn't even got the TOD. In a real match it'd use all 5 bars and the entire drive bar, obviously.

In KOF XV I spent 10-ish minutes per character and I managed to pull off a TOD for each one I tried until I got bored.

(I do not like watching any guides on how to combo so I literally invented this and every other combo I do, I just based off 1 or 2 things I watched on the trials)

I'm looking for obscure KOF arcade bootlegs/hacks that do more than just add characters, change movesets, or give you an infinite power gauge.

The ones I already know about are:

• KOF 2002 Special Edition 2004

• KOF 2002 10th Anniversary 2005

• Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 2003 (the KOF 2001 hack)

Are there any other KOF 2002 hacks, or hacks of other KOF games, that actually change the stages and/or music?

I'm specifically looking for real arcade releases/ROMs (MVS/Neo Geo or other arcade hardware), not MUGEN games or PC mods.

Even obscure bootlegs with barely any documentation would be interesting. If you know any names or have gameplay footage, please share!

Thanks!

get into XV recently but struggling to find people to play with. Are there are discord servers or chat groups where i can find people for matches?
