IS 2D fighting dead, or just dying?

Y'know, it's kinda funny how KK is saying that Mexico has the best KoF players around, when they aren't repped in most of the big tournies or have that much of a presence in big events (like SBO).

As for KoF being easy...umm, does it really matter? Sure it might get new people to learn it quickly, but that doesn't equate them to being instant gods of the game. If that was the case, then why hasn't a freakin' 12 or 10 year old who played a total of 2 or 3 times at an arcade won the top spot at Evo or SBO, hmm?

Definately, not an instant pick instant win game. It is a game that changed over its episodes in many ways for the best and the worst.
In one KoF, down C was the godly anti-air, then later an anti-air is not the end-all be-all mean to win a match.

because i had the impression your first post was in defence of KK's position about it.

I never did take his defense. I'll let him dig his own grave.
Right now, he is doing a good job at it

Well, you gotta take a peek at CX and watch our mexican toruneys there, man. With all honesty, mexican level is top notch.

Why Mexico doesn't go to SBO's or the sort? Mostly lack of resources, intercontinental flights are extremelly expensive for an average gamer back there and sadly, the tourneys are made by the players for the players, so there's no sponsorships that'd take the players abroad.

But if you really wanna take a look of how our people play at KOF, really take a look at CX, you won't go dissapointed. We have the most aggresive, offensive style and with loads of effectiveness.
