[Strat Thread] KOF '97 - Robert Garcia

[Noisetank Crew]

He does not have f+a in this game!!!


Why is he better in 97 than 98 again? Both Version of his +K look like they are safe. He has both da p and K for anti-air.



Pokes-

s.D, c.D, d.B and j.D are his best pokes.

His jump CD look ok but would j.D be better.

his standing cd is is f+A animation



Combos:

s.C, f+b, into and super but qcfx2 +K

j.D, s.C f+b, into any super but qcfx2 + k

s.C, +K, f+b, +C/ +K/ j.CD

+k seems to whiff at certain rangers but +c is a sure bet to always hit.


Questions:

How to use his fireball??

what are the uses for +K and is it safe?

Strats?

Robert was quite powerful indeed back in '97!

His hienshippukyaku D was insanelly broken,safe, damaging comboable, abusable and hits crouching opponents.

Haoshokouken f P DM was also quite powerful. Could hit jumping oppoenents or careless rollers.

He has good reach with standing D, same his dD and you could cancel into D or A, his ryuugekiken P was also nice and stationary.

And his Ryokuranbu DM P was also a nice way to chip damage as it was still performed over you if you blocked.

All and all, Robbie-boy was powerful indeed and a tier hands down.

The +D is stupidly safe. His fireball makes for a great meaty too, and beats a lot of things. Even if he's hit out of it, the fireball will stay on the screen for a second or so.
