1. UPDATE HISTORY =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

(September 9, 2002) Version 0.1 - First release. Beta movelists, plenty of unconfirmed/missing info.

(September 13, 2002) Version 0.2 - Design update. New sections added. Some info corrected.

(September 19, 2002) Version 0.3 - Updates in some sections, a few moves changed, many notes added.

Page 2: KOF '02 Moves

(September 20, 2002) Version 0.31 - Small updates.

(October 10, 2002) Version 0.4 - Small updates, a few notes added. Less unconfirmed info by now. The code to select Kusanagi was changed. The game is out in the arcades now, so this FAQ is due to gain its 1.0 version as soon as I have access to it.

(October 20, 2002) Version 0.5 - Some updates. Info on most Hidden SDMs was added. And the code to select Kusanagi was changed AGAIN. Very few unconfirmed info remains.

(November 20, 2002) Version 0.6 - Big update. Some layout changes, and some corrections/additions to the movelists. A list showing all of the basic system actions and their costs was added. A new Super Cancelable Moves box was added in each character's movelist. Info on the new music system was added (thanks again, TTW).

(December 19, 2002) Version 1.0 - Initial release. NOW the hard work begins. Wrong info is being corrected, new info is being added. Rugal movelist has been added.

(December 23, 2002) Version 1.01 - Small updates.

(December 29, 2002) Version 1.1 - A BIG clean-up has started. A new MAX Mode Cancelable Moves list has been added on each character's movelist (under construction). Many updates on existing info.

(January 04, 2003) Version 1.2 - More cleaning up. Many updates on existing info. A new Color Information section has been added, showing information on all the colors for all the characters.

(February 08, 2003) Version 1.21 - A Chart of Characters was added, related to the KOF series in general, just as a source of random useless information. =) - The MAX Mode Cancelable Into moves section was added under each character's movelist, but I've only had time to test up to Blue Mary, so the list will still be blank for everyone starting from Billy Kane. It will (obviously) be fixed later, when I have more free time.

(June 10, 2003) Version 1.3 - Finally, after a loooong time, I have some time to work on this. The MAX Mode Cancelable Into moves section is finished now. Also, corrected a mistake with the command to Ryo's Ryuuko Ranbu SDM.

(June 14, 2003) Version 1.4 - Just some small additions.

(September 10, 2003) Version 1.5 - Very small corrections.

============================================================================================================================================================ =============================================================================

2. THE SYSTEM =-=-=-=-=-=-=

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-= Basic System =- ------------

Terminology: f - forward b - back

Page 3: KOF '02 Moves

u - up d - down

(forward refers to the right if your character is facing right, and the left if your character is facing left; back is the opposite direction)

ub - up-back uf - up-forward db - down-back df - down-forward

qcf - quarter circle front (d,df,f) qcb - quarter circle back (d,db,b) hcf - half circle front (b,db,d,df,f) hcb - half circle back (f,df,d,db,b)

A - Light Punch C - Heavy Punch B - Light Kick D - Heavy Kick

Start - Taunt/Provocation.

Press ub, u or uf rapidly to perform a hop. Press ub, u or uf holding the button for a short while to perform a jump. Press db,uf or df,ub to perform a high jump. Press ub while running to perform a high jump.

f,f : Run (keep holding f to keep running).

b,b : Backstep.

b while being : Block. This greatly reduces the damage an enemy does to attacked you, but you cannot be performing any other action while blocking, and it cannot be done in the air.

b/f + C/D while : Throw escape. Note that only normal throws can be escaped, being thrown and you must use the same button that the opponent used to throw you. Some normal throws are not escapable at all.

AB : Emergency Evasion (your character rolls forward; he/she is almost invincible while rolling, being only affected by throws).

b + AB : Emergency Evasion (exactly like the normal one, except that your character rolls backwards).

AB while : Guard Cancel. Your character will cancel the blocking blocking animation and roll back for his/her safety. This will cost one power stock.

AB during a : Roll Buffering. Your character will cancel whichever normal/special attack he/she is performing (even a CD Guard Cancel) and move roll. This will cost one power stock.

AB after being : Recovery Roll. You roll instead of being actually knocked knocked down down. It saves time. Note that it can't be done after certain moves.

BC : Activate MAX Mode. While on MAX Mode, your character can perform SDMs for the cost of one extra stock, or DMs for free. If either is performed, though, MAX Mode ends immediately. Otherwise, it lasts for the length of a small time bar. While on MAX Mode, your character can also cancel normal/special moves into some other moves, but doing so will deplete about 1/4 of the time bar, thus making the mode end earlier (and assuring that you can only cancel about 4 or 5 moves). And there's more to MAX Mode: during it, the damage your character inflicts is reduced in about 25%. Activating MAX Mode costs one power stock.

BC during a : MAX Mode Buffering. Your character will cancel whichever normal move normal attack he/she is performing and activate MAX Mode. This can save time as it immediatly removes the rest of the

Page 4: KOF '02 Moves

recovery time (so you can use it to extend some combos). This will cost one more power stock (besides the power stock already necessary to activate MAX Mode).

CD : Heavy Attack (this attack always knocks the opponent down, and can be performed in the air, but not while crouching).

CD while : Guard Cancel. Your character will cancel the blocking blocking animation and counter the opponent with a CD attack. This will cost one power stock and knock the opponent down, causing him/her some damage.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-= What is changed from KOF2001, in the system: =- --------------------------------------------

- The strikers are gone.

- Teams are formed by 3 members, like KOF94-98. There's no more ratio system, you can only select teams with three fighters each.

- Critical Wire is gone. Only Counter Wire remains.

- Throws cause the same damage they did in KOF98.

- Guard Cancel with CD damages the opponent.

- Just like in KOF98, every character on your team can hold a different amount of power stocks: the first can hold up to 3 stocks; the second, up to 4; and the third, up to 5.

- To perform DMs, you must have one power stock. Doing so will deplete the stock. You can also perform a DM while you're in MAX Mode, but doing so will finish MAX Mode (without depleting any extra stock).

- To perform SDMs, you must be in MAX Mode and have at least one power stock remaining. Doing so will finish MAX Mode and deplete the extra stock.

- To perform HSDMs, you must be in MAX Mode, with 1/4 of your life (or less) remaining, and have one extra power stock. Doing so will finish MAX Mode and deplete the extra stock.

- The life meter of your character will flash when he's about to be guard crushed.

- During CPU matches, you can choose one of two teams to fight against.

- When performing SDMs, instead of having the usual white flash and then a negative background, now there is a red flash instead of a white one, and there is no more negative background.

- When performing HSDMs, instead of a white or a red flash, there is a yellow flash. While the HSDM is being performed, the background is blue with horizontal white lines (the same as K9999's SDM in KOF2001). The only exceptions to this are: . Chang, no background (all black) . Iori, red "Orochi Iori" background . Orochi Yashiro, lots of lava . Orochi Shermie, some dark clouds . Orochi Chris, green "bright light" background . Kula, her old "blue ice" background for a short while . K9999, no background (all white)

3. THE MOVELIST =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Under each character's movelist there is a small box showing whatever has changed on their movelists from KOF2001 (or their latest KOF game) to KOF2002.

Then, there is a small chart showing the cancelable normals of that character. It is pretty self-explanatory. The numbers that will appear sometimes show in which hit that normal can be canceled. An (*) means that the move can be canceled during any hit (only for multi-hit normals, obviously). Example of chart:

[ CANCELABLE NORMALS ]

stand A(*) stand B stand C(2) stand D crouch A --- crouch C crouch D(1) far C far D

On this example, the character can cancel his stand A in any hit. He can only cancel his stand C on the second hit, and his crouching D on the first hit. He cannot cancel his crouch B at all (since it's not listed).

-=-

There is also a Command Cancelability chart.

The symbol before the command indicates if it can be linked from a normal:

-> means that you can link a normal into the command, and must do so in order to cancel it;#> means that you can link a normal into the command, but don't have to that in order to cancel it (it's optional);. means that you can't link a normal into the command.

The symbol after the command indicates if it can be canceled into a move/DM:

-> means that the command can be canceled into a move/DM;. means that the command can't be canceled into a move/DM.

NOTE: Ralf, Mature and May Lee (in Normal Mode) don't have any commands, so they don't have this chart.

-=-

Page 6: KOF '02 Moves

After the Command Cancelability chart, there is a Super Cancelable Moves list. It simply shows which moves of that character can be super canceled (that is, canceled directly into a DM/SDM, with an additional cost of 1 stock).

-=-

Following it, there is a "MAX Mode Cancelable Moves" list, that shows which commands and special moves of that character can be canceled into other special moves during MAX Mode. Right under it, there is another list entitled "'Cancelable Into' Moves", that shows which moves can be 'canceled into' during MAX Mode (i.e, you can cancel a MAX Mode Cancelable move into any 'cancelable into' move during MAX Mode). An asterisk (*) will be in front of the move name if it's also a MAXMode Cancelable Move. By the way, it's good to remember that a move can never be canceled into the same move.

-=-

After that, there is a "Command Attributes" and a "Move Attributes" list.They show the special properties of the character's commands and moves. Some characters also have a "Normal Attributes" list.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-= Command Attributes: =- -------------------

NOTE: whenever a command is canceled into (i.e, you link a normal into it), it loses all of its attributes. There are some exceptions to this, though, like Vanessa's One-Two Puncher.

- Overhead: this command cannot be blocked by a crouching opponent.

- Hits low: this attack annot be blocked by a standing opponent.

- Parry: this command is used to block incoming attacks, you will take no damage if attacked while performing it.

- Knockdown: this command will knock the opponent down.

- Autoguard: this command has some frames where it cannot be interrupted by enemy attacks. Your character automatically takes block damage if attacked during Autoguard frames, and his/her command doesn't stop (normally hitting the opponent after that).

- Cross Up: this command will succesfuly connect while your character is jumping over the enemy, hitting on his/her opposite side. It works as an excellent combo starter.

-= Move Attributes: =- ----------------

NOTE: DMs, SDMs and HSDMs may also be listed here. They'll be identified with brackets, like this: [DM] Move : the DM has that attribute [SDM] Move : the SDM has that attribute [S/DM] Move : both the DM and SDM versions of this move have that attribute [HSDM] Move : the HSDM has that attribute

- Overhead: this attack cannot be blocked by a crouching opponent.

- Hits low: this attack annot be blocked by a standing opponent.

- Unblockable: this attack cannot be blocked at all.

- Counter: when you execute this move, your character will be in a certain

Page 7: KOF '02 Moves

stance for a few seconds. If the enemy hits him during that stance, your character will take no damage and immediately counter the enemy attack with an attack of his own.

- Autoguard: this move has some frames (usually in the beginning) where it cannot be interrupted by enemy attacks. Your character automatically takes block damage if attacked during Autoguard frames, and his/her move doesn't stop (normally hitting the opponent after that).

- Invincibility: while performing this move, your character (or just a part of him/her) becomes totally invincible against enemy attacks.

- Counter Wire: during counter hits (when your move hits the opponent while he is also attacking you), this move will make your opponent be launched to the opposing wall and bounce back, allowing you to perform additional attacks.

- Mobility: you can move (in a limited fashion) while performing this move.

- Knockdown: this move will knock the opponent down and will not allow him/ her to use a Recovery Roll.

- Knockdown Projectile: this projectile will knock the opponent down.

- Reflects Projectiles: if a projectile hits you while performing this move, it will be reflected back to your opponent.

- Negates Projectiles: this move makes enemy projectiles vanish.

- Recovers life: this move makes you recover some life energy back.

- Guard Crush: if this move hits a blocking opponent, it will drop his/her guard, leaving him/her open for attacks for a few moments.

4. GENERAL INFO =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-= Music information =- -----------------

The music system has been changed. Now, there are stage themes, when you are fighting the CPU. On the first 5 stages, each stage has its own theme; the sixth stage (mid boss) will have a different theme depending on which characteryou are fighting (explained below), but on the 7th stage (which will always be Italy, even if you have already fought on this stage before this match), the music depends on the opponent team (like it's always been in previous KOFs). Rugal (8th stage) will also have his own theme. On VS. game, the system is not changed (the music still depends on the teams like it has always been). There are no more individual themes (for teams like the 97 and ONFT), only one song per team. And let's all give a big thank you to The True Warrior for this info. The KOF2001 Team does NOT have a separate song. If you fight them on the Italy stage, Napolitan Trance will play. And if you fight them during other moments, you will hear Deserted Town (Kula), Napolitan Trance (K9999) or TacosDance (Angel).

* Some of the songs are new, but most are old songs (all remixes).
