KOF'94 How to beat Rugal easier (vs Japan Team)

[MyShinyDragonair]

am i the only one who thinks Rugal's stance is really akward

[rnbqw057]

94のルガールはマジで強かった。特に烈風拳とカイザーウェーブ­もそうだがジェノサイドカッターはマジで悪夢。密着状態でパワー­MAX状態で喰らうと８割は体力もってかれる。

[superZvegetto]

how more boring can you get

[SaiyajinCMC82]

I bought KOF collection on PS2 and I'm already having fits trying to beat him.

[boru25]

Amazing! If all terroists where that easy to beat.

[zztopis2]

In Rugal and japan team stage the "you can hear behind me now"

is sampled from Slug Fest 89.

[TheHARRISEN]

the rugal final theme is great. don't you agree?

[friKidestroyer]

wow, this is funny ¬¬

[AlexTheSoutherner]

@ShinigamiTrainXIII Hey. don't knock the mesh. That muscle shirt is pro. Definitely looks better after 94 though.

[kiltsonfire164]

When i fought against Rugal i always got slaughtered and i suck at this game. Oh well, If you don't first succeed, Try, Try again.

[Xjreme18]

Why are you using taunt? o_O

[BrickCity4eva]

so spamming throws will work?

[pieds1000]

aller kyo..

[zprodigy]

you don't get more pwned than that

[RyukendenY]

KOF94 has scum difficulty. CPU reacts on your every move and counters sucesfully. It looks like sometimes you gotta find these kind of glitches to beat opponent.

[megac4]

@RyukendenY Quite right. Like almost every game to this day. Even modern SF4 still suffers from this. Not that it isn't easy to beat (i find KOF94 and SF4 easy with every character tbh). It's just annoying playing the games on hardest just to find them reacting to the "button pressed" (the absolute worst was MK2). It's called lazyness to program a good AI. It's so much easier to keep pumping crap AIs. Let's have faith in the future... one day a good AI will come. :)

[natanahelkof]

Level 4 ??? te creo si estubiera en el Level 8.

[timothylhm]

awesome finish

[AbhiB]

hope you do more

[waqasriaz76]

WTF  awesome combo

[Jegudiel29ZX]

Spamming FTW!

[Drizzydid]

one last thing, does he only use genocide cutter if u jump in the air?

[Drizzydid]

I use team mexico by the way

[Drizzydid]

wow this is cool but for me i my guys dont grab when i go close to him, they just do a kick for some reason and its really annoying

[syazwan03]

kof 98 boss is krizalid

[grassinigrassini]

99 krizalid 98omega rugal

[Iori400]

YOU IDIOT! Its Rugal Again.

[hks071]

hate this boss, just cont' like 30 times.

[rocketdive2001]

Nicely done. Now if only i could do that.

[Iori400]

lmao XD Kyo giving rugal the tsk tsk tsk! XD

[EmperorVerna]

cheapo!!!

[AwNuts]

EPIC KO against EASY AI !! :D

[Drizzydid]

man, the easy a i aint easy in this game trust me, im trying to beat him on easy, and i cant with team mexico, i always get so close and then boom genocide ****s me

[aidiknocles]

que monótono men

[chiliwuili]

That was Easy XD

[mrchaotiq]

I watched this video a while ago and still can't manage to beat that son of a bitch. You made this look easy and in theory it is, however in practice, it's alot harder than it looks. I've beaten every fighting game boss I can think of except this piece of shit. This game wasn't very popular where I'm from, most people played either sf2 or MK but this is a way better game. Are you playing it on MAME?

[33573357]

LEVEL 4?.....XD

[izaianicon]

where guile statue?

[sonicdance17]

i screamed OWNED AT the end btw nice skillz

[akitohayama893]

kensou owns!!!!!!! >_>

[UptownYardy]

Gah I'm stuck on the Psycho Soldier (China) team. God that b*tch Athen and her bf Kensou pwn my ass evry time.

Btw I'm playn it on da PSP

[zeganort3445]

burn bitch

[spongyspots]

nice video!

[picoaga]

cool vid!, can u make it for kof 2002 with all the caracters?

[voutespancar]

hahaha awesome taunting tactic!! omega rugal in kof95 is easy too

[besito00]

it seems easy, but u have to be preety good to manage to do that

[p0ncho]

Now, try level 8

[lfgarcia17]

Gah..that was easy, I used to struggle badly against Rugal in this one.

[EvilRyuGuy]

Lol, I remember how Rugal's jumping kick could hit you with its outer thigh despite that he was supposed to be kicking you with his foot.

I used to take out the first form with Daimon doing jumping kicks in the corner. He alwalys fell for it.

[figment1988]

thanks for the tactic. even though i didn't do it like in the video, i managed to win by time-out decision. but Rugal... he's definitely the definition of "SNK Boss Syndrome".

[SUPERMEEEEEE]

pure awesomeness, that finish

[machriderx]

I love the music that plays during Rugal's second form. "Uh, you can hear behind me now, that's uh, I think they're called Blue Death."

[machriderx]

Google it. That's what his song actually says. It's a sample from Digital Underground Gutfest '89 (Edit). I've never heard of the song before, but it's interesting that it was sampled and used in an SNK game.

[CaptainGinyu]

I wondered about that for years, thanks a lot for the info

[UkyoForever]

terry bodgar derrota a rugal y no fue kyo kusanagui , japom compra los derechos del juego y canvia la historia el verdadero protagonista deberia swer terry bodgar

[underthepale]

I know that word on the street holds that 94 Rugal isn't that difficult (and, indeed, is one of the easier KOF bosses, apparently), but still. I don't like having to exploit AI flaws just to beat a boss.

[capsitan]

lol this is hilarious but works!

[kailianglf2]

this still takes alot of skill...quick evasion is not that easy to do; you need to know the speed of projectiles very well to pull it off.

[LordZast]

Well, this is handy to know. Cheers!

[FATALFURYKID]

Yeah remember doing something simliar to Rugal

[Yagamimoon]

Back in the day of this game, that technique was very known (about making Rugal charge, he always charge until full, the part about the easy one, being grabbed was known too, thanks for uploading this video, good old times =)

[aldaloo3]

I Love Kof '94,'95 And'96 They Were The Best. The Method That You Were Doing Is Similar To Mine But Yours Is Perfect.

[Tsuzukix]

KoF 94 FTW!!!

I still remember when my friend Kosuke taught me how to beat Rugal this way back in 1995...

great video, btw

[hawaiidkw]

Great video. The method I used was a lot chickener (and definitely not YouTube-worthy), but the principle was the same. Don't fight on his terms. Attack him only when he can't hit back. And when in doubt, *play it safe*.

I'm amazed that so many players think he's the toughest KOF boss ever. Listen, if *I* can handle him, he's not that tough.

[FlameAdder]

Rugal's a sucker for sweeps, especially if you get him to follow you for a step or two first.

[Atomduck]

theres no flair in this method but I understand because Rugal is a asshole.

[vegeta353658]

Does this work against all the previous fighters?

[YeldellGW]

Not bad. I usually pick Benimaru first, back myself into a corner and whenever he comes near me, hit him with a retreating jumping strong kick followed by QCF+kick for the first round. Less risky than trying to throw him constantly.

[BassX0]

huh. all this time of being a KoF fan and I never knew that Rugal's Capcom vs. SNK costume was the one he wore in KoF94. Never played KoF94 due to it not appearing on a home console.

[SeventhSun]

It appeared on the Neo Geo AES system and the Neo Geo CD.

[figment1988]

it's also available in both Wii's Virtual Console for 900 points (9 US Dollars), and most recently SNK Arcade Classics for PS2 and the PSP.

[BassX0]

Yeah, I downloaded KoF94 as soon as it came out on Virtual Console.

[MightyKombat]

And I made hte mistake of getting Fatal Fury. Damn

[Charlymaumushi]

Ouch

[gr8gmr]

I tried this and it actually work. At first I didn't know how to do the side step but when I did, it actually helped me win. It took me awhile to get him into the corner, though.

[dragonclaw1988]

Hey did you import this from Japan?

If yes How is the japenese ps2?

[nekogenome]

I live in Japan.

I like the KOF'94 and '95 the most in the KOF series:)

[leparrain2ma]

@dragonclaw1988

i play kof 94 in mame, do you now how i play as Rugal ?
