In the traditional works of the "King of Fighters" series, almost every generation has such a challenged little boss.
Their combat effectiveness is completely different, some small bosses we can easily defeat one by one, and some can't win by picking three. It also depends on the timing of the appearance of the small boss.
Generally speaking, the small boss who appears in the middle is to entertain the guests, and the combat effectiveness is no different from that of ordinary players. If the small BOSS appears before the bottom of the level, the combat effectiveness is relatively strong, and some are even stronger than the final BOSS.
Nowadays, the more popular characters have also served as small bosses or hidden bosses in a certain version, such as the familiar Kusanagi Kyo, Hachijin-an, Kura, Angel, and Lyanna, and the difficulty is not very high.
So, which of the little bosses in the King of Fighters series are the most powerful?
No.1: Kagura Chizuru, Kagura Gemini
When I first played King of Fighters 96 that year, I thought that Kagura Chizuru was already the final boss. Because her combat effectiveness is too strong, all kinds of shameless attack judgments, coupled with mysterious attack methods, have made many players suffer great losses.
Even those players who often play in real combat, in the face of such a crushing role, need a certain amount of luck to beat it.
96 Kagura Chizuru is really strong, and although it can be canonized in "King of Fighters 97" and "King of Fighters 98" in the later period, the 96 period is definitely the peak, the strongest small boss without controversy.
In King of Fighters 2003, Kagura Chizuru is controlled by Peony's puppet technique, reflecting Kagura Mangoku. The Kagura Twins worked together to gain even greater strength, and the mysterious attack judgment specially given by King of Fighters 2003 allowed the sisters to create an undefeated myth once again.
If it weren't for the fact that Wujie had a newcomer + boss aura, I think Kagura Twins could have hung it up and beaten it.
No.2: AdilHeid Bernstein
Lukar's son, whom we generally call Edward. He perfectly undertook Lukar's fighting power, using many of the moves that were very similar to his father's. In fact, SNK originally planned to let him replace Lukar, after all, only Edward is still alive in the plot, and Lukar is absolutely unable to live.
But what is surprising is that in "King of Fighters 15", Lucar actually appeared as a DLC character. That is, he was also one of the characters who was resurrected by Wells.
Edward is a small boss in "King of Fighters 2003", and it is also the final boss, depending on how players decide when playing Grasshopper. Edward's fighting power is not under the boundary, the attack speed is extremely fast, and the "Fierce Wind Fist" plays more than Lucar.
It feels as if the trick is not straight. The strength is definitely above 98 Lukar, quite terrifying
No.3: Aster
The two bosses who appear in "King of Fighters 11" have auras, which is very difficult.
Although the attack method of the curse is shameless, at least we can still touch the door, and the attack method of Ziyuan is more different.
The use of Chinese marksmanship is also mysterious
There are two action modes, "Gun Mode" and "Empty Hand Mode", which will lose the spear if injured in the gun mode, and retrieve the spear with a specific move in the empty hand mode.
This character was originally designed as the daughter of the dragon (the character of the laughing dragon) during the Sound Nest period, but was cancelled later. In "King of Fighters 11", he appeared as a character on the other side of the world, and even the gender was changed, but the setting of the false lady was still quite popular.
She is based on the character Fang Li from the Cosmic Knight Tekkaman Blade, and you can find the similarities by comparing them a little!
No.4: Crazy Liana and The Rampage Ofe Hachijin-an
There are a lot of small bosses in the "King of Fighters 97" period, and Liana and Hachijinan have both appeared as small bosses, and after defeating them, they need to face the awakened Great Snake Team. The third of the four kings in the Eight Jies episode was originally a boss-level figure, but because the big snake was going to appear, they could only guard the bottom of the level as a small boss.
After the rampage, both the speed and strength have increased greatly, but the people have also become relatively brittle. Later in "King of Fighters 2002", Lyanna can become a rampage on her own, and the price paid is to lose a certain amount of health.
When we first saw Crazy Liana and Hachijin-an, the sense of oppression and aura was suffocating. After a period of contact, you will find that although they are powerful, they are very difficult, and they can be beaten one by one.
Unfortunately, in later versions, Hachijin-an and Crazy Lyanna never appear again.
Although the home console platform exists, it is only copied and has not developed any fresh moves. "King of Fighters 15" Yajin-an has been severely weakened, and if it can launch a rampage package, it will definitely increase sales.
No.5: 真ZERO
To fight this boss, I usually send two characters on the field, and two characters as aid, so that there is enough attack power to defeat him.
But it is also more difficult to really defeat him, not to mention that his desire to release the full-screen super killer skill is very strong, that is, his few followers are enough to drink a pot. The attack method is almost flawless, the attack distance is relatively long, and it is difficult to get close.
The strength is obviously above the BOSS of "King of Fighters 2000", but it debuts as a small BOSS
The other little bosses don't seem to pose any threat to the player!
"King of Fighters 14" Antonov, "King of Fighters 98" Masanobu Yabuki, can be called the weakest BOSS in history. Although Kura and Angel are also small bosses, they are all optional characters in our opinion.
Yes, these are all fond memories of the arcade era.
Today, when we see these games again, we always lament that the years are not sparing. Arcade players of that year have long passed the age of establishment, playing games less and less, but the nostalgia for the game hall is growing day by day.
I am very fortunate to have access to so many arcade games in the past, and the bits and pieces in the game hall are still fresh in my memory, after all, this is our best youth!
