| description =
Kyo is primarily a close-range pressure and mixup character. In neutral, he has access to some helpful moves for getting in, including his guard-point rekkas, as well as some solid poking normals. Close range is where Kyo is really good, as he can use his strong hop normals and lows to open up the opponent. He has good confirms into his DMs from both lows and heavies, as well as strong corner juggles, making his damage fairly high overall. On defense he has access to a good invincible DP. Kyo's weaknesses are that he lacks anything to fight at long range, since he doesn't have a projectile, and that his meterless low confirms are pretty lackluster.}}

* Kyo benefits from being further back in your team order with both gauges: to have access to more saved up stocks for his super combos with Advanced gauge, or because with Extra gauge, the red health window for free supers gets progressively bigger from the first to the third character.  
* Kyo benefits from being further back in your team order with both gauges. With Advanced gauge, he likes to have access to more saved up stocks for his super combos. With Extra gauge, he wants to take advantage of the greater red health window for free supers, which gets progressively bigger from the first to the third character.  
* Although, Kyo on point is more effective in Extra mode as he can charge up to get meter more quickly.

==General Notes==
 
* In Max Mode moves have more pushback, so some combos won't work the same. Most notably for Kyo, you cannot do two 2Bs into a 2A, and cl.C into 236D will only work at the corner, at midscreen it will miss even if do a cross-up or you don't do a jump-in.
'''Phantom Mauler:''' <code>qcb+A/C</code>
* cl.C is generally the preferred close normal to use in combos as it is slightly faster, but cl.D has a larger cancellable window which can be useful if you have trouble comboing into say, 236236P.
 
* In any metered combo, you can replace 236236P with 236236AC or 2141236P with 2141236AC if you have 3 stocks in Advanced mode or are at low health and in max mode in Extra Mode.
* Kyo does a sort of uppercut. Has counters associated with it if it's hit during certain parts of move.

== Combos ==
 
'''General Notes'''
* In Max Mode moves have more pushback, so some combos won't work the same. Most notably for Kyo, you cannot do two cr.Bs into a cr.A, and cl.C into qcf+D will only work at the corner, at midscreen it will miss even if do a cross-up or you don't do a jump-in.
 
* cl.C is generally the preferred close normal to use in combos as it is slightly faster, but cl.D has a larger cancellable window which can be useful if you have trouble comboing into say, qcfx2+P.
 
* In any metered combo, you can replace qcfx2+P with qcfx2+AC or qcb,hcf+P with qcb,hcf+AC if you have 3 stocks in Advanced mode or are at low health and in max mode in Extra Mode.
 
===Meterless===
 
''Low''
: <code>cr.Bx1~2, cr.A, df+D</code>
:* Easy and reliable low combo that is safe on block so no need to hit confirm, but not much damage and no knockdown.
:* You can add a second cr.B for more damage and a longer confirm but you will need to hit confirm the cr.A, df+D, as cr.A will whiff after two blocked cr.Bs.
 
: <code>cr.B, cr.A, dp+C</code>
:* More damaging low combo, results in a soft knockdown.
 
: <code>cr.B, cl.C, qcf+C > hcb+P > f+P</code>
:* Kyo's most damaging meterless low conversion, but requires a very tight 1-frame link from cr.B to cl.C.
 
''Anywhere''
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C > hcb+P > f+P</code>
:* Standard jump-in combo.
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, rdp+B/hcb+K</code>
:* Does less damage, but offers a hard knockdown instead of a soft one.
:* Note, rdp+B only combos on standing opponents.
 
''Very Close''
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+D > D, rdp+B</code>
:* Damaging upkick combo ending in hard knockdown that can be done anywhere on the screen, most commonly from a cross-up j.d+C or j.B. You need to be very close for qcf+D to connect after cl.C.
 
''Corner''
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+D > D, qcf+A > hcb+P > P</code>
:* Kyo's most damaging meterless combo, ends in hard knockdown. Can only be done near the corner.
 
===With Meter===
 
''Low''
 
: <code>cr.Bx1~2, cr.A, qcfx2+P</code>
:* Strong low confirm.
 
: <code>cr.B, cl.A, qcfx2+P</code>
:* Easier alternative to the previous combo. You can do this as cr.B, qcf+A, qcf+P for an easier cancel.
 
''Anywhere''
 
: <code>(j.X), cr.B, cr.A, qcfx2+P</code>
:* Good confirm into super.
 
: <code>(j.X), cr.A, qcfx2+P</code>
:* Use this variant to combo into super after a non-crossup j.d+C or if you're in max mode, as in either of these situations there will be too much pushback to reliably combo two crouching lights into super. Also useful if you are too far to connect cr.B, cr.A after a jump-in.
 
: <code>(j.X), cr.C, qcb,hcf+C</code>
:* Alternate super combo. Does less damage than comboing into qcfx2+P outside of max mode, but will do more damage in max mode than the previous combo. Does not work with the SDM version qcb,hcf+AC.
 
''Very Close''
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+D > D, qcb,hcf+P</code>
:* More damaging super combo. Can work from either midscreen or corner provided you're close enough for the upkicks to connect.
 
===With Quick MAX===
 
''Low''
 
: <code>cr.B, cr.A, ABC, cl.C, qcf+C > hcb+P > f+P</code>
:* Damaging quick max low combo.
:* You need a slight microwalk after the quick max activation for the full combo to connect. This combo is much easier with the increased walk speed from step.
 
: <code>cr.B, cr.A, ABC, cl.D, rdp+B</code>
:* Easy quick max combo from lows, no microwalk required and gives hard knockdown but less damaging and only works on standing opponents.
 
: <code>cr.Bx1~2, cr.A, qcfx2+ABC</code>
:* Max Bypass combo to go into SDM from crouching lights if you are not already in max mode. Make sure you are not holding any directions when you press ABC.
 
: <code>cr.B, cl.A, qcfx2+ABC</code>
:* Easier alternative to the previous combo. You can do this as cr.B, qcf+A, qcf+ABC for an easier cancel. Make sure you are not holding any directions when you press ABC.
 
''Anywhere''
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C, ABC, cl.C, qcf+C > hcb+P > f+P</code>
:* Standard quick max combo, good damage and gets you into max mode.
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C, ABC, cl.C, rdp+B</code>
:* Alternate quick max combo. Does a little less damage but ends in hard knockdown, only works on standing opponents.
 
: <code>j.B, ABC, cl.C, qcf+C > hcb+P > f+P</code>
:* High and fast jump-in combo enabled by quick max.
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C, ABC, cr.A, qcfx2+P</code>
:* Quick max combo into super. Most useful when you're at low health and have access to the SDM version of qcfx2+P, otherwise the first jump-in combo is better, as it lets you stay in max mode and the damage difference is small.
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C, ABC, qcb,hcf+AC</code>
:* Useful when you're at low health and have access to the SDM version of qcb,hcf+P. The first part of the SDM where Kyo is holding the flame will juggle the opponent, then you release to get the rest of the hits. Easier to execute than the previous combo, as you can do the super input during the quick max qcf+C recovery and hold the button to have it come out as soon as possible. Make sure you quick max as early as possible on the qcf+C so you have as much frame advantage as possible.
:* At the corner, you can get up to three hits with the initial part of the SDM qcb,hcf+P where Kyo is holding the flame.
:* Note: against [https://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php/The_King_of_Fighters_%2798_UMFE/System#Miscellaneous small and tiny crouchers], qcb,hcf+AC can be more prone to whiffing and you need to be quite close to the opponent for the combo to connect. When you recover from the qcf+C, after doing the super motion (qcb,hcf) you can continue to hold forward and delay the A/C press slightly so you get a slight walk forward, this will bring you a little closer and help you connect the SDM.
 
''Corner''
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C, ABC, cl.C, qcf+D > D, qcf+A > hcb+P > P</code>
:* Even more damaging quick max corner combo ending in hard knockdown, but you need to be very close for qcf+D to connect. On the initial jump-in, try timing cl.C so it hits as soon as you land so there's minimal pushback, and after quick max activation hold forward to ensure you're as close as possible for the upkicks to connect.
:* Try to delay the final follow-up of qcf+A a little bit, as max mode will result in the opponent bouncing slightly higher after hcb+P, so the final P follow-up can whiff if you do it too quickly.
 
: <code>(j.X), cl.C, qcf+C, ABC, cl.C, qcf+D > D, qcb,hcf+AC(2), qcf+A > hcb+P > P</code>
:* Kyo's highest damage combo possible. Requires low health as you need the SDM version of qcb,hcf+P to get the juggle. You need to be very close as with the previous combo.
:* To hit qcf+A after the SDM, you need to time the SDM so that only two hits connect. Make sure you delay the second kick of qcf+D.

Kyo-kof98.jpg


Introduction

Kyo is primarily a close-range pressure and mixup character. In neutral, he has access to some helpful moves for getting in, including his guard-point rekkas, as well as some solid poking normals. Close range is where Kyo is really good, as he can use his strong hop normals and lows to open up the opponent. He has good confirms into his DMs from both lows and heavies, as well as strong corner juggles, making his damage fairly high overall. On defense he has access to a good invincible DP. Kyo's weaknesses are that he lacks anything to fight at long range, since he doesn't have a projectile, and that his meterless low confirms are pretty lackluster.

Movelist

Kof98umfekyomovelist.png

Preferred Mode and Position

Although he slightly prefers some aspects of Advanced mode, Kyo can be effective in both Advanced and Extra mode.

Run vs Step

  • Kyo prefers Run over Step as it helps him with his up-close, rushdown game and it makes it easier to set up cross-ups after knockdowns.
  • However, Kyo isn't bad with Step as his step dash has good length and speed, and the increased walk speed helps with tick throws and can make a couple quick max combos easier.

Roll vs Dodge

  • Personal preference.

Advanced vs Extra Gauge

  • Kyo prefers Advanced gauge over Extra gauge, as he can build meter with his offense, Advanced gauge can store multiple stocks at once which allows Kyo to have more consistent access to his cr.B, cr.A, qcfx2+P super combo as a mid or anchor which is quite useful as his meterless low options are not great, and he doesn't need to stop his offense to charge after using meter.
  • However, Kyo can make pretty good use of Extra gauge as well since he has good quick max combos.

Preferred Position

  • Kyo benefits from being further back in your team order with both gauges. With Advanced gauge, he likes to have access to more saved up stocks for his super combos. With Extra gauge, he wants to take advantage of the greater red health window for free supers, which gets progressively bigger from the first to the third character.
  • Although, Kyo on point is more effective in Extra mode as he can charge up to get meter more quickly.

  • C version deals two hits, travels higher, and has more invincibility, making it a better reversal.
  • Unlike in Original 98, the second hit connects consistently in 98UMFE, making this a reliable anti-air and combo tool.
  • Doesn't technically have invincibility covering the first active frame, but it has upper body armor on frames 3-5 that can absorb attacks such as jump-ins, and Kyo's upper body doesn't have a hurtbox during the first part of the attack. This is a reliable anti-air, but it can trade against a meaty low attack.

  • MAX version has Kyo set his own body on fire, having its own hitbox with up to 3 hits. The fire wave itself does 3 hits as well.
  • If timed right, only two hits of the MAX version will connect. This puts the opponent in a juggle state that can be followed up with 623C.

General Notes

  • In Max Mode moves have more pushback, so some combos won't work the same. Most notably for Kyo, you cannot do two 2Bs into a 2A, and cl.C into 236D will only work at the corner, at midscreen it will miss even if do a cross-up or you don't do a jump-in.
  • cl.C is generally the preferred close normal to use in combos as it is slightly faster, but cl.D has a larger cancellable window which can be useful if you have trouble comboing into say, 236236P.
  • In any metered combo, you can replace 236236P with 236236AC or 2141236P with 2141236AC if you have 3 stocks in Advanced mode or are at low health and in max mode in Extra Mode.
