Many people have requested a kobra strategy guide so here it is. Many of
the tatics you will see below were tought to me by a ps2 fight
named "chimage" so some credit should go to him.....................

Kobra


Kobra is a fast martial arts specialist, many people think of him as a glitcher, so on so forth. He can be used in my opinion, 2 different ways...a kali stick kobra and a shorin ryu charactor. I use my kobra as a shorin ryu charactor so most of the tactics here will be revolving around that stance.

Special Moves

low fireball-use this after a throw or against a turtling opponet

high fireballi think the arsenal is useless because of its reaction time and it can be easily blocked

flaming punchthis move is very fast so do it when you think the fighter is leaste expecting it..this is also a free throw attack

switch screen punch use this move also when you this thew opponet is leaste expecting it or when you think your cornerd and about to be knocked into a dt

*Shorin Ryu*( i think thats how you spell it)


There are man unlisted combos in the stance...you can practically put the attack 2(button 2) in front of every combo within this stance.(The numbers in * * are optional and can be put in the begining of each combo)

Ex.2,1,1,4,cs.......2,1,2,u4....ect

The main moves to remember and the way to use those moves are list listed below:

*2*,1,1,4-this move stuns them if they block, imediatly side step and do this again (80% of the time the seccond combo around works)

*2*,1,1,3,cs-mix this move up without the button 2 to confuse the opponet

*2*,1,1,3,3-this is a great move to do after the *2*,1,1,4 combo

2,3,3-also use this combo after the *2*,1,1,4

*2*,1,2,u3-this move to me is worthless but many kobra like to follow up their stun combo with this move

d,1-fast low poke, follow this up with a u,3 (side step kick) to fool your opponet, also use the side step kick against a good side stepping opponet


^^^^^those above are practically the only moves to learn within the shorin ryu stance.....

(combos coming soon)

Kickboxing


This move has a few 50/50 mix ups....

2,2,2- this move is unlisted and is also a free throw....after the throw change stance into the kali sticks and use the combo 2,4,3....about 50%

b3,3-nice combo that hits directly if the opponet isnt blocking

b4-nice sweeping kick

u2,-a good launcher, follow this up with either one of the combos listed below

1,3,cs-hits them twice then takes out the kali sticks and knocks them half way accross the screen

1,1,2,cs-hits 3 time then takes out kali sticks and spins them

^^^^^those are also the only moves worth knowing in that stance......

(combos coming soon....)

Kali Sticks


Many people debat on if this is a cheap stance or not...but whocares it;s in the game so use it.

f1-this is a great launcher follow it up with a few of the moves listed below

1,1,2,4,b3-this is his combo with the most hits in it...mix this up with the 1,1,2,4,3 to confuse the challenger

u3- cool flashy mide hit knock down move...instantly change stance and do a *2*1,1,3,cs...hits almost everytime

like i said before, i don't know too much about kali sticks because i was trained to use his other stance...

(combos coming soon...)

That is really all to know to use a good kobra believe it or not, it might look small but it sure is effective.............One more tip with kobra, never let your opponet get up..stay on his their ass like a pack of wolves...

I will take any suggestions on combos, move (preferably kali stick), ect
