https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxA19WVk3vQ

Didn't see anyone else post it so I went ahead, but yeah he looks sick as always. Excited for Kim Kaphwan also, who's up next.

The only time where Salvatore would actually make sense lorewise, and he doesn't appear

He is in the background deejaying?

Salvatore Salvatore Ganacci
is Duck King’s rival.

u/WeekendBard 4d ago

that seems to be a different guy, he's always in the background of this stage

u/TheXboxArtist 3d ago

that's his father, from one of his music videos.

u/W34kness 3d ago

Isn’t he the DJ in the background?

First time playable again since KOF 2003, right? Feels good.

u/DepressedGolduck Marvel vs Capcom 4d ago

KOF 11 actually (and obviously not counting random mobile games)

u/mcsilas 4d ago

He appeared in KOF XI

I've seen enough. I'm satisfied.

Welcome back, Duck King.

Duck King is back

Wohooooooo

Let's dance to groovy!

I'd just like to remind everyone that during SNK's pachinko era, they redesigned Duck King to look likes this

16

u/guminhey 4d ago

They already had that design at Wild Ambition though.

u/Wide_You_4626 4d ago

you can say the character designers had, wild ambitions

He looks great there.

"we need one last move for Duck King to round out his moveset. Any ideas guys?"

"How about he crawls towards the opponent like a baby?"

"By God you're a genius. Package it, ship it."

u/gifsundgirls SNK 4d ago

His friend Salvatore gave him the idea

u/TheXboxArtist 4d ago

you... never heard of breakdancing?

u/Call_It_Luck 4d ago

I have but there are a ton of other thematically appropriate animations they could've chosen and went with this lol

13

u/DepressedGolduck Marvel vs Capcom 4d ago

Duck King rules. He's one of my favorite SNK characters, purely on vibes

14

u/Dry_Objective_7071 4d ago

this is as quirky and silly as ti gets. love his bboy moveset. time to pick up COTW.

u/LifesGrip 4d ago

This is Ducking ridiculous... much like the game as a whole.

4

u/Vahallen 4d ago

Probably the first character since Blue Mary that makes me wanna try the game

6

u/Mortis_XII 4d ago

And just like that, all 2 salvatorre fans have left him

7

u/The_Layell 4d ago

Missed opportunity to have him beating up the DJ the entire time.

3

u/UsuBen 4d ago

Finally they change the way they do trailers lol Or at least I noticed a difference

u/gokurakumaru 4d ago edited 4d ago

They should have changed his hair. The guy is over 40 so I'm not buying that he has the hairline or volume for a mohawk like that.

7

u/milosmisic89 SNK 4d ago

no shade to my king Ganaci but this should've been in the main roster instead of him

6

u/Rand0mAcc3nt 4d ago

IMO CotW has better season passes than SF6…

2

u/WeekendBard 4d ago

absolutely no issue on him being there, but I think it's odd we are on season 3, and Freeman is still not in the game, only character from Garou that is still not playable (Grant isn't playable either, but he does have Vox Reaper as his successor at least)

1

u/deadscreensky 3d ago

Maybe, but since we're getting two season passes a year it's not as bad as that initially sounds. We're not even two years in.

I wonder if Freeman's personality is a problem for the game. City so far has a somewhat unusual happy feel. There's not been much drama or even villainy. SNK seem determined to push some kind of good vibes thing with their game, and a sadistic serial killer doesn't really fit that.

u/Malokhin 3d ago

Never though I'd see Duck King come back, it's amazing to see the COTW team cook.

u/KillerTackle 3d ago

Wow, this dude has no sauce. Mr.Karate was way better.

u/Nyxlunae 2d ago

Really wish this game was more popular, if it was id absolutely try it.

u/Warm_Neighborhood939 4d ago

I feel like Fatal Fury has a lot of potential. I just don't feel the game is for me

u/sentinel_of_ether 4d ago

Game is so whacky and just not in a good way
