When used with Striker Clark , he can combo his Galactica Phantom at good timing which of course makes colossal damages even if he's very good with Striker Kasumi also like he can combo Umanori Vulcan Punch in corner, whiff build meter with hcf+K and after pressure with j+CD in corner on opponent's wakeup.

Introduction

Top-tier character (top 3 of best no-banned characters in kof99 certainly).


Ralf is a tank, counter-hit, poke and fundamental mixup type character.


Famous friend of Clark and Leona.

Mid-Tier as Striker.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • One of the more damaging characters in the game
  • Easy to play
  • Great normals - huge priority, safe, good reach, and solid frame traps
  • One of, if not, the best j.CD in the game
  • Unblockable Galactica Phantom setup after Umanori Vulcan Punch
  • Command throw to build meter and setup into
  • No fireball
  • No viable reversal

Movelist

Normals

Far Normals

st.A
Kof.lp.png
Ralf stA.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
6 or 7 or 8 Mid 0 - Chain 2 7 5 14 0 -2 No

Short range, but weirdly high priority. I've seen it beat quite a lot of shit because it stays out for longer than most standing As. Anti-air vs short hop.

st.B
Kof.lk.png
Ralf stB.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
5 or 6 Mid 0 - No Cancel 4 8 5 17 -1 -3 -

Not bad, fast, hits most characters crouching, unlike standing A and it stays out for longer than standing far A

st.C

Ralf stC.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
13 or 14 or 15 Mid 0 - No Cancel 11 5 21 37 -6 -8 -

Nice long-range poke with good power and priority.

st.D

Ralf stD.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
12 or 13 Mid 0 - No Cancel 10 7 14 31 -1 -3 -

Can't be crouched under, so it's got that going for it. Slower and shorter-ranged than standing C, so don't use this if you can use that.

Close Range Normals

cl.A
Kof.lp.png
Ralf cl A.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
6 or 7 Mid 0 - Cancel 1 6 5 12 1 -1 -

Fastest close attack of game. Very effective vs short hop and good priority / hitbox. However it whiffs vs low crounching characters.

cl.B
Kof.lk.png
Ralf cl B.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
5 Mid 0 - Cancel 2 6 5 13 1 -1 -

Nice as a meaty, since you can link stuff of it. Good as a combo filler after a crossup, too.

cl.C
Kof.sp.png
Ralf cl C.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
12 or 13 or 14 Mid 0 - Cancel 7 4 16 27 0 -2 -

Most damaging fast move to combo into backbreaker. Some characters can crouch under it, though.

cl.D

Ralf cl D.jpg
Damage Guard Guard Damage Stun Cancel Properties Startup Active Recovery Total Hit Advantage Block Advantage Invulnerability
11 or 12 or 13 Mid 0 - No Cancel 7 4 12 23 4 2 -

This move is interesting for Ralf's mixups because it gets positive frame advantage like you can see.

Crouching Normals

Ralf cr A.jpg

- Mid 0 - Chain 2 3 8 13 1 -1 -

Cancelable, combo filler of choice along with cr.C for characters that can crouch under his close C.

cr.B

Ralf crB.jpg

Can link into backbreaker too.

- Mid 0 - Cancel 5 7 10 22 3 1 -

Awesome high-priority move, much like standing C but lower to the ground. Cancelable, and Ralf's most meaty attack.

- Mid 0 - Cancel 16 6 12 34 KD 4 -

Nice range. Very spammable move in kof 99 and one of better CD counter of game because you can juggle combo it with Close D or Umanori Vulcan Punch when you hit opponent in counter hit.

Probably the best jump CD of game because it beats or trade all the strikers of game. A little slow but huge priority and blockstun.
