Wow, took a while but whatevs. This team looks siiiiiick! Kukri is such a generic badass guy, it's unbelievable with his outfit and his sand abilities. Sylvie Paula Paula, amazing! I absolutely love her "original" design and it doesn't hurt that she's generally annoying. Definitely maining her online! Razz And Mian, really cool. I didn't know that she was a chick btw, she's really slick in movement and I love her Bian Lian-based fighting style. Can't wait for the game to be released!

They re-branded themselves as just SNK.

4Gamer has done an interview with the KOFXIV Devs.

Agreed, it's been a while but we finally get to see Mian. Well first off, I love the team's theme. Second, Mian seems like my type of char; flashy and pretty mobile. There's a good amount of footage I haven't checked out yet, including people playing a build at CEO so I need to watch all of that. Finally, Xanadu's one of the most hilarious chars I've seen, love the guy.

2 things regarding this team, 1st they are also earth, electricity, fire users just like the old orochi team; 2nd kurki might or not be ron, due to his sand powers and hiding his face.

I can see Mian being very popular. I mean cute, shy girl hiding behind masks? Adorable. Of the three, I'm most excited to try her out. As far as Sylvie goes, I'm in that camp that doesn't HATE her, but I'm not exactly her biggest fan either.

Also Kukri looks cool.

I'm surprised you made the connection to the New Faces/Orochi team first. I mean, considering the fact that the New Faces team itself is a parallel of Team Japan. Also, didn't check the article out so I missed that the Villains Team trailer was up too. Razz Yeah, Xanadu's a real weirdo. He literally swings his arms around and has a command grab where he cradles and rocks the opponent before breaking their back. Pretty good to me.

Also, I don't speak Japanese so I need clarification from a Japanese speaker; what is Choi saying? He sounds like he's ending sentences with the same syllable.
