Friday I amazed myself by actually beating KOF 2000. My previous try resulted in a loss to the boss, and before that Chang destroyed my team in the first round.
How does the boss from 2000 stack up against the bosses from the other games?
Does anybody else dislike Chang as much as I do?
Like most of the other folks said, I have a hard time with Choi... Chang's just a big target.
As for the bosses, I thought 2k Zero was one of the easiest, actually. It could just be because 2000's striker system made for easy 100% combos, but Zero didn't really have any super-duper high-priority counter like Krizalid, Rugal 2k2, and Igniz have (unless you count the super, but he doesn't seem to use it all that often). Then again, it could also be because 2000 was one of the KoFs I played the most (which could explain why '98 O. Rugal is also one of the easiest for me).
Hardest to easiest KoF bosses (excluding '94/'95 Rugal because I don't remember him all that well):
Igniz ('01) - Pattern boss all the way. If you don't know the pattern, you die. Unblockable, infinites (that he has no qualms about using), incredibly useful supers, etc. Has answers for almost any situation.
Krizalid (2nd form, '99) - Partially '99s useless systems, partially the fact that he had an answer for everything. Tornados are TOUGH to beat and the fact that he's essentially a 2-man team boss makes him pretty damn tough.
Rugal (2k2) - Lightning fast Kaiser Wave, damn-near-inpenetrable high-priority Genocide Cutter, etc. Not bad once you realize his weaknesses, but still tough as nails.
O. Rugal ('98) - Not quite as tough to get in on as 2002 Rugal. That big white projectile that was tough to avoid (no, not the one in JJJ's tag) sucked, but I can't really think of any other reason to fear '98 Rugal. Then again, like I said, I've played 98 to death so perhaps I'm just accustomed to fighting him.
Goenitz ('96) - Fear tornados... but not too much. One of the easiest bosses... once you finally reach him. ;)
Zero (2000) - Jump-in. Throw. Repeat. Even without the easy pattern, 2000 Zero really doesn't inspire fear. Sure, the super does big damage and covers the entire screen, but when he's not doing that, he and his Hitler mustache are pretty open to get hit by basic shit. Oh, and one combo in to strikers and he was pretty much screwed.
O. Zero (2001) - the easiest SNK boss ever (well, almost). Block cape, run-in + combo. Repeat. Yeah, unblockable super after Ron assist sucked, but it didn't do all that much damage. Unless you're playing Chang/Maxima with 2 strikers, there's really no excuse for losing to him.
Orochi ('97) - Pitifully easy. I rarely ever had to go to my second teammate.

And it's a shame, given he's a god, after all... But yes, the 3 orochi-CYS before him were much, much harder.
About Chang... I like him, even though I suck with him (and Smart Chang is hummm) but I don't remember the computer beeing evil with him (Even in 95. Fear '95 Chang!). Same thing for Choi, I don't remember the computer using him effectively. It's like nobody likes him, even the programmers, so they didn't bother to give him an effective AI.
When I use a team with characters I don't know, fighting the Korea team is a blessing. The exact opposite of the AoF team.

Easiest to Hardest KOF Bosses
'97 Orochi - You're going to take over the world? Puh-leaze...2001 Zero -
2001 Original Zero - Block, Rush, Free Combo, Rinse, Wash Repeat.
2000 Zero - I agree. Jump-in, Throw.
'99 Krizalid (2nd Form) - I'm sure he'd whup my ass right now Cold Turkey, but once I got into the '99 Groove, I'm sure I'd remember how to beat him. I never had much trouble.
'95 Omega Rugal - Easier than '94...
'98 Omega Rugal - On the bright side, after 2002, I am no longer as intimidated as I used to be because I know it can be a lot worse.
'96 Goenitz - DMs anytime? X_x
'94 Rugal - Not necessarily hard, but it's difficult to beat him just because we're so limited in Gameplay and Moves in the First Edition.
2001 Igniz - Cheap Bastard, QCF+C...
2002 Rugal - I don't even try anymore...
"You should get to know me better no one's every what they seem..."
