Rollback netcode and GODLIKE opponents | KOF2002 UM

Justin Wong takes on Emilkof in King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match, celebrating the arrival of rollback netcode for this beloved classic. The addition of rollback connectivity transforms the experience, enabling smooth online play that lets both players execute the game's intricate offense and defense at full speed. Wong faces serious competition here—Emilkof demonstrates the kind of coordinated pressure and reads that define high-level play in this title. King's rushdown tools and command normals become especially potent when lag no longer interferes with tight inputs and spacing decisions. The video captures Wong's enthusiasm for experiencing the game at its best, free from the input delay that previously hampered online matches. This is fighting game infrastructure making a tangible difference: the same game, same characters, same fundamentals, but finally playable without compromise. Watch as both players adapt to clean netcode gameplay and push the match's pace accordingly.
