The King of Fighters (KOF) meme culture draws from the long-standing SNK fighting game franchise that first debuted in 1994. Known for its iconic character rosters, dramatic 'Versus' screens, and memorable catchphrases like Terry Bogard's 'Are you okay?', the series has provided endless fodder for the internet. Memes often utilize the three-on-three team selection format or the pixel-art aesthetic of the Neo Geo era to depict real-life conflicts as epic fighting game matchups. From mocking character designs to celebrating the intense difficulty of boss Rugal Bernstein, KOF memes serve as a nostalgic nod to arcade culture while humorously framing everyday struggles as legendary battles.
