Karnov's Revenge is a 1994 fighting game developed by Data East, released for the Neo Geo. It is the second game in the Fighter's History series. The game was later ported to the Neo Geo, Neo Geo CD and Sega Saturn home consoles.

Gameplay:

While the previous game was similar to Street Fighter's 6-button setup, the gameplay system of Karnov's Revenge is akin to SNK's fighting games such as Fatal Fury. Due to change of hardware to SNK's MVS platform, the control configuration was reduced from six attack buttons to just four (only light and heavy attacks are available this time).

A new gameplay feature is introduced in the form of "one-two attacks". When the player presses a heavy attack button while performing a light attack or blocking, the interval between light attacks is reduced, making combos easier to perform. While this feature is not mentioned on the instruction card, the final page of the home Neo Geo version's manual mentions it, describing as the "one-two attack" system.

All eleven fighters from the previous game return (including the bosses Clown and Karnov, who are now playable) and are joined by two new characters: Yungmie, a female taekwondo exponent from Korea, and Zazie, a karate practitioner from Kenya, for a total of 13 characters. Karnov is the only returning character who was given entirely new sprites. Most of the returning characters were given new special techniques (with a few exceptions), including hidden techniques which are not listed on the instruction card (the manual for the home version hints at their inclusion). The Ox that appeared in the bonus rounds in Karate Champ appears in this game as a secret boss if the player completes the game on the Normal setting or above without losing a round. The Ox is an unplayable character.

I haven't played this game in ages, but i remember well, back then at the arcades, i used to play well with Samchay and Ray, it felt good to revisit this game again.

Lee comes from a long line of Bajiquan masters, so he strives for perfection. He wanted to get revenge on Karnov for the death of his father Gentoku, but has learned that revenge does not make you strong, and wants to prove himself by fighting Karnov with honor. This doesn't come through in his gameplay.

A hardcore rushdown character, Lee is a contender for #1 in the game, though he's in competition with Zazie. You can expect the simplest combos to lead to staggering damage with Lee. He demolishes most weak points in the game with ease. His speed is unmatched thanks to his Dagger Punch (Qcf.png+P.png), which hits weak points easily along with its knockdown followup, TetsuzanKou Lee is easy to pick up, and he becomes absolutely deadly in the hands of a skilled player.

His main weakness is fireballs, as he lacks a move designed to get around them like some characters. However, you can often get the jump on people with his Quick Dagger Punch.
