What would be a good jumping off point if I wanted to get into the KOF series?

I picked up the game yesterday. I'll give you my impressions later tonight when I get home. Until then, here's some Max.

I did a run through arcade mode. The final boss is a biatch, but not the biggest pain the series. In fact, she is one of the easier final bosses in a KOF game. I noticed that XV is more casual and is the most casual friendly KOF game in the franchise. This is not a bad thing, as even though combos and super cancels are easier to do, a player still has to know what they're doing and have skills. I'll be in training mode for a while as I want to get good at this. I went with Team Wolf for my arcade run. It's sweet pulling off these new and refined mechanics. I have not tried a Climax Super yet, but I will try and do that next time.
