Tips and Strategy Guide

Get Your Free Diamonds Every Day

As a "free to play" player, KOF '98 Ultimate Match Online offers you several sources to get diamonds for free. Diamonds are the most valuable currency in the game, which you can buy with real money. These are the daily activities you must complete to get as many diamonds as possible in the game.

"Check-in" and "total check-in pack" rewards both include diamonds, so make sure to log in every day to get a nice amount of diamonds per month.

The arena will reward you with diamonds every day according to your rank. The better the rank, the better the rewards. This means you will need to assemble a decent team fast to get those daily diamonds sooner. Below I will recommend you some of the best fighters for beginners and the easiest to unlock. (You can claim the diamonds in your email.)

The daily combo reward is 50 diamonds. You will have to execute a specific combo to earn this reward. Ask for it from the leader of your club, or you can also ask in the world chat window; people are always willing to tell (you can claim the reward in your email).

Join the club battle every day. No matter if your team doesn't perform very well, you still receive 20 diamonds as a reward (check your Email to claim).

Join the clone battle every day and complete the three stages for the chance to get up to 30 diamonds.

Billy stick (club feature) is a mini-game that will grant you some diamonds according to your performance. In the beginning, you most likely won't get too many, but once you reach level 62, you will unlock the "skip to stage 20" feature making it so much easier to reach the max amount of diamonds you can get per day in this mini-game which is 60.

Keep tracking the official calendar events since some of them give away diamonds, and there are other important promotions you should consider.

Do Not Spend Any Diamonds

Diamonds are probably the most important currency in KOF98 UM Online. They can be purchased with real money, and they can also be acquired by free players through the game without spending a cent. You will have to be more patient and careful with your diamond management as the game will tempt you to spend them many times throughout the day.

There are obviously, some exceptions to this rule, such as limited events or sales where spending diamonds is really worth it. I will name them in the tips below.

Where to Spend Diamonds

This is really a subjective topic, besides the first x10 draw to get a 4-star fighter, which is a recommended investment. It really depends on your play style. Some people may be looking for specific fighters since they are their favorite characters from the King of Fighters universe, some others won't care about that at all, and they just want to get the strongest fighters to be super competitive. Both are valid reasons to play.

So let's say you are part of the first group, and there's a sale where you can buy your favorite fighter for a set amount of diamonds. Go for it! The lucky draw event is too risky, in my opinion, since you can spend literally thousands of diamonds, and that does not guarantee you get the desired fighter; I rather invest in a safe bet. If you want to try your luck in this event, I suggest you have at least 18000 diamonds to invest in.

If you are one of the second group, save a lot of diamonds so you can get your first Aptitude 14 fighter as soon as possible from the time-limited draw chest. I will explain this event below.
