KOF XIV Team Yagami Artwork
Team Yagami (
Description[]
As the name implies, this team is formed by Iori Yagami and some characters who have aligned with him, acting as a primary Team Rivals in the Orochi Saga. The first formation occurs in The King of Fighters '95, and the '96 incarnation is the most well-known formation, which returns in '98/UM and 2002/UM, and canonically in XIII, XIV and XV.
At first, the real objective of the team was to rival the protagonists of the SNK franchises (Kyo Kusanagi, Terry Bogard and Ryo Sakazaki), but, with the unstable behavior of its leader, this proposal was undone. With the sole aim of killing Kyo, Iori constantly allies himself with the two servants of Orochi, Mature and Vice (despite both women being Sacred Treasures' enemies) and, in the 8th entry in the series, with the agents Vanessa, Seth and Ramón, always with the same goal: killing Kyo and anyone who cross his path.

Members' Participation[]
- Participation of the members of the team during the mainline series (and some spin-offs).
- Note 1: About the colors in the table, they follow the logic below:
- Yellow: for table titles and undefined/dual status.
- Lime & Red: for the characters' participation in the team.
- Forest Green & Fire Brick: the first color indicates the characters who participated in the team in all times which he appeared in the series, and the second indicates the characters who were absent in the team from, at least, one game in the series.
- Note 2: Due to the fact that Iori is Kyo's direct rival (and the only Three Sacred Treasures cursed by Orochi), the KOF '96 formation, with Mature and Vice (two Orochi servants), appears with their participations in yellow.
