* BizarroEpisode: ''KOF XI'' stands out from the rest of the series for how unconventional its characters are in many aspects. It is a much further departure from ''2003'' and breaks decade-long traditional team compositions (Kim and Duck King in the Fatal Fury team?). A lot of long-standing characters like Leona and Andy are missing, and even Mai and Robert had to wait for the [=PS2=] version to be added back. ''XI'' includes newcomers from ''VideoGame/FuunSeries'' and ''VideoGame/BurikiOne'', two series that was never represented before and after this game as of ''XV''. Even the final boss, Magaki, is quite unusual for his shoot 'em up pattern attacks. By ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFightersXIII'', what's established in this game was sweeped out of the window and the series has rarely acknowledged this again.

* ScrappyMechanic: The arcade version requires running the game for a certain amount of time to unlock the mid-bosses as playable characters, which ranges from 720 (Adelheid) to 1440 hours (Hayate). At the time, this was an incentive to keep coming back to the game for new contents, but now it's a roadblock that prevents the player from using them when the arcade owners install the game years later. Thankfully, this is easily overcome by hacking in save data.

** Malin has a few bugs involving her LDM:
*** It can be Quick Shifted out of if, and only if, you Dream Cancel into it.
*** Hitting a downed opponent with it during the last few frames where that can be done causes it to no longer be counted as part of the combo, [[https://twitter.com/zerio_youhei/status/1380089471513718784 resetting the damage scaling]].
** Robert's forward walk has [[https://twitter.com/ATG213/status/1045409306684911616 8 frames of complete invulnerabilty]] for some reason.
* ThatOneAttack:
** Magaki has three:
*** ''Phantom Sphere'' fires a projectile that's incredibly large, beats all other projectiles, and deals a lot of damage if it isn't blocked. There are moves that can go through them, but they only work consistently on the Strong Punch version. Good luck trying to figure out which version's which while Magaki is actively spamming all of them.
*** If you somehow manage to get through all of the fireballs, he can simply use ''Exploding Sphere'' to send you back to square one. It's huge, completely invincible, and sends you flying. Also, it can reflect projectiles. [[SarcasmMode Because he totally needed that]].
*** His LDM, ''Universe Distortion'', covers the entire screen. That alone would be bad enough, but it lasts long enough to KO one of your characters, then hit the next one as they're coming in.
