This game's really cool and I'm having fun zapping cars out of the air that Black Adam's tossing and then I realize he's picking them up while they're driving meaning there are still passengers inside. Edit: I'm also laughing a lot at Doomsday's weird fauxhawk. Push El Burrito fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Jun 6, 2013 |

It's in the last minute and yeah it was holding down. After 20 minutes of them crying that it needed to be nerfed. I don't know how it could possibly take that long. Maximillion said he was in training mode with Scorpion all day. I don't get it.

To be fair, holding straight down to block low is incredibly non-intuitive to someone coming from basically any other back-to-block fighter in the history of gaming.

To be even more fair, being dumb is kind of the norm for Injustice. I spent a good 20 matches against Bane before I realized that his charge wasn't the most imbalanced poo poo in the game, and was actually terrible. To the new players who are looking for people to pick, I suggest picking somebody who other people don't play very much. Catwoman, Killer Frost, and Ares are good examples. You have no idea how huge an advantage you get just from the opponent not knowing the match up. I constantly run into very high ranked/high XP players who just get wrecked because they don't know how good cat dash is as a reversal.

All the "personalities" who make internet videos of them playing games are complete and utter garbage, it's just one of those universal constants that you have to accept or maybe try to change, if you have some talent. I can't think of a single example, let alone one who plays FGs that doesn't utterly suck at games. Well, Arturo is actually really cool but he's not exactly what I'm talking about.

So far I've managed to hit someone 4 times with Scorpions Teleport Punch in a single combo. I want to try to go for 5, but I don't know if that's possible. Either way, comboing Teleport Punches off of each other looks cool as hell. It's just like a pillar of fire that the recipient bounces around in.

I find it ironic it would be him, but it had to be someone right? On an added note, after winning my first ranked match ever, with him, I proceeded to get another 12 in a row. Must be that teleport.

Scorpion's teleport is going to be my new Doomsday's comet move. As in, I can do it to pubbies over and over again and then get hatemail. I love it.

Blast Fantasto posted:Scorpion's teleport is going to be my new Doomsday's comet move. Doomsdays supernova will always be worse because it's unblockable and requires pubbies to grasp the concept of dashing at the right moment on reaction or when they expect it or even performing an appropriate attack to stuff it at the right time. Whilst you're taught that down blocking will block everything except for overheads during the tutorial. But I have no doubt teleport punch will cause tears to flow regardless since, ya know, anything except for letting them win will cause an overflow.

I beat a scorpion player yesterday by only sitting there holding down, and then doing a d3 when he whiffed off of me. It was the worst match.

That's true. Lately they don't wanna play with me when I'm using Scorpion  EDIT I think that this pretty much confirms that the another announcment this week is about the second season pass: https://twitter.com/noobde/status/342684059459280896 Or maybe not... https://twitter.com/noobde/status/342684400330346496 Goddamit Boon

Well I think it's a safe bet we'll see Zod next week at E3, and the "second season" will have at least MMH and one of the top poll characters (Red Hood, Zatanna). Surprised he hasn't committed to saying a full 4 character second season pass.

I'm still holding out hope that Zod was a troll the whole time, like they did with the MK9 DLC, and MMH is the final character in the first set.

As much as I would like that, the reality is that they're going to be announcing this 4th character on television, next week, a few days before one of the most marketed superhero movies and summer tentpoles ever. And that movie just happens to feature Superman. It would be pure foolishness to make that character Martian Manhunter and not a legendary Superman villiain. Which means, essentially, that it's almost certainly Zod. And the television show is almost certainly Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

They're both very different, very cool interpretations of the character and I'll be glad to get either one of them in the game. I hope to have both the "armor" outfit and the "black" outfit, with appropriate voices. Also I would like Mike Tyson's Punch Out and some quarters for the arcade. --MMJS, Age 10

So far, my favorite Scorpion Combo is j3 db3 d2 j3 db3 db3MB j3 db3. It only does like 19%, but it looks cool and really disorients the enemy. I've also found j3 db3 d2 j2 112 bf1MB j3 db3 to be another really cool looking one, can't remember the damage though. His Hellfire is by far his best move, forcing them to do something they don't want to do. Jump. If someone is in the air, just throw a db3 at 'em and try to hit the 112bf1mb off of the little juggle room you have.

Frankly I can't believe batgirl, scorpion and zod were actually leaked. I was perfectly confident it was a lead-on by NetherRealm to gently caress with us. I smug faced at everyone naive enough to believe it was real. But nope. They really had the first for dlc characters hidden in the games data. Brilliant.
