And oh wow, his trait monster does 25% if you just do it's attack 5 (5% each hit with 5 maximum if you just keep mashing trait) times and it comes back pretty quick, it also seems to have Aquaman trait kind of activation, you can be moving or attacking and hitting trait will still make it go.

The regular trait attack doesn't combo into itself so it doesn't do 25%. You can block it by holding back or down. You can block its command grab by holding back but not down. He seems pretty rad he's got a lot of stuff to play with.

Looks like they learned their lesson with Cyborg and made Zod's instant-air wait a good number of frames before it can come out. It can hit standing targets, but I can't get it low enough to hit crouching. He's also a power character for interactions. Seems kinda neat, gonna play around with him more.

So I won't be making it to Kneel Before Goons for sure and pulled my name out of the bracket.

Hopefully we can make these a more common thing and I'll be able to play next time!

Got some more donations for first prize from Cams. First place now receives 30 copies of DotA on Steam and Second now gets 2 copies of Half-Life 2. There is still time to register too, http://challonge.com/InjusticeGoons2

Also, I'm really enjoying this tournaments as well. I'm more than game for another Xbox one and I think we should get one going for the PS3 guys as well. No reason for us to have all of the fun.

So, I've been diddling with Zod, and I think I may have found someone other than Scorpion that I could do some good things with. He's got some really neat combo potential before even looking at his trait.
The best I have gotten so far was a 32%. f21u2XXdb1 db2MB bf2. If you throw another MB on the db1 it will miss, and putting one on the bf2 increases damage to 35%. Also, f23 f23 d2 db2MB is possible. Though I always get to excited and miss the intended bf2 at the end, so I don't know what the damage is there yet.

~Bad Opinions~

Some of my Zod opinions.

His startup on his walk is painfully slow, but his dash is pretty good. He's looking much more like a ranged fighter. His crouching normals have some pitiful range. With his trait and db2 MB, he looks to be combo heaven. Good addition and I can't wait for season 2 to start.

Found that the f21u2XXdb1 can be a rest setup with a regular charged db2. If you feeling zesty enough, just do a super off of that charged db2 for a 42% with the previous reset of 16%. I'd consider 58% to be a good use of super come mid health bar.

Also, if anyone would like to fight or practice, hit me up on Xbox. GT: UnboundIr0n M4n. I'll be trying out Zod for the most part.

I like the outfit, but god I just want an Ares alt where they give him the proper *Helmet with a black void and 2 shining red eyes* head. Him actually having flesh just makes it look like he moonlights as a chimney-sweep or a coal miner.

You know what, yeah. This is totally my problem with how Ares looks, no matter what his costume is. Thankfully you only see him from the side during fights...

Out for only a few hours and already there's a glitch in Zods trait:

Event Hubs posted:

It seems that when Zod's trait is instructed to grab when the opponent has an interaction with the stage, the trait will get stuck repeating and whiffing the animation.

Lame, man. I guess it wouldn't be a NetherRealm DLC without some kind of janky/broken poo poo.

Try out X-Chat Aqua or LimeChat. Both are free and have their pros and cons.

In my practice session both him and Ares did their idle laugh at the same time. Zod just sticks his hand out laughing, and Ares looked like he had himself a Santa Chuckle.

I'm kind of going through a character crisis right now. I've played a bunch of matches with Doomsday and Black Adam, and I'm looking for a 3rd character to learn. I tried Nightwing because he seems interesting to me, but I can never seem to get his Escrima Fury combos to work online. I tried Green Lantern but he feels too.... same-y. I just feel like I'd get tired of b13 into Lantern's Might match after match after match. Anyone have any suggestions?

Catwoman. I'd say Raven because she has the easiest combos for me to land online, but her gameplay is similar to your problem with Green Lantern, just in a different way.

Batgirl. She's pretty different from Doomsday and Black Adam and if you have the skill to so her nasty vortex online (not hard unless you have lovely Internet like me) it can get ugly quickly. I am terrible with Aquaman but I really like his playstyle, a lot of footsies and easy combos if you juggle late. I still favor Grundy but a lot of folks can handle him if they play smart and switch up from normal tactics.

If you just desperately need to win go with Superman and f23 into breath.


Also I agree with the Raven suggestion above, she can be really really fun but if you have an off day, you're gonna have a bad time. Also when trait is up she plays much more offensively (though still not a rushing character IMO) which can be a pleasant switch.

Oh my god, Zod takes Killer Frost sliders straight to the own-zone with his command grab. :allears:

Edit: OH BOY, Scorpion's loving tele-punch breaks Zod's trait too, if you try to grab Scorp when he does it the ghost will just stay behind him whiffing forever. I still beat that assclown though, trait or no, Zod always wins. :black101:

Sometimes, the scrubby excuses people make when they lose are true. Nevertheless, good games SuddenBlackout and Unbound. 1-2 (3-4 on matches) is acceptable even if the 1 was on a bye, and the excitement these SA tourneys bring is always nice.
