He has 2 strings that naturally go together, and huge hitboxes on other ones. The trickiest part of any combo in the game (besides the weird need for precision) for me has always been landing a b3 after a string but his b3 has to be landed after a huge ground bounce which makes it easier imo.

The patches didn't do much except shuffling a few characters around and nerfing some already bad ones (Kano) for no good reason. Like 90% of the effort went into fixing Cyrax and look how well that turned out.

Edit: That said they seem to be taking it slow with the balance changes to Injustice so far, so that's a step in the right direction from MK9.

I remember the summer of Jax.

Safer than a whiff but I'm not sure how punishable it is still.

EQ by itself really isn't that impressive, EQ with the threat of meter behind it in the corner is though. 22 df2 or 22 df2mb basically means they guess which you're going to do and risk eating full combo if they guess wrong with regards to the meter burn version.

It's also safe iirc.

Stage transitions are also unclashable so you can use them to guarantee a death.

It only mentions on hit, not on block. Don't get hit and you'll probably still be able to punish.

I think the issue was even if it hit someone, they could punish you after without meter lol.

Did you mean to quote someone else...?

No. Deathstroke's spin was like a self tech trap where if you managed to land a hit with it, pushing a button afterward meant you were going to eat something. The issue wasn't never being hit, or not being able to punish it. The problem was there was no reason to use it for DS players.

Even now with the "+4" it'll just make everyone return to that weird neutral state that JMCrofts talked about.

Well there was a reason to use it if you felt like EX-ing it. It's the best reversal he's got.

I mentioned meter earlier but yeah

AnonSpore posted:

I'm still not seeing how that's relevant to my post, which was a response to another poster misinterpreting safe on hit as safe on block.

I was elaborating on your non-elaboration. I don't see why this is an issue.

Turtling won't mean anything once Batgirl is released. That teleport... :getin:

I hope her teleport is good for catching zoners like smoke's was (along with his parry) but from the trailer it looks like you have to pick where it goes (far/mid/close) so it'd be kind of hosed up if there was a deadzone for it.

Edit: Her 111 string is something silly like +22 on hit, so instead of a frame trap you just get a safe mixup attempt after it.

I expect people to test it later but there seems to be a huge gap between the 2nd and 3rd 1 so I assume it can be interrupted/parried

Here's something you can do right now in Ranked:

Pick batgirl, stay max distance and get fireballed until you have 1 bar of meter (or you know, punch them at the beginning), let them get comfortable and then dd3 mb, j2 b12 d2 bf1, 1, mb, d2, bf1, 1, mb, until they die.

I have absolutely no idea why the frame shakes during this, but it's exciting regardless.

Her teleport is pretty fair too since it leaves you full screen without meter burn imo. She's basically smoke with an actual 50/50 and options. I'm definitely going to keep working at her.

It's a true infinite too, you just need to alter the timing of the d2 to punch them as soon as they reach you so the bola connects.

Just tested the hotfix

Here's what they fixed: the infinite.

Here's what they didn't fix: MB bola without meter.

Actually they may not have fixed it? I went online and everything. Sometimes they fall out but I'm doing 3 reps of the bola loop without meter as long as you don't start with just the bola.

edit: Was the hotfix for PS3 or xbox? I figured it would have been straight to an ini since I didn't download anything on my PS3.

For some reason in single player training it was showing as "unblockable" but in online training mode the MB version of bola now hits mid. So yeah, guess it's fixed.

edit: I'll prob join some rooms this week (not tonight). I'm out of practice due to Dragon's Dogma lol.
