TLDR: Tom is right and you rush down fools are scrubby whiny crybabies that need this kind of pressure to win.
This is a great post. The real reason we do not see more Lui Kang hate is bc he requires execution which the majority of this community does not have. What Tom highlights could possible be some of the strongest offense in the history of the MK series.
Of course we see the rush down fools quick to weigh in and say "ohh u can just poke out" blah blah blah. Everyone knows that Dizzy is a fan of mindless pressure and rush down since the MK9 days. He knows that if Lui Kang is exposed as broken (which he is) that Johnny Cage may get toned down since he is a less good version of Kang.
There is an important point that the rush down fools seem to not understand. This pressure has variability. He does not ALWAYS have to do the same loop over and over. The threat of it freezes you and opens you up to throws/stagger pressure/b2/f4 et cetera. What happens when he lands a d3/throw/b2 or whatever? His stamina resets and you are literally in the exact same position.
I see "Just jab out" blah blah blah.... so the Kang players knows your going to do that and does Kangs 7 frame jab and gets 40% and you are in the same position.
Kang ignores footsies and can flying kick/MB and be plus 2 (not 1 like some claim) and follow it up with a b1 that beats jump forward or back/dash/neutral jump and armor moves that are not faster that 13 frames.
This is as close to a true block inf that you will see in this game. If things like this are allowed to exist the game will die. Not move/dash cancel on block in MKX should be more than plus 2. Period.
This game has no variability. No spacing. It is one dimensional and boring.
This game reminds me of a high school girl fight where they just stand in front of each other and swing as fast as they can. It laughable.
There is only one explanation for things like this to exist. I mean NRS can do math right? They know how broken it is. NRS is appeasing to the mid level players with MKX. They want any scrub to think they have a chance to win but giving them broken pressure and broken jump normals lol
