Sonic releases his first tutorial video in a while... I think his last were MKx days. He is using IJ2 but the concepts are fighting game universal and it is well known that footsies is a major focus on MK11.
I watched this during the weekend, really great stuff. That's why labbing with your main is important to figure out their fastest pokes and knowing all the options at your disposal to punish the opponent.
Listening to technical FG strategies like this always makes me freaking hype to start playing MK11.
While I agree, there’s footsies in every fg. Different aspects and mechanics change how you play it, but it always comes back to the basic “make them whiff and punish them” with lots of baiting and proper space management. Even in Dbfz,skill girls,kI etc has footsies not just Street Fighter
